I wondered that about crashing the ship into the other ship too. The Empire wouldn't have had so many expensive capital ships around if you could just Hyper-ram it with a much smaller ship.

And why didn't they just do it with one of the other ships earlier?

And what the heck was all of that anyways? Most boring chase scene ever. No one can go faster or outmaneuver the other, the guns don't shoot far enough to wipe them out, and there is time to go do a whole lot of ridiculous stuff to save everyone that doesn't even work in the end.

Maybe no one ever thought to do it.

Plenty of cultures never developed the wheel which seems like a no brain-er.

Got my Star Wars Legion stuff today. Should be fun to paint up and play.

While I have seen all the SW movies except for The Last Jedi, I'm not totally into the IP. I haven't read the books, comics, watched the animates shows, played the video games etc. But I have a couple buddies that bought into this game as well, and there are a bunch of guys in my group that are huge SW fans, so I know that it will get played and that's half the battle

Looks awesome. I still have to paint up a bunch of my imperial assault figures. Im actually going to repaint all my stormtroopers and snowtroopers. Back when I started painting I didnt realize how big a pain it was to paint white and need to strip those ones.

This guy on the Star Wars Legion FB page seems a bit confused

Being confused was a joke

The guys in red will be the first to get killed.

I went and saw Solo in theaters and enjoyed it quite a bit. I would put Rogue One ahead of it but I really, really liked Rogue One a lot so that isn't a knock just a reference point. I'd watch it again before I'd throw in The Force Awakens or The Last Jedi, the farther away from those movies I get the more I don't think they were very good.

Now I'll also preface this by saying that Solo is they type of movie I find enjoyable, crime dramas and the like are certainly up my alley. The stakes are really low in comparison to the Skywalker saga as the Galaxy in not in peril, only the lives of the various characters (and many of them don't make it). I really enjoyed The Wolverine and Logan though as well because I like these simpler more personal stories, I also like the big X-Men movies where they save humanity but the smaller stories also have their place. The movie felt more like a couple of hours of a really good tv show rather than a summer blockbuster, but again that is what I wanted from a Solo origin story. I loved the Firefly TV Show and described it to friends who hadn't seen it yet as the story of Han Solo had the Empire won in RotJ, well this fits movie fits in with that idea pretty well. Han and Mal are a couple of good guys just trying to survive and stay out from under the thumb of an oppressive/corrupt government by operating on the fringes of society. A good time, and one cameo that took me by surprise.

Its good to hear an actual starwars fan say something good about a recent starwars movie. I wont be watching this one probably until its on blueray. I was really dissapointed in the last jedi and didnt care too much for force awakens. I really liked rogue one. I think the disappointment comes from the fact that they have so much lore to work with but produce crap.
