:D What a great answer! I'd like to add my thanks for the work that you do here also. It's much appreciated.

With regard to Swilja Fenn and the female Twi'lek in Union, I thought I'd add another bit of info. At the mo, Swilja's skin color has not been identified. However, there is a Twi'lek "Clan Fenn", which is made up of "white" Twi'leks. I don;t think it's confirmed Swilja is a member of this clan, but it's certainly possible and would be a good indication of her skin color.

so i'm assuming the film only continuity only consists of tpm through rotj, and not the clone wars movie and other possible future sw films?
Correct. I'll be treating the material from The Clone Wars theatrical release as "Television Canon".

Is that true that the Force-users encountered in the service of the Empire in the extension of EAW, Forces of Corrumption, are named Force Adepts ?
A Force adept can be used to describe anyone trained in a Force tradition different than that of the Jedi, so these guys would certainly fall under that category.

Taste, do you enjoy being the Holocron Keeper?
I consider it to be the very definition of "dream job". Anyone who knew me 10 years ago when I was a tester at LucasArts would be able to attest to that. Upon graduating from college, I was asked where I saw myself in 5 years and I gave what I thought was a completely wild and unattainable answer which turned out to be not all too different from what I do now (I've even got the video to prove it!) It is indeed a lifelong passion.

Mister Chee, only you could endure our online debates about the exact number of clone troopers capable of dancing on the head of a pin. And only you could provide a definitive answer.

Thank you for tolerating (and often expanding) our fastidious analysis of this Galaxy. If we didn't have access to some official opinion, we'd still be arguing about the length of Super Star Destroyers! (Excuse me: the length of _Executor_-class Star Dreadnoughts. ;))

Just wanted to take a second and say "thank you" for your endless patience with us and the work you do.

Aye. Thank you, Tasty. :-)

I don't envy your position....

You alone among us. :-p

though I wouldn't mind sneaking a peek at the Holocron for a day :)

Start saving up for Celebration V. We got a peek at a version of it at Celebration IV.

No. The ages don't match up.

Tasty

Should the Lando Calrissian (Mindharp, Flamewind, Starcave) and Han Solo (Stars' End, Revenge, Lost Legacy)Trilogies be considered S-canon per their age, or do they qualify for C-canon?

If this has been asked and answered before, anyone else is free to chime in. I seem to recall from somewhere that Han Solo at Stars' End was C-canon, but I need to verify.

I want to know if Officer Evax of the ISB is somewhere visible in 'TPM'. He isn't one of the ISB Officers that pass the Lift Tube. Is he the ISB Officer who walks way briefly in the beginning of the scene?

Exactly. I meant the male Twi'lek at the ceremony. But anyhow thanks for the answer, Tasty! ;)

I have a new question. Is there any name for one of Farfallas Knights from Jedi vs. Sith? We do only know Lirondo but I would like to hear/read a name for the winged envoy first delivering Farfalla's message, later Hoth's. And maybe there is a name for this species more specific than "Sephy" as you stated earlier.

Thanks for your time!

*Please answer my question regarding the unnamed
Twi'lek Jedi in Union and the EGF - has this one a
definite name?*
Swilja Fenn is probably in Union, but the one
in EGF looks like a male Twi'lek. There's a couple
of other shady-looking Jedi in that picture who also
don't have names

Its cool to get that "almost" confirmation of Swilja being the female Twi'lek in Union. However, there is also a male Twi'lek that appears in Union, which I think is the one PiccoloKenobi is reffering to. I think PiccoloKenobi would like to know if this is the same guy as appears in the EGttF. A picture of the Twi'lek in Union can be seen here.

In CW chap.22, Ani & Obi are given new orders: Nelvaan. If we take away the scene in the tent, we only see that they get new orders: to go to Ruhe as seen in Brothers in Arms. At the end of this comic they discover that Gunray is on Cato Neimoidia which leads into LoE.
(I know my English is terrible.;) )
Thoughts?

Dear Tasty,
I know you're very busy at the moment with the new Clone Wars series but I have got a question about the old one.
In Clone Wars chap.22 we see a battle on this rain planet. In LoE we discover that before they fought on Cato Neimoidia, Anakin and Obi-Wan were on Neimoidia, Deko & Koru Neimoidia. And now my idea: Could you retcon the rain planet into being Koru Neimoidia? LoE states there was a siege on this planet and in CW we see ''this'' siege.
Here we go:
31 ABG Obsession
34 ABG Battle of Neimoidia
Battle of Deko Neimoidia
35 ABG Battle of Koru Neimoidia / Clone Wars chap.22 (rain planet)
Brothers in Arms
Labyrinth of Evil

Tasty:

In the WEG RPG adventure supplement "The Kathol Rift," the Aing-Tii attempt to steal a device called the Codex from the player characters. Depending on how the players play the adventure, the Aing-Tii may recover the Codex (which will allow them to contact "Those Who Dwell Beyond the Veil") or else the player characters steal it back.

The Essential Guide to the Force hints at them not getting the Codex, as they are still looking for an answer from "Those Who Dwell Beyond the Veil."

Anyway, I was wondering which of the outcomes can be considered canonical.

Motti is the officer Vader chokes in the film. In the novelisation Tagge is in place of Motti in that scene and Motti is replaced by another officer named Romodi. Read something about that here:
