It might be as simple as they refused to join a xenocidal dictatorship bent on galactic domination. Back then, perhaps traitors could be just disappeared... but centuries later Horus is just too high profile (to say nothing of the real imminent threat of him) to make go away with an information pur...

I think he was talking to me, even though he quoted you. I tried emphasizing SEE to avoid any misunderstandings. My point was you don't see any long range combat in trek, you hear, and that is explained by lack of budget as much as anything as has already been pointed out. As soon as there was money...

ghetto edit:

As for the vong they are such religious fanatic anti technological douches, I think I would actually cheer for the Feddies, even if they didn't have a chance.

From the ROTS cross-sections The DBY-827's precise, long-range tracking mode enables it to hit a target vessel at distances of over ten light-minutes That is a heavy turbolaser on the venator-class. That is 179,875,474.8 km. A little more than your 90 000 km phaser. Where does this 'lolz star wars h...

This is not film evidence but page 2 in the Dark Empire comic while in hyperspace: Leia: Han the navicomputer just reported extreme turbulence at our reentry coordinates Han: That'll be the battle debris leia! the whole Imperial sector is littered with it! Evidence of not only ftl sensors but faster...

Punching out, you're just floating around and hoping someone will rescue you. Two, the helmets are open so you'd die in seconds anyway. The TIE pilots seemed a bit better-prepared in that regard. I've heard them talk about some sort of seal that comes out from the neck area and latches to the visor...

I am trying to address some of the points not really focused on in the original post. Stormtroopers being crap is just wrong, when ever the plot allows the stormies do a good job. The attack on the sand crawler, the boarding of the Tanitive, Hoth. The Stormtroopers all dominate in those occasions. I...

I was actually talking about socialism at that point but I can see how it was inferred.

The thing is, its money that balances these jobs in a capitalist world and as you said, there is no money.

Star Wars is much more to my liking than that socialist repressive conformist pc nightmare that is Star Trek where every energy effect/dust cloud/nebula/space fart disrupts the engines/shields/weapons/transporters. With atrocious engineering and safety standards the federation isn't really any safer...

(Note: I think this is a shit attitude, kids get under-estimated for no good reason and do deserve more challenging media.) I thought this point worth belabouring. This can be seen in the way Japan as oppossed to the western world treat cartoons. In Japan cartoons can be for mature audiences with e...

I would like to see a close and detailed look at a regular Joe Blow Imperial, like a stormtrooper or an Imperial pilot. Not some evil monster just a regular guy or girl serving their Empire.
