    That Corvette had kind of a dangerous look at the beginning. Just kind of hanging back, slowly moving behind the shuttle, slightly off angle. Love the idea of a steady beam of energy type weapon, similar to what the Republic units used to attack the Separatist Core ships from the ground on Genonosis.

      It was a nice addition, and I like that it's a fully established weapon as well. I believe we even saw them using that weapon in the Battle of Coruscant in the opening of RotS to shoot out of a Venator's hanger bay, and I believe in rebels there was even a B-wing version with a similar weapon to this one.

And for the question of interrogation, if it fails the rebelion could simply make them prisonner to then be sent to a tribunal once the war is won and after the formation of the New Republic.

      @@Timberwolf69 While we can debate our relatively small world Morales vs a fictional galaxy, Alderaan did have a small population. That in itself isn't justification for its destruction, but for a moment consider; anyone who was even remotely loyal to the Empire could of spoke out about treason to the Galactic Empire (Which would of spared the entire populace vs a handful of people in local government power), government that forgetting the meta information the viewers of the movie knows, was actually democratically voted for as reformation. We only dislike the Empire due to that meta knowledge we contain, but unironically Star Wars is art that imitates reality. If you dislike the Empire, you should dislike a lot of politics that people agree with, and go alongside each day. The success of the Empire and its propaganda, like all real life nations use today...would have the average person believe the Rebel are terrorists. Many in the core worlds, as well as outer rim actually see it that way as well. Hence why until the destruction of Alderaan, they were a small fringe band. Due to the destruction of Alderaan, kind of a mistep for the Empire in the long run, the Rebels were able to spin that as their own undeniable propaganda. To each their own, but this saga is one part religious war, vs ideology war in which Good and Evil are honestly in all actualities just shades of grey in comparison to warcrimes in the past before the "Galactic Civil War" period, very tame in fact.

    There's so much subtle storytelling in this piece.
    The way the Star Destroyer jumps out right at the start, suggesting that it has Other Chores Today. The way that two TIE Vigilants are assigned to escort the shuttle--probably dispatched from the Star Destroyer to escort the shuttle to its rendezvous with six sentry ships from Lancer Base, and prepared to jump back into hyperspace and rejoin their carrier in a few minutes (or, perhaps they even transferred with the shuttle FROM Larsa to a deep space rendezvous with the ISD, and are simply completing their run and will return to their home planet after). Two of the regular TIEs break off to intercept and inspect the Convor, leaving the Vigilants to march on with their charge. The way the Corvette IMMEDIATELY shifts from stealth mode to full combat mode--turning guns and spewing ships in seconds.
    It's a perfect illustration of how Rebel hit-and-run tactics caused the Empire so much trouble--all in under five minutes of time.

Give me Martian Heat Rays, Samus's arm cannon, phasers, rail guns, and that really cool spinny-rapid-fire-energy-beam-wheel from The Iron Giant...just tweak it a little to make it Star Wars, and maybe say "It requires Twizzlerite, which can only be made from the crystallized skeletons of this extinct species on this planet way over here."

    Man if this imperial remnant happened to have full versions of the Imperial Nebulon B from ECHenry.... damn... I'd have a stupidly huge grin on my face

    Wow that was one sweet surprise after another! I felt immersed in the story right away. loved the A-wing launch, and the modified tie and corvette. Definitely the kind of strategy you'd expect the rebels to use! Great out of the box thinking!👏

    I LOVED THAT, especially the launching of the A-Wings, and "They won't get past u-" Laser Cannons Disagree

    I would like to thank you creators for bringing to life what some of us fell in love with. Star Wars always about the spaceships and glory in combat. Not glowstick weapons and things like "the force."

    Love when the camera followed the side of A-Wing cockpit as it was launched. Epic work!

    This is amazing. I fell in love with Star Wars due to the game TIE-Fighter back in DOS days and therefore I really enjoy this kind of space skirmish scenes. Thanks so much to all who were involved with the making of this and the other videos. Great work!

      DOS??? That's absolutely radical, cutting-edge stuff compared to how I learned programming. Anyone remember the Commodore PET ?

    I love the rear of those Tie fighters. They are like the old toy version I have two of.

    I'm amazed. You're getting better with every single one of these.
    One might say you are on the verge of greatness.
