      Here are some changed facts -
      I read in a magazine article that originally the Clones from the Clone Wars were going to be the Army that fought against the Jedi & The Republic. This was back in '86 or '87 when I read the article.
      I think George changed it so the Jedi weren't constantly cutting down "people"......but instead then have the Clones turn on them at the end like we saw.
      Darth Vader would have fought Obi-Wan on the edge of a volcano until he fell in on the side catching fire as Obi-Wan walked away because the smoke was too thick to see Vader crawl into an empty lava tube for safety.
      Han was suppose to die saving everyone at the end of Return (Revenge) of the Jedi.
      The Emperor was not going to be a force user. Just an evil corrupt politician. So no rule of two. No Sith. Just light side force users and dark side force users.
      Either Vader or Obi-Wan killed Luke's father. Don't know for sure because one was a fake script....
      Luke and Leia weren't twins. Luke had a sister, but she was hidden somewhere else. Luke would have turned to the dark side until his sister showed up to save him back to the good side!!!
      Oh, and NO Ewoks! It would have been Wookies on the Endor Moon.
      This could have been good if fleshed out and tightened up a bit. I am glad what we got though. The Ewoks could have been more vicious so that it showed they could fight the empire. Either way, I grew up with the O.T. and I love it!!!!

      A military loss almost never comes down to one event or non-event. In actuality Thrawn would most win if either of those events happen in isolation but together and the rebellion lives to fight another day. Ezra escapes but Thrawn isn't ordered to capture the leadership. He'd of been able to just batter the base shield down shot the base up for a bit make sure to take out all the starships and send in the group forces to them capture or kill the survivors. Ezra and the Mandarins would have needed to not only take out the second Interdictor but also emergency medical evacuation.

    The last wave of Clones that were babies in the test tubes before being relocated to new Imperial facilities were born in 19 BBY meaning that ever Clone generation at that point was getting smaller and smaller due to less and less of them being in service compared to the regular recruits who joined up and replaced most retirees. By 0 BBY the last batch of Clones were 38 in Human years, so when they became ready to fight in 10 BBY they were already a smaller Clone generation and after that the replacement process only sped up with that being the final new batch of Clones to join the ranks of the Imperial military.

    The Star Wars writers screwed up even writing the clone troopers. And they got the error from classic science fiction novels like Dune.
    Maturation and aging are not the same process. Maturation, an organism growing from an infant stage to an adult is driven by an increased rate of cell division and hormones. Aging is the process of DNA accumulating errors over time, which impairs the function of cells, tissues, and organs. You realistically could have a child grow to maturity at an accelerated rate, then have them live a normal human lifespan. They'd still get old before normal humans because, but only about a decade before.

    The empire had no issue dealing with its internal security but after Yavin and open galactic war declared the empire would struggle militarily.
    Instead of wasting his strategic acumen playing secret police man Yularen could have stayed in the navy and been promoted to a grand Adlerian or a moff. In such a high position Yularen could have used his experiences from the clone wars to cold the Navy doctrine rather than relying on the Tarkin Doctrine.

    "Officially, there never was a clone rebellion on Kamino. Unofficially, approximately twenty years after we were created, a special detachment of the Imperial 501st Legion was dispatched to Kamino, with orders to eradicate an army of clones that had been bred to take arms against the Empire. Our mission commander, an expert on the inner workings of Kamino, was a young bounty hunter named Boba Fett."
    "The bounty hunter left after the battle was over. He said something about tracking down a smuggler on Tatooine. After the Kamino uprising, the Emperor decided that an army of genetically identical soldiers was too susceptible to corruption. Future troopers would be cloned from a variety of templates. Though the 501st itself remained pure, the rest of the Imperial Army gradually became more and more diverse. We never really got used to the new guys."

      Disney did not partcipiated that Cody work with the empire, Disney was only keep Cody as a Hero, Not a Villain. We will see that Cody remove his chip in the trailer in D23.
