  • My personal and not-actually-relevant head canon is that the B-wing was basically a dragster- very fast, but turned for shit, so it could get inside a capital ship’s defenses and drop payload in a minimum amount of time.

    (The other thing I do t get about it is why no hyperdrive ring allowing you to retain the composite beam pwnage from the Blade Wing. Maybe slap in some basic thrusters and a dumb droid pilot so it could be dropped and maneuvered while the b-wing did its smash-smash thing.)












  • Storm troopers aren’t clones at all. They’re recruited. (Rebels, you see some of that process, with Ezra and a few others. Basically, most are barely competent. The 501st is supposed to be an exception.)

    There’s also plenty of examples outside this moment of storm troopers sucking- battle at cloud city, Hoth. Virtually every major engagement… even when they were supposed to be on their a-game, they suck.
