    I hope the back cover shows somebody respawning from a command post.

    Some people just really like stories about maintenance droids.

    huh

    I thought they were all men. I can see the guy at the top looks kinda feminine, but still looks more like a man to me.

    edit: Maybe the Besalisk is a female though, we don't really know what female Besalisks look like

    It's a male Besalisk. His name is Gadren and he appears in the preview pages included in Dark Disciple. I'm assuming the guy upfront is Hazram Namir, who was the POV for said preview.

    One of them might be the jump trooper. since we can't see their face. But yeah, those other two are pretty clearly women.

    Anyone know who the artist is? The style looks kinda familiar, but TOS neglected to mention their name.

    You're right! Looks great.

    I haven't got around reading the excerpt yet. What's your first general impressions?

    whooooh I didn't even think of that. Er, the Besalisks-in-Battlefront. Diversity Alliance don't come a-running![face_worried]

    ...although this also makes me think of the logical next step: DEX FRUIT NINJA!

    I honestly can't see it. The reddish-haired one up top looks a bit feminine but even then it looks more like a man to me. Or maybe an ugly woman? I dunno.

    I'll take you're word for it though, I wouldn't say they have features that preclude them from being women.

    99% sure the guy at the front is a bloke

    The SSD's engines have been relegated to being the galaxy's largest tanning lamps.

    But of you look in the background, through the smoke on the right, you can see the outline of an SSD.

    They do, but that's what happens when the Empire is falling apart. I'm hoping there are more than one in that battle. With the way it's being built up, I hope the fleets are truly massive. I'm excited to learn more about the battle.

    I was like "Isn't that just a normal SD?"

    I'm awfully psyched for this. The idea of the Rebels throwing everything and the kitchen sink at the Empire for nine months and then being slowly, inexorably, beautifully driven back and this company has decided that this is where the line is arbitrarily drawn is just... Epic.
