Ahahaha!

That was pretty epic.

But yeah I lold in rl.

Hey, I don't know if Neph is as stupid as the guys who started the premise of the Boxer Rebellion (I believe that was it.... Too late to look it up, need pdfs......)

Ohhhh yes, our Kung Fu will protect us from the British musket fire at point blank range! And their bayonets! Ohhhh yes.

If anime has taught me anything, its that kung fu >>> muskets.

This is true even in M&B: Napoleanic Wars.

Yeah muskets suck.

Btw, I'm using the on-screen keyboard atm, so I can't do big posts for a while.

OMFG. Youtube, you win the internets: This is what Dave sees in his nightmares.

You're behind the internetz timez, Janus.

That goes without saying.

The Son of Suns trilogy? GideonZamp introduced us to that one a few years ago. It's better than any of the actual novels in the EU.

Gideon was a fan of Publius; I proposed Blank as an alternative.

Hugs to you then. It's a good alternative.

From the thread Darth Vader vs. Darth Nihilus, page 6, dated November 2008 (can't link yet):

I read a really great story called Into the Storm about an alternate universe where Luke was captured by Vader at the end of ESB and brought before the Emperor.

Gideon
Be warned: Unlike Publius, this story has noticeable grammatical errors and lacks his polish. But the dialogue is, in some places, cleverer, particularly the wordplay between the Emperor and Luke. Vader, Han, Leia, and Mara are all prominent characters, but Luke and Palpatine take centerstage. This story receives dozens of reviews from other amateur authors giving accolades for Blank101's portrayal of Palpatine. I have to agree -- it's far more perverse and chilling than Publius's. But at the same time, it fashions Luke into a formidable enemy.

Edit: Have you read it, Red?

Zampano
I have now. I thought it was very good. I didn't like how Leia/Han were just sort of dropped before the climax. There should have been some closure in that story arc. Aside from the errors (of which there were many) It rivals TOW as a feat of Fanfiction.

Gideon mentions it first and suggests it as an alternative to Publius. You do provide the link first, though.

I'm curious. What's TOW?

Test of Wills by Publius: essentially, Dark Empire novelized.

Ah, sounds interesting. Might have to give it a read.

It's terribly written.

So... I was under the impression that Janus had permission to create a sock?
