Just thinking, what with Ep 3 on it's way and Ep 2 ending with Doku taking the plans to where ever...
how long does it take to build this fucking thing? huh?!?
between the end of ANH and the begening of ROTJ the second one is almost complete...
does it really take them 20+ years to build the first one?
the technology of the SW world has somewhat plateaud considering the lack of significant advancement over a few thousand years...
So it is only fair to asume that both Death stars took roughly the same time to build. (sure maybe the second one would have been quicker considering the experience of building the first one but then the loss of the original, aside from the loss of personel, would have been a major setback in rescorces and tactical supplies... Darth Vader was alone in space in a tie fighter... so it would have taken him a while to get to the nearest Imperial Embassy or Star Destroyer fleet. He would have had to maintain radio silence while excaping considering the large number of rebel ships in the area...
So either way, the whole "DS2 would have taken less time to build" is right out!!!
so we are suppose to beleive that they build the DS arounf the end of Ep #3.
that being the case... why does it take over 20 years for anyone to finnally test it?
Motti says something in ANH that leads us to beleive the DS only recently became operational at that point.
so what happened? not enough clonestruction workers?
huh?
