btw Himmler, who writes the best star wars books? the only one ive read is Shadows of the Empire because its considered to be 'part' of the actual storyline. anything you recommend that is considered to be part of the whole saga?

The Emeror could have owned Mace at any time, that was all a part of his plan to turn Anakin.

It's true. Palpatine needed Anakin to make the choice to set his dark path in stone. Just like he needed Luke to kill Vader.

Probably could have gone either way.

I think Palpatine was just faking the weakness. But even if he did have more power it won't do much if he has a saber blade in his brain.

I think Mace Windu coulda taken him, but the Emperor was totally faking. Look at how fast he killed off those 3 'Masters' that came with Windu. 2 saber thrust and down went the first 2, then a little block from the 3rd and he died.

Mace Windu's saber style is more about parrying and defending. He can take the momentum you swing at him with and redirect it back at you,hence the reversle of lightning. Most sabers just absorb the lightning and not fire it back.
