Did Lott Dod ever join the CIS?

What happened to Lushros Dofine, did he take an escape pod, go down to Coruscant in the part with Anakin and the others, or die in the back part of the Invisible Hand?

Are any moments in a movie's game that aren't shown in the movie considered canon?
Jocasta Nu's death in the Revenge of the Sith video game immediately jumps to mind.

Leland, I was curious what sort of representation in the Holocron the Marvel comics stories have.

Not exactly sure what kind of specific information you are asking for, but here's some general factoids. Currently, of the 27,464 entries in the Holocron, 405 list the Star Wars Marvel comics as a source. Of those, 376 have information in their Full Description attributed to those comics.

Do you mean that her death is or isn't canon?

And thanks for answering.

Just picked up the second X-Wing Rogue Squadron Omnibus and now have a question:

The timeline sequence in this book--I'm quite sure both In The Empire's Service and Mandatory Retirement (both slated to appear in the 3rd volume) have dialogue that places the respective stories some six months after the Battle of Endor. However, in this volume we have stories set at 6, 7, and 8 months after the Battle of Endor respectively. Does this mean that the final arcs of the Rogue Squadron series are now set, at the earliest, some 9 - 12 months after the Battle of Endor? Will the dialogue in these stories (when reprinted in Volume 3) be changed to support this? Just curious.

It is canon, as is, I believe, Serra Keto's death. However, that same game also gives an alternate take on Nute Gunray's demise; he escapes to his shuttle, which Vader subsequently destroys in a boss battle. That, naturally, isn't canon. Also, I don't think the Cin Drallig fight is canon, since Vader slays him on a veranda outside the Temple, not in the Room of a Thousand Fountains as seen on the hologram in the film, and confirmed by name in Dark Nest: The Swarm War.

Can we assume that Vors Voorhorian was with the Incom scientists on Fresia?

I'm not a VIP here, mavrick (if that is you real name... $;\$ ), but I remember when the comics came out official word was that each story arc was a month after the previous one, and that's what I originally had in my timeline. But if you read the dialogue, a later arc is placed 6 mos. after ROTJ, with the last arcs set very close to the others as far as the stories go. I figured I'd base the dates on the clues in the story and not the "official" dates.

Hi, Mr. Chee. Read Your wizards article and wasn't sure how else to go about contacing you. I am wanting to apply for Lucas Licensing, and was wondering if you could steer me in the right dierction. I am wanting to start a website that devotes itself to creating custom costumes and props for all fans and sites that require them, I.E. the Jedi Assembly, etc. It was my understanding Master Replicas was going to do somthing similar, but have dropped the project due to cost effectiveness.As far as props ther are many wanted and not available to the public, I.E. Obiwan's Viewscreen, A-99 Auqata breather just to name a few. If you could email me i would appriciate it. Thank you in adavnce for a quiuck reply.

Revenge of the Sith video game continuity...
Jocasta Nu and Serra Keto deaths are continuity; Cin Drallig's is not (he doesn't even wear the same costume as he does in the movie) nor are any other discpencies between the game and the movie. Some of the "deleted scene" levels from the Trade Federation cruiser levels might fit in. Obviously, the alternate ending is non-continuity.

Can we assume that Vors Voorhorian was with the Incom scientists on Fresia?
Not a bad assumption, but not official until a Star Wars author decides they want to connect the events of Empire at War with the Star Wars Kids comics.

X-Wing Rogue Squadron Omnibus timeline sequence... Will the dialogue in these stories (when reprinted in Volume 3) be changed to support this?
I haven't heard of any changes, but you'd probably have better luck asking Randy Stradley on the Dark Horse boards.

I am wanting to apply for Lucas Licensing...
Lucas Licensing works with outside licensees to create Star Wars products. Licensing itself doesn't make the products. For the types of products you'd like to see, companies that are official Star Wars licensees like Master Replicas (high end collectibles) or Rubie's (costumes) sound like your best bet. Keep in mind, perceived demand and price all factor into what products get made and which don't.

Tasty, I think Ari was asking how to become a licensee. as in what process he/she would have to go through to become one.

Alas, that's not my area of expertise. Unfortunately, I don't have further contact info I can give you.

Quick question about a couple of obscure (adoptive) relatives of Luke and Leia mentioned in Children of the Jedi...

Cousin Nial, a member of House Organa: Wookieepedia seems to think he's Aunt Tia's son, but I can't see any direct evidence of this (or even that he's a first cousin)...

While I was looking for further info on Nial, I came across a reference by Luke to his aunt Cootie, who I don't think I've ever seen picked up on. Again, Wookieepedia makes her Beru' sister, which seems plausible, but there's no reference to any other source...

Hoping you can tell me more, if there is any...

Thanks!
Pol'

Is the system that the Star Destroyers are in at the end of ROTS the Horuz system, over Despayre?
