For example, on an Empire space station lvl 2 in skirmish, if you perform the glitch right, Lucky Shot will take about 2/3 of the stations life away, and each hardpoint would have around 33% of their life remaining. So disabling Lucky Shot was probably intended by Petroglyph 
. It probably IS possible to enable it again if you mess with some code, and hopefully it will be changed, because I'll be glitching 24/7 in gc if it is

The only ones who can control the dark are those who have been redeemed from the dark (and thus know the corrupting influence of dark and can successfully fight against it) such as Revan.

Quote
As Tyranus, Dooku became a Humanocentrist.[31] While he remained a connoisseur of alien art and antiquities,[111] he secretly despised most if not all of the corrupt aliens on the Separatist Council, though he reserved a measure of respect for the Geonosian Poggle. He divided the entire galaxy into two categories: threats and assets. The threat category was for beings or institutions that interfered with his personal advancement and would have to be eliminated, the asset category being for those who could aid, or at least not hinder his advancement.[31]
By the time of the Clone Wars, Dooku believed that the sorrow and injustice of the galaxy could only be responded to with anger and hate.[15] He came to believe that the Jedi Order should embrace the dark side and rule the galaxy alone without the interference of the Senate. As Tyranus, he planned to transform the Jedi into a Sith Army, and intended to forcibly recruit Force-users into its ranks.[31] While often assuming a genteel and civilized manner, Dooku had no qualms about torturing[63] or ordering the deaths of hundreds of his former comrades,[6] nor about committing any number of atrocities as leader of the Separatists.

Don't think so.

To avenge the workings of a Sith.
Actually Alderaan going Bye Bye was Tarkin's call.(Though I'm certain the Emperor did approve of his initiative)
Now, I admit that this does not include ones who enjoy doing evil just for evil's sake. These (like Palpatine) are not to my liking. In my opinion, so-called villains such as Thrawn, Pellaeon, and others (even Dooku) are not really villains; they are more anti-hero, more of a hero for the other side. Heroes are villains and villains are heroes, "from a certain point of view."
I found Dooku a fascinating character from his inception. His whole character is in response to Pride and Betrayal. He started off with good intentions but felt the "Ends Justify the Means" as his character progressed though you saw his Pride begin to take a more active role. He wanted to be the most powerful ever and be recognized as such as well as destroyer of corruption. Then Sidious worked him over and he began to lose sight of his original intentions, by Clone Wars end he was hardly recognizable morally. His last glimmer of humanity died on Vjun when he thought Yoda had betrayed him. After this he was fully and irrevocably lost to the Dark.

A SITH.*
(*I'm referencing a PS3 commercial where the spokesman rebukes the kid for whining about his grandma not giving up the controller: "You know what your grandmother did for fun? She pushed a hoop with a stick. With a stick. A STICK.")
Anyway, back on topic, revanchist is right about villians being heroes and vice versa. Lawful good is the absolute worst point on the spectrum, because of that situation he also mentioned. It's always more fun to watch the good guys take on the likes of Palpatine, because very little they do can measure up to, say, destroying a planet. Or the million other things Sith do.
