And the destruction of the Republic Fleet. That’s going to play a big role in the rest of the ST. I’m glad that it’s gone but at the very least it’s going to impact things in the future.It just seemed to me that blowing up the new republic and the entire fleet (like they would all just happen to be parked at that planet anyway) was just an excuse to go back to the way the OT was: a small band of people fighting a powerful enemy. We’re basically where we were at after ANH.
I was also dissappointed that TFA backed VIII and IX into a corner in which we’ll never see the Republic fleet. I’d love to see the Republic fleet in action at some point.
