And off to a start with the species of Star Wars: Episode One: The Phantom Menace, with the "A"s, "B"s and "C"s, of which there were none. So today we've added Aleena, Anx, Asogian, & Bith to the Star Wars D/6 Species Section of the Site.
        Now these are heavily based on the works of others, with the Bith for example being virtually the same as the one from the Rulebook, and only included for the sake of completeness. I'll be continuing to base them off others work, without being bound to them and making changes where I feel it is right.
        With the Species, this will be the last stretch for my completion of The Phantom Menace (after all these years), and I'll catch up with the most recent comics (Vader and The High Republic), before moving onto my least favourite Star Wars Movie, Attack of the Clones. Given the amount that this movie shares with The Clone Wars series, I don't imagine it taking as long to cover as The Phantom Menace has, but we shall see.

        So we finally reach the "Z"s as we move alphabeticaly through the characters of Star Wars: Episode One: The Phantom Menace, and there's only one, Graf Zapalo (Human Naboo Royal Advisor & Master of Sciences) who we've added to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.
        So tomorrow, onto the Species of The Phantom Menace, and with the variety of Aliens seen in the Senate during the movie, there should quite a few to cover.

        With only one "W" left to cover, I've gone onto the "Y"s as well as we alphabetically go through all the characters in Star Wars: Episode One: The Phantom Menace. And today we've added Weazel (Human Thief / Freedom Fighter), Yane (Human Naboo Queens Handmaiden), Senator Yarua (Wookiee Politician), & Senator Baskol Yeesrim (Gran Politician) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.

        Onto the "S"s on our alphabetical trip through the Characters of Star Wars: Episode One: The Phantom Menace, and there's a bunch today, and of course another Pod Racer. So today we've added Elsinore-Cordova Engineering TurboDyne 99-U Pod Racer to the Star Wars D/6 Vehicles Section, Wan Sandage (Devlikk Pod Racer), Seek (Human Child), Diva Shaliqua (Theelin half-breed Slave/Singer), Lufta Shif (Human Naboo Education Regent), Rum Sleg (Humanoid Bounty Hunter), & Stonroy Soma (Alderaanian Political Aide) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.

        I think my memory is going, as I sat down this morning to do the "R"s from Star Wars: Episode One: The Phantom Menace, and thought I'd do all of the Astromechs then the other characters tomorrow. Only to discover I'd done all of the Astromechs just a few weeks ago. Anyway today I've added (yet another Pod Racer), the Vokoff-Strood Plug-8G 927 Cluster Array Podracer to the Star Wars D/6 Vehicles Section, Senator Mot-Not Rab (Tarnab Politician), Mat Rags (Human Mechanic), Ark (Bumpy) Roose (Nuknog Pod Racer), & Senator Horox Ryyder (Anx Politician) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.

        When I first started doing this site, I tended to avoid doing Characters as much as I could, as I found them pretty difficult to judge. Which is ironic given I now think the Characters section of the Site is probably the largest.

        And we reach the "P"s as we go alphabetically through all the characters in Star Wars: Episode One: The Phantom Menace. And today we've added Pampy (Twilek Political Aide), Sergeant Baras Perosei (Human Naboo Palace Guard), & Elnick Pye (Human Explorer/Scout) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.

        So continuing through Star Wars: Episode One: The Phantom Menace, we shoot through the "M"s, "N"s and "O"'s, as I'm not bothering to do individual Trade Federation Droids (as they have no personalities of their own at this point). So today we've added Odin Nesloor (Human Mechanic), Po Nudo (Aqualish Politician), & OrrUrRuuRR (Tusken Raider Sniper) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.

        And yet another Pod Racer as we move through the characters doing "K", "L", & "M" (there were no "L"s to do). I keep finding more, and although the Pod Race was a major scene in the movie, it seems as if half the characters in the film seem to be from this one scene. Anyway, today we've added the Farwan & Glott FG 8T8-Twin Block2 Special Pod Racer to the Star Wars D/6 Vehicles Section, Neva Kee (Xamster Pod Racer), Graxol Kelvyyn (Anx Gambler & Slave Trader), Melee (Human Child/Slave), Liana Merian (Human Alderaanian Political Aide), & Senator Aks Moe (Gran Politician) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.

        So with only one "H", no "I"'s, we've move right up to "J" as we alphabetically move through all the characters in Star Wars: Episode One: The Phantom Menace. And today we've added Tey How (Neimoidian Communications Officer), Jerus Jannick (Human Naboo Security Officer), & Augara Jowil (Gungan Bandleader) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.

        So we're onto the "F"s, but there was only one, so I've gone onto the "G"s as well, so today we've added Onaconda Farr (Rodian Senator), Gragra (Swokes Swokes Merchant), Grebleips (Asogian Senator), Mars Guo (Phuii Pod Racer), & G8-R3 (Naboo Royal Astromech) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section, and yet another Pod Racer (I honestly thought I'd done them all, but there just turns out to be more and more of them, I really don't remember there being this many in the movie), the Collor Pondrat Plug-2 Behemoth Pod Racer has been added to the Star Wars D/6 Vehicles Section of the Site.

        So we're onto "D", but there were only a couple, so I did "E" as well as I work my way through the characters in Star Wars: Episode One: The Phantom Menace, and there's yet another Pod Racer. . . Today I've added JAK Racing J930 Dash-8 Podracer to the Star Wars D/6 Vehicles Section, Ebe E. Endocott (Triffian Pod Racer / Starship Captain), Erdan (Human Slave), Hugo Eckener (Human Naboo Royal Advisor & Chief Architect), Captain Daultay Dofine (Neimoidian Ship Commander), Trade Baron Lufa Danak (Neimoidian Political Aide), & Lana Dobreed (Human Pod Racer Mechanic) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.

        Only a couple in the "C"s today as we work through Wookieepedia alphabetically adding all the characters from the Phantom Menace. And we've added General Tobler Ceel (Gungan Leader), & Ianad Cisma (Sy Myrthian Administrative Aide) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.
        I also realised that it might take longer to get through The Phantom Menace than I thought, as the sheer number of new species which appeared in the Senate is going to take a while to get through when I get onto adding new species. Guess I might not get through all the Prequels before New Year when "The Book of Boba Fett" gets released.

        Onto the "B"s as I work through all the characters in Star Wars: Episode One: The Phantom Menace, and I noticed another Pod Racer, so added his vehicle as well. So today we've added, Kitster Banai (Human Child), Edcel Bar Gane (Roonan Politician), Aldar Beedo (Glymphid Pod Racer), Gardulla Besadii the Elder (Hutt Crimelord), Sio Bibble (Human Governor of Naboo), & Hela Brandes (Human Naboo Royal Music Advisor) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section, & Manta RamAir Mk IV Flat Twin Turbojet Podracer to the Star Wars D/6 Vehicles Section.

        So properly back to Star Wars: Episode One: The Phantom Menace updates, and over the next bunch of days I'll be going through all the characters I've missed alphabetically, today we've got the A's from Wookieepedia. So we've added Agrippa Aldrete (Human/Alderaanian Politician), Bok Askol (Pacithhip Podracer Engineer), Passel Argente (Koorivar Magistrate of the Corporate Alliance / Senator), & Fodesinbeed Annodue (Troig Race Commentator) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.
        Now obviously this will take the next month or so to get through everybody, but I'll mix it up with some of the species we've missed from the movie, etc. And then I'll move onto Episode Two: Attack of the Clones, Episode Three: Revenge of the Sith, and should finish up around New Year, just in time for the Book of Boba Fett series to launch, and start coverage of that. But we'll have to see how timing works out, but that's our current plan. Along with coverage of new issues of The High Republic and Vader comic series as they come out.

        So I'm feeling somewhat better, so I'm going to get back into the Prequel movies and I think we've just got some final mopping up of missing stats from The Phantom Menace before we move onto Attack of the Clones. So today we've got a bunch of animals, and have added Pylat (Decorative Avian), Pelikki, Guarlara (Herbivorous Beast of Burden), Peko-peko (Non Sentient Bird), Mott (Aggressive Herbivore), & Shaak (Edible Herbivore) to the Star Wars D/6 Creatures Section.

        Well I've finished with Visions, but am absolutely floored by a cold (The BBC is calling it the "worst cold ever", and I can't disagree), my son brought it into the house a week ago, and he's still suffering although I seem to be on the mend. So to tide over until I can get back into it, here's a couple of sets of stats which apparently I missed when doing Episodes 8 & 9, Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo (Human Resistance Officer), & Zorii Bliss (Human Pilot/Smuggler) added to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.
        Reading through Holdo's backstory, she has an astounding range of skills, from imbedded agent with Crimson Dawn, legislator for The Empire, through to head of Bomber Command for the Resistance. I've tried to give her all that experience without making her overpowered, but I think that perhaps I should have just put her on a level with Han, Luke & Leia, with skills in the 10D+ range. Let me know what you think?

        Now I think I've actually covered every episode of Visions in some detail, except the first one which I said I'd return to, so back to Star Wars: Visions: Season 1: Episode 1: The Duel, and today we've added Genbara to the Star Wars D/6 Planets & Places Section, & R5-D56 (Astromech Droid belonging to The Ronin) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site. I've also updated the Bandit Leader from the first episode with more accurate information including her name, Kouru (Human Sith Warrior/Bandit Leader).
        I'll have a check through the other episodes and see if I've missed anything for tomorrow, but otherwise it's back to Episode One: The Phantom Menace, and then onto the other Prequels for the same completist treatment I've been giving that movie.

        So we reach the end of Visions, with our review of Star Wars: Visions: Season 1: Episode 9: Akakiri and oh dear, after the joy that was Lop & Ocho, this is a real disappointment. Anyway, today we've added Masago (Human Sith Queen), Misa (Human Female Princess), Tsubaki (Human Jedi Knight), Senshu (Human Tracker/Guide), & Kamahachi (Human Guide/Trader) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.

 I said the other day that this is easier when I'm enthused about what I'm doing, well Star Wars: Visions: Season 1: Episode 8: Lop & Ocho was a geniunely great episode, so loads of updates today based on it. So today we've added Lop (Lepi Yasaburo Clanswoman), Ocho (Human Yasaburo Clanswoman/Imperial Officer), Yasaburo (Human Clan Leader), TD-4 (Droid Companion), Kaku & Suke (Human Yasaburo Clansmen), & Unidentified Tao Imperial officer (Human Imperial Officer) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section, Corellian Engineering Corporation Imperial Cargo Shuttle & Imperial Transport to the Star Wars D/6 Starships Section, SLA-93 Land Speeder to the Star Wars D/6 Vehicles Section, Side glasses to the Star Wars D/6 Equipment Section, Yasaburo family heirloom lightsaber Star Wars D/6 Weapons Section, & Tao to the Star Wars D/6 Planets & Places Section of the Site.

        And we're getting towards the end of this series with our review of Star Wars: Visions: Season 1: Episode 7: The Elder, and today we've added The Elder (Human Dark Side Adept), Dan Gvash (Human Jedi Padawan), & Tajin Crosser (Human Jedi Master) to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section, Vamga to the Star Wars D/6 Creatures Section, & Habo to the Star Wars D/6 Planets & Places Section of the Site.

        And we reach Star Wars: Visions: Season 1: Episode 6: T0-B1, so we've added C03 (Repair Droid), Professor Mitaka (Human Jedi/Scientist), T0-B1 (Droid Jedi/Scientist), & Inquisitor to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.
        I have to admit that by this point in Star Wars: Visions, it's becoming a bit of a chore each day to cover the episodes, grinding my way through the stats. The episodes aren't terrible, but I find this a lot easier if I'm enthused by what I'm covering. So even though I don't think Episode One: The Phantom Menace is a great movie, searching the movie for new stuff to add excited me and made me enjoy updating the site in a way Visions has totally failed to,
        Oh well, three episodes to go, perhaps there's something in there I'll love, or otherwise, at least it's only 3 more episodes.

        And we reach what many people have been calling the best episode of VIsions, Star Wars: Visions: Season 1: Episode 5: The Ninth Jedi. And based on this today we've added Steward Droid Disguise to the Star Wars D/6 Equipment Section, 99-99 (Four Nines) (Service Droid), Margrave Juro (Human Jedi/Leader of Hy Izlan), Ethan (Human Masterless Jedi), Homen (Alien Redeemed Sith Warrior), Lah Kara (Human Potential Jedi), Lah Zhima (Human Sabersmith), Hen Jin (Sith Warrior), Niizo (Alien Sith Warrior), Roden (Human Sith Warrior), Hanbei (Alien Sith Warrior), Toguro (Sith Warrior), & Boatman droid (Droid Pilot) all to the Star Wars D/6 Characters Section of the Site.
        I was going to split all of these over a couple of days, but it's a Saturday, what else better could I be doing?

        Although I've just written my review for the next episode of Visions, today I'd actually like to announce an update to the YT-Series designer.

        I've added a bunch on new parts to make ships with, Cockpits, Sensors, Weapons, Mandibles and Engines. Everything except new Docking Ports really, and I've reworked the options panels, putting each into it's own little scrollable area, so they all fit on the page and you can see the changes you're making rather than making a change then scrolling back up to the image of the ship.

        I've played with it and tested it quite heavily over the past day or so, but if you spot any bugs or problems, please let me know.
