If its the enemy I guess I can understand it, like a mystical powers arm race.

Maybe, we can find a plot AROUND cloning without ANY stormtroopers clones at all.

You know, the bad guy finds a way to clone people and he begin to clone some high members of the Republic to take control, step by step. The Jedi begin to suspect something. Everyone's getting paranoid. And that is the Clone War, a kind of cold war...

You guys need to remember that Star Wars is NOT SCI-FI. It's a fantasy/western/adventure story set in space. Cloning should NOT play a large part in the plot or your heading into sci-fi territory. Using cloning to amass an army steers clear of sci-fi because it doesn't really affect the plot that their clones. However, replacing important characters with clones seems like a no no to me because it's a very sci-fi concept. Futuristic space tech is just an element of setting in Star Wars, not of plot.

I have to disagree.... It's clearly a mix of Sci-fi/fantasy. It could easily fit into either genre. Regardless, none of us would probably be even discussing clones if the term "The Clone Wars" had never been spoken. When i saw A New Hope the first time, I had an epic idea of what that looked like... And i'm sorry, you can't get around the sci-fi aspects when dealing with a clone war.... Just my opinion though.
