Write your reply.

assistant: A thought occurred to me. Would it be legal for someone who wishes to have a
copy of, say, TROOPS on videocassette to send a blank videotape to the
producers, and they would put a copy on that tape, and send it back? No money
would change hands, and no profit would be made. This is the way it is
frequently done over in the Anime echo, where I sort of lurk. The other thing
that's commonly done is for someone to send just enough money along to cover
the cost of a tape, and postage, in order to obtain a copy of what they want.
But I don't think that would satisfy the legalities here.

Yes, it does, otherwise I wouldn't have said it did. To quote Wedge Antilles

"Attention, Imperial ship STEADFAST, this is General Wedge Antilles,
commanding the LUSANKYA. I order you to surrender and stand by to e boarded,
or we will be forced to destroy you!"
 The SSD is also referred to as the LUSANKYA later on in the book by a New
Republic base commander.

I have no idea of what character she will be playing in Star Wars.
Hmmm!  Her birthday is June 9/81.  She's turned down a lot of
roles including the controversial remake of "Lolita" with Jeremy
Irons which went to Dominique Swain.  It's banned in North America
but you should be able to see it over in Sweden
She also turned down doing Romeo and Juliet with Leonardo DiCaprio.
She hasn't had any new movies out that I can recall after she
had a part in Beautiful Girls.  I'll see what I can find out
about her SW role though.  It's just that everything is super
secret on Lucas' sets.  TTUL

I pick up new StarWars books all the time, just about everything I can get my
hands on.  I happen to like them, and I think it would take only the most
hard-core, dedicated StarWars nuts (like me) to read them.  Just a point of
observation, but I realy like them, I think they add alot of flavor to George
Lucas' universe.
Just my 2 cents.

Write your reply.

assistant: Some time back, someone was asking around here about what Star Destroyers,
especially Super Star Destroyers SSDs) had been captured by the Rebels and
put to use in the novels. Well, here's another tidbit for anyone interested
in that:
At the end of the third (I think) X-Wing novel, the SSD Lusenkya was
captured, badly damaged, by the New Republic. As the book ends, it only says
that repair crews were trying to repair her badly damaged life support,
gravity generation, shields, etc. Nothing since has said what happened to her
after that. Well, imagine my surprise when I picked up the latest issue of
Dark Horse Comics' STAR WARS: CRIMSON EMPIRE, and saw a SSD in all her glory
on pages 6 and 7. Sporting New Republic emblems. And, yes, it's the Lusenkya,
fully repaired and operational and under the command of General Wedge
Antilles! One loose end neatly tied up. Those RPGers out there have a SSD to
put into action on the New Republic's side now, I would guess.
