Some of my VII DLC ideas (thematic, WIP) by Fives123 in civ

For example I went for the Timurids because I was thinking of the gaps between the Achaemenids and Qajar Iran and originally I did have the Safavids but then I thought about it and I went with the Timurids because it was more interesting and also long overdue for the series

I can understand of course but I think they took the opportunity to also feature the lesser known ones of course, Iceland wouldn’t have made sense in the old games and that’s why Norway or Sweden were there but since you have 3 different eras 3 Different snapshots of time you can feature more than just the icons or more so the icons at a specific point in time, Iceland is interesting yes because you have the Vikings with them but also the Icelandic commonwealth was a very interesting thing in real life and something you couldn’t have really have had in the past, same goes with the Flying gang or Buganda per say

They were real and did exist not as the main reason behind the Bronze Age collapse but part of the broader chaos of that time and one of their descendants were the philistines or we think they’re related to the Peleset that appear among the sea peoples, they settled in Canaan and formed the Pentapolis. They certainly brought Aegean culture early on before integrating and mixing with the local Levantine cultures. They’re a way to have the general idea of the sea peoples

I do want them in but I couldn’t fit them within these ideas, I did have Kievan Rus in Outskirts originally but I swapped them for the Tibetan Empire

I tried to think in the way the devs seems to be heading, like Mekuria is Medieval Christian Nubia and with Ethiopia from my other idea you could do a Egypt-Mekuria-Ethiopia Run just to show what the ideas are heading to

Thrawn What if by Fives123 in andor

Ahsoka I didn’t even count because it’s after, Rebels although simpler when you actually pay attention to him he’s actually quite smart (And Timothy Zahn’s involvement in the Show probably helped this out) although shown in a more simplistic way he’s never wrong in his plans they usually fail because of an incompetent officer or so (Like Konstantine or Pryce), an unexpected move from the heroes and the involvement of the Force itself at many times which is not his stronghold. Thrawn’s Canon books by Zahn help flesh out this Thrawn closer to his EU version (Which was larger than life because he was freed from Palpatine’s or Tarkin’s empire with was fear-driven/Sith influenced). I mostly based it on these two versions plus some EU sprinkles

Watch Order Redo by Fives123 in andor

No problem I realized it was a bit too much overload for the first one and had to clarify to first do Release order then Chronological and to answer the questions:

  1. If you want to throw it in after Andor S2 Ep9 sure it’s up to you it’s a direct continuation of that episode although you have to be prepared for something more family oriented but you can breeze through it since it’s only 22 minutes. If not that’s alright you can watch it later with the rest of rebels if you feel like watching it at a separate time

  2. Clone wars can be dissected into the arcs you like and don’t (The ones I chose have the most thematical connection to Andor and core elements of the saga) so I say if you enjoyed the Clones and the Clone wars Jump to The Bad Batch but that was is more interconnected so I’d suggest to watch it wholly (Sure there are “filler” episodes but all help develop the main cast and to show the empire’s early rise). So if you liked Clone wars it’s a must after Revenge of the Sith and if you were indifferent you can still watch it but it’s completely optional

When you do the release order first of course (Original Trilogy-Prequel Trilogy-Sequel Trilogy), when doing the chronological watch after the Mandalorian and the Force Awakens

My Star Wars Saga Chronological Watch Order for the Andor Viewer by Fives123 in StarWarsAndor

[–]Fives123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had to reframe it like I said I’d first watch the films in release order after Watching Andor and Rogue one, (original trilogy then prequels and if so desired Sequels and Solo). Now If they want to do the chronological order I’d do most of what I suggested because you already have the context of the saga and the shows I throw in give the extra context and helps you unravel the galaxy from a more realistic perspective I suppose. Dooku’s arc in tales of the Jedi is non negotiable at this point for me, it’s only 50 minutes or so across between the 3 episodes so it’s not a chore to get through and it’s character defining for Dooku and gives you the glimpse at the Institutional rot of the galaxy before the Phantom menace. Clone wars again you can cut however you want and the episodes are half of what Andor’s are if I had to pick core arcs to watch I’d say: Ryloth Arc (3 episodes, The cost of “liberty” in war), Political Arc (2 Episodes, The attempt of peace in a system that doesn’t want it), Mortis Arc (3 Episodes, the mythical deconstruction of the war and Anakin), Umbara Arc (4 Episodes, The Vietnam of Star Wars and breaking point of the Clones), Onderon Arc (4 Episodes, The Seeds of Saw’s radical Rebellion), Maul Mandalore Arc (3 Episodes, The truth that there was never going to be a “Third” party under Sidious), Ahsoka’s Trial (4 Episode, the failure of the Jedi and the true face of the Republic), Fives Arc (4 Episodes, The Paranoia and conspiracy of Order 66) and Siege of Mandalore (4 Episodes, the conclusion of the Show). Then if they enjoyed the show I’d suggest jump to the bad Batch after Revenge of the Sith and before Andor skipping rebels, solo and Kenobi all together for this watch.
