Apparently the first art is from by Brian Ashmore for a 1993 Topps Star Wars Galaxy 2 card set (which ended up being cancelled)

The second art is from Hugh Fleming for a 1994 Topps Star Wars Galaxy 2 card set (which did get released)

General Discussion While Star Wars's live action adaptions have had their ups and downs they succeeded in making Darth Vader terrifying. You can just feel the power and the hate. I never thought that him speed walking would be scary, but it is. What do you think about how he's been handled?

General Discussion What is your honest thought about Cal Kestis?

Post image

Gotta say: they did well dome writing him where he doesn't get all the abilities to be OP and one-shot anybody.

He did actually struggle and sometimes lost to enemies until, in the end, he adapted and won against the same opponents. (Even facing Darth Vader makes him unstoppable and unbreakable, which forces you to flee.)

His character did have a good development, going from "I can't kill someone; it is bad" to "Yeah. You are done for causing suffering, time to die."

Hopefully, we get to learn about Cal if Dinsey gonna make a comic or show but I prefer not for reason.

General Discussion Why were were clone troopers deployed on open ground outside their armored transports at Geonosis?

Post image
489 Upvotes

First of all, I know that the real reason we see clones and battle droids on the ground in the movie is for the spectacle...because it's a movie. The writers and SFX artists were not tacticians. But for the sake of argument, what is the in-universe, strategic reason for having "boots on the ground" in the open at Geonosis?

My understanding is that the Republic had two primary goals at Geonosis: 1) Prevent the CIS core ships from escaping, and 2) Capture the droid factories.

To prevent the core ships from escaping, the Republic deployed the laser-artillery walkers on the ground, which were the most effective weapon they had in their arsenal to bring down the core ships. However, the laser-artillery walkers were vulnerable to the spider-droids, roller-droids, and other "armored assault vehicles" being thrown at them by the Separatists. To protect the laser-artillery walkers, the Republic had gunships drop AT-TE walkers on the ground, which served the dual purpose of protecting the laser-artillery walkers and getting clone troops closer to the droid factories to capture them.

The AT-TE wallers and Republic gunships seemed to function like their real-world equivalents of armored fighting vehicles (AFV's) and attack helicopters, respectively. The AT-TE's, like AFV's, protected the artillery while maneuvering troops toward strategic points to capture. Meanwhile, the Republic gunships, like attack helicopters, provided support from the air, although they could not destroy that many enemy ground units due to their light armament.

It is at this point that I ask why the Republic deployed clone troopers on the ground before the AT-TE walkers had reached the droid factories. Despite the number of CIS droids attacking the laser-artillery walkers, I would think that there is no reason that the combined armaments of both the AT-TE walkers assaulting across open terrain and the Republic gunships supporting them from the air could not have destroyed ALL enemy battle droids. Why put troops on the ground in open terrain, thus exposing them to being literally blown up by all the heavy weapons coming their way? Why not leave them inside the protective armor of the AT-TE's until they reached the droid factory capture points?

In this respect, it would seem that the Battle of Hoth from ESB made a lot more sense: we didn't see Imperial stormtroopers deploy from the AT-AT's until they had reached the Rebel base for breaching. In the movie, as in real life, the AT-AT "armored fighting vehicles" protected troops during the advance across open terrain and had adequate armaments to fend off the Rebel speeders. At Geonosis, however, basic strategic reasoning that anyone can understand, whether or not they study real warfare, seemed not to be followed!

What do.you think is the reason? Am I missing something? Again, I know it"s "just a movie," but the abillity of Star Wars fandom to create reasonable in-universe explanations is unparalleled.

Movies The reason Scarrif is called Scarrif is because, when the director Gareth Edwards went to a Starbucks and they asked him for his name he said Gareth but the person heard Scarrif and after realizing they spelt his name wrong he realized it sounds pretty Star Wars so he named the planet Scarrif
