May The Invisible Hand Be With You - (Star Wars CK2-Style Quest)

Hey @Dr. Snark, have you just decided not to use the Side-Story and Apocrypha threadmark tabs?

Yes.

Mostly because we're in way too deep and moving over all of the omakes (canon and non-canon) would be unbelievably tedious and time-consuming.

I'm happy they're there, but they were added waaay too late to help me with my "problems."

Too bad the quest doesn't have a mod who participates who would be willing to do it for you, huh? :p
 
Speaking of unbelievably time-consuming...

Back in February I set up three 'Index' posts with links to every omake, whether Canon Non-Story, Currently Non-Canon, or just Non-Canon.
Unfortunately, back in early July I started my own quest, which has taken over most of my time and attention. That means those Index posts haven't been updated since page 391 in this thread.

If any of you would like to go back through the thread and write up some of the omakes between then and now, it'd be much easier for me to update the Index. Division of labor would make this much more manageable -- one person might scan a few pages, write up any omakes, and leave the rest for others to pick up later.


A few things: @Dr. Snark threadmarks any 'Canon Non-Story' and 'Currently Non-Canon' omakes, and 'nests' them under their respective Index posts. That should be an easy way to find those omakes.

For 'Non-Canon'... no threadmarks makes it difficult. However, whenever I post an 'omake count', I always link to a) the last omake count post and b) every omake posted since that last one. Unless you want to trawl through the thread, clicking through those omake count posts should be a handy way to hunt down the Non-Canon omakes.


As far as formatting, each write-up should include:

Title [underlined, with link], by <Author>
<Category>: short description of omake​

For Categories:
  • 'Currently Non-Canon' omakes are always classified as 'Near Future'
  • 'Canon Non-Story' omakes may be 'Distant Past' (before the quest), 'Recent Past' (during the quest -- identify by Turn # if possible) and 'Info Post'
  • 'Non-Canon' omakes may be 'Distant Past', 'Recent Past', 'Near Future', 'Far Future', 'Alternate Universe' (including crossovers), and 'Unknown'

Anyway, back to your regularly scheduled chaos... :cool:
 
@Dr. Snark, looking through the thread for omakes, I found one that you kinda said was canon but didn't threadmark.
No title, by Pathos

You know, I just realised Ciaran has a potential card to play with Dooku that could prove extremely valuable in the right circumstances.

She can offer him control of the Dark Side of the Force.

Even fallen, a former Jedi Master like him won't be able to cast aside all his doubts about the insidiousness of the Dark.

Just a thought.

@Dr. Snark, can you clarify whether this is canon or not? It was the omake where Ahsoka and Thrawn play an early version of Yu-Gi-Oh/Duel Monsters...



EDIT: besides the above 'status unknown' omake, the Indexes are updated!

Many thanks to @Jakobstj -- and congrats on a well-earned omake bonus!

It appears that the Abyss Walkers Psych: Ciaran, More Messages from Ciaran, Origins III, and New Dress Code links, only have the "posts/#######/" part of the link.
No, "forums.sufficientvelocity.com/" part.
 
Hi, had a question: does the Republic use some propaganda pieces/posters/commercials to "inspire" their citizens/clones?
Cause this would really inspire them (curtesy of Abyss Agents):

First thought: That. Is. Awesome.

Propaganda is universal. They absolutely would have propaganda posters and images plastered everywhere.

However, Palpatine would know enough to seek to control it, either directly or indirectly through COMPNOR. Which means there is no chance there'd be propaganda posters glorifying the Jedi Order, unless it were centered on Anakin Skywalker.

OTOH, It's possible that they might make a piece that seems to glorify the Jedi, but which would be placed in a hotbed for pro-Separatist or pacifist support, to encourage that group to see the Jedi as the enemy and/or as warmongers. That'd require a bit more finesse, but it's certainly within Palpatine's abilities.
 
first of all that shield looks super handy why dont jedi use it more often, and second of all yeah ani was called like the hero of the rebuplic, so its hard not to glorify him i think.
