I have a question

When the ISDs were in the asteroid field in ESB, the novellizations have the asteroids colliding with the Star Destroyers hull, not it's particle shields. So on Mr. Wongs site shouldn't the "3E20 joules of kinetic energy" be a measurement of the ability of an ISD's armor instead of it's particle shields, which are most likely much higher.

Well, it's also colliding with very large windows, and the amount of destruction this caused is in question.

HINT: The captain on Vader's hologram thing is shocked and surprised, not dead and imploded.

Really? I always thought that the captain that flails and fades out was killed.

Also it can be either or on that
Hull Tight or sphere simply because some things makes sense at some points
IE if your being attacked by Kinitec weaponry and missles Hull tight might not be such a good idea compared to sphereical
