Hi, I think Planetary Conquest is great event, but it is extremely difficult for smaller guilds to won a planet. In my opinion the best solution is to not compete guild vs guild but Republic vs Empire. On each planet score would be summarize for all Republic guilds and all Empire guilds which conquering that planet. Thanks to that we finally will feel that great war between both factions One top guild from side which wins planet will get special achievement "Conquest Leader" or something like that, it will help attack several planets - if you want to conquer planet you will attack the same planet as biggest guild from your faction, but if you want to be "Conquest Leader" you will have to choose other planet, on which your guild can be the leading forces. If you afraid that Empire have more players than Republic, each planet could have limit of guilds which are invading planet. What do you think about this?

And how many Sith have you killed during your fighting for the Empire? I believe a lot;p And now you are suprised that we're losing war...

Well I don't know if this is possible to smugglers but I have marry both Jaessa and Vette on my Sith Warrior. You just need first to marry Jaessa and then romance with Vette, when you'll have to chose between them you choose Vette and you have them both

First of all wasn't the Mortis just some kind of Force Vision or a dream? Something like Vader in cave on Dagobah in The Empire Strikes Back. For second it was said that only The Chosen One can beat the Force Wielders, so even if Palpatine was more powerfull than Anakin, he wouldn't be able to kill them. This is the same as in legend about King Arthur pulling a sword from a stone, despite many stronger knights trying to pull Exalibur only the "true king" (The Chosen One) could menage it.

1. I think that majority clones believed that Jedi were traitors who tried to kill Chancellor. Especially 501st - in The Clone Wars they see Krell's treason on Umbara. Despite this, I think that 501st wouldn't care about Skywalker's new name - according to them he was the only Jedi still loyal to the Republic. And there is also a matter of how Jedi treated clones during war: every Jedi (excluding Anakin Skywalker) treat them as things, they don't care if clones died, for example when in ROTS Anakin want to fly to help Oddball Kenobi says "no, they do their job so we can do ours". Skywalker always helps his clones, even if this was to put in risk his mission so Anakin was propably the only one who wouldn't be shot by his own troopers. 2. In The Clone Wars Rex is commander of 501st, when they pacify the Jedi Temple the commander's name is Appo. So Rex was killed, degraded, missing in action or he is deserter.

I agree with you that they have to be stopped, but I think better solution was to send multiple special forces teams like SEALS to hunt down and kill or bring to justice people like Bin Laden etc. instead of sending there a whole army. Because many soldiers died in that war and the effects aren't that good as they should be. Helping citziens is one thing but many people may now think that armies of US and allies are occupants and may have reason to join terrorists.

About Twi'lek female slave it was a joke. For me Twi'leks were always the most humanoid species and they deserve to be free. Maybe Empire wanted to do such thing but they were too occupied by terrorist attacks to resolve this problem? About Mandela, for me he was a terrorist, I think he shouldn't fight in a way he does. Many countries change their political system from totalitarianism to democracy in more peacefull way. For example Poland in 1989 thanks to the Lech Walesa (he was awarded Nobel Prize in 1983). About nuke Afghanistan - sending there troops was pointless. A lot of good soldiers died and still the mission is not succes, you can't win a war when you don't know who your enemy is (there can be even a child). The only way you can "win" is to completly destroy home of those terrorists and to sacrifice all innocents people living there, but this won't be real victory because you will be more evil than them. So that war shouldn't be started at first place because it was pointless. Empire didn't care if they were the evil ones so they destroyed Alderaan to maintain order in the rest of galaxy - from their point of view it was for greater good.

Many our world countries want to rid of US. Is that make US evil? Most of them was just angry on Empire because they lost their influences - Organa, Mon Mothma etc. lost their salaries as Imperial Senators which they were collecting for over 20 years and after the senate was no more they couldn't get any other normal job;p. Ackbar and Chewie have a good reason - Empire claimed them as lower species but the rest (mainly humans) was just fighting for power - Mon Mothma wanted to be Chancellor etc. or have some problems with law (and because of that with Empire) so they have no other option (rebels were mostly smugglers, thefts, traitors and other scum - one princess and few senators don't make diffrence;p). And about celebration after Emperor's death - I agree about Endor, maybe Bespin (it was Lando's place) or Naboo (queens of Naboo always was rebelious and gungans were lower species) but on Coruscant it can be just some Imperial's Independace Day or something like that;p On Imperial City they must have thousands of Troopers and many Star Destroyer do you think they will let the people celebrate Emperor's death like this? You are saying they were evil so I don't think that such demonstration would take place;p

Bad things happen on war. In our world's recent wars even in good and democratic country's armies we have examples of torturing prisoners of war or killing civils (fortunatelly mostly by accident but still) and does it mean that whole army of that country is evil or whole nation is evil? As I said not everything is black and white.

In our world many animals are creating something like society - herds, packs etc. with leader, jobs (some are hunting, some are scouts) and own rituals for example mating. Beavers even are building things like dams. I know they all are live beings but should we treat them as equal to humans? About Jawas, if you find a case with million $ are you keeping it or reporting this to police? When they found those droids they should return them to Imperial lost&found office, maybe they will be even rewarded - but they decided to keep not theirs property so they stole them. Also sale wasn't legal because I didn't see any receipts in movie;p You can't know what would happen if Luke joins Imperial Academy - i don't think he care about politics in that time, he just want to go away from Tatooine and after Obi involves him in fighting the Empire he stay with friends (because he was already brainwashed by rebels;p). If Obi and R2 would not shown up and he would join Imperials, maybe he would make some new friends there and stay with Empire. In A New Hope we didn't see Stormtroopers killing Owen and Beru so it isn't so obvious, it can be just another Kenobi's lie. For me the real version of this is in Troops - after argue with Owen Beru uses thermal detonator to kill herself (because she thinks Luke run away when Owen lied about his father and forbid him to join the Imperial Academy) and Owen died when he tries to stop her. Stormtrooper were there just to maintain peace and then was wrongfully accused by notorious liar - Kenobi. You are telling my point of view is wrong. But your only argument is that Empire was evil and rebels were good. For you everything is black and white, life isn't that simple - it's made from many shades of grey.

About monkeys which can fly a ship try to read about Enos. He was sent in space in Mercury-Atlas 5.During flight he has to push buttons and switches in correct order and he has done it. About Twi'lek slavery, who wouldn't want to have Twi'lek female slave? It wasn't open war like Republic vs CIS, it was fight of government with terrorists, and all activities of terrorists are illegal. Empire maybe sometimes do evil things, but rebels are doing the same. But many people say that the rebels are the good ones so everything they do is good. What is the diffrence in killing innocent when one kills for maintain peace and order in his country and the second is killing in the name of freedom for republc? And to Sambeta When do we see the Empire execute moisture farmers? In the film the only thing about this is Kenobi saying to Luke that this was Imperial's job - well I wouldn't believe Obi in anything. He only says thing from his point of view. He lied to Luke about his father, he could lie to him about his uncle and aunt (making Luke angry at Stormtroopers helps Kenobi take him on Alderaan to join rebels - before that Luke wants to join Imperial Academy) For me the real version of Owen and Beru death is that in film Troops - link in my first post.

The points is that rebels weren't so innocent like everyone thinks. Empire kills innocent people but the rebels do the same. And from the point of citizen of Empire rebel were the terrorist here because they were fighting with legal government.

Truth depend on point of view. In the films we see galactic civil war from eyes of rebels and Empire is shown as evil. But try to look on this from eyes of Empire's citizen. Armed and dangerous group attack your country's army - they are terrorists. Palpatine and few others maybe were evil but not everyone in Empire was. For example Stormtrooper which set blaster to stun to capture Leia, was killed by her with cold blood. He was only doing his duty, he was serving his country, he doesn't want to kill her only to capture her, yet she kill him (she knows that she couldn't escape or kill whole Star Destroyer so what the point of killing just one another Stormtrooper and maybe she killed someone's husband or father).

1. About slavery of lower species in Empire: monkeys, especially chimpanzees are pretty intelligent, we can already learn them much for example pushing buttons etc., they also have feelings, they sometimes happy and sometimes sad but is this means we have to give them civil rights? People instead of that locked them in cages i zoo and pay to watch them, isn't this slavery? 2. Datamonger send link with clerks discussion about rebel terrorism problem. Like them I agree that if they kill thousands of innocent workers on Death Star II at the battle of Endor something is not right here. Also for me group of armed people hidden on some abandoned planets who strikes against legal government and then again go into hiding are terrorists. 3. Destroying Alderaan was necessary evil - the billions on planet was nothing to population of galaxy. And Empire didn't have a chance of removing Alderaan's terrorist by sending there Stormtroopers (it never works well, for example anti terrorist operations in our world)

Let's talk about why the Empire was better than the Republic: Republic: 1. All we have in Senate is chaos and corruption, Chancelor is only representant. 2. Forbidden slavery still existed for example on Tattoine (Republic lovers will tell that Tatooine wasn't in Republic's jurisdiction) 3. In Republic we have Jedi Order - a group of arrogant fighters, which interfere in politics and because of their Force think they were above the Senate and can decided for them (for example decision to kill legally elected and supported by majority of Senate leader for his religion, or to take army created for Republic to attack neutral in that time CIS to rescue few Jedi Knights (they didn't know a senator was there because they ordered Anakin to stay with Padme on Tatooine) - all of Jedi decisions was explained as will of the Force. 4. Jedi can steal anything they want - for example Anakin make requisition of speeder on Coruscant. 5. Most businesses was run by big corporations like Trade Federation, which have own army, have corrupt senators and do whatever they want (invasion on Naboo) 6. Republic senatotr which lost theirs influences in Senate like Organa started a terrorist group of Rebels which killed innocent people - for example workers on Death Star II Empire: 1. Order and peace with strong leader. 2. Slavery was mainly for lower species which can't speak Basic and at least it was taxed (Also there aren't any planet beyond Empire jurisdiction) 3. We have freedom of religion - nobody anymore must believe in Force which controls everything 4. Theft are punished - for example Jawas which stole droids. 5. Empire make things easier for small business - even smuggler like Lando start to run his own legal business on Bespin and it was still profitable to him. 6. I know that many will say now about Alderaan - but it was home of terrorist for 20 years. And about Luke's aunt and uncle it was all just another Kenobi's lie, the truth is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcvFjtbskZk
