Talk:Admiral Piett

message: Maybe the globes on the bridge tower are designated for shield duties, like the one the A-wings blew up. Maybe the ones that are seen throughout the model are the sensor globes.
And also, even if the sensors weren't down, it would still be hard for the Executor's turbolasers to hit an A-wing. Those things are pretty darn fast.- B-101 13:36, 14 Oct 2004 (UTC)

message: The new guide to weapons and technology says that the domes are the shield generators. I would like to change it again.- B-101 00:23, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: It would be better to call them shield projectors, rather than generators. Vermilion 19:33, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: So, would it be okay to change that the statement that the Rebels fleet took down the shields to the two A-wings that blew up the domes?- B-101 23:53, 28 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Edit whatever you want, you don't need to ask permisson for anything. I mainly take issue with saying the A-wings alone brought down the shield. The domes themselves would be protected by the shield, so it would have to be taken down first for the A-wings to be able to hit them. That's what the fleet did. Vermilion 20:25, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC)

text: I put in that the fleet disabled the shields for the projectors and the A-wings destroyed the bridge's projector. This should be a common agreement for us.- B-101 18:09, 30 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, that looks good. Vermilion 20:19, 30 Oct 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: Shields again

message: Piett was probably married and "Sarkli" was his wife's maiden name.
Er...why is this believed?  I haven't read any Star Wars Extended Universe stuff, so I am just going from the text of the article on this, but if it is explained that Sarkli is his wife's maiden name, then it's not "probably."  If it is not explained, I don't see why this is any more likely than any other explanation of a nephew with a different last name than his uncle, of which there are numerous possibilities - the son of Piett's sister, the son of Piett's half-brother, the son of Piett's wife's sister, the son of Piett's step-brother or sister... john k 07:41, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: I've always thought the chap on the Executor who Piett grumbles to about bounty hunters ("We don't need their scum!") in The Empire Strikes Back is the same chap sitting at the console on the Executor when Darth Vader asks Piett where the shuttle Tyderium is going in Return of the Jedi.  Is this wrong?  Can anybody confirm or deny this?  Wavy G 01:38, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

Otherwise, I will restore the redirect and/or take the article to AfD.
