Wir beginnen mal wieder eine Reihe zu Legends-Büchern. Nach der Thrawn-Trilogie und der Hand von Thrawn-Trilogie, gehen wir mal weg von blauen Wesen. Stattdessen geht es um Darth Bane, den sogenannten Schöpfer der Dunkelheit und Begründer der Regel der Zwei. Anlässlich der Neuveröffentlichung der Trilogie durch Blanvalet in diesem Jahr wird es auch Zeit, im JediCast mal über diese bekannten Werke zu sprechen. Und Ines, Matthias und Tobias wurden keinesfalls enttäuscht. Langweilig oder gar beiläufig ist an diesem Werk nichts. Im Podcast geht es um die Rolle der Bruderschaft der Dunkelheit als Zuschauer ihres eigenen Untergangs. Es geht um die Frage, wie grandios es der Roman schafft, die Dunkle Seite darzustellen und ihre Benutzung mit mehr als reinem Hass zu verbinden. Zuletzt geht es um nichts weniger als einen anderen Blick auf all die anderen Sith-Lords, die wir jahrelang in Romanen, Serien und Filmen gesehen haben. Wenn das alles nur nicht so schnell gehen würde... Zeitmarken 00:00:00 - Begrüßung 00:02:26 - Erste Berührungspunkte mit dem Werk 00:07:15 - Um was geht es eigentlich? 00:07:58 - Die größte Stärke 00:11:40 - Wird es noch besser? 00:13:35 - Spoiler ab hier: Die Handlung 00:16:36 - Böse Mine zum guten Spiel 00:24:29 - Bruderschaft (in) der Dunkelheit 00:32:26 - Banes Achterbahn der Reputation 00:47:52 - Wie böse hätten sie es gerne? 00:59:32 - Schrödingers Githany 01:05:49 - Hoth und Half-Bothan 01:16:41 - Die Gedanken sind frei 01:25:36 - Speedrun zum Sith 01:33:17 - Popcorn oder Philosophie-Seminar? 01:36:25 - Ach ja, da fehlt ja noch ne Schülerin 01:39:26 - Fazit Blick in die Datenbank Zur Werksübersicht von Darth Bane: Schöpfer der Dunkelheit, geschrieben von Drew Karpyshyn Der Roman erschien erstmals am 26. September 2006 auf Englisch bei Del Rey. Im Jahr 2021 folgte eine Neuveröffentlichung im Zuge der Essential Legends Collection. Am 22. April 2026 wurde das Werk auch in Deutschland mit neuem Cover neu veröffentlicht. Zudem erschien am 20. April 2026 erstmals eine deutschsprachige Hörbuchversion, gelesen von Richard Barenberg. Die Rezensionen Maximilian hat die Taschenbuchausgabe aus dem Jahr 2014 rezensiert und dabei vor allem die Einsteigerfreundlichkeit des Werks gelobt. Er resümierte: "Es gibt eine Reise durch die Galaxis, in einem gewissen Grad wird die Vorgeschichte zu Episode I erklärt und es wird kaum bis gar kein Vorwissen benötigt, um die Handlung zu verstehen." Tobias hat sich das Werk im Zuge der Neuauflage von Blanvalet genauer angeschaut und sich oftmals etwas überwältigt gefühlt von all der Handlung, die dort in kürzester Zeit erzählt wird. Trotzdem oder gerade deswegen hatte er Spaß mit dem Werk und schreibt: "Alle Fans der Alten Republik, von Videospielen wie eben KOTOR oder SWTOR oder schlicht Geschichten rund um die Sith und deren Ab- und Aufstieg, machen mit diesem Buch in keinem Fall etwas falsch. Es ist durch seine schnelle Erzählung extrem kurzweilig und motiviert zum Weiterlesen – so zumindest bei mir." Den JediCast abonnieren Wir sind auf allen gängigen Podcast-Plattformen vertreten!

Boats are fun! New World will officially shutdown its servers January 31, 2027. We are still there! Keep an eye on the channel in nomads for a possible farewell as the end draws near. Valheim 5 Year Celebration and Regular Update. AIE Valheim Community Server Information is pinned in the AIE Discord #Nomads channel WoW Noob Raid had a great final run of Manaforge Omega on pre-Midnight launch – clearing both Normal and Heroic! Dankinia will be taking a break until the first raid in Midnight is released, around early April. Midnight launched on 3/2, with early access for folks who prepurchased expected to begin 2/27. Lots more about Midnight from our lovely guests later in the show. Player housing. This new feature is time consuming but a great deal of fun. The creativity of our Guildies is amazing to behold! WoW Classic As Jehdai pointed out, we have our first 70 (Sethos) and light activity on the 20th Anniversary TBC launch on Dreamscythed Horde side. We have the guild available with the guild bank open and invite others to join us in Outland. In other Classic news: Reminder that there are now 3 launchers for Classic (‘Original’, ‘Anniversary’, ‘Era’) “Original” Classic is progressing with Mists of Pandaria. The guild is available on Horde side on Galakras. If I have this right, MoP classic uses the modern guild interface so we have the new interface showing 651 members. “Anniversary” Classic which is now at TBC as mentioned above. “Era” classic is a separate launcher with 3 game modes: ‘Classic Era’ which is forever frozen in the original game (pre-TBC). We were on Mankrik here but really no activity or guild. “Season of Discovery” which is where experiments were performed by the devs which some expect may lead to the anticipated “Classic Plus” many hope for. We have no real activity there currently. “Hardcore” is the 3rd game mode in the Era client and probably our 2nd most active within the classic modes. We have an Alliance side guild on Doomhowl and some activity on the Horde side of Doomhowl but no guild currently. Lars plans to return to his attempt at a “Solo Self-Found” run to 60 in Hardcore but that has been on pause for quite some time. We did have guild members make it to 60 on the hardcore server previously. Ravisant is ProffessorWC or Sethos one of the raid leaders from HoG SWTOR In Swtor this week, we are ready for Update 7.8.1, Master’s Enigma. It will bring a story piece, Galactic Seasons 10, new date nights, and the Spring Abundance Festival. The story finale is coming in the June timeframe to make room for 8.0 at the end of the year. We continue to do our MFN on Tuesday nights. Please join us. There are no gear or level requirements, but you may need to have gotten your personal ship as we do tend to travel about.

Earning reputation with each syndicate gains new abilities to use during the contract runs. Not much going on Guild wise. Things are pretty slow overall in Destiny 2, the community is waiting on the new Roadmap to see where things are going. Rumors and hopes are high that a Destiny 3 gets announced. If you are in Destiny 2 and Just_Wargus online feel free to reach out for a hand with anything. ARK – got a pretty dedicated group in there right now WoW Resting up for prepatch of Midnight. Housing is going well. Remix winding down. Noob Raid started up again after its holiday break. A new addon, XFaction for cross guild communication is working well. The last days of Legion Remix are upon us. We are in the final 7 days, so get those last minute runs done now. There is still transmog gear to grind, pets, mounts, and exclusive legion remix only housing items to grab before they are gone. If you ever wanted those legion artifact appearances, this is it. SWTOR In SWTOR, we closed out 2025 with our Winter Nights celebration which was 4 evenings of guild activities including a tour of World Bosses where we took a piece of armor off after each successive fight, stronghold tours, dressing up in our Life Day finest, a clothing drive on the starter planets, a parade of Life Day mounts, and a cracking good trivia night. Great way to spend the last gaming week of 2025. On to 2026! Next week is Total Galactic War! Again! This time we are ready for it. Mostly. We will be maximizing conquest points this week by doing group activities, crafting, and class stories. GSF and pvp are also good ways to rack up the points, if you are so inclined. Keep an eye on discord for any last minute group stuff that may pop up. ESO Nothing new really. It's been quiet due to the holidays. FFXIV Just had a new patch and things are going well. New MSQ, Savage raid tier is open and the world first race is already over. New trial with a train, new Unreal trial with everyone's favorite lady to hate and feel sorry for, Tsukuyomi’s Pain. The cosmic crafter and gatherer area has new updates, and crafters have pink heart themed items to make new. Hildebrand has more story, and the Air Force One GATE has a new place to fly around and pew pew.. The Strategy Board is live, and everyone is clearly using it for helpful raid explanations and mechanics demonstrations. Totally. Free login campaign has started. Up to 96 hours from when you start it. Ends February 9th. STO KDF fleet has made some big strides with the fleet holdings. The Starbase will complete the Tier IV shipyard in just about a week. Which means after that we can start tossing resources in for a tier IV Starbase. Also the Research lab is closing in on Tier III. What all this means is more fleet ships will be accessible. And once the research lab hits Tier III, the purchasable trait slots will be available. Fleet Action Report has been doing playthroughs of the missions showcasing accolades and recruit special tasks, while letting you know what rewards could be handy for your ships or on ground. We will be completing the final mission of the Iconian War arc this week. Which you can catch us live recording the episode Thursday 10pm eastern. Fun nights are Monday 10pm eastern. If you want to group up and run any STO content, looking for help with something, or just want to hang out, come join us. LOTRO Not much is happening. In general players are leveling, working on the epic quest, and enhancing their legendary items. If anyone is looking for help leveling or enhancing their legendary items please reach out to Maelllung and they'd be happy to help! And with that, let's get back to what we have been doing in and out of game! GAME NEWS HOST CHAT Question of the show- what was the geekiest gift you received for the holidays?

On this episode of The AIE Podcast… We have floor tanking and other WoW noobs… um, news Happy Lifeday, AIE December, where the attendance is optional and the fun is mandatory LOTRO brings YULE Kingdoms of Harad And, join us for our last show of the year All that and more coming up right now… Podcast Audio Raw Video http://youtu.be/TZ8A0NVJjUM Open Welcome to episode #440 of the podcast celebrating you, the Alea Iacta Est gaming community, the die has been podcast. This is Tetsemi: To my left is Mewkow: – (catch phrase here). And to my right is Mkallah: (hey guys, there is leftover caramel apple pie in the guild kitchen). This week, we have a wrap up of what is going on for December in AIE and gaming in general. Ok, we'll be digging into what we have been up to shortly, but first, let's cover this week's news… AIE News Community Mandatory Fun Nights Where the fun is mandatory but the attendance is not. Sunday – Destiny 2 8:30 pm Eastern Monday – GW2 9:30 pm Eastern Monday – STO 10:00 pm Eastern Tuesday – SWTOR 9:00 pm Eastern Wednesday – HFO Mythic+ Mayhem (WoW) 8:00 pm Eastern Friday – ESO 9:00 pm Eastern Saturday – LotRO 8:30 pm Eastern Saturday – FFXIV (Maps) 9:30 pm Eastern Saturday – Noob Raid (WoW) 11:00 pm Eastern Streaming and Guild Podcast News We have a ton of AIE member podcasts! Want to know where to find them? Look no further than here- New Overlords Podcast (Max and Sema) https://www.newoverlords.com Boards and Swords (Chris and Philip) https://boardsandswords.com/blog?category=Boards%20%26%20Swords Dr. Gameology ( Dr. Daniel Kaufmann ) https://drgameology.com/ STO – Fleet Action Report (Grebog and Nikodas) https://www.youtube.com/@fleetactionreport A Podcast Reborn: A FFXIV Community Podcast (Brandon aka Old Man Franks, Meagan, and Rho) – NSFL https://www.bonusroll.gg/directory/a-podcast-reborn/ WoW Noob Raid is on winter break until January 3, 2026 so Dankinia can get a bit of relief from the horrible jokes the group likes to torment her with. During 2025, Dankinia demonstrated her floor tanking abilities 172 times. While she is out, Celindre will be leading Noob Raid – After Dark during the normal 11pm EST time slot each Saturday. In WoW, Midnight – the next expansion – has a release date of March 2nd with the pre-patch release on Jan 13. Anyone with an Epic Edition pre-order will have early access – expected Feb 27 according to WoWHead. Players with early access will also be able to use the new Player Housing feature as of Dec 2. This will be a bit complicated for AIE and our co-guilds, which are one of several ways to join “neighborhoods” for player housing. Every player’s Warband gets two houses – one Horde and one Alliance, but any alt can access either home. There will be open neighborhoods that are server wide, and Guilds can create private neighborhoods open to anyone in that guild. Groups of friends (such as Raid Teams) can also create charters for their own neighborhoods. We will have neighb orhoods for all the co-guilds (probably) but haven’t assigned which officer will be assigned to which yet. Currently, in addition to the Legion Remix event (speed leveling/transmog/mounts etc), the WoW Anniversary is active in Retail WoW, with a rep & xp boost. Visiting the Anniversary Celebration at the Caverns of Time will provide an additional buff. Rep is good – because it’s one of the ways to obtain decor for Player Housing. SWTOR SWTOR will see a holiday release of update 7.8 entitled “Pursuit of Ruin”. It will include a new story chapter, a new type of Dynamic Encounter, and a new stronghold (player housing). That’s not to mention Life Day festivities, with the snow balls and the wookiee hugging. Also, for the first year ever, we will be trying out a new guild event during the evenings between Christmas and New Years. Stay tuned to discord for more info on that! ESO MFN in ESO generally takes the month of December off, but expect to find a couple of people hanging out at the normal time on Friday nights though the holidays. Attendance will be sporadic but feel free to reach out if anyone would like company while running the holiday events in game. FFXIV Patch 7.4 comes December 16th. Main Scenario – Into the Mist Raid Dungeon – The Arcadion: Heavyweight Division Variant Dungeon – The Merchant’s Tale New Dungeon – Mistwake New Trial – Hell on Rails New Unreal Trial – Tsukuyomi’s Pain (Unreal) New Frontline Campaign – Worqor Chirteh Weapon Enhancement Quests – Phantom Weapons Inconceivably Further Hildibrand Adventures Manderville Gold Saucer GATE – Air Force One (The Cieldalaes) Cosmic Exploration: Oizys and Tool Enhancement Quests – Cosmic Tools Strategy Board – Raid explanations but better Glamour Update – Unlocked all types! New Theme Settings – Clear Green and Clear White Mac support (Ventura ends Jan 27, Tahoe now supported) Save 50% on Collector's Edition Digital Upgrades Until December 7 New ridiculous hotpot mount (It flies) And irregular tomestones are active now until 7.4 is live. Fanfest is happening where Blizzcon is normally, April 24/25th. Cookbook #2 is out! LOTRO New expansion “Kingdoms of Harad” as of right now is scheduled to be released on December 3rd. The instance cluster for the expansion is expected to be delayed, which means this gives a chance to level up to the new level cap and get a group together and look at it as a kinship. Also looking forward to the Yule Festival that starts on December 11th. Join us as we look to have fun in Frostbluff as well as protecting it in “The Battle of Frostbluff”. STO Yes, it’s true, Cryptic studios has once again been sold. However, this is not a time for doom and gloom. The new owners have no intentions of sunsetting STO. In fact, STO has simply returned to its original owners who want to see the game succeed. There are ongoing sales in both the Zen Store and Mudd’s Market. Some of these are as high as 50% off! Lifetime Subscriptions are 33% off until Dec 14th Q’s Winter Wonderland will be returning on Dec 9th. While we don’t have any specific details on what the rewards will be this year, it’s sure to be something you don’t want to miss! And with that, let's get to what we have been doing in and out of the game! And, Mkallah has a question for everyone! GAME NEWS Okay, friends! What geeky thing are you planning to give for the holidays, and are there any geeky gifts you hope to receive? CLOSE And that's our show for tonight.

Act 2 launches this Tuesday with a new mode called Court of Blades. It takes inspiration from Destiny 1 Court of Oryx. It has an augment system similar to what WoW had in Torghast. 5 new weapons are tied to this activity. Guardian games also launches with Act 2. Guardian games has a boss rush mode as an activity. Bungie had a developer stream last week going over Act 2, and gave information on new things coming in Act 3 which launches only 3 weeks after Act 2. Act 3 has a mode coming that is basically what LFR is in Wow but for Destiny 2 dungeons called explorer mode. It seems pretty cool, basically a matchmade activity with a lot of markers and tips in game on how to complete the dungeon. No organized guild activities, there are a handful of us still playing and getting together to run Nightfalls and dungeons. WoW In WoW news, the Liberation of Undermine Raid arrived, with lots of crazy mechanics and a big Vegas vibe. First boss Vexie and the Geargrinders make quite an entrance! You have been warned.

Their progression Team, So Let's Go Skating - picks up right about now with The One-Armed Bandit. Noob Raid defeated two bosses - Vexie and the Cauldron of Carnage (aka Mecha Kong vs Fire Breathing T-Rex) and the weekly World Boss. Great job, Noob Raiders! There is one wing (three bosses) available in LFR for those with gear level 606. On Tuesday, the raid will be available on Story Mode for solo players. You don't get loot but can complete a quest for a nice crafting upgrade item. Delves in Season 2 award a new customizable mount: Delver's Gob-Trotter, and Bran can now tank,

We now have a fresh start company (Covenant) in New World on Hudsonland. We are enjoying all the improvements they've made lately. We are also on the legacy server Valhalla. WoW Noob Raid is 7/8 in normal Nerubn-ar Palace. Not bad at all for a bunch of Noobs lead by a professional floor tank. WoW Classic Fresh start servers are coming up in Classic SWTOR The guild is still doing MFN on Tuesday nights at 9pm EST. We are helping everyone get their Galactic Season objectives done. Still have a couple months to finish everything up. The Public Test Server (PTS) is up with content from the next patch 7.6 on it. One of the things being tested are dynamic events, which are like world quests in other games. A new single boss operation is being tested also. Lords of Light has taken it down, but there are some different mechanics that are not working correctly right now. Should be fun when it's in the live game. There are rewards for doing 100 dynamic events and a title for defeating the operation boss. Keep an eye out for groups getting together on the PTS if you want to finish those rewards up. We have four operations (raid) teams that are running different things. Check in the SWTOR channel in discord for when spots are open and subs are needed. There are a couple teams that have some regular spots open. Join up if you want to see some different content in Star Wars: The Old Republic. FFXIV New patch is out, more MSQ, more Alliance Raid, and you can combine level 1 outfits in the glamour dresser so they only take up one slot instead of many. Also, update your adventure plates! ESO We've been attempting some new-to-us trials, with varying degrees of success. Kraemer has all of the mundus stones and crafting stations currently available at his primary residence. Feel free to stop by to use them if you need to. GW2 Extra Life event running until the 19th. Take your toon into Lion's Arch.
