... do you think the Rebel Alliance would have stood a chance?

Take Han Solo, for example. Since when do -10.0 lowsec pirates give a damn about sov warfare? |

I personally never saw the empire as the bad guys. prior to the empire the galaxy was waging wars on multiple fronts, planets were starving, ect ect. the empire unifies them all, and despite their hunting of jedi they really never did anything that warranted a rebellion against them. The death star was a moon sized starbase, think of all the imperial soldiers stationed on it with their families, and the amount of jobs its construction must have brought to the economy. tl;dr Rebels are scumbags

Death Star would have been just one of hundreds which The Empire didn-¦t want anyway and already has replaced besides.
Instead the Rebels would have defeated The Empire by just having a spy join it who would have stolen all their stuff right before pressing a single button and disolving it. Forum-unbanned since 2011.10.20.

Unless of course, the Death Star's control interface also had EVE's UI, and an inadvertent mis-click by the Death Star crew began overheating the exhaust port and no one noticed until it failed which then caused the reactor core to quickly overheat and explode.

Anakin did bring balance to the force, there were way to manny self righteous light side dudes, this increased chaos; the bane of human development.
If SW followed eve rules han solo would be a flying a speedy t1 hauler nano / inertia in ghe lows with warpspeed rigs.
the deathstar would be a N3/PL or CFC Titan pilot failing at selfdestruct chicken while beeing bait waiting for a subcap fleet to clear a HERO atron fleet

Well, the tracking on elite storm troopers is notoriously bad, I mean it's like wathcing a Brave Newbie Rifter trying to hit a Titan :) .
But Star Wars is a movie. In order to get to it's conclusion (ie a smal ragtag group of scruffy white kids suported by pissed off spear chucking teddy bears and a couple androids ,one of whom must be an illegal, R2-D2 speaky no english) the movie makers had to use every stupid miracle trope in history, Like:
Spaceships advanced enough to conquer galaxies but not advanced enough to destroy a tramp freighter (Milinium Falcon) as it 'evades' by flying slightly to the right of said advanced spaceships.
The aforementioned Elite Soldiers with ENERGY WEAPONS that can't kill dudes standing out in the open 10 meters away
Magical Powers (enough said lol)
And on and on. Star Wars is a lesson for MMO game makers: the ONLY way to make the underdog win is to make the game so ridiculas and arbitray that Jar Jar Binks shows up and seems to fit in. |

Hear hear
The Rebel propagandists cite the bombardment of Alderaan but I put it to the Haig that they were part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor, take her away!
Further, they were harbouring a WMD (at least one Jedi)
The Empire saved the galaxy from a unilateral order of religious space wizards and installed order to the quadrant.

Jar Jar Binks never fit in. Never. And you should feel bad for saying that. GÇ£SandboxGÇ¥ does not mean that you will succeed at anything you attempt; it means you can attempt anything you want to succeed at. One of the largest obstacles in the way of your success is other players. |

Admiral Ackbar: Worst FC ever.
I'm STILL wondering how the Empire managed to arm all those Minmatar Shuttles and call them TIE Fighters...
A good portion of one film takes place ENTIRELY in an asteroid belt and not ONE miner around? Or maybe it had something to do with the humongous worm living in one of the asteroids.
On that note, why did the Empire use Bombers to flush out the Falcon when they should have used an army of Mining Barges? Popped roids disappear until DT, you know. |
