Interesting turn of events, and quite frankly, I'm glad to see Filoni involved.
Perhaps an older Ahsoka Tano will appear in this series.
I personally hope they try to take a more series tone with the series, but some how the doubt of that eats away more than the Jar Jar Binks episodes of Clone Wars ever could. The Disney ownership is giving us new movies, the partnership with EA will give us new games; the next couple of years will determine whether or not we actually wanted any of it.
Whoa.

So glad TCW ended... these half-done images and concept sketches make it seem like they were going to go into the ground... and then try to see if they can make contact with the Molemen.

If she makes some kind of deal with them or offers to serve the Empire she could appear to be an asset to them and that would prevent them from wanting to kill her which in turn saves her butt against them...at least until she decides to betray them for her own reasons.
She's a too much of a threat to them - a rogue element, one of the only living force users that isn't already wholly aligned to the Emperor. Remember Palpatine's story about Darth Plagueis, killed by his own apprentice, Palpatine himself? The Sith have a long history of that, one that the Emperor is only too familiar with, so he would surround himself with only the most loyal people who would serve him with the utmost faith (and even that turned out to be lethal at the end). No way he'd allow Ventress, who has changed sides way too many times to be relied upon, in his inner circle.
And there's no way he'd let her run around at any other level of his employ either. Like I said before, she's a rogue element that could cause him a lot of bother if she pushed the right buttons. Palpatine would probably have her killed or imprisoned if she came to him.
Also, Palpatine doesn't need assets at this stage. The forces of the Rebel Alliance were always dwarfed by the limitless might of the Empire even at their height. Right now, the Rebel Alliance has barely been formed (probably not even yet, not as we know it) and Palpatine holds all the cards, so why would he risk it for an asset he doesn't even need?
Another thing: as I've previously stated, Ventress has no reason to expose herself to the only people who truly know who she is and what she's worth and risk her life in doing so. That's basically the reason she became a bounty hunter in the first place - to make a living with her skills under the radar of powerful factions like the Jedi or the Sith.
Have you noticed something? You're so desperate for this to make sense that you've changed your story and switched things round several times, trying to fit the story to the theory. Admit it, the theory is dumb - I've admitted that it could happen if the show runners want to do that, but I still stand by the fact that I've proven repeatedly that it's dumb.
It's a long road that has no turning - It's never too late to mend. The darkest hour is before the dawn, and even this war must end.

And Shifter has proven repeatedly that he doesn't accept any proof that doesn't fit his predefined concept. Trust me, I've been in way too many circular arguments with him.

You guys don't think that I know it's dumb...I agree with you it totally is dumb, but consider what has happened already and you'll realize that dumb rules the Star Wars Universe.
I mean they did resurrect Darth Maul after all, right?
Since dumb rules the Star Wars Universe and you all think I'm dumb then at least here I can actually be right for a change (at least according to you guys).

...I just realized that the lyric, "Let the blood of the impure water our furrows" would actually be rather fitting for an Imperial anthem.
Then I realized that might cause Dave Felony to try putting words to the Imperial March.

The Marseillaise would actually be pretty appropriate for the Empire. "Marchons, les citoyens! Formez nos battaillons!" Definitely works.

I did try to make Panzerlied work for the Imperial Army armored corps (it's the first song in that tank video, actually).
I think it went something like:
Through wind, snow, and rain Through the swamps and the mud We'll keep pressing on To shed our foe's blood There is nowhere to hide And they'll scatter before us Yes, before us! Onward march the walkers Grinding scum into dust!
With thundering motor Wheels and tracks make haste Imperial fury They'll bitterly taste At the head of the vanguard We will charge on ahead Yes, on ahead! Forward roll the tanks; The enemy will be dead!

Oh, on the whole, yes. I'm talking about pulling select lyrics and fitting them into the Imperial March.
...God, Imperial soldiers singing La Marseillaise in full? That's... horrifying. And so very un-Empire; you can't have a bunch of dudes in Feldgrau singing the anthem of the French Republic. Just the creepy parts.

"Contre nous de la tyrannie, L'étendard sanglant est levé, L'étendard sanglant est levé"
Since, well... the Imperial flag is the bloody banner of tyranny. Actually... the rest of it is pretty vicious, though. So, basically... skip over the parts about tyranny and despots. And perhaps not so much, "To arms civilians..." perhaps, "Enlist, civilians!"

Yeah, but "to arms" still implies some kind of democratization of defense. The Empire wouldn't do that; you enlist and become a part of the machine.
Also... I could see the Empire doing "civilians." If you want to be a citizen... "service guarantees citizenship."
