Alright, we'll keep with the Star Wars:

Who is the only non Jedi in the original Star Wars trilogy to use a lightsaber?

Well, it could be argued that Darth Vader isn't a Jedi, but a sith.

Other than that, I'd have to say Han Solo, when he cut open the Tauntaun.

Thats probably the right answer but It could be also argued that luke used it before he became a jedi.

I'm pretty sure that Han's the only non-Force user to use the saber, so I'll post my question:

Wolf's Dragoons is correct. Bonus points if you can tell me the Dragoon Rating for the Gray Death Legion.

Your go.

Alas, I kinnae do it lad. I did mightily enjoy the novels about the Legion though, and I do occasionally break out my 'mechs for some tabletop carnage.

Next Question: In the First Edition AD&D manual Deities & Demigods, there was a change made between the first printing and all later printings. Two of the pantheons were removed (I'm assuming that it was due to copyrights) and can only be found in the first-run editions. What two pantheons are they?

The Cthulhu pantheon was removed due to copyright.

Not sure about what the other one was... If I wiki it I could find out.

Posted: Thu Aug 09, 2007 8:22 am

Correct, vtmarik. The other pantheon was based around one of the Eternal Champions (if you've read 'em, you'll get the reference).

I guess I'd better let vtmarik take it for being half correct. The other 'missing' section was the Melnibonean pantheon, based on the Elric saga by Michael Moorcock. Stormbringer was/is one terrifying artifact...
