Well, I'm glad people have come to realize and acknowledge the reality and existance behind "The Good Guy(s) Must Win" Syndrome. Either from the expolsion or from that invisible legion of stormtroopers. I mean, one can argue the AT-ATs and the legion could have been miles away, but a nuclear explosion that harms nothing outside a 30-foot radius is rather hard to miss and were I the ground commander, I would have gone to investigate. In the process, I probably would have "accidentally" stepped on the Rebels and thsoe Ewoks too. Then again, had I been the Imperial ground commander at the Battle of Endor.... Han throws his bag at an Imperial lacky, who screams the famous "Ah!" and falls down the needless shaft in Endor shield generator building. In comes a platoon of stormtroopers, led by none other than General Socl. Socl aims blaster at Han. "You Rebel scum..." Lowers blaster and takes a step back. "Execute th--" "Wait!" Han protests. "This goes against TGGMW Syndrome!" "Wa-wa-wa," Socl mocks Han. "Like I give a damn. Execute them!" Stromtroopers kill Han, Leia, Chewie, and the rest inside. General Socl goes outside, bodies being dragged by stormtroopers in the rear of the platoon to the open area where lie the bodies of the rest of the Rebel commando team. "Excellent, now--" "I say, I say! Over here!" a prissy voice echoes in the forest. "Were you looking for me?!" Imperials lok up to see a prissy gold protocol droid waving stupidly. "Get those two down here!" a lieutenant orders a squad of stormtroopers. "You fool!" Socl shouts, scolding the lieutenant. "Stop, stormtroopers! There's an easier way." Socl takes turns to a nearby AT-ST. "Shoot them!" The AT-ST driver disappears into the walker, turns the "head" and opens fire with a barrage of lasers, destroying the infamous droid duo. Suddenly the air fills with the echo of hoots as Ewoks leap up and fire their twig arrows at the Imperials. The Imperials hold their ground, the arrows bouncing uselessly off the stromtrooper armor and land at the feet of the officers, doing no damage at all. Socl is not amused. "Open fire!" Seconds later, the Ewoks are dead. In space: "Han will have that shield down; we've got to give him more time!" Lando pleas with Ackbar. Less than ten minutes later, the Emperor and Vader are dead, Luke is found and executed, and the Rebel force is defeated. Wait until I write what would have happened had I been in Piett's position.
