Star Wars: Episode 9 plot speculation


Assuming the title of the ninth starwars is something along the lines of this, it is one that recalls this ad from dragon magazine:

The Campaign Pack covers infiltration deep inside the Imperial lines. This seems like something a certain Ex-Stormtrooper named Finn will undertake- perhaps to steal an Imperial star destroyer and some badly needed ship assets. Resulting hopefully in a final confrontation with Captain Phasma and the New Republic taking control of the remaining assets of the Empire/first order.

The Associated Adventure module 'Tattoine Manhunt' involves a clash between rebels and bounty hunters as they search for a hero (this makes sense for Kylo Renn to employ their services in hunting down Rei because she would detect his presence in a heartbeat). Why would Rei be on Tattoine? She needs a lightsaber and investigating Luke's origins will thanks to information from Chewbacca will lead her to Obi Wan Kenobi.  In his house beyond the dune sea, its likely she will find secrets of the Old Republic Jedi including how to make a lightsaber.

The adventure involves the obligatory visit to the Cantina at Mos Eisley Spaceport.

Other Tourist hotspots include:
Beggars Canyon
The Sarlac Pit
Jabba's Palace
Luke's Family Farm
Obi Wan Kenobi's house
The Dune Sea
Toshi Station
An old Sand Crawler
Sand People Encampment

The Millenium Falcon will be Destroyed as Bounty hunters blow up Mos Eisley Spaceport to kill or strand Rei on Tattoine. Chewbacca will likely die on Tattoine as a consequence.
Why would Bounty Hunters blow up all of Mos Eisley Spaceport? The starwars saga has been escalating in meaningless mass-slaughter of civilians as an end-goal for the Empire and the First Order. Rei is also a very powerful Jedi. No Bounty Hunter could hope to 'take her alive'. 'Nuke the site from Orbit. Its the only way to be sure.' Seems a modern Mantra in this violent age and is likely a fallback position for Ruthless Bounty Hunters.
Rei likely makes contact with the force ghost of Obi Wan, and perhaps learns more of the Old Republic Jedi. General Greivous's single pilot fighter craft which Obi-Wan Kenobi aquired at the end of Revenge of the Sith might be sitting buried in the desert providing a way off world for Rei. There might be a spare lightsaber floating around from General Greivous's collection.

While this covers Rei being chased down by bountyhunters (Starwars always needs more bountyhunters), The Rebellion needs more ships and more fuel. So they raid the Imperial fleet. The Black Ice is the Imperial fuelcell transport vessel moving enough for the entire Imperial Fleet.








Finish up with Rebel Star destroyers and First Order star destroyers converging in a massive space battle above Tattoine and the destroyed Mos Eisley Spaceport should end the film franchise. Slaves in Beggars Canyon inheriting their freedom in the aftermath.
