    Leth designed the World Devastators and the Galaxy Gun. He's in Dark Empire II.

    On their own I don't think they would have done much without the support of a government. So it would depend on the tasks and objectives, as well as the resources given by it.

    Hm. Another question. It ties in with the one I asked before.

    How would the war have gone differently if Palpatine had cloned himself again?

    You mean if he came back during the war?

    Okay let's imagine it's 27 ABY and Palpatine somehow escapes from Chaos again. He has another clone body prepared in the deep core. He is resurrected. He would find the empire weak and at peace with the GA and the "far outsiders" controlling nearly half the Galaxy.

    No doubt he could unleash force storms and other raw displays of power but Palpatine even thrice resurrected Palpatine isn't stupid. He wouldn't want to alert the Jedi or the Vong of his returned presence. He would bide his time. He would probably learn of Krayt at some point as well as Lumiya.

    Worst case scenario is Palpatine takes over the remnant(Palleaon is sure to end up dead) and goes on a mad conquest spree while trying to replicate both the technology and success he had in 9-10 ABY. The Vong will be alerted by this and will most definitely try to remove him. Palpatine I think would be interested in the Vong-their lack of connection to the force, Vongsense, he might even be able to sense Onimi though.

    The Jedi will be...terrified. And the GA...petrified. They will most definitely try to kill him again.

    Interesting.

    I think Palpatine would have built a superweapon like the Galaxy Gun and stationed it in some no-name system somewhere well away from his home base. He would then use it to take out major Vong worldships, flotillas,etc. He would probably frequently move it from system to system to avoid having the New Republic discover him.

    I think Palpatine would have waited until near the end of the war. Until the New Republic was practically broken and the Vong had also wasted much of their strenght. Then he would swoop in and defeat the Vong with a direct attack on their command structure. Maybe even blowing up Corusant in the process.
    Afterwards he would present himself as a savior who only ever wanted to protect the galaxy against the Vong and blame the billions of dead on the Rebellion greatly destabilizing the galaxy.
    Should he himself be just to hated by the galaxy's citizens he also could stay in the shadows and have someone else, like Pealleon be a puppet emperor in his place.

    Resurrected Palpatine no longer had patience for politics and intrigue he would impose his will directly and would try to destroy everybody that got in his way.

    Maybe this resurection would be different.
    I think it was just bad in DE that they took away Palpatines greatest strenghts and replaced them with Deus Ex Machina Powers he never displayed elsewere. It made him feel more like a generic doomsday villian than Palpatine.

    I think he would have tried to keep Coruscant intact as much as possible, so when he took over he could rule from there. Having the galactic capital taken over by Palpatine would greatly demoralize the New Republic and make it easier for him to defeat the New Republic on other fronts.

    At the same time coming back from the SW equivalent of Hell will change your personality somewhat.

    Apparently not for too long: He had reached Byss and inhabited a clone body by 5 ABY (according to Dark Empire Sourcebook)

    Oddly, the endnotes to Dark Empire itself implied that he'd gone from the DS2 to Byss in a matter of moments - with the WEG book's introduction of Jeng Droga, being a retcon.

    The Cloning of Absolute Malevolence:

    When Darth Vader hurled Emperor Palpatine to his doom, it seemed, to Luke and the Alliance, that the rule of Darkness had come to an end. But in that moment when flashing blue energy rushed from exploded flesh, the Emperor entered a bodiless transitional state. As conscious Dark Force he was translated across the Galaxy ...

    In the clone labs on Bass, a young Emperor opened his eyes ... and laughed. He had won. The Empire would survive.

    I don't like that-he should have spent some time in Chaos in fact he says he did-"madness and loneliness without end".

    Chaos may be "year inside, hour outside" - being in it feels like a long time, but from the outside, not so much.

    Looking at the list of battles for the Yuuzhan Vong War on the Wook makes me wish we got more stories expanding the era. A lot of them were mentioned in maps in the Essential Atlas but nothing else.

    A lot of world's and such were not developed until later even in the TCW years-so the authors of TEA and TEGW had to include them.

    As I have previously stated this era begs for expansion.

    Making a list of those battles and only at the start of 26 ABY. It's a long list.
    Various eras of planets. Does give me some ideas for fan-fiction stories to write though.

    So am I alone in finding the Vong religion's creation story beautiful and aesthetically pleasing? Yun Yuuzhan striding down a giant rainbow cutting apart of himself away making every star and world and concluding by creating the Vong? The creator god sacrifices his own body for the universe and his children cutting himself into it all.

    It seems rather haunting yet beautiful at the same time.

    So Riders in the Void issue 38 from the original Marvel comics could be the first mention of the Yuuzhan Vong and the Cremlevian War.
    And wasn't there another issue where Chewie hurled something away from the group that was ret-conned to be something Yuuzhan Vong technology related? But am drawing a blank on it
