That's a good point on the line about Han's line, which to me further justifies making it a big ship. I don't see how it is outdoing the Executor. To me one is a Cadillac and the other is a Lincoln, but they're both luxury cars. I just have a hard time believing the Emperor would bring something smaller and leave the big ship with Vader. He's consistently shown that he's arrogant.
Even if we downscale the Eclipse, I don't think it should be the size of a regular Star Destroyer, nor do I think it should stay in the battle. The Rebels are already outgunned. We want their victory to be believable, and big or small, the Eclipse is sure to be a heavily armed vessel. And if we keep it for the battle, the story virtually demands that we address what would happen to it. We'd need to see its destruction as well.
I don't understand what you mean about two crippled Star Destroyers, Ron. Luke's line can stay, that's fine with me. I'll have to toy with the Jerjerrod scene and Vader in the hall as well.
I am talking about my opening mock up... Vader comes in after the 2 star destroyers are crippled by home 1... Perhaps it's not entirly clear what is supposed to be going on as it's very difficult when you cannot create somthing and only modify some computer game :(....
But basically I was suggesting that he would come in the executor instead of a normal star destroyer change that too now to the executor. and keep the executor arrives at DSII
The eclipse would not need downscaling after I hear the line from Han it's basically grants complete artisitic license and your right why would the emperor have a crapper ship than vaders. If the Eclipse had normal star destroyers with it then it would make sense they stay and the eclipse on it's own departs
