RoS - Visual Dictionary

This book anwers a question I've had for years. I always wondered how Boba Fett and other Mandalorians were able to control their jetpack movements and buoyancy issues and this book kinda anwers it well sorta, it tell hows the Sith Jet Troopers armor works so I imagine Mandalorian armor works in a similar manner.

The armor uses body movement, muscle contractions, and eye positioning tracking to control thrust direction and power modulation.

Also the armor has Repulsor buoyanancy antiweights for stabilization.

facepalm

but it doesn't make sense, the destructuon of the starkiller base wasn't an event nearly as relevant as the battle of Yavin. It's like as if in the real world, instead of choosing the date of birth of one the most influential person in human history as a mark to divide time, they chose my birthday. No one cares for Starkiller base, really

I just realized that one of the geographical features listed on Exegol is called the "Sadow escarpment".

I'd assume that is a reference to Naga Sadow -- so he is possibly another ancient Sith Lord who has been canonized in this.

Oh man, the Knights of Ren are so cool and important! I love how they hyped them up for the past years. I can't wait to learn more!

I'd beg to differ. The Death Star blew up one planet, Alderaan, and damaged another, Jedha. Neither was a major key player in the galaxy. Starkiller Base blew up the capital of the Galactic Republic, wiping out most of the Republic's fleet and pretty much all of the government in one fell swoop. I'd say the Starkiller Incident had a much larger impact on the galaxy than the Battle of Yavin.

**** that shit. **** the sequels. **** Disney. And **** BSI/ASI.

Yeah Death Stars were shit. One planet at a time? Pfft.

Disney does everything bigger and better.

We’d better not wonder where or how the FO collected the funds to build a new and more powerful super weapon, when it controlled only a fraction of the territory the Empire once held

The changing of the year metric makes perfect sense when you consider that it was done for the same reason ABY/BBY exists in the first place.

So adjusting the timescale to reflect the years before and after the "Starkiller Incident" does make sense from that perspective.

Well yeah given it had to revamp the Galaxy back to where they were at the time of ANH.

It's stupid. The Battle of Yavin was chosen to keep things simple. It makes the original Star Wars movie year 0. It was chosen entirely for OOU reasons and that's fine. In universe, the Battle of Endor makes more sense than either of the two. As it is, BSI/ASI is just them shoving the sequels down our throats as well as adding confusion to an otherwise very simple thing. There is no reason to introduce a new calendar system that has worked for decades.

It exists for literally the same reason ABY/BBY exists lol. The former timline was created to date Canon around a significantnt event. This is doing the same thing, a convenient way to frame events around the new major event.

If they made a show 5 years after RoS for example, why
would Disney date it as 44 ABY or whatever the **** instead of 6 AHC?

Sure. Why not? Like I said, adding a new dating system just confuses thing.

1% of the fanbase is even aware of the lore timeline, people like you and I. And it doesn't confuse us because if you're autistic enough to be aware of ABY/BBY and AHC/BHC then you're autistic enough to understand the distinction.

Also, when Rey and Kylo fight in close proximity(as they did against the Praetorian Guards in TLJ), their abilities "mirror and amplify each other... Strengthening their force bond with every passing moment."

mmm

So that must be why she didnt need training to overpower him in TFA.
