I would think that augmenting the Endor battle with some new footage shot of Rebels taking out Imperial troops and the Ewok traps happening in tandem (because the Imps would be ignoring the Ewoks to focus on the Rebels), would make the battle a bit more ‘realistic’. The tide would turn due to Imps ignoring the natives rather than the impression that Ewok primitivism beats out their technology.

This of course would require whole new action sequences shot rather than background supplemental elements as the first two Revisited chapters. All the action in the Endor ground battle happens around the main characters, except the sequences of Ewoks diminishing the Imps. Taking that cue and in that segment of sequences, I do not see why some creative rebels versus Stormtrooper and officer action is not able to be choreographed and shot.

Anyone remember the fan film trailer for "Tyderium’? I think they even shot huge ground battle sequences in a forest for their fan film. With the right storyboarded sequences and a good stateside second unit director - anything is possible. Could even show a squad of rebel commandos going up against whatever Elite forces Emp has “waiting for them”. Maybe they were around that AT-AT that delivered Luke and maybe someone can diagram a sequence where the rebels are getting decimated and sacrifice themselves to take out that Walker and the landing platform. Could be a spectacular sequence if done right.
