Would lightsaber colors always be the same or would they be random or would they be according to what color you were. That would be pretty cool.

Well two blades certainly looks better ;) , The TF jedi are said to have double blades... and the TF has some of the weaker jedi in the game (only the wookiee's and gunguns are weaker)

The tidbit was found in several previews and was quickly diduced by me also. Several sceens show jedi. In all of those the Jedi's lightsaber is the same color as the civ.:D

TF doesn't have all the double bladed it looks like from this screen

it seems to me that the only jedi that have been shown look like dark jedi, one on the imps team and one with the tf.

We might have seen a Gungan or Wookie one, but no one really knows because it is hard to tell and alot of sceenshots were exclusives to ONE thing and do not show up any where else. So we can't really compile all these together in ONE big sceens section.

so we can assume that TF have double blades and maybe the Imps do to but Vader didn't so we can't be sure and all of the other civs jedi have single blades.

In general, any 'dark side civ' will have Sith with double blades... although i have also seen a sith from the Imps that looked like the Emperor. without a saber...

Maybe it was the Emp.!
I'm glad they are using multiple colors, even if it's dependent on the civi's color. :)

Wait, wait, wait. What about if jedi start out with one blade and after you upgrade them or after they get so many kills they get two blades? :D

hmmm...where DO you get those ideas...
i like 'em. :D
it's not very likely and would require quite a few more graphics per unit.. i imagine the last reason is the one why that's probably not done.

Well... I forget where I read it, but jedi do upgrade.... padawan, jedi knight, jedi master :cool:

I think that it's just that the Sith have two blades, the jedi one, but that doesn't neccessaril;y mean more attacking power or any advantage at all. All the jedi will probably be very similar as far as attack and defense, with some civs getting just a tiny bit better jedi. Just a guess....:D

oooh! aaah!
I'm starting to like the Jedi more and more...
that's the first shot i see of a Jedi Temple..
very nice..

do you guys think units would have choking-animations if a Jedi could have a Force-choke upgrade and would use it on them ?

It's about as likely as jedi battle animations.

So, in other words....no :D

Also, i don't tihknk that the jedi have force choke, even the siths.
