Getting back to the premise, the idea that the Empire is now rounding up all surviving Alderaanians is a bit of a stretch. I can understand that there'd be concerns over fomenting thoughts of revenge but to act so swiftly to start rounding them up a day after the destruction of the planet is...questionable.

First Luke has a duel with Vader right after ANH, and now this. *sigh*

If Disney had done the smart thing and made the nuEU non-canon like the Star Trek EU, I wouldn't be having any problem with these writing decisions as they'd all be self-contained and have little to no impact on other stories written in the future. As it, though, I'm seeing the nuEU shaping up to be another clusterfuck of poor ideas just like the old EU was.

 I hadn't thought it would be otherwise. I've almost completely lost interest in the EU at this point. I'm not as enthusiastic about Star Wars as I once was, and even the OT no longer holds my interest as strongly as before.
