So, whats so evil about the Galactic Empire?

Btw, I don't see why Palp's army during the classic trilogy still should be a clone army.
Clones are very expensive to produce, and it takes long until they're ready.
I guess Palpatine ordered the Clone Army because starting a massive recruiting program to prepare for his little wargame with the separatists would be a little bit... obvious.
Later, after the foundation of the Empire, simply drawing recruits from the member planets is more economic, since they only cost training, equipmen, and salary in contrary to clones which have to be raised, educated etc.

Need I remind you
Clones Go Nuts
Try and Kill Everyone
Lots of people Die(The CLONE Wars, Epsode 2 was not the start of it realy, sure first time clones fought but not aginsts everyone)
Planets are Destroyed(Realy BDZ not blow away)
From this chaos two things happens
Empire Rises
Cloning OUTLAWED

Hmm, not necessarily. Clones which are raised in less than a year, perhaps.
But not the Kaminoan clones. They're different.

Those clones also had the training and exact memories of the original pumped into their heads. While the Kamino clones had the same bodies, thy were different people with different memories. Imagine waking up thinking you are the original, and then finding out you are just a clone.

I'd go nuts
Just like they did

Acutal the backstory states that some clone was clone baddly and he wanted to rule the galaxy so he stole Cloning Tech and they became the Clone-Masters and he went off and they figured out how to Clone realy fast(And the clones would be realy angrey and violent, all good) and from that built an army tried to take over but clones went crazy and just tried killing everything
So the Jedi's hunted the clonemasters down and put a stop to it but along the way alot of people die and several worlds we lost(They had BDZ type operations run on them)

Cue Imperal March Empire rises in the Chaos
This is the backstory Lucus wrote, Wiether he will stick to it is another thing

Sounds cool, but where did you get that from?

Lucus talk about on Entertament Tonight back when Esp 1 was Relased

Couple things. First, Temuera Morrison (who played Jango Fett) is a Maori, not a European. Therefore, if Stormies are clones, they aren't "white" clones.

Second, Leia lied about Alderaan being "peaceful". They were, in fact, the chief weapon suppliers of the Rebellion. From the ANH novel:

"The defense systems on Alderaan, despite the Senator's protestations to the contrary, were as strong as any in the Empire"

"Now that their main source of munitions, Alderaan, has been eliminated, the rest of those systems with sucessionist inclinations will fall in line quickly enough, you'll see"

Alderaan was a military target.

the same thing happened on Mon Calamari in Rogue Leader.

Mission Description: "The World Devastator is attacking the peacful world of Mon Calamari..."

Mon Calamari was manufacturing CAPITAL WARSHIPS for the Rebellion. Makes me wonder what the Rebels definition of 'peaceful' is.

Acutal to be truthful they built Pleasure Linerers then converted them into Ships of War
But this was not till ROTJ

Cpt_Frank · Post by **Cpt_Frank** » 2002-07-14 04:11pm

But they were already building warships when the World Devas attacked.

They also kept several capital warships hid after the clone wars while everyone else dismantled their navies.
