You Have Some Homework To Do To Make The Most Of Star Wars Zero Company

You Have Some Homework To Do To Make The Most Of Star Wars Zero Company https://ift.tt/NmzkMQw Star Wars Zero Company takes place right at the end of The Clone Wars, my favorite period in Star Wars' huge timeline. That conflict begins with the Battle of Geonosis in Attack of the Clones and concludes with the deaths of the Separatist leaders in Revenge of the Sith, but a vast majority of the galaxy-spanning war is covered in the seven seasons of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. As such, Zero Company makes several references to the earlier seasons of the TV show that debuted in 2008.

A few seconds into the trailer, Lifeline, Loba, and Mad Maggie can be seen fighting Catalyst, with Lifeline wielding a very odd-looking bladed melee weapon. Many Legends have already received an Heirloom Weapon, and Lifeline is one of them. Some Legends, like Wraith and Revenant, have even gotten a second Heirloom Weapon--but so far, those secondary weapons have always been identical in appearance to the original Heirloom, essentially receiving a new weapon skin rather than a new weapon entirely.
