Featured Article

 * This weeks Featured Article: Battle of Nar Shaddaa (GDE/Legion), by Unit 8311 and Darthtyler! Review written by: Obi maul12

When this article first greeted me on the main page, I knew this wasn’t going to be my most positive review, unfortunately. Although I enjoy seeing collaboration on SWFanon, and though I enjoy CIS droid articles, I believe that this article carries it a bit too far for my liking. It seems to me that this is a rather typical Mary Sue. For example:

"Never thought I'd have an opponent so weak""

- Darth Tyler

That’s the kind of stuff I’m talking about.

While I enjoyed reading the battle between Unit 8311 and Darth Tyler, I found it incredibly ridiculous that a feeble droid such as Tyler could have survived the entire battle against 8311. No matter how connected this droid was to the force, a simple blaster bolt from 8311 could disintegrate him.

The battle itself, on the other hand, was written well, and is definitely more believable than the duel. It was written in enough detail to give a clear picture of what was happening, yet it doesn’t give too many details to clog up the readers’ minds.

The images are definitely creative, but they come out too blurry to seem realistic. Lastly, I just want to say that I can’t picture a droid such as Tyler talking how he does, with his (and 8311’s) swearing, but maybe that’s just me. All in all, I would enjoy this battle more if it was molded into a more believable and less Mary Sue-ish article. ( read it! )
