As for my take on in, very disappointed in Galaxy's Edge/Black Spire & Inferno squad. Also felt Wild Space was mediocre. Starting to develop an opinion that more recent SW novels are of lesser quality & that only older novels are worth reading/listening to.

Ok, let me explain where I’m coming from.
The Jedi way is to forsake all forms of personal desires and wishes in favour of following the guiding will of the force. ‘The Jedi Path’ specifically states ‘the force has a plan for the galaxy’, Qui Gon told young Anakin that the Jedi quite their mind to hear the will of the force, the novel of revenge of the sith has Obi Wan tell Anakin that wanting to hold onto someone/something is to prioritise selfish desires ahead of the will of the force, which he says is not the Jedi way. All in all, I think we can agree the Jedi way is to follow the will of the force- ie. destiny- and such a way of life is how the Jedi devote themselves to the light side of the force.
The Sith, as we all know, is the opposite. They do not serve the will of the force- they serve their own will, even to the detriment of others. When Starkiller was asked if he could sense the future, he responded ’I’ve never been a Jedi before’ which implies Sith can’t sense the future as Jedi can. This would make sense- to sense the future, future events must already be predestined, which in Star Wars is another way of saying the force has already planned what’s going to happen. Having the force, or for that matter anyone/thing else, decide what the future holds rather than deciding for oneself goes against everything the Sith stand for.
I should also point out that all of this seems to suggest that fatalism is the way of the light side, while free will and self determination is the way of the dark side, but I digress. The point is, surely any use of the force which changes someone’s fate, such as using the power of the force to save someone from a death that actions not powered by the force cannot prevent, is to change the fate pre destined for that person, thereby going against the will of the force, which is the way of the dark side.

Star Wars The Clone Wars: Lightsaber duels (Wii)

Besalisks & Harches are too big & bulky for darting around a battlefield. Karkarodons are unmatched in water, but I’m not convinced they’d be agile on land with those webbed feet. A Togruta army is just asking for the enemy to develop sonic weapons that hurt their montrals. No particular pros or cons for Duros, but a Nautolan can clearly function well on land & can move & fight underwater with no difficulty. Nautolans for me.

@Darth Cumulonimbus Absolutely not. That would have left the torture equipment intact to be used on other unfortunate victims. That would be even worse- revenge that comes at the expense of the suffering of others

The picture for no- where's that from? Does it have a symbolic reference to this question?

I liked Psi Ops. Favourite moment on the catwalk between the skyscrapers- mind controlling one guard to blow away his mates with a shotgun, then making him leap towards the ledge and leaving his body just as he starts falling

Most likely though, when the originals were created it saved money on props to have every member of the rebellion and empire human, and while they added some non human rebels by ROTJ, it was glaringly obvious in retrospect, so an explanation was created to explain why, in a galaxy of over a hundred species, does the empire only recruit from one species
