I'm not so sure, didn't the RotS novel say that Dooku really wanted to stab his Confederacy allies in the back and create a human-supremacist Sith dictatorship?

Don't think so.

Actually he did, I just checked the audio version.

Wookieepedia also says:
Quote
As Tyranus, Dooku became a Humanocentrist.[31] While he remained a connoisseur of alien art and antiquities,[111] he secretly despised most if not all of the corrupt aliens on the Separatist Council, though he reserved a measure of respect for the Geonosian Poggle. He divided the entire galaxy into two categories: threats and assets. The threat category was for beings or institutions that interfered with his personal advancement and would have to be eliminated, the asset category being for those who could aid, or at least not hinder his advancement.[31]

By the time of the Clone Wars, Dooku believed that the sorrow and injustice of the galaxy could only be responded to with anger and hate.[15] He came to believe that the Jedi Order should embrace the dark side and rule the galaxy alone without the interference of the Senate. As Tyranus, he planned to transform the Jedi into a Sith Army, and intended to forcibly recruit Force-users into its ranks.[31] While often assuming a genteel and civilized manner, Dooku had no qualms about torturing[63] or ordering the deaths of hundreds of his former comrades,[6] nor about committing any number of atrocities as leader of the Separatists.

Yes he'd gone too far into the dark and like Saruman was utterly consumed by pride and wrath in the end

I stand corrected.

Such is the ultimate price of the dark side. Dark may not be evil at first, but just you wait.

The only ones who can control the dark are those who have been redeemed from the dark (and thus know the corrupting influence of dark and can successfully fight against it) such as Revan.

I'm not sure whether this topic turned into a debate about dooku or something like that, or if the reason why it doesn't work has been answered, but my honest opinion of why Lucky Shot doesn't work in FoC is because in EaW, there is a glitch where Lucky Shot causes A LOT more damage than it was designed to do. For example, on an Empire space station lvl 2 in skirmish, if you perform the glitch right, Lucky Shot will take about 2/3 of the stations life away, and each hardpoint would have around 33% of their life remaining. So disabling Lucky Shot was probably intended by Petroglyph :(. It probably IS possible to enable it again if you mess with some code, and hopefully it will be changed, because I'll be glitching 24/7 in gc if it is ;)!

Thank you for the clear and concise answer. Now this thread can die in peace.
