That’s the theme they are going for in this series. It’s part of the plot and the over arching narrative. Emperor=really bad. Vader=bad but sympathetically bad with a spirit of vengeance for the slights he has been given. It’s really good villain writing.

I think this was a huge part of how Palpatine controlled Vader. He always put Vader in horrible straights that fueled his anger but would eventually give him the chance for vengeance.

[@JounLord1]

I actually liked Tagge from the movie. He seemed like one of the more level headed Imperial Officers, not outright hostile towards Vader like Motti either. Had a realistic view on what the Rebellion was capable of and didn't blindly trust in the power of the Death Star. Also why would an Imperial Army general being commanding the Imperial Fleet?

[@ziergiest]

He was made Supreme Commander, which gave him authority over all military forces. Think General Douglas MacArthur during WW2. Even though MacArthur was an Army officer, he still had full authority over all other troops, regardless of service branch.

[@kevinhansen8211]

Despite being a man obsessed with graphs and analytics, Tagge was a fool. A truly smart commander would have spoken with Vader privately and come to terms with him. He no doubt had information on how many imperial officers that Vader had...retired during his career. If he and Vader had come to an understanding, made it look like Vader was being punished for the emperor. He might just have lived long enough to see some of his ideas come to fruition, as well as having Vader's backing, not as a friend, but at least as someone Vader had a mutual respect for.

[@bmaster5324]

Vader with a red cape goes hard.

[@CSLucasEpic]

What Cassio Tagge failed to see is that his power relied on paper, someone named him a commander, others acknowledge it. Darth Vader's power comes from The Force, he is powerful regardless of what others say. And a Paper Tiger like Cassio Tagge will always be shred to pieces by an actual Tiger.

[@HybridRenoII]

That's always been conflicting Canon though Vader really *DIDN'T LIKE THE DEATH STAR* so in essence 3:10 or so in when Tagge mentions "Tarkin's Folley" Vader really canonically speaking should've agreed there are multiple source materials with Vader disapproving of The Death Star

[@Lontracanadensis]

He flat-out said so right in front of Tarkin even, before choking Admiral Motti.

[@laneneely1077]

Maybe he just respected Tarkin.

[@peterwhite6415]

@@laneneely1077 From what ive read and seen, he really didnt like Tarkin but respected him for the most part. Tarkin's vision of a weapon that would make all systems cower when mentioned would be great for the Empire, but making it a Single Station was the biggest mistake. Many people shared this sentiment but kept quiet due to fear of "opossing" the Empire; even Thrawn saw it as a massive risk to focus so many resources, especially when the Fleet/Navy could be improved further to be far better trained and equipped.

[@HybridRenoII]

@Lontracanadensis tis what I referred to as saying *MULTIPLE* He does To Krenic in Rogue 1, He does in the books including Thrawn Alliances when he flat out basically tells Thrawn he agrees 100% against the Death Star & wants More Capital Ships & Annnd *TIE DEFENDERS* He tells Thrawn "I will personally tell The Emperor I agree with you not only on the amount of waste in the death star but I want your Capital ships & Tie design to be pushed through" mind you Rogue 1 is Disney Era so both Lucas & Disney & the in-between books, comics fan made, most lore more consistently says "Vader is NOT Keen On The DS Project"

I think Tagge was put there to kind "punish" Vader by the Emperor - let a lesser person essentially boss him around a bit. But in the end, when Tagge failed, the Emperor, knowing al about Vader's humiliation by the smug noble, and wanting to set an example, let Vader be the one to essentially punish Tagge. After all , Vader was Palp's enforcer. Keep the others in line with fear.
