	Think of it as another challenge they have to face. Now, if the entire order was obliterated to the extent that someone else had to make a New New Jedi Order, then I'd be more inclined to agree. But as it is, half the order has survived. They've been through worse and come back. -----signature----- Great midis have little midis Swimming round inside 'em And little midis have lesser midis And so ad infinitum.

	And, if you think about it, they're a lot stronger this time. Remember what happened to the Jedi the last few times someone tried to wipe them out? This time they're more resilient--as well as more grounded in their beliefs. We don't see as many going to despair or the dark side. Though, granted, we just might not have heard of anything yet. -----signature----- SPQR Vates Jυλιαδις Moribus antiquis res stat Romana virisque - Ennius Tu regere imperio populos, Romanæ, memento; hæ tibi erunt artes; pascisque imponere morem, parcere subjectis et debellare superbos - Virgil

	KOTOR II isn't set only a hundred years after one of the heros of the Saga just created the new Jedi Order. EDIT: Just to clarify, I'll point out again that I have no problem with the actual Legacy events. I'm speaking of a hypothetical scenario here. -----signature----- Great midis have little midis Swimming round inside 'em And little midis have lesser midis And so ad infinitum.

	Right, I follow. Hydronium is saying that if the entire Jedi Order was destroyed then it would be a problem, but seeing as a significant fraction of the Jedi are still around then the events of Legacy are just another problem for them to solve and not really "another purge." -----signature----- SPQR Vates Jυλιαδις Moribus antiquis res stat Romana virisque - Ennius Tu regere imperio populos, Romanæ, memento; hæ tibi erunt artes; pascisque imponere morem, parcere subjectis et debellare superbos - Virgil

Indeed. Legacy 8 changed how things should be viewed with the comment by Veed that at least half of the Jedi were not on Ossus at the time of the massacre. These leaves the order in a heck of a lot better shape than it was when Order 66 was issued. It is somewhat telling, however, that Darth Krayt isn't really actively trying to root out any remaining Jedi strongholds and destroy the order completely. He is instead focusing on Roan Fel and later, Cade Skywalker. This shows that what is left of the Order doesn't seem like very much of a threat.

	The impression I've gotten is that while there are plenty of Jedi still around, they've generally been scattered to the four winds and no longer have any sort of centralized organization. There's no grand master or council to coordinate things, and pretty much all of them are on the run/in hiding from the Sith. That's why Cade is so potentially important. Wolf thinks Cade could rally the Jedi, but if Krayt gets him first he can kill two birds with one stone: He can potentially get himself "healed" and he can seemingly destroy any chance the Jedi have of regrouping and creating an effective (key word there) resistance to his rule. So far it seems like Roan Fel and his loyalists are the only thing that Krayt considers a genuine threat to his plans (aside from his own health problems).

Don't you think it's a little premature to tell? The Imperial era Purge lasted more than a decade and a good number of Jedi were still around as of even ANH. -----signature----- Pilot of the Emperor's Hammer TIE Corps www.tiecorps.org Golden Ewok™ Recipient x4; Trojan Ewok™ Recipient -Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero-

	As of Ossus, half the Jedi Order survived. Indicators are that the Order was somewhere in the thousands. As of Order 66, about two percent of the Jedi Order at it's pre-Clone Wars level survived. 200 out of 9000. By any measurement, it was a far more thorough and devastating purge initially. 200 versus probably 2000 is a huge difference. They aren't going to be in nearly as bad shape after seven years of persecution as the Jedi were after 20 of Palpatine's Inquisitorius either. I think it's a safe conclusion that the Jedi aren't hurting nearly as bad as they were in their two earlier purges. -----signature----- "Is there a captain's hat involved in this?"

	And yet the highest number they got on their "conclave" on Daluuj was 4 Jedi. Could it be that originally DH planned this 4th Jedi Purge - if one counts NJO as the third, with the Peace Brigade etc - to be extremely devastating, and now is backtracking from those plans? Of course, these 7 years could have been very bad for the surviving Jedi and their numbers could be now low for that reason. Also one can ask, did all the other Jedi that we did not see to escape from Ossus during the Massacre die? That of the half of the Jedi Order there were only a handful of survivors? -----signature----- Recipient of the Confederation Ewok with "Rebel Yub"® Action!! Kill Ben Skywalker, the new Jar-Jar!

	No, half the Jedi weren't even on Ossus. The other half that was there was mostly killed, though I'm sure some made it out, like Shado and Wolf. As for the convocation, it was stated that it was dangerous for many Jedi to gather. Those four Jedi may have represented much larger groups of survivors, or they may have been the only ones willing to risk the Sith, or they may have been the only ones Sazen could find on short notice. -----signature----- "Is there a captain's hat involved in this?"

	Yes I know, I was just wondering about that half of the Order that was on Ossus, if those we saw to survive were all the Jedi and younglings that survived the Massacre there. -----signature----- Recipient of the Confederation Ewok with "Rebel Yub"® Action!! Kill Ben Skywalker, the new Jar-Jar!
