    The rebels should have had people hidden out on the perimeter who could have disabled Imperial walkers in a similar method to Luke's efforts. The sad thing is that Luke did more damage to the Imperials after he was shot down than when he actually had a fighter craft.
    I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

        You guys got all that info out of the books right? I've been getting some weird images of people estimating the length of the ships by pausing the video and placing a measuring rod against the screen.

            It really annoys me that people are trying to trivalise one of the most important events in Galactic history by comparing it to a skirmish in a minor war on a planet that has no influence at all.
            Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

                    Bull**** always goes past the filter. I don't know why.

                      I hope they wiped the screen off afterwards.

                            Its a perfectly reasoned debate on the merits of the alliance fleet and their overall militray capability.

                            Just ignore the references to Earth based forces

                              Clearly the alliance military forces were inferior in every way except for their fighters.

                                Well we wouldn't want to talk about something esoteric, would we?
