Guest Redwing Posted March 19, 2001 Posted March 19, 2001 I have been mad at the Rebels ever since reading about the necessarily fatal consequences of destroying the Death Star over the Endor moon at http://theforce.net/swtc/holocaust.html (The poor Ewoks! ) I have been desperately trying to think of an explanation, and at last I have! Here it is... (quote) Could the rebels have activated the shields from Endor right after the explosion of the Death Star II, thereby containing most of the matter within the confines of the shield radius? No. The trouble is that they blew up the shield already, in order to allow the rebel fighters access to the station. Wouldn't there have been more than one shield generator? The Empire could have built multiple ones in case one failed. My scenario is: Right after the generator blew up in ROTJ, Rebel fighters intercepted Imperial transmissions telling troops to activate another shield. Unfortunately all troops had gone over to the first generator (guarded by Han Solo). And all the troopers originally working at the backups had been called away to help finish the Death Star by the panicked moff in charge ("We shall double our efforts, my lord.") Then one of the Rebels realized what would happen to the moon if the Death Star blew up and told Rebel troops to commandeer the backup shield generators. They did so, and activated them immediately after the Death star blew up, holding the vast majority of pieces outside the atmosphere until they could be cleaned up, thus saving the Ewoks. ------------------ At last we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi. At last we will have revenge.
Guest Rogue9 Posted March 19, 2001 Posted March 19, 2001 Yah, I didn't see anying wrong with the Endor Problem
Guest Imladil Posted March 19, 2001 Posted March 19, 2001 Wally the space dolphin says that the Ewoks are just like wookiees, only smaller and more annoying, so we should do whatever we can to keep them from gaining a foothold in the galactic population, beginning with orbital bombardment by flaming, radioactive debris and eventually proceeding to the 'sterilization' of the entire forest moon by means of thorough ground troops. I think this is just the cetacean fear of small, furry bipeds manifesting itself. ------------------ 'Rieekan, this is the commander! It's imperative that you kiss my fuzzy pink @$$...!'
Guest Redwing Posted March 19, 2001 Posted March 19, 2001 I liked the Ewoks. They were pretty funny. ------------------ At last we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi. At last we will have revenge.
Guest Redwing Posted March 19, 2001 Posted March 19, 2001 Besides I saved Endor too...it wouldn't look pretty as a wasteland. ------------------ At last we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi. At last we will have revenge.
Guest rebel alliance Posted March 20, 2001 Posted March 20, 2001 they were funny yet....stupid I could go either way
Guest Imladil Posted March 20, 2001 Posted March 20, 2001 Think of it as a safety issue, then. We can't have those things running around our spacestations, can we?
Guest Rogue9 Posted March 20, 2001 Posted March 20, 2001 and with a smal change to the words... KIRK "How'd you get rid of them Scotty" SCOTTY "Why I used that transporters Sir" KIRK "You didn't..." SCOTTY "No, Sir I didn't beam them over to the Klingons, even they don't deserve that" KIRK "Then How..." SCOTTY "I Spaced the Little Buggers, Didn't seem right to foist 'em off on the Klingons, after all nothing is more evil than a ewok" KIRK "Excellent Decision Scotty, I'm putting you in for a Comendation."
Guest Rogue Renegade Posted March 20, 2001 Posted March 20, 2001 Well, according to that article the destruction would have taken place right after the explosion. Too bad! According to George Lucus, they celebrated on the Endor Moon and Vader was laid to rest following the explosion. In a fictional world, the fiction-creator's word is final. Why would you stress over speculation? It didn't happen!
Guest Redwing Posted March 20, 2001 Posted March 20, 2001 You could have said something earlier when I was still stressing ... Without the Ewoks, the Rebel fleet would have been utterly destroyed...think about that. ------------------ At last we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi. At last we will have revenge.
Guest Rogue9 Posted March 20, 2001 Posted March 20, 2001 shott the Bloody Criters, save yourselves if you can't get them before they catch you, they will eat you if you don't escape.
Guest Rogue9 Posted March 20, 2001 Posted March 20, 2001 If not for the Ewoks the Rebels could have gotten to the Facility before the Imperial Reinforements, Blown it up and Left, INstead the 'Woks captured the Alliance forces and Delayed there attack Originally posted by Redwing: You could have said something earlier when I was still stressing ...

Guest Dark Sad Shadow Posted March 20, 2001 Posted March 20, 2001 they are a great fur carpet ------------------ The shadows become the reapers... we are becoming less humans...
