Also, interestingly enough, one of them was actually a Fett clone.

OMG....I wanna read it!

I honestly hope the RG along with Stormtroopers in general get actual feats and the like, like they did in Legends. It makes it much more impressive when characters actually beat them, instead of them just being like regular mooks in comics who just show up and get beaten.

I read in one review, that the book was crap. Not that I care much - I haven't read a single SW book.

Ah, Interesting, reading your link, and the first page claims Vader's injuries have actually strengthened his connection the force instead of hindering it. That's completely contradictory to Lucas's stance that Disney may have taken here.

Though I assume his potential has still been severely depleted, simply because otherwise the whole OT wouldn't make much sense narratively speaking.

Actually, I can't remember exactly when or where Sidious said this, but he said he believed Vader's inability to reach his full-potential had nothing to do with his bodily losses in his fight versus Kenobi, and that it was more likely due to his psychological limitations and his unstable state of mind after Padme's loss and his actions against the Jedi.

I hear LotS is really good. Probably gonna buy it today.

Well, I just finished Rise of Darth Vader and if memory serves me right Sheev did say something along those lines.

Sidious says a lot of stuff in RoDV, that may be among them tbh.

Then again, Sheev isn't always right.

Yeah, Palpatine's foresight is amazing in the book. Too bad he couldn't foresee himself getting killed by Vader though 👆

Meh, it's ok. Not one of Kemp's better efforts.

Its pretty hard to top a book like Deceived, But Malgus >> Sidious so it's all good

Is it out in soft cover or hard?

nowhere near as funny as the Super Soakers comment tbh cart.

Hardcover I think. I bought the digital version tho.

Also Zapan87/Nargaroth I added some of the scans Ares mentioned into the comments of your respect thread.

Vader >>>>>>>>>>>> Revan 4 lyfe.

Ironically, I found it kinda disappointing that Vader and Sidious were that powerful. I was hoping they would keep their power levels more in line with the moves and not get crazy TFU-style feats.

Thank you, I'm looking forward to them. I also remember him blowing apart two Lyleks, but I think I'll wait for other quotes.

So many feats in that Lyek section, The Emperor downs massive trees with just a gesture, collapses a ceiling crushing multiple Lyeks, and Vader creates a barrier that repels multiple grenade blasts.

Dayuumm

*Scanned the feat you were mentioning.

"Vader extended a gloved hand and loosed a blast of power that blew apart two of the lyleks rushing toward him, showering those behind with gore and chunks of carapace."

Probably the most impressive thing for Vader is that he is more than able to keep up with the Lylek Queen which was quick enough to tag Sidious.

I found another where he unleashes a force wave, smashes their exoskeletons, brings down crystal stalagmites, and blasts multiple Lyeks back.

Yeah, I'll scan that too. Vader should be more or less on or close to Sidious's speed now.
