whenever new Star Wars novels come out I
go through and share a number of facts
that I learned from them something I've
been meaning to start for a while now is
doing the same thing with Star Wars
reference books Star Wars super graphic
came out recently and I just read
through it so now seems like the perfect
time to start this is 30 facts I learned
from Star Wars super graphic keep in
mind this book is all about graphically
representing statistics so the facts are
kind of all over the place but here we
go
the name of the planets in the Haj nian
system that were destroyed we're quartz
Ilyas ratio hosnian car DOTA and of
course hosnian prime sifo-dyas
commissioned the clone army the same
year as the invasion of Naboo I don't
believe that was stated before now in
canon but it is the same date as in
legends during the escape from the first
Death Star the stormtroopers miss a
total of 119 shots I covered the blaster
bolt color meanings in a Q&A video not
long ago but the information came from
this book and in case you missed it I'll
go through them again red is the most
common blaster color because it's made
from cheaper gas green bolts are made
from a higher-quality gas making it more
expensive
that's why Imperial starfighters fire
green and rebel ships fire red blue
bolts use ion based energy charges that
are more effective against droids and
machines orange bolts are non fatal low
powered shots used in training
situations yellow has been seen used by
Death Watch and purple has been seen
fired by Geonosian nan Tech's class
fighters but we don't know what those
colors mean right now the Jedi High
Council consists of five permanent
members for long term members and three
limited term members when the Jedi
Council is mentioned most people think
of the Jedi High Council shown often in
the prequel trilogy it was the primary
governing body of the Jedi but there
were actually three other Jedi councils
they were present in legends and were
made cannon in the complete locations
book but super graphic has now made
their responsibilities canon
the Council of reassignment focused on
organization and personnel overseeing
the Jedi Service Corps it also managed
distribution and placement of Jedi
initiate sewer not cut out to be
Padawans the Council of first knowledge
oversaw the Jedi Academy its curriculum
and maintain the temple archives it was
led by the caretaker of first knowledge
the council of reconciliation focused on
diplomatic conflict resolution with the
Galactic Senate and the diplomatic corps
it was made up of five members who
specialized in negotiation and diplomacy
Episode one The Phantom Menace is the
only film in which nobody loses an arm
legs are another story obi-wan has cut
off the most hands or arms in all the
film's seven total arms from five
enemies every type of droid fits into
one of five categories class one was
programmed to work in biological
sciences including medicine class two
was programmed to work in technical
sciences and engineering like astromech
droids class three was programmed to
work in sentience being interaction like
protocol droids or servants class four
was programmed to work in warfare like
battle droids assassin droids or
security droids and class five was
programmed to work in labor settings
they were the most common type of droid
in Star Wars rebels Harrow was the
leader of the ghost crew but Canaan's
call sign was Spectre 1 while Harrah's
was Spectre 2 to trick Imperials into
thinking that he was the leader this is
something I should have picked up on in
the Clone Wars but Java has an uncle
named Ybor the Hutt he was mentioned as
zeros brother in the episode hunt for
zero and I just never connected the dots
until this book Java also had a nephew
named Gorga he was also in the Clone
Wars but I had no idea he was a blood
relative to Java
it takes a Sarlacc 30,000 years to reach
maturity that makes their thousand-year
digestion seem more reasonable the book
gives us a graphical representation of
stormtrooper command there were 10
stormtroopers in a squad 5 squads in a
platoon
for platoons in a company for companies
in a battalion for battalions and a
regiment and for regiments and a legion
so the 501st legion for example had
12,800 stormtroopers in total throughout
film history protagonists are usually
shown moving from left to right on
screen a movement that our brains
process as natural the clone troopers
are mostly shown moving from right to
left an attack of the clones and the
Clone Wars to foreshadow their eventual
betrayal of the Jedi according to this
book when his debt was at its highest
Han owed Jabba the Hutt two hundred and
twenty four thousand one hundred and
ninety credits but that's also stated as
the amount of the bounty on his head
after a new hope so I'm not sure which
is correct
Savage Opress and feral are confirmed to
be blood brothers making Maul and feral
also at least half brothers I know this
seems obvious but I've always been
skeptical about night brother bloodlines
since everybody calls everybody else
brother on that planet using the runtime
of the audio books novels make up nearly
half of the content Star Wars has to
offer
the film's make up less than 10% that's
just about everything I think was
revealed by Star Wars super graphic I'll
be honest I didn't think I was going to
get much out of the book but it was far
more engaging than I was expecting
seeing some of these facts graphically
depicted just made me look at Star Wars
in a different way so I'd say it was a
fun read if you're into statistics and
charts and that kind of thing but that's
it for today you can see some of my
other fact-based videos in this playlist
here and I'll continue to explore the
reference books both old and new if you
