HoloNet News — A Galaxy Divided, released on October 2, 2008, is the first installment in an online HoloNet News podcast series written to accompany the development of The Clone Wars television series. It featured an in-universe round-table discussion hosted by Lyrax Pentigure discussing the new Confederatesuperweapon that had recently destroyed a number of Galactic Republic task forces. This was then interrupted by a press release regarding another attack and the Republic's response.
During the debate segment, the scientists discuss the size required for the ship to wield a powerful weapon, with each participant giving a different estimate. This is a reference to the long-lasting "Super Star Destroyer-size" fan discussions.
