Source?

Vandalism

I don't know why, but this seems kind of like vandalism.

• It's definitely not vandalism. —Grand Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 15:15, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
• What about this seems like vandalism? I just finished reading the book, and have been updating several items like the Black Squadron and Battle of Callos and what not, but confused as to why Rogue Shadow is locked. I read through it, and it seemed to be correct. What about this seemed like vandalism? Im requesting that this one be opened again, so at least someone can go in to update it a wee bit more.

Influenced by TIE Interceptor

Given the timeline of the game (between episodes III and IV), how can it be influenced by a ship that does not even exist yet? Vryce 23:20, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

• Unfortunately, it appears to have existed even before Episode IV. However, it remains to be see if it only appeared as a prototype in that time, or if it was actually being mass-produced. —Grand Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 02:44, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Is it possible that it's meant that the design is influenced by the TIE Interceptor in the real world as opposed to the game world? That is, the game designers have designed it around the Interceptor, rather than whoever actually makes the ship in-game.--Israi 01:37, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
    • Well, that's probably it, but it can still be an IU explanation. —Grand Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 01:53, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
      • How? As already stated, the TIE/In hasn't yet been developed - \\Captain Kwenn// ^{— Ahoy!} 22:02, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
        • As already stated, it's appeared in sources set before ANH. —Grand Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 22:09, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
          • Which sources? The TIE/In article doesn't list anything but post-ANH appearances - \\Captain Kwenn// ^{— Ahoy!} 08:11, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
            • Battlefront II and Lethal Alliance. —Grand Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 12:10, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
• The ship looks kinda like the VT-49 Decimator IMO. DAWUSS 14:06, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
  • A little bit, I suppose... —Grand Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 20:40, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
    • Actually, I think I have it - it looks like it was based off of the Jedi Starfighter DAWUSS 02:30, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
      • To be honest, I don't think it was mainly based off of anything—it just happened to include elements of other craft. —Grand Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 11:27, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
        • I dub thee… mish mash. Jasca Ducato _{Sith Council} ^{Sith Campaign} 16:27, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

i agree it is in the game world but that should be behind the scenes rightJedikiller723 21:39, 29 August 2008 (UTC)jedikiller723

LEGO?

I found some forum pics on FBTB.net with the box art for the Rogue Shadow. Relevant thread

Who is Galen Marek?

64.112.220.33 14:00, 29 September 2008 (UTC)OK, I get that "Galen" is the name given in the novelized version of TFU, but "Marek"? According to the in-game databank (which I've read is considered canonical by Lucas et. al.), the Starkiller's father was the Jedi Kento Nion. Where did this other name come from? For that matter, the name Galen never appears in the game either!

64.112.220.33 14:00, 29 September 2008 (UTC)Darth Paul

As far as I remember, Galen Marek was his full name given at the end of the TFU novel. Bail Organa reveals it to Eclipse, Kota, Mon Mothma and Bel Iblis. - Cavalier One^{(Squadron channel)} 14:12, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

5.3 Factual correction

The Rogue Shadow specs box lists the length at 65 meters. I don't know the length but 65 meters seems too long (that's twice the length of the Millennium Falcon). Lego has released a Rogue Shadow model that seems to be based on a vehicle in the 15-18 meter range.

71.107.142.91 04:34, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

• From playing the Wii version of the game at least, I would say it is more somewhere in the 40 meter range. 65 meters is far too big. By comparing the length of the boarding ramp which is about 5 meters (by comparing the size of persons walking down it) long, the Rogue Shadow is about 7-9 times longer. 50 meters at the very most.

The ad at the top of this article blocks two or three sentences, fix it! —Unsigned comment by 71.212.140.3 (talk • contribs)

• There's nothing we can do about it. I would suggest registering for an account; do that and the vast majority of ads will go away. —Master Jonathan^{(Jedi Council Chambers)} 03:33, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Ship design

Is it just me, or does the aerodynamics of this ship balance it so that it would go into a tailspin if it tried to take off in an atmospheric enviornment? The thing isn't remotely symetrical, and I don't see any difference in engine size or placement to compensate. 74.183.255.204 23:51, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

• lots of atmosphere capable ships in star wars are not symmetrical, i guess because of anti gravity technology it is not necessary for the atmosphere to influence the ship's flight--99.141.179.43 23:26, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

Appearance in TFU 2

In one of the webdocs on the official site a ship bearing strong resemblance to the Rogue Shadow is seen, yet it is still very clearly a different ship. It is possible that, like the Tantive IV, the ship was upgraded via a heavy renovation. However, I don't think it's safe to make such assumptions. –– Darth Shohet –– 02:29, September 4, 2010 (UTC)

• The Rogue Shadow is in The Force Unleashed II novel and comic at least, so presumably the game too. But its appearance in the graphic novel does look slightly different. Most notable is the pods. Now, they both have a forked, two-foil appearance, and they fold together. Taral, Dark Lord of the Sith ^{-Just shy, not antisocial: You can talk to me!-} 15:11, October 12, 2010 (UTC)
  • The ship has been identified by LucasFilm as being the Rogue Shadow. Gethralkin^Hyperwave 22:05, October 13, 2010 (UTC)

Length

Sorry for opening a new thread. I wasn't able to answer to one of the older threads above with the same topic. I think everyone agrees now that the Shadow isn't by far 65 (!) meters long. One just has to watch the cutscene from TFU with Bail Organa and the Lambda Shuttle to see that. The question is: which source started spreading this fake length? It seems everybody then copied that number blindly without checking or having a closer look. If we could make out the source or even ask one of the developers who designed this ship, they could tell us exactly how long the Shadow really is. Does anybody know whom to contact for this matter?

where is the training room

the training room part would take up like the whole ship there isn't any room for it Joe217

Why are there multiple links, that should link to one article, linking to random things

Imperial(Galactic Empire/Legends) Transport(Transport/legends) what is the point of this? why would you separate them? Clearly written to be one thing. No reason to add that. Joe217
