That is not current cannon. We have no idea what happens to Thrawn after he and Ezra jump into Hyperspace into the Unknown regions.


I must be getting canon mixed up with Thrawn books. Because there are some new canonical Thrawn books I think my head connected the old books in as canon.

quote:

Moffs were not primarily political positions. There is no such thing in the Empire.. Moffs were supreme rulers in their sectors. They were Commander in Chief of the military assets in their sectors and reported directly to the Emperor after Yavin. They were at the top of the chain of command. Remember that Moff Jerrjerrod was the supreme commander of the imperial navy at Endor.


Perhaps I've misunderstood the role of Moffs this whole time. I didn't think any Admirals or Star Destroyers served under Moffs, but you bring some valid points in your post and I question my own memory. I may have read too many non-canon books and am getting things mixed up.

quote:

The Moffs we have seen on screen were in charge of the Death Star (Tarkin), A Super Star Destroyer and the Death Star II (Jerrjerrod).


I know Tarkin was a Grand Moff, but what about the other examples?

That’s it, oh man that episode was great. Nimbus was going to be at Elroy’s birthday party but had a cold. So George had to put on the costume and fly around, or something like that. Thx for posting the pic

When Boba saw the open door to the Crest, you knew he was gonna get that armor. So from then on, you’re waiting for him to show back up in the fight, fully decked out. As many, he was a favorite of mine. As a matter of fact, I still have my Slave 1 ship from 84 or whenever that was. It’s pretty bare to the bones but I still have it

Do you think it is still equipped with those bad arse mines from Ep 2? Easily one of my favorite movie sound effects.

According to the game Battlefront II (2017)... yes, yes it is.

Moffs are Sector Governors. But also may be in charge of something such as the Death Star (Jerjerrod was in charge of the DS2).

Grand Moffs are in charge of a various range of things, not just an “Oversector.” Key locations and stations could have a Grand Moff in charge without that Grand Moff answering for the surrounding Sectors. I think the biggest difference in Moff and Grand Moff is that a Grand Moff answers directly to the Emperor more than a Moff would.

I understand the Grand Moff to just basically be in charge over the other Moffs, report to the Emporer, and in charge of extremely large/important ships. Not in charge of any particular sector. Can overrule any particular Moff, even in that moff's own sector, if he so chooses.

Seemingly. A Grand Admiral also has more power than a Governor or Moff in military operation. A Grand Moff just adds more politcal stature.

2.) Grogu tells Ahsoka he connected with Ezra (they meditate together and see him) and then she leaves to find him. Or he could just show up warning about Thrawn.


Thrawn and Ezra will be allies of some sort at this point. Their main fight will be helping the Ascendency against the Grysk in the Unknowns.

This was made by Lucasfilm under Disney.

The Clone Wars episode that says Jango wasn’t was made under George Lucas.


Did not take long for one to chime in.

What is Star Wars canon is suppose to be whatever Disney bought the rights to from Lucas and what they determine now. Just like in the EU Jango was a Mandalorian and now in canon he is as well.

Thanks for playing.

Moffs served as both political governor, sectors they governed over for the Imperial Council and the military presence in those sectors.

Almec was speaking from “a certain point of view.” I’m not a fan of the Fetts up until this point so I was OK with them being pretenders. Boba was great in this episode but I’m still not much of a fan.

Damn that was outside of Grogu getting captured.

Got to see Melinda May go ham.

Boba go ham.

The MFing Slave 1, second only to the Falcon imo. Man I love this show.

It’s a great ship for sure. I’d put Red V ahead of Slave 1. Also really like Thrawn’s TIE Defender.
