    They might recruit him to the rebellion, but i don't think it will be a part of the main cast.

    Are Geonosian drones even sentient?

    I'd say so since that would imply that drones and Poggle were seprerate species.

    Well that explains where the queen in the Vader comics comes from.

    Overall a pretty cool episode. With some interesting new Imperial characters that I'm sure we'll be seeing more of shortly. For a moment I thought the captain might have been Sloane and got really excited, but I'm afraid not.

    Overall great. Cool new troopers, a deeper look at the different beliefs composing the rebellion, really nice visuals. I love the "sand gets everywhere reference." Nice that they can laugh with us at how terrible that line was. Kinda disappointed that Saw got all cushy at the end but at least they showed his dark side.

    Captain Brunson apparently. Sloane's a Vice Admiral, not a captain.

    A pretty tense double bill to kick off the second half of the season which ties in to Rogue One, although it was fairly obvious that the
    clues to the Death Star would either not be understood by the Ghost's crew or be lost by the end of the episode.
    The title and setting reminded me a little of John Carpenter's Ghosts of Mars, although we didn't get Ice Cube to help save the day this time.

    Saw
    doesn't appear to have cybernetic legs in these episodes - presumably he'll suffer those injuries in later episodes, which maybe also explains why the character is not quite so extreme at the end of these episodes compared to the movie.

    I liked it! Even more than I expected!
    I like how they portrayed Saw, even if his change at the end seemed bit too rushed, but because of Steela didn't feel too ooc. I absolutely adored how finally we got the whole crew having their moment of shine - Hera being awesome with her crazy piloting skills, Kanan and the bridge, oh boi that scene oh! Ezra connecting with the bug, Sabine and jetpack and even Zeb helping all along, shooting and setting communications. Rex being the wise one who understood much more.
    Saw was an extremist and the scene with electroshocking was I must admit quite disturbing.
    I like they didn't learn anything useful about the DS, it's much too early for this, and that the mission was kind of failure.
    Overall a very good episode.

    The queen in Darth Vader #4 has been confirmed to be Karina the Great from TCW, so the queen in this episode is a new queen

    I really liked this episode! The Rocket Troopers could've been a bit more competent though, then again they are just flying stormtroopers. But they were slightly more competent than the troopers we usually see in the show. Also loved that Captain as a villian. Don't no why some people think this is Sloane though. Sloane is a Vice admiral at this point and she wears a grey uniform. I wonder why that officer that reported to her had more rank badges though. His rank insignia indicated that he is at least a Commodore or Rear Admiral. Maybe it's because she is a captain within a different branch of the military.
    Edit:Apperantly Thrawn is in the next episode:D
