I would assume Fel didn't throw hands with Krayt because The One had the Empire in their pocket well before Krayt officially took the throne. How smart would it have been to make a move on Krayt and The One with a handful of IK's? The goal is to stay alive to retake the throne, not go out in a blaze of glory. That's my guess.

Or maybe Fel knew that he couldn't hold Krayt's armored jockstrap, so he opted for plan B. For some it's, live to fight another die, for me... if yer badass enough, and you know it, then you show up and fight. If yer not, then I guess you have to send somebody else to die for you.

Who am I to question the man's self-preservation skills?
I'm just sayin I don't like the way Fel handled his business there.

Krayt>Nat or Kruhhk>=Roan Fel>Master Sazen>Cade>Shado>Draco/Sia
Krayt is a fully trained Jedi Knight,AND a fully trained Sith Lord!!! = ultimate bad ass
Nat Skywalker may have been the second most powerful Jedi behind his brother (sorry but he MUST BE) especially if they MAY HAVE HAD THE SAME TRAINING (being older of the two)..possible he could have been trained by Luke?
Kruhhk just cause the Hat rules..and he fought in the Clone War..any Jedi to survive that, see Krayt for highly motivating adjective..
Roan Fel (if indeed seed of Jaina and Jagged) then he is equal or just a lil bit less stronger than Nat or Kruhhk..To be Emperor,he had to be a strong leader and warrior otherwise the Moffs would have tried other means to sabbotage him..(meaning Sith was the break glass in case all fails)
There you have it!! btw..since Legacy revolves around Cade and he went right thru Krayt's hands..and is the heir to the Skywalker (hero) throne,then he should be second.
why..cause Shado knows!!

pfft Roan knew he was outnumbered, even Anakin has retreated from situations, and he's never faced multiple Sith Lords with only a handful of Knights backing him up.
I don't want to see my characters who are supposed to be badass act stupid, sorry.
the IK's there were Mohrgan and three others, Krayt whipped through the three Sidious vs Mace's posse style, issue 8 implies to me Mohrgan survived a bit longer, but by that point he was up against the 4 top Sith Lords by himself... even a Skywalker wouldn't like those chances....
plus Roan didn't know how many of the Sith were coming either, sure if Mohrgan and he are Skywalkers then two Skywalkers might have been able to fight of Krayt, Maladi, Wyyrlok and Nihl togethor.... maybe (and is that a risk you wanna take when you have an entire Empire as your responsibility?), had there been more even together, two Skywalkers couldn't have hold off those Sith (remember these guys aren't the run of the mill cannon fodder we see Kol take out on Ossus, they are the heads of the Order)
Sure Cade took on several but lets be honest Krayt didn't join that fight till after Cade had taken down Talon and Nihl..... so it was really a 2 to 1 fight at most, which didn't last long since Cade managed to take Talon out really early with a lucky shot.
And if Mohrgan isn't a Skywalker (if he's a second cousin - however until it states something like that I think its safe to assume he's first cousin) and Roan is, then it would only be one Skywalker vs the four top Sith.

I’d be very surprised if Fel isn’t a descendent of the Skywalker clan, namely Jaina Solo. However I also reckon the Skywalker blood has been thinned by numerous non-force sensitives over the generations.
My guess is that Fel is strong, but not uber strong.
As far as his training goes he appears to be on the same level as a Jedi master, although his talents lie in the martial areas (as do all the imperial knights).

Honestly I'm not impressed with any of the Fel's in the force department.
Especially if they turn out to be descendants of Jaina. I'm still hoping they aren't.
I don't buy the whole idea that they'd be more watered down since Roan would be the same number of Generations removed from Anakin as Nat and Kol if Jag is the first emperor. (And Nat and Kol aren't Ben's sons but Grandsons)

I've heard a legend that his "badassery knows no bounds."
Although in all honesty, I tend to agree with most of the people here. He's powerful, but his Emperor-status probably keeps him too busy from honing his skills to their max.

I don't see why people should look down on Fel because he didn't pull a Ganner when the Sith came for his throne. Wars not make one great....and Jedi does not crave excitement, adventure etc.
Fel made a choice for the fate of the entire galaxy. Since he didn't know there were any other Skywalkers out there, he was all that was standing between the galaxy and a Sith dictatorship. Why on earth would he take on a fight he knows he can't win just to prove how tough he is? That is the ultimate example of macho-pigheadedness and anyone with that much testosterone probably can't see any farther than their own nose. He made a decision, the only decision, that could save the galaxy. A bit more important than proving just how "Bad ass" you are....
Fel is a Warrior King...but I think we are forgetting the King part.

Isn't it kinda early to assume Roan is a Skywalker?

When would be the right time to discuss it? It's pretty much looking like a fact.

Oh I agree, but until Zekk is proven dead, the future is hazy on this subject.

I am quite sure that he is strong, maybe not too much in terms of brute stenghts but more with his cunningness.

I've had this thought, Roan seems to be an excellent tactician, but we've yet to see his true talents with the Force, since he's only fought one Sith that we know of...perhaps they could have him face Cade or Nihl at some point to show off is actually capabilities in the Force.
