RDX1 Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 Where in the movies where Rhen Var? Isn't this a game to play battles from the movies?
Evil Dark Jedi Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 They put Rhen Var in so there were enough planets for the game.
Dragonball Fan Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 Why, aren't you smart RDX1. It's in the clone wars cartoon ( Which GL says himself is 100% Canon. )
Freak Parade Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 Rhen Var may be one of the new planets to be shown in Episode 3.
X_Fighter Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 something on Rhen Var i got from a site Rhen Var is a fictitious planet from the Expanded Star Wars universe. It has an icy surface similar to that of Hoth, being covered with snow and ice. Ancient Jedi monuments are buried beneath the surface of Rhen Var. Rhen Var was once a fertile paradise filled with vegetation and wild life. Millons of years ago, an atmospheric cataclysm turned it into an icy hibernal surface. During the Clone Wars, the Confederacy of Independent Systems, or the Separatist army, seized Rhen Var with an army so big that the Republic base had to evacuate the planet. Obi-Wan Kenobi informed the Jedi Council about the seizing of the planet. After the Liberation of Kashyyyk Moon, the Republic retook Rhen Var. After the The Great Sith War (4,000 BBY), Ulic Qel Droma sought refuge on Rhen Var, and he is buried there.

adillon Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 Originally posted by RDX1 I haven't seen the cartoon yet. oh man, all 20 chapters rock ... a nice little segueway into episode 3.
RDX1 Posted September 27, 2004 Author Posted September 27, 2004 Originally posted by adillon oh man, all 20 chapters rock ... a nice little segueway into episode 3. Yeah, I really want to see them. I put my e-mail in at Amazon.com saying I would like to see this product. If they get enough people they will bring it to DVD. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00005JMZG/qid%3D1096320021/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/102-3882618-7226507
ps2gamer42 Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 Well i dont see what the fuss is about, rhen var is the best map in my opinion.
-XJD-MALAK Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 Only one of the Rhen Var levels is awsome. The other one isn't that great.
LoQ Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 Originally posted by RDX1 Yeah, I really want to see them. I put my e-mail in at Amazon.com saying I would like to see this product. If they get enough people they will bring it to DVD. They are defintely coming out on DVD. Last I heard was November/December (just in time for Christmas). But that was a while ago, so that might have changed. There will be another season of clone wars too which will be aired in May (shortly before the release of EP III. Probably to tie up some loose ends for the movie)
RDX1 Posted September 27, 2004 Author Posted September 27, 2004 How long was it? I heard that it was 24 1 minute episodes?
LoQ Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 THe existing clone wars episode are 20, and were about 3 minutes long. The new ones coming will be way less in number, but much longer (12 minutes). I imagine this is also probably due to the fact that they will be showing them in May, but want to have it completed before EP III ROTS is released in theaters.
LoQ Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 Oh and BTW the ice planet that we saw in the Clone Wars Cartoon series was IIum, not Rhen Var.
reltes Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 rhen var was invented by pandemic for the clone wars game. lucas will use his own planets in ep 3. you can bet on it.

Sorry but you are wrong. Rhen Var was an ice planet that Ulic Qel-Droma exiled himself on. This was in the "Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi" comic series from Dark Horse (Redemption # 2 if I am not mistaken)
JawaJoey Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 Yup, started in the clone wars games. "During the Clone Wars, the Confederacy of Independent Systems, or the Separatist army, seized Rhen Var with an army so big that the Republic base had to evacuate the planet. Obi-Wan Kenobi informed the Jedi Council about the seizing of the planet. After the Liberation of Kashyyyk Moon, the Republic retook Rhen Var." was all in the game. Information vital to the survival of the republic was stored in one of the Jedi tombs. That's why the separatists invaded the mostly barren planet, and thats why it was imperative the Republic recapture it.

It started in the Dark Horse comic several years ago. I have the comic. See for yourself. http://www.wheelon.com/comics/redemption.htm read the synopsis for issue 2. It mentions the planet and the publishing date (1998)
Freak Parade Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 Originally posted by thejeditraitor rhen var isn't in ep 3 From ign.com "Players take part in epic battles from both the original series (Episodes IV, V, VI) as well as the prequel trilogy (Episode I, II, III.) .Link". If the above is correct then Rhen Var will be seen in Episode 3.
THE BADGER: Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 Continuing off topic........ I heard rumors that Lucas is going to add a snow planet for Ep. 3. Maybe Rhen Var will be it. But all the spoliers I have read and heard have not mentioned Rhen Var. If the above is correct then Rhen Var will be seen in Episode 3. I think they were talking about Kashyyyk.
Iceman_IX Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 I've heard mention on here that Rhen Var is the Episode 3 planet that is supposed to be in the game, but it very well could be Kashyyk
THE BADGER: Posted September 27, 2004 Posted September 27, 2004 but it very well could be Kashyyk It is. On the official website, http://www.starwarsbattlefront.com, It listed all the planets and all had a little movie to go with it except for Bespin and "Ep. 3 planet". Later when the game came out they filled in Kashyyyk in it's place.
