Different Concentration

Lately, I have been in a rut I guess. It seems that I have been spending too much time on my phone and my head down and staring into a screen in which I am not learning anything. Thus mindless scrolling. This is not what I want to be spending what little free time that I have doing.

I have set some goals for myself in this quest(to look up more).

The to try to start writing more.Maybe 1 story a week. I feel that what I meant to so is to write. What to write we shall see. I am not that sure if I am going to post everything on here yet.

Along with reading at least 1 book a month. I don't think that is too much of a reach. It is realistic especially with the craziness that is the life that my family and I live.

I guess we will see if I can live up to this little quest that I have challenged to myself.

I is For...

In the continuation of the A to Z Challenge in my post today. We are to the letter I and that stands for Imperial I-class Star Destroyer.

The Imperial-class Star Destroyers, along with Imperial stormtroopers, represented the might of the Imperial Military throughout the galaxy during the reign of the Galactic Empire. The Imperator-class was originally used by the Republic Navy toward the end of the Clone Wars, and served alongside the Tector-class in a few task forces during the conflict. It was at the time one of the largest warship classes in the Republic Navy.[19] It later became a mainstay of the Imperial Navy and was also fielded to a lesser degree by the Empire's successor-states.

It was crazy the amount that these ships cost to make. The cost was equivalent of several star systems' annual economic output. WOW!!  Star Destroyers had at least 37,000 officers and crew. Counting the stormtrooper complement (one division or legion, 9,700 men) would total 46,700.

This warshield can equip with the whole 9 yards as well. It had security shields, six heavy turbolasers and two heavy ion cannons, arranged in four dual mounts flanking the ship's tower structure, also other weapons in its arsenal.

What would be your plan in trying to take down this warship?

D is For...

In the continuation of the A to Z Challenge in my post today. D is for Darth Maul. There was so many different ways that I could have went with this letter so I decided ti go with Darth Maul, due to the fact that I used Darth Vader with letter A already.
Ray Park as Darth Maul

Darth Maul was an effective and trained Jedi killer thanks to the Emperor. He was not completely heartless, granting those he felt worthy of his respect quick and painless deaths.Maul thought a one-man army for the Sith (Empire)Order. He wanted to defeat the Jedi Order in their temple. Maul was heavily prone to acts of gloating, despite his master's disapproval. His overconfidence was such that he revealed his true identity.

The thing that everyone remembers about Darth Maul is that he was the poster child for the Phantom Menace movie.  He is also the sith that had the sweet double-bladed lightsaber. What else could be more useful while fighting multiple Jedi.

I bet the way that Maul was defeated by Padawan  Obi-Wan Kenobi. Maul severely underestimated Kenobi's skill after killing his Jedi master. Kenobi severed Maul at the waist.

What would cause you more fear the appearance of Maul or his skill?
