Andrea Ciccaglione Actually the stormtrooper corp was made as the main strike force in the imperial military. The ones who police planets are actually the main army of the imperial army, which is the imperial army trooper. Their blasters and equipment were high tech. The rebels barely got any good gear. It's just that their blasters are made to penetrate armor which is perfect to use against stormtroopers.

I feel like Disney should make a movie from the Empire's perspective. One that portrays why it's needed around the war torn galaxy. Perhaps it could explain it from possibly a storm trooper who had friends or family on the Death Star. Getting to know both sides of the story gives depth to the both sides. The Empire is treated like a joke to movie/show fans while people who know the truth are ignored by these producers. The rebels get way too much attention, so I think a change of perspective is very much needed. I'm tired of always seeing storm troopers being treated like nothing in the public because that's how they're represented in the shows and movies mostly!

They never would. They don't want to innovate or break any formula. They did it for 2 seconds in Force Awakens with the opening scene win the dying stormtrooper & the blood on Fin's helmet, but then that was it and they went back to being robotic, moronic bad guys. EA did it for like one mission in the campaign for Battlefront 2, but then went back to "rebels good, empire bad" thing. No one wants to break the formula in a major production, & it's sad.

I'd imagine it's mostly the same as why actual soldiers join up. You get some adventure, benefits, pay, training in a particular field and job stability. The average trooper probably didn't think that much about why he or she was deployed onto whatever world or may even of been disillusioned and only fighting for their friends in the service. I don't really think people's motivations change that much overall if the characters are written like actual people.

Being a stormtrooper doesn't sound like a bad job as long as you're deployed on a planet that's far from any real conflict going on. Patrol cities/settlements, uphold order (I guess) and guarding resources, clearing up disaster events is a respectable job that must pay well. Pretty similar to being in the national guard in some ways, that's what my brother tells me since his in it. If I had the choice to choose what weapons I'd have in my kit it would be the MKII E-11 carbine with the targeting sensor and scope power pack, as well as a SE-14r pistol as a backup. Both guns can fire in semi and full auto, so I can cover my bases should I get into an encounter. Oh, and 3-4 thermal detonators because blowing shit up is always fun (as long as you're not caught in the blast :p).

Well, can’t say I don’t see some of their points. It was dumb to have the Jedi do all the peacekeeping work since they were never really part of any government in the first place. Serving as mediator is one thing but they should let’s two political powers solve their own problems. The whole ‘ends justify the means’ mentality does not work here. You can sacrifice innocent so blatantly and hope peace will come out of it. That’s just adding fuel to the fire. But now I can’t blame others who join the military because they want to make a living.

If you portray any part of the Empire as good, than you sort of condone the fascist caricature that it's supposed to represent which is obviously a no-no if you want to keep the somewhat Family Friendly aspect of the franchise.

So lightsabers have adjustable blade lengths, right? Could you in theory just extend it all the way out and rip a shit apart from the inside? I'd have liked to see Luke do *that* to the Death Star.

So Stormtroopers, with the Empire, brought peace and order to the lawless Galaxy for 20 years. Then the rebels destroy the Empire, and the galaxy goes back to their old ways. By Episode 7, it's clear the new Repbulic hasn't unified the galaxy and things are in disarray once again. Yet, I'm supposed to cheer for the rebels?

I don't believe this is canon. Disney would never allow anything involving the Empire to be a moral grey area... I mean, from Disney's perspective they are just space Nazis, with no good on its side at all. Because, you know, the rebels have to be good guys. Wouldn't want people thinking to hard, would they? Seriously though, I love learning about the empire and to see the side that the movies don't show use especially now Disney took over and the empire and everything related is just flat out evil.

I like the research done into these topics. It really gives insight into both sides, how hardly anything in Star Wars is Black & White, bu more grayish. The Empire was clearly in the wrong being repressive, tried putting humans above aliens, and could be straight up brutal to it’s own people like with Operation Cinder from Battlefront 2, yet it managed to assemble one of the largest armies in the Galaxy and brought order to previously lawless regions. P.S. it would be wise to remember Palpatine’s role in the Clone Wars, he controlled both sides and prolonged the war so the Republic could gain much of the galaxy’s assets for when he attacked the Jedi.
