Thanks.

I think the assumption isn't TCW, just that since Sidious' assassination of Plagueis probably takes place before Maul's death, so if we replace that with Sidious and Plagueis killing each other, Maul is still alive. I was originally thinking extinction of Bane's line of Sith before the Clone...

Does a Jedi Order really need all that much funding? They're an order of monks, I don't think they were living it up. If you can support a household guard then you can pay for the sort of food and lodging most Jedi would expect, maybe nicer stuff too.

I was thinking: what would have happened during the Clone Wars timeframe if the Sith did not exist at that point. We'll ignore their role in things getting to that point. Let's say Sidious' attempt to kill Plagueis ends with a mutual kill that reveals neither of them (Hugo Damask and Sheev...

Hmm, so if I was trying to fix some of these problems, I think I'd have that the Jedi think they're stealing Dooku's army. Maybe Dooku was close to Dyfas, or something, or maybe just have him be the one who ordered the army, faking that he was still a Jedi. Or they think he was impersonating...

I'm not sure how you think TCW exacerbated any of these problems. TCW had a bad start but ended up pretty decent for a children's cartoon. In particular, I thought Anakin was one of the things they handled surprisingly well and I like him in TCW a lot more than in the PT. It did introduce the...

With the exception of Padme's pacifism, these are all issues with the PT, rather than TCW. The multimedia project might attempt to explain them, but it can't fix them IMO.

Honestly these are both kinda d-list canon stuff which does not appear to have seen any real focus in the rest of the universe and I'd be genuinely pretty surprised if even most SW authors knew about it, and we don't see any negative impact on the opinion of the Jedi outside of self-contained to...

... was there though? from where? I can't think of any actual instances of Jedi having bad relations with local forces or their own forces in the Disney canon with the sole exception of like Pong Krell, who was a traitor to both the Republic and the Jedi. You'd think the Jedi would notice if...

Why did the youngling Massacre occur, anyway? Sidious afterwards seems interested in setting up various dark side force sensitive operatives of various sorts (in both Legends and Disney), and the Inquisitorious in Disney canon outright recruits former Padawans. It seems like it'd be a waste to...

I quite like the theory that Padme's "dying of a broken heart" was actually Palpatine somehow draining her in order to prevent Vader from dying.

I can't really see Padme as characterized staying with Anakin in this scenario or backing any sort of Imperial-like regime, whether it's led by Palpatine or Anakin, even for a regime that was significantly better than Sidious' empire was. Padme at least in TCW was characterized by being an avid...

This is pretty much what would have happened if Vader hadn’t had to have the suit, since Anakin was already a war hero.

IMO if you're doing a pro-Empire (or a quasi-pro-Empire) fic, which this is unless you're going to have him defect, you'd be better off casting the Trade Federation in maximally villainous light and basically saying "you know, for all the Empire does... at least we stop stuff like the damn Trade...

I'd actually planned on Palpatine not getting the chancellorship until much later in the war- in part due to his suspiscious friendship with Plagueis, but also because the Trade Federation is actually trying to use their substantial influence to stop him, rather than putting on a show but having...

There's a lot of things that bug me about the prequels in terms of ways I think they make for an awkward precursor to the Original Trilogy. As someone who often roots for the Empire, at least on aesthetic grounds, I'm also kinda interested in the idea of a First Order Rising fic painting them in...
