 How will Kaidan be brought back in do you think?  Will he be at the trial?  (Whether he was an LI for you or not).

He was a love interest in the first game, and stands to reason he will still remain one in the third.

I was thinking maybe he might be heading up the investigation into the Batarian killings... Pure speculation of course but might be quite interesting!

Judging from the Earth demo, the VS is on the Normandy when it comes to pick up Shepard after the invasion.

We'll just have to wait and see whether they were always there, or whether they appear at the trial and then escape to the ship. I'd imagine Bioware would want to introduce them (and Vega) pretty early, so new players will know who they're dealing with.

For all we know, they were overseeing the Alliance's renovations to the Normandy. Who knows?

During the opening sequence of the game, Kaidan assists in evacuating Shepard from Earth on-board the Normandy SR-2.

Same goes for Ashley. Direct from the wiki with sources.

The "trial" lasts for several weeks in the game. I imagine it may have some vague similarities to the origins stories from Dragon Age, so the chances are in some time during the walking/talking sections of the trial we will bump into Ash/Kaidan, perhaps the same will go for Liara.

One thing I do hope, is that they are introduced differently, even in different places, perhaps. Even though neither of them are my favourite characters, I was extremely disappointed in how they were clones for one another in Mass Effect 2.

Totally agree - they're such different personalities, why should they be mirror images of each other after you choose one over the other?

Surely Ashley should be easier to win over re the Batarian destruction/working for Cerberus given she has a distrust for aliens! Kaidan might be harder work...

She might not trust aliens but saying she won't have any problem with shepard committing genocide against them is just plain stupid.

Point taken, haha!

My biggest problem for me and it isn't that Kaiden or Ashely will be there but the problem for me is this "Will they try to order shepard around?"

Winning them over shouldn't be a problem, not after watching the Reapers land, blowing everything to bits and killing millions, instantly showing Shepard was right all along. And blowing up a relay and killing 300.000 Batarians will pale in comparison to what the Reapers are doing so it might not even be mentioned any more after the trial. Perhaps Ashley/Kaidan will ask about what happened there and why but I doubt they'll condemn Shepard for it. There really wasn't any other way. If they still don't believe Shepard, I wouldn't want them on my ship anyway...

Since we saw Ashley in the demo I assume she'll be replaced by Kaidan in that scene. So if the VS is not part of the trial, Kaidan / Ashley will welcome you on board of the Normandy when picking you up.

If so, I can live with that. But it looks as if Shepard is still in charge in ME3, so I don't fear that. Ashley is still below in the command chain (Alliance) and less experienced Spectre. Kaidan may be higher in rank now (? to be verified ?)  but also still less experienced as Spectre. So Shepard will be the one in charge.

As soon as Shepard escapes the trial and is on board, Kaidan can be found lying on Shepard's bed (as one of the first game achievments)  :wizard:

What if the VS is the CO of the Normandy before Shepard's trial?
Then when s/he knows about the reaper invasion he takes the Normandy to rescue Anderson and Shepard. When they pick up Shepard, the VS gives the command of the Normandy to Shepard (the VS will remain as XO).

He'll probably be spending all his time in an urn on Shepard's bedside table. I expect whatever few pieces left on virmire probably won't make an effective squad-mate, unless you have a very fine needle and plenty of superglue.

I'm sure you meant Ash.

Not if he's in S/S!Kaidan or has a f!Shepard.
Hmm ... S/S!Kaidan ... Image IPB

I stay with Ash.

Huh? Kaidan is the one for s/s with male Shep and he's an obvious choice for femShep.  Besides, I don't recall any urns on the Normandy crash site...

Here is just my guess. Anderson of course is having Vega watch over you before trial. During trial VS could be anywhere nearby. I would think Anderson would want the VS around. I'm sure EDI or Joker will see the pretty ships coming down and radio the VS. The VS probably will get on board and take orders from Anderson to escort Shepard off Earth. That is just my guess.:lol:

Kaidan actually outranks Shepard.  Shepard is a Lt. Commander while Kaidan has been promoted to Staff Commander.

Unless they promote Shepard to Staff Commander, which for some reason I doubt.

This being the case, I'd still find it hilarious if Kaidan tried to pull rank on me. Bro, call me when you destroyed an entire race of evil bipedal psychic cyborg insects at their secret base surrounded by black holes and we'll talk.

I agree there completely.  I do think Kaidan will listen to Shepard.  If not, there is always an airlock some where on the Normandy.  :ph34r:
