Marvelous* Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 Quick question: How many years after rotj was JO set? Im sure it was about 13 years after a new hope, but i remember argueing with someone, that it was set between a new hope/empire strikes back?? If it was set after rotj, i thought mon mothma died somewhere between a new hope and rotj? Im confused Can anyone shed any light plz! ta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haradim Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 If my memory serves, doesn't it say 8 years after the Battle of Endor right in the intro to the first single player game? And Mon Mothma didn't die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sounds Risky Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 Originally posted by Marvelous* i thought mon mothma died somewhere between a new hope and rotj? Um, Mon Mothma was in RotJ. She wasn't even in any of the other films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XERXES Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 and she certianly never died considering she is in all the books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerfYoda Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 If you follow the EU Luke established the Jedi Academy on Yavin 8 years after ROTJ. Since the Academy plays a part in JO its safe to assume JO takes place at least 8 years after ROTJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GE Predator Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 Yeah, it's sometime around the academy trilogy. As for Mon Mothma.... I wonder when she dies? In Planet of Twilight, Han describes her as having white hair, she has to walk with 2 canes, but she refuses to walk with em in public. That degenerative poison that infected her really did a number on her. It probably took deckades off her life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 It does indeed say that JK2's story begins 8 years after the Battle of Endor (ROTJ) in the opening crawl for the SP game. The demo level appears to be out of continuity, or is an "alternative timeline" of the events of SP and shouldn't count. MotS, IIRC (I posted about it some time ago in the valley I think, but I can't search for it now) took place five years after Jerec's defeat. JK took place simply "several years" after the destruction of the second deathstar. Maybe the dark forces books shed some more light on it?
