Is this really necessary? Kuralyov 19:22, 30 Oct 2005 (UTC)

It's a canon event, according to the OS. So, yes. VT-16 19:56, 30 Oct 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, I know it's a canon event, but it's better served in the article on Apailana than in its own article. Valorum's assassination is in his article, not its own; Vidar Kim's assassination is in his article, not its own; Veruna's assassination is in his article, not another one. Why is this any different? Kuralyov 22:03, 30 Oct 2005 (UTC)
  - Well, for one reason, it's an actual battle. It involves two sides fighting on Naboo. Therefore, it shouldn't be merged. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 22:45, 30 Oct 2005 (UTC)
    - And besides, all events should have their own page, along with the events in the character page, for easier linking. Xilentshadow900 22:53, 30 Oct 2005 (UTC)
      - Also, one more thing: For Valorum's, Kim's, and Veruna's assassinations, you didn't have two sides fighting beforehand. They were just killed, with no battle. Cmdr. J. Nebulax 22:58, 30 Oct 2005 (UTC)
Tough decision... I think it's a fairly important event that might deserve it's own article... perhaps we should mark it as a VFD to see if it will pass the "test"? --Azizlight 23:24, 30 Oct 2005 (UTC)
- Hopefully anyone who plays the game will be able to give more detailed account of the story behind her death. And I don't think it deserves a VFD, as it is a battle (or skirmish), not a clean-cut assassination. VT-16 23:53, 30 Oct 2005 (UTC)
- I'll be buying Battlefront II the very day it comes out, so I shall do exactly that in 2 days. MarcK 00:01, 31 Oct 2005 (UTC)
  - Damn, I'm excited! :-D --Azizlight 00:09, 31 Oct 2005 (UTC)
    - Some people are getting it early. Lucky...--Xilentshadow900 00:11, 31 Oct 2005 (UTC)
      - It would be better named as Battle of Naboo (Imperial Period) or some such, though. QuentinGeorge 05:56, 31 Oct 2005 (UTC)
        should the uprising on kamino be considered the battle of kamino then?Xilentshadow900 11:14, 31 Oct 2005 (UTC)
        
        It's up to us. I would say, yes, make it Battle of Kamino (Imperial Era). QuentinGeorge 11:31, 31 Oct 2005 (UTC)

According to Leland Chee's StarWars.com blog listing movie character deaths in the EU, this event takes place 18 BBY. The page is here.--JMM 22:54, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

Moved back

"Battle of Naboo (Imperial Period)" is a much better title for this battle. When a planet falls, it's not called "Fall of (planet)", it's "(number, if any) Battle of (planet)". Admiral J. Nebulax 01:20, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Dark Troopers

Please do not include Dark troopers in infoboxes before the Battle of Talay. They are just game mechanics. Lt. 1993 15:08, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

Yes, and no. They were at the battle, therefore, a part of it. It might not be canon, but they were there. Admiral J. Nebulax 20:19, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
- I know they were technically there, but it makes it seem like we are contradicting with ourselves saying that they were introduced at Talay but including them in battles before it. But, if thats your opinion, whatever. Lt. 1993 00:02, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
  - It's another way that Battlefront and its sequel go against canon. Admiral J. Nebulax 00:33, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
    - Leave 'em out, it goes against canon. -Aiddat
      - They're phase zeroes- I'll take out the phase II reference Anomaly Master 98 18:24, October 24, 2009 (UTC)

Quote?

Is that quote from a proper source? I don't think it's from the game. -Aiddat

Sharpshooters and Snipers

I have played the game several times through, and IMPERIAL DIPLOMACY being one of my favorites, I have a save that allows me to jump right in. It says the Queen was slain by Snipers on the rooftops. From what I have seen, the only evidence of that is the sight in the opening journal cinematic that shows an Imperial Sharpshooter zooming in on the Queen's head ready for a kill. In game, she can be killed any number of ways, so why the sniping? ELV

I agree. When I played it, I killed her with a fighter tank. -LtNOWIS 06:35, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Last of the Jedi

Is this the same battle that is in the Last of the Jedi books? Kuralyov 19:51, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

What's with the picture?

I'm not sure the main picture for the battle of Naboo is a good one. It makes it look like Queen Apailana is having a friendly conversation with a stormtrooper. Meanwhile, it was the stormtroopers who killed Queen Apailana. Wolfdog 17:05, 26 December 2006 (UTC)+

Battlefront II opening: Grammatical error?

In the beginning of this mission in Battlefront II, the narrator says that it was "a change that would be affected by the 501st." Is the 'affected' the trooper uses supposed to be like that, or should it be 'effected' instead?
