Episode productionEdit

"It wasn't really a structure that we looked at and said, 'Okay, we're going to have stories that are more introspective and about politics.' It simply came down to the production schedule."
―Dave Filoni, on Season Three's political interlude[src]

This is the order in which the episodes of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars television series were produced. As it can be seen, the episodes tend to jump around the timeline while being produced and are not commonly made in their chronological story arcs.

Season TwoEdit

"We had some leftover stories from Season Two that got put on the back-burner when we stared doing stories like the Boba Fett arc. You want to end the season on something like Boba Fett, and what you get in the latter half of the season are the types [of] stories that you're going to be seeing for a long time to come."
―Dave Filoni[src]

As character models are redesigned (namely Commander Wolffe for this season), these changes are noted where applicable so that their development can be traced through the production order of episodes—as opposed to the airing order, which is often modified from the production order.

Season ThreeEdit

"Do you think there'll be any more episodes that take place in the past?"
"Right now, there's nothing like that on the schedule. I suppose if we have a really good reason, it might happen, but the writers and I went to George and said that we'd really like to keep moving forward. I think George tied together what he wanted to from the first two seasons on the front half of the third season. That was another reason why we had a lot of stories that were jumping around—George wanted to resolve a couple of things once he had done Seasons One and Two."
―Jonathan Wilkins from Star Wars Insider interviews Dave Filoni[src]

As new character models are introduced, these changes are noted where applicable so that their development can be traced through the production order of episodes—as opposed to the airing order, which is often modified from the production order.

Timeline issuesEdit

"We tell arcs and they're not implicitly connected, but you get a better sense of where they are. And I have a massive timeline that explains where all the other episodes sit. So one day we'll release that and you can sit down and figure that out and I'm sure that will be the day that someone finds a continuity error, but you know… Then we'll fix it and we'll be fine!"
―Dave Filoni[src]

The following is my attempt as a chronologist to organize all of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars episodes and related media where possible in a relative timeline so that I can claim credit for it if and when Lucasfilm Ltd. makes its own. (I'm joking, of course. Well, half-joking.) This analysis is meant to be used as a resource for sorting appearances throughout the series so that I might enable others to avoid the headaches that I get myself from trying to do so. I envision this as a method to ruling out the ways that the timeline cannot be organized. Please note that as this timeline is fan-made, it is nowhere near official and should therefore not be treated as such.

All episodes and related media are grouped by story arcs, which incorporate all directly confirmed chronology. Although I do not normally support speculation, some instances of it will be found throughout the following outline to help suggest more indicators to the chronology beyond those ones that are already confirmed. For a list of helpful and confirmed indicators to the timeline, see the bottom.

A more generally grouped listing of the battles and events can be found here.

The (c.) 21 BBY dateEdit

"So she's sixteen now? I think when the series started, she was around fourteen."
"Yeah, she was—from what I was told, I mean, I don't know what's official and written in Wookieepedia, but I was told she was fourteen when it started, and so now she's sixteen. That's what's been told to me—who knows."
―Jimmy Mac and Ashley Eckstein, on Ahsoka Tano[src]

Originally, The Clone Wars was set in 22 BBY. The Clone Wars film (August 2008) was first placed "swiftly after the Battle of Geonosis" of 22 BBY, per the film's opening newsreel, though this did not set anything in stone. Similarly, The Clone Wars novelization (July 2008) indicated that Anakin Skywalker was twenty years old at the time—since he had been born in 41.9 BBY, The Clone Wars was thus placed in circa 22 BBY.

In the "Ask Lobot" department of Star Wars Insider 104 (September 2008), Holocron continuity database keeper Leland Chee responded to a question about the chronological placement of The Clone Wars film (and series) in existing continuity. Though he confirmed that there was still no officially posted timeline for the series at the time, Chee stated that the series had to take place after the following events (specific events and dates from the original Clone Wars timeline are reflected in parentheses, added by the author):

When The Clone Wars: Wild Space (December 2008) came around, it was cemented as "ten years" after Skywalker's arrival at the Jedi Temple, capping off the events of The Clone Wars film in 22 BBY. The Clone Wars: No Prisoners (May 2009) repeated the 22 BBY date, mentioning that it was "not even a year" since the Battle of Geonosis. Following the other The Clone Wars comics' relative ambiguity with dating, Star Wars: The Clone Wars: The Wind Raiders of Taloraan (May 2009) was also placed "within the first year of the Clone Wars."

The Official Episode Guide: Season 1 (October 2009) was the first to move the timeline forward, indicating that the events of "Blue Shadow Virus" took place "eleven years" after the Invasion of Naboo and thus introducing the 21 BBY date. Clone Wars Gambit: Stealth (February 2010) continued to advance the timeline, being placed eleven years after Skywalker left Tatooine.

Here is the first chronology of TCW events, taking place from 22 to 21 BBY:

As the above chronology shows, The Clone Wars was potentially intended to completely override the Star Wars: Republic comic series (Clone Wars events, 2003–2006), which portrayed the Clone Wars over three years (and Skywalker still as a Padawan for the majority of the war). Three weeks would hardly have been enough for the entirety of those comics, or even other stories like Star Wars: Clone Wars (2003–2005), to occur. However, the Star Wars Annual 2011 (September 2010) published its own timeline following The Clone Wars novel series' own attempt, giving more breathing room for Republic.

  • 22 BBY - Battle of Geonosis
  • 22 BBY - Clone Wars begin
  • 22 BBY - Marriage of Anakin and Padme
  • 21 BBY - Anakin becomes a Jedi Knight
  • 21 BBY - Battle of Christophsis
  • 21 BBY - Battle of Teth
  • 21 BBY - Hunt for the Malevolence
  • 21 BBY - Battle of Ryloth
  • 21 BBY - Second Battle of Geonosis

All 22 BBY dates have subsequently been overridden, and The Clone Wars thus begins in 21 BBY. Where it will end (and if it will leave room for Republic to be incorporated into the new Clone Wars timeline) is anyone's guess.

According to Ahsoka Tano voice actor Ashley Eckstein in Fall 2011, Tano is around sixteen years old at the time of Season Four (the "Battle of Mon Cala" story arc), as compared to her age of fourteen at the beginning of the series (the Battle of Christophsis). The end of Season Three and the start of Season Four (beginning with the story arc "The Push for Peace," with the new character models?) can thus approximated to c. 19 BBY…? However, this has yet to be solidified in an official source, especially given the drastic two-year span that this places over the series' first, second, and third seasons.

Story arcsEdit

"But there is a big chart that explains where 'Clone Cadets' relates to 'Rookies' and 'ARC Troopers.' Because those episodes don't really happen so concurrently, as you notice, because the Domino Squad leaves Kamino and then a whole bunch of stuff happens and then they're on the Rishi moon and then a whole bunch more happens and then you have 'ARC Troopers.' So that's all worked out and one day we'll share it with you."
―Dave Filoni. Until then…see below.[src]

Battle of Christophsis

Battle of Christophsis · Battle of Teth · Battle of Akoshissss · Mission to Jabba's Palace · Raid on Ziro's Palace

  • Supplied date in overall canon: 21 BBY, per the Star Wars Annual 2011
2 Mission to Rugosa3.jpg

Toydarian Neutrality

Battle of Ryloth · Mission to Toydaria · Mission to Rugosa

Battle of Ryloth · Battle of Juma 9 · Mission to Alzoc III · Battle of Behpour
Republic Heroes Nintendo DS edition (canon?): Second Mission to Vassek's third moon · Mission to Mustafar
  • Definitely after the Battle of Christophsis, per Tano's apprenticeship to Skywalker
  • Definitely after Toydarian Neutrality, per the initial stages of the Battle of Ryloth portrayed in "Supply Lines"; likely shortly after Toydarian Neutraliy, as a battle can only be prolonged so much
  • Supplied date in overall canon: 21 BBY, per the Star Wars Annual 2011
  • Word of caution: none of the Ryloth arc's webcomics occur directly before each episode (in fact, all seem to take place before "Storm Over Ryloth"), so a proper amount of time should be kept between them

Barab I · Falleen · Battle of Bothawui · Mission to the Vulture's Claw · Battle of Agomar · Korriban · Lanos · Zigoola · Mission to suspected Confederate space · Mission to Skytop Station

  • Definitely after Toydarian Neutrality, per the destruction of the Laudable in Shakedown (and its previous appearance in Prelude)
  • Definitely after the Loss of R2-D2 (despite TCW's disregard for Wild Space), as the "Shadow of Malevolence" Episode Guide confirms that Skywalker's wariness with Tano's piloting stems from her maneuver of the Twilight in "Downfall of a Droid"
  • Likely shortly after Shipyards of Gwori, per Skywalker's line in Shipyards of Doom alluding to the Malevolence
  • Supplied date in overall canon: 21 BBY, per the Star Wars Annual 2011
8 Mission to Kynachi.jpg

Breakout the Squad

Mission to Kynachi · Battle of Defence Force Station Ifpe'a · Mission to Bilbringi Depot · Mission to Vaced

9 EchoFives99-ARCT.jpg

Rookies Defend Kamino

Battle of Mimban · Battle of the Rishi moon · Battle of Kamino
  • Definitely after the Battle of Christophsis (at least for "ARC Troopers"), per the Trident drill assault craft Encyclopedia entry, which states that the Battle of Kamino was after Ventress's kidnapping of Rotta the Huttlet (Battle of Christophsis story arc)
  • Possibly after Toydarian Neutrality and the Loss of R2-D2 per the following indicators
  • Possibly after the Rise of the Malevolence, as BTL-B Y-wing starfighters (which were commissioned during that story arc) are present in "ARC Troopers," and because Yularen seems relatively familiar with Skywalker in "Rookies" (having apparently met him in "Cat and Mouse")
  • Word of caution about the chronology between "Rookies" and "ARC Troopers": the latter takes place a few months after the former per Defenders of the Republic, so a suitable amount of time should be kept between them; Filoni himself has stated that the three episodes are not so chronologically close together as they would appear
  • According to the Star Wars: The Clone Wars Magazine 6, Kenobi's and Grievous's duel at the Battle of Kamino represents one of their "earliest encounters"
10 Podracing on Mon Gazza.jpg

  • Supplied date in overall canon: "approximately 22 BBY," though this has been overridden by the Star Wars Annual 2011 (which places TCW in 21 BBY or later)
17 Skywalker, Tano gall.jpg

The Early War

Battle of Gall · Battle of Taronda · Siege of Tambor Deep Space Centre · Mission to the Deyvus · Mission to Maarka · Skirmish at the Quingarus Deluxe Droid Systems Factory · Mission to Belgaroth · Mission to Hakara · Mission to Nar Hekka · Mission to the Mirial asteroid belt outpost
  • Definitely after the Battle of Christophsis, per Tano's apprenticeship to Skywalker
    • Does not apply to The Droid Deception, Foreclosure, The Guns of Nar Hekka, or In the Air
  • Inside Job and Milk Run to Maarka! are apparently after the Occupation of Ryloth, as per Star Wars: The Clone Wars Comic UK 6.23, R7-A7 (who first appeared in "Storm Over Ryloth" and appears in said comics) has been serving Tano "since the strike on Ryloth"

Shipwrecked Jedi

Battle of unidentified planet (tactical droid) · Sky Battle of Quell · Defense of Maridun
  • Definitely after the Battle of Christophsis, per Tano's apprenticeship to Skywalker
  • Supplied date in overall canon: 21 BBY, as battles before (Battle of Christophsis) and after it (Gambit: Stealth's Battle of Kothlis) are in 21 BBY
  • Word of caution about the chronology between Headgames and "Jedi Crash": unlike most of the other prelude webcomics, Headgames does not occur just before its accompanying episode ("Jedi Crash"), but takes place "some time before" it, so a proper amount of time needs to be kept between the two

Time Passes
New Skywalker, Kenobi, and Tano models

All episodes after this time marker feature new character models for a number of main characters (mainly Kenobi, Skywalker, and Tano), indicating the passage of time.
  • As confirmed by the "Heroes on Both Sides" Episode Guide, all future episodes and story arcs should be placed at the "furthest point in the [Clone Wars] timeline"—a.k.a. after all pre-existing story arcs (1 to 46, except for 13 and 14). Directly confirmed chronology will still be noted as necessary to solidify all irrefutable chronology.
  • After this "unspecified" passage of time, Tano is definitely older, per the guide for "Heroes on Both Sides," and a certain amount of time has passed between that episode and her last appearance (in "Assassin," most likely, which aired last and is apparently the latest in chronology?).

All episodes after this time marker feature new character models for the clone troopers, with more advanced facial modeling in addition to the recently implemented Phase II armor.

AppearancesEdit

"Ahsoka is now older; there is an unspecified passage of time between this episode and her last appearance. With the start of this arc, which continues in 'Pursuit of Peace' and concludes in Season Two's 'Senate Murders,' the Clone Wars storyline advances to its furthest point in the timeline, and subsequent episodes should continue going forward without as much jumping back and forth."
―"Heroes on Both Sides" Episode Guide[src]

The following is a suggested list for all appearances organized in the above order. Please note that apart from campaigns like the "Geonosis Saga," "Mission on Iceberg Three," and "Battle of Umbara" or story-specific games like "Aquatic Assault," mini-games from the Star Wars: Clone Wars Adventures video game such as "Starfighter" and "Republic Defender" are not listed here because of their relative chronological ambiguity. Please refer back to the above list for their placement.

SourcesEdit

"This episode, more than others, reveals the convoluted chronology of stories from the first two seasons."
―"Assassin" Episode Guide—and I would be lying if I said I did not wholeheartedly agree with it.[src]

The following is a list of all non-appearance sources that have been particularly useful in establishing this timeline or have at least acknowledged the delicate and temperamental chronology situation. The early Season Three Episode Guides were rather helpful in this respect (more helpful that the first two seasons' guides, at least).

Notes on the muddleEdit

"Chronologically, this episode precedes all the others that have been broadcast thus far. 'Cat and Mouse' is followed by Season One's 'The Hidden Enemy' and then an episode originally titled 'The New Padawan' that was re-edited into The Clone Wars feature film."
―"Cat and Mouse" Episode Guide. Hmm…[src]
  • Primary indicators: whether Ahsoka Tano is actually there or not, how mature she is (as supplied by Filoni in The Official Episode Guide: Season 1), and how developed Rex's personality is. The time indicator with Tano has been made more distinguishable starting with Season Three's "Heroes on Both Sides," which features new character models for both her and other main characters, aging her and indicating a passage of time.
    • Other indicators: deaths of characters (e.g. Denal, Ponds, Onaconda Farr, Todo 360) and starships (Resolute)
  • The "Cat and Mouse" Episode Guide has claimed that all TCW episodes follow the feature film. However, this has yet to be more definitively solidified in an official source.
  • The television series has serious problems with The Clone Wars novel series—and earlier canon. The latter is to be expected, of course.
    • The television series has all but ignored Wild Space so far, as sources chronologically prior to the Loss of R2-D2 (namely, "Cat and Mouse") have featured the Resolute, overriding the cruiser's commission in Wild Space. This has thus been dropped as a chronology indicator. "Downfall of a Droid" has also conflicted with Wild Space (or vice versa, even) by ignoring the novel's gap between the Battle of Bothawui and the Mission to suspected Confederate space.
    • In Clone Wars Gambit: Stealth (part of the Gambit on Lanteeb arc), Anakin Skywalker mentions that the "last time" he engaged General Grievous was in the Battle of Bothawui—even though he previously fought him in the Battle of the Kaliida Nebula. In addition, Obi-Wan Kenobi is portrayed to not yet be on the Jedi High Council in Gambit: Stealth, though it is unknown if other sources will respect this detail.
    • So far, it is supremely unclear whether Gambit on Lanteeb or Treaties on Taloraan comes first, as both deal with battles at Kothlis and neither make any sort of reference to the other. (It's almost certain that the battles weren't one and the same.) Basically, it is possible for either to come first at this point. This is also the case for Bane's Work for Sidious and Pirates and Bounty Hunters; the former story arc features the Separatists seizing Felucia, while the latter has a Republic base on the world. The Felucia conflict even extends to Trandoshan Hunt, in which the Battle of Felucia is portrayed but isn't clarified to be the First Battle of Felucia. Thank you, Clone Wars.
  • Season Three has been the cause of most of the timeline reshuffling, as it is made up of a good deal of prequels and sequels to existing story lines. In particular, "Supply Lines" has introduced yet another chronology issue. While it places the Occupation of Ryloth arc just after Toydarian Neutrality, this conflicts with Covetous, as Wat Tambor buys his spy droid during the Loss of R2-D2 arc (in Discount) and later uses it during the Ryloth arc. Despite the clear disruption that the revision causes with Tambor's droid and Tano's rise in maturity throughout Season One, it is for now treated as canon until a better solution can be found.
    • Starting with "Heroes on Both Sides" (and continuing with "Pursuit of Peace" and "Senate Murders"), The Clone Wars "advances to its furthest point in the timeline," per the "Heroes on Both Sides" Episode Guide. This new, escalating phase of the war apparently continues to push forward "without as much jumping back and forth."
    • Filoni has stated that following "Heroes on Both Sides," the Season Three (and post–Season Three) episodes move forward in a "linear" fashion. However, a detailed chronology has still yet to be released to set everything more in stone.
  • A conflict similar to the Clone Wars Gambit: Steath/The Wind Raiders of Taloraan issue arises between Shipyards of Doom and "The Citadel." Although the latter episode apparently takes place after Shipyards of Doom, per the Season Three character model changes, both Skywalker and Rex state in "The Citadel" that they have never been frozen in carbonite before—despite the fact that "The Citadel" Episode Guide even references Shipyards of Doom. In spite of this blatant, disappointing, and downright uncalled for disregard for TCW's inner works, the chronology is kept in the logical order until confirmed otherwise.
  • On a similar note but smaller scale, Leisure does not reference Tano's familiarity with podracing from Crash Course, despite the fact that Leisure must occur sometime after Crash Course due to the Season Three model changes reflected in the comic.

The Clone Wars retconsEdit

Naturally, as a television series set in one of the most source-heavy, scrutinized periods in galactic history, the Star Wars: The Clone Wars television series is likely to rewrite canon in certain areas. I have therefore compiled a list of all of the major canonical retcons to original Star Wars canon so that they and their statuses can be tracked. The obvious timeline issue is not listed here because it would take up too much space with its grossness.

Skywalker's Knighthood

Star Wars: Republic The Clone Wars television series In the Republic comic series, Anakin Skywalker was Knighted in 19 BBY, toward the end of the Clone Wars. However, The Clone Wars revised this by portraying Skywalker as a Knight much earlier in the war. It was initially assumed that The Clone Wars takes place in 22 BBY, which presented a massive timeline revamp of a horde of earlier Clone Wars campaigns. Semi-resolved. The Star Wars Annual 2011 places Skywalker's ascension to Knighthood in 21 BBY as somewhat of a compromise. Leland Chee has stated that the Clone Wars timeline will be untangled when the series ends.

Ventress's Disappearance

Star Wars: Republic The Clone Wars television series In the Republic comic series, Asajj Ventress goes missing after The Dreadnaughts of Rendili, and she is presumed dead until Star Wars: Obsession. However, because The Clone Wars takes place after her duel on Coruscant with Skywalker, per the latter's scar from the incident, it was assumed that her appearance in The Clone Wars occurs between Star Wars: Republic and Obsession, disrupting her presumed death. Unresolved. No effort yet has been made to smooth out this conflict, although Leland Chee has stated that the Clone Wars timeline will be untangled when the series ends.

Naboo's Queen

Databank entry for Apailana "Blue Shadow Virus" In earlier sources, including the Databank, Queen Jamillia is succeeded by Queen Apailana between Episodes II and III. However, in "Blue Shadow Virus," The Clone Wars inserts its own Queen, Neeyutnee, into the established chronology. The date for the transition between Jamilia and Neeyutnee, at least, was provided. Resolved. No major conflicts remain other than revised source material.
Ryloth aftermath.jpg

Tide-Locked Ryloth

Sources including Star Wars: Republic "Liberty on Ryloth" In earlier sources, including Star Wars: Republic, Ryloth is portrayed as a non-rotating, tide-locked world. However, "Liberty on Ryloth" challenges this fact by clearly portraying day and night on Ryloth, ignoring the world's earlier tide-locked state. Resolved. The Essential Atlas solidified the retcon by stating that Ryloth was a terrestrial, rotating planet, though other parts of the earlier material were salvaged.

Eeth Koth

Inside the Worlds of Star Wars: Attack of the Clones "Grievous Intrigue" Inside the Worlds of Star Wars: Attack of the Clones originally killed off Jedi Master Eeth Koth in the First Battle of Geonosis, though his death was not directly seen on-screen. "Grievous Intrigue" later resurrected Koth for an appearance in The Clone Wars. Resolved. Supervising Director Dave Filoni received permission from George Lucas to bring Koth back, and Leland Chee cited the change in a blog update.

Mandalore

Republic Commando series "The Mandalore Plot" In the Republic Commando series, Mandalore planet was portrayed as a normal world. However, "The Mandalore Plot" revised this by portraying it as a world reeling from a conflict with the Republic and recovering under the New Mandalorian regime. Semi-resolved. The Clone Wars has revised the earlier material, though it has not been stated which parts of Republic Commando are still salvageable.

Onaconda Farr

Republic HoloNet News Core Edition 15:3:02 "Senate Murders" This edition of Republic HoloNet News portrayed Onaconda Farr as stepping down from his Senate post after his actions resulted in a Confederate victory at the Battle of Duro. However, "Senate Murders" contradicted this storyline by showing Farr's death. Since it was unlikely that Farr resigned, resumed his senatorial position, and then died, these sources conflict with each other. Semi-resolved. The Clone Wars has revised the earlier material, though it has not been stated which parts of Republic HoloNet News are still salvageable.

Malastare Government

Sources including Star Wars: Republic: Emissaries to Malastare "The Zillo Beast" Originally, per sources like Emissaries to Malastare, Malastare was portrayed as a predominantly Gran-ruled world. However, "The Zillo Beast" contradicted this by showing a Dug council in control of Malastare's fuel reserves. Resolved. Leland Chee has stated that the Grans controlled the planetary government, while the Dugs separately controlled the fuel reserves.

Boba Fett's Revenge

Boba Fett: Pursuit Originally, Boba Fett was not to encounter and attempt to kill Mace Windu until Pursuit. However, the episodes "Death Trap," "R2 Come Home," and "Lethal Trackdown" repeated this storyline to a certain degree by showing Fett going after Windu apparently earlier in the war. Aurra Sing, who was involved with Fett in the Boba Fett series, was also part of the new The Clone Wars storyline. Semi-resolved. Not essentially a major conflict, but a notable one nonetheless; the contradictions between Pursuit and The Clone Wars, if any, have yet to be officially resolved.
Grievous Rookies.jpg

Grievous and Ventress

"Rogue's Gallery" "ARC Troopers" In Rogue's Gallery, Grievous and Asajj Ventress had their first encounter on the Trenchant space station. However, "ARC Troopers" and its Episode Guide contradicted this earlier source by showing Grievous's and Ventress's first face-to-face meeting at the Battle of Kamino, despite the fact that "ARC Troopers" obviously takes place after Rogue's Gallery. Semi-resolved. The Clone Wars has revised the earlier material, though it has not been stated which parts of Rogue's Gallery are still salvageable.

Greedo's Age

Sources including A Hunter's Fate: Greedo's Tale "Sphere of Influence" Per A Hunter's Fate, Greedo's birth year was originally 19 BBY, so that he would be relatively young and inexperienced at the time of his death in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. However, "Sphere of Influence" distorted this viewpoint by showing a post-adolescent Greedo prior to the end of the Clone Wars in 19 BBY. Resolved. Leland Chee has placed Greedo's new birth year as circa 44 BBY, though it has not been stated which parts of all of the earlier sources are salvageable.

Gardulla the Hutt

Star Wars: Bounty Hunter "Hunt for Ziro" Gardulla the Hutt originally died in 32 BBY in Bounty Hunter, when she was fed to her own krayt dragon. However, she was brought back for "Hunt for Ziro," set during the Clone Wars. Resolved. Leland Chee has stated that Gardulla's dragon found her "indigestible," so her death in Bounty Hunter has been overlooked with relatively little conflict.

Ventress's Origins

Star Wars: Republic 60: Hate and Fear "Nightsisters" In Hate and Fear, Asajj Ventress's origins as the daughter of Rattatak warlords was explored. However, "Nightsisters" completely revised this story, instead portraying Ventress as the daughter of a Nightsister on Dathomir. Her mentors and guardians were also changed to predominantly Hal'Sted and Ky Narec, instead of her Rattataki parents and Narec in the original comic. Additionally, her species was changed from Rattataki to Dathomirian. Resolved. The change of Ventress's homeworld and species (to Dathomir and Dathomiri, respectively) was first alluded to in her Clone Card for "ARC Troopers." Despite the upheaval that "Nightsisters" caused, Leland Chee was able to outline her "true" (new) backstory in an article in Star Wars Insider 122.
