>>100511262>>100511179Because the old Empire was ran by a bunch of incompetents, the world's most arcanely gifted and devilish ballbag, a pissed off crippled, black magic samurai, one competent british dude who died in the first film of the OT, and a half decent man who clearly enjoyed his life more as a Republic officer (judging by the amount he's been stress eating).
If Vader didn't look forward to potentially running into Jedi, and practising new techniques, he'd have told Sidious to hire some more goons after the first year.
With those guys dead, the Empire literally became:
>Alright generals, we've saved your skins, let's move out->Alright but first you need to do *really stupid thing*>But sir, *really stupid thing* is unnecessary, daft, and doesn't help us at all->WE NEED TO SHOW THESE REBELS A LESSON! Or do you want to end up life Jenkins, who recieved an enema and a straightjacket for his insubordination?>Fine, whatever.>We're putting a warning down in your file, just in case. Note to self, use straightjacket first, then the enema.
