Hello Everyone!
It’s been a busy few weeks around the site. We finished up our look at the Imperial Intelligence and how it breaks down. If people are interested I can do that same with the Rebel Alliance and New Republic though that area is more gray since we have never had a really good look at how the New Republic Government was set up, just small details.
Other items of note, we are coming up on Star Wars Day! Lucasfilm usually has a lot of updates to release that day and we will get the first episode of The Bad Batch. I have already prepped The Bad Batch Source Guide and I’ll be updating it weekly the Saturday and Sunday after the episode airs. I have already started to add a few items based off the trailers that we saw but I’ll do a full episode breakdown and all the templates seen in each episode. As always if a character later in the season displays a new skill we will update the template. If a character has grown in skills I’ll produce a new template showing their growth as a character through their campaigns. This is usually reserved for main characters like Luke Skywalker or Ahsoka Tano where we follow their improvement throughout the story.
Another bit of news, you might see some posts regarding The High Republic and The Clone Wars from Oliver Queen coming soon. He and I are collaborating on updating everything from The Clone Wars TV series, books, and comics. It is a huge undertaking but over the next several months you will see that published. I have started to publish episode templates for the original Clone Wars shorts and will be knocking those out over the next few weeks with The Clone Wars Series taking focus in June 2021.
A few things from around the Star Wars Universe that are coming. The Obi-Wan Kenobi Series is preparing to start filming and we are getting news on cast members. Andor is scheduled to begin filming in Cleveleys, Lancashire starting next week. In gaming news, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is getting some love with a remake and possibly a new combat system. Perhaps they will go Star Wars D6 rather than the D20 system? It remains to be seen. Finally, expect a big announcement on May 4th about Lego Star Wars sets and perhaps an update on the upcoming Lego Star Wars Game that has been delayed.
That’s this months recap. Comment below and let us know what templates you are looking for or what you are excited about. Until then, May The Force Be With You!
