Finally managed to score a copy of Jedi's Honor at a good price. Found something somewhere - don't remember where - that laid out the "historically accurate" path through the adventure to maintain continuity with the films.

It mentions variations through the path noted in brackets, but doesn't explain how many "original" game elements the numbers replace.

It starts out "1-23-28-31-9-17-22 (or 32-26)"

So, does 32-26 replace 17-22, or replace just 22 with 32 OR 26, or replace 22 with 32 AND 26? There's about four or five spots like that through the path of the game.

What's the pattern?

I moved this to the General Star Wars forum as this is not an RPG adventure but rather a purely "choose your own adventure" book (narrative choices only, no game mechanics).

It has always bothered me that WEG labeled this and Scoundrel's Luck as "adventures" which is misleading. It is almost as if they were marketing these to RPG customers... hmm...

I'm sorry that I don't know.

I was a big fan of Choose Your Own Adventure series in elementary school. (Incidentally it was getting into RPGs that put my original CYOA fandom into decline.) I tracked this book down when my son was little and we read it a couple times. We didn't care for it.

May I ask why it is important to you to map out the canon path of this book? Are you converting it to an RPG adventure but making it more rail-roady to make sure it follows the canon path of the narrative?

I found the complete path - someone else mapped it out - I just noted the first part of it. Trying to understand how the parts in the brackets work - are they "either/or" choices or do I need to read both, and do they only replace the single number immediately before them or, as in the first example, the two previous numbers?

I'm just curious as to how well it fits into canon one way or the other.
