It's on the back of the SWBF2 instructions manuel. :) I'm glad Kyle finally made it in to one of their stratagy games. I wonder if they'll have different versions of Luke Skywalker or just the pre-Yavin one.

I thought this, too but I saw Han working alone in a trailer. But they seem to fly in together in the Millenium Falcon!

@JAFFA: I think your picture is the package pic! (at least it looks like this in amazon!)

Only the presence of the Emperor's Hand will suffice to persuade me getting this game... We all know her life as a Jedi / smuggler, but her past stays rather "elliptic"...

Well, at least I saw a picture of her using a light-sabre!

you don't have to be a jedi to have a lightsaber, duh. sith have lightsabers and they're not jedi. there's no reason the emperor couldn't have given her one (and he may have in fact, i dont remember or know if its been stated one way or the other)

and leviathan, the only reason you're getting this game is because mara jade is in it?

I know that, but only Jedi (and Sith, you're right) can handle lightsabers effective! (Just think about Gen. Grievous loosing two of his arms after about 2 minutes of fight against Obi)

btw: Wasn't Leviathan also the name of Darth Malak's ship in KOTOR? Howevr it is a sea monster in the bible ;)

That's right, sh4d0w'... My current user-name is based on both these two elements... However, I'm not sure the Leviathan is mentioned for the first time in the Bible, since it is an aquatic monster equally quoted in Scandinavian legends...
Also, dreadlord', I'd not get Empire At War just to see the Emperor's Hand in-game... However, it is a "major" argument for me...

Well, also the Bible got inspirations from somewhere else. And the missionaries were intelligent enough to notice that other peoples will rather accept the Bible if they recognize some of their own elements... But I don't want to start a religious discussion.

btw: Sry for the tripple post. Was a technical mistake.
