Sweeeet.. what is the new Zahn book about? And is that Thrawn in the background or another Chiss?

Hah! Yes! Another essential guide for me to blow more money on!

Another Chiss, I'd imagine. He's not wearing the uniform of an Imperial Grand Admiral.

I can't make up my mind whether I like Jade Shadow or not. It looks a bit like a speed boat crossed with a 747.
Kinda destroyed my mental image of it.

Pretty sweet.

Well hopefully the new guide to vehicles will have things mostly right...still nice pics.

Seeing by that book, obviously the GFFA beats the YV in the NJO.

Awesome the NEGTVV has sublight and hyperdrive speed charts! Now I have to get it.

I saw that booth at Comicon. It was awesome. I have a thread about it in the Justice League Usergroup.

When's it ment to be coming out?

That speed chart is very interesting. Can I see it right that the Acclamator (Republic assault ship) is far faster in sublight than the corellian corvette (Rebel blockade runner)?

The vong Cap ship just looks way to strange to me...

Hmm. Intresting to note the "Unifying Force" cover. Anyone speculating that the two men pictured are both Jacen and Anakin? Which would confirm a lot of people's guesses that Anakin is brought back by some deus ex machina....

Thats not a true Capship, I believe thats a worldship, sort of like the mothership in ID4 in terms of appearance and function.

Ossus started a pretty long thread concerning the subject some weeks ago. I don't remember what the general concensus except that there was also a pretty long thread hijack comitted in the process...

It's pre-NJO, post-VoTF

Don't get me wrong, Zahn can write some excellent (albiet minimalist) stuff for the EU, but do all of his works have to be related to his earlier books? Thrawn this, Chiss that. Even the short story he's doing for SWI has to do with Spaarti. Diversify man!

EDIT: I AM STUPID. See below.

Wow, you mean that Thrawn's a real person!!

I think you mean Zahn, Gnome...

Ahhh shit, did I actually say that!? NERDNESS REACHED CRITICAL MASS!!! I can't believe I said that. Well, it just proves my point! He writes so much bout the guy you start confusing the two....

Illuminatus Primus · Post by **Illuminatus Primus** » 2003-07-23 10:29pm

You're right, and its part of why Zahn irritates me. He started off thinking he owned the whole EU, and now has tried to think he owns a specific section of it.

Do you guys know when Zahn's book, Unifying Force and the New Essential Guide to vehicles is coming out? Those books look very interesting.
