Has anyone read the new species in Star Wars. I don't know the name of them, but they are like the Vidians from Voyager. They use organic ships and are totally deviod of the Force?
I found out today that they took Courscant, killed Chewie, killed Anakin Solo, and so on. They are doing a pretty good job of destroying the galaxy so far.

Er. . . buh? You know, the so-called internet-aware generation is growing up seriously lacking in elementary communication skills.
quote: Has anyone read the new species in Star Wars.
Well, you know, I like a nice genome to read on the train to work in the morning, but so far I've only got up to their big toe.
quote: I don't know the name of them, but they are like the Vidians from Voyager.
OK, no real problems here.
quote: They use organic ships and are totally deviod of the Force?
I could point out the Vidians didn't use organic ships, but that would be nixpicking. Unless you didn't mean them but Species 8742. As for 'deviod of the Force' I know what you mean, but it's very funny nonetheless. But why the question mark? Are you finally rounding up the question you mean to ask, or are you uncertain whether they a) use organic ships, or are b) totally deviod of the Force?
quote: I found out today that they took Courscant,
I just saw the news, but must have missed that report. Or is Courscant some designer drug or something?
quote: killed Chewie,
Oh my God! They killed Chewie! You bastards!
quote: killed Anakin Solo,
I'm not up on all the lore of Star Wars, so either Anakin Solo is some relative of Han Solo and/or Leia Organa, or he was just someone who was killed solo, alone. Like Captain Kirk.
quote: and so on.
As if that wasn't enough.
quote: They are doing a pretty good job of destroying the galaxy so far.
Sure puts entropy and the Heat Death in their places, I guess.

A) They're called the Yuzaan Vong.
B) This thread should have New Jedi Order spoiler warnings.
C) Anakin Solo is Han and Leia's youngest kid. Quite force-adept, obviously. Also quite dead.

Well, what did they expect? "Son, we named you after your grandpa, he tortured your mum and killed countless millions of people, but said sorry just before he died so that's all right?" Christ, what else, did they insist he name his first hover-tricycle the "Titanic" as well?

It's all about the bollocks, and never mind the stragglers.
"Yuzhaan Vong" They used up all the Starwarish names and started picking Vietnamese beaches?
http://www.starwars.com/databank/species/yuuzhanvong/index.html
I know it's judgemental, but these people are a perfect blend of the Jem'Hadar, the B5-Shadows and the Species 8472, literally and physically. They come from another galaxy than the SW-one, brand the inhabitants (The New Republic) "infidels" and will now proceed with the usual cleansing.
This is just what messed up TNG, DS9 and Voyager. An unbeatable, resourceless foe that is the perfect opposite to goodness. Get a nanoprobe-torpedo or an ancient book of Holy Hell and they are toast.
Let me guess, Luke's babies will find an ancient, buried artifact that kills all Ho-Chi-Vongs in sight, instantly?
*sigh* *burp*
I just needed venting, I'll be nice now. I'm sure them Vongs have several special features, I've never seen self-mutilation in neither Trek nor Babs. Sounds nasty. [ April 25, 2002, 07:02: Message edited by: Nim Pim ]

What I meant by Vidians was that they take pieces of flesh from other speicies and even bio-engineered body parts to fit their god. The Vidians do a similar way that they take body parts but to cure a disease.
This species is totally deviod of the Force and they don't like the Jedi for some reason.
Anakin Solo is the youngest out of the Solo family named after Anakin Skywalker. If you need to know who Anakin Skywalker is, he is Darth Vader. Do you want to knwo who Darth Vader is too?
I guess they needed a new species since a little before, the Galactic Empire signed a peace treaty, so more Good vs. Evil between them. Now its Evil/Good vs. Evil.
When I said I just found out, I meant I read it today. No need to be so anal about it.
Oh, and by the way, I never knew that coming here I would constantly tested by the appearent English majors. [ April 25, 2002, 15:40: Message edited by: Matrix ]

No, I don't knwo who the fuck Darth Vadrer is. I'd like to know, because in a search, I get a crazy ass Venezualean site or some shit like that. In fact, I've never even heard of a Darth Vadrer, ever.
Jesus Christ. They guy berates you in the first post of this thread about your complete incoherence, and you don't even think to even try in your next post. Effort?

*composes end-of-term report for Matrix's parents*
Matrix continues to disappoint. His grasp of the English language goes from bad to worse. He continually repeats mistakes which have been previously drawn to his attention, such as 'deviod.' Worse, he uses his knowledge of trivialities in ill-fated attempts to suggest some sort of intellectual superiority, and when challenged is apt to lash out with accusations that his perceived detractors are being 'anal.' If he does not show significant improvement in the next term, you should consider enrolling him in the TrekBBS School for Special Needs Children.
Overall Grade for this Term: D+

Vogon Poet I bow to your obvious intellilect superiority of Star Trek and Star Wars over me. I guess I must get a life since I am no longer reigning champion of Star Trek and Stars Wars. Thanks Vogon, for that post you made.
I will forever change my life to make sure that everything I type and write will be grammically correct and typo free.

Hehehe..Whoa! You guys be careful, I almost got hit in the face by them swinging dicks.
So although the Vongs don't get affected by the Force, they should react badly to a saber in the gut, no?

OK, maybe it'll get bumped up to C- on appeal.
Lighten up, Matreychops, you'll need to develop a much thicker skin if you hang out round here. All we ask is that you make some stab at coherency every now and then. And, as far as your posts being grammically correct, I'll be sure to, er, weigh every sentence carefully. 8)

Depends on what they did to themselves. What they do is that in the image of their gods to enhance their physical appearence and abilities. Some might have built in weapons, some might be covered with armor plating. Also if once of these procedures fail, they fall down to the lowest of castes.
They do not like the Jedi for some reason, though I have to read about it. I think one of the solo kids defeated the leader in combat, and now wants revenge.
