Re: The Board Members You Miss Thread
Einhander is still with us, he posts regularly on the SDN Discord. Apparently he was banned some time ago for pissing off Thanas with a badly-timed wrestling gif.
Havok also passed some time ago, unfortunately.

Re: Prince Andrew to no longer use 'His Royal Highness' as Queen removes his military roles

Re: Book of Boba Fett (spoilers)
Tattooine, on the galactic scale, is basically the backwater town that got settled for [reasons], went broke, and ended up being a convenient location for criminals to do business out of. That's how I read it anyway. In that context, it absolutely has a tiny population. Mos Espa was where they went ...

Re: Book of Boba Fett (spoilers)
We can probably assume the Sheriff did some repair work on the armour, since it had functioning parts when he was using it. Star Wars electronics/technology seems to be reasonably easy for just about anybody to repair/jury-rig. Perhaps even the Jawas when they pulled it off him. Past that, I don't h...

Re: Book of Boba Fett (spoilers)
My biggest complaint about the Vespa chase was how slow it felt. That leads into two questions: - How fast would people realistically go if they were in a chase in streets that tight ? - Could a reliance on practical effects, along with rules about keeping people safe while filming, be responsible ...

Re: Should I try out Star Trek Online?
The issue for me is mostly just how little flavor there is to each faction. While there's some faction-specific stuff, it's almost all early-level stuff. After that point, everything is the same. Including that fucking Nimbus stage where you have to run about the stupid planet from Star Trek V for h...

Presumably it is charged with attacking either the Nashtaris directly... or maybe they're interested in the Skothian present on-world. Or they're running late for ...
