I don't think they would have been able to carry on, due to heavy loss of personnel and supplies.

dodonna and ackbar would of been different and im sure there were many events done by dodonna which saved the fleet

Meyer · « **Reply #42 on:** October 22, 2007, 09:58:02 AM »

not after DS was destroyed. little later Dodonna was captured by imperial forces. so had he dies wouldn't have matteres much, in fact he was believed dead by rebels.

vadereclipse · « **Reply #43 on:** October 22, 2007, 10:05:32 AM »

he didnt die
he was prisoner on lusankya
he didnt die until 24 ABY

Meyer · « **Reply #44 on:** October 22, 2007, 11:20:51 AM »

I know that. but after their retreat from Yavin Iv, rebels thought he was dead. But when Corran Horn was taken prisoner by Ysanne Isard, he found out that Dodonna was. And when Horn escaped he told it to everyone else.

so for the majority of the GCW, he was in prison
it wouldnt have caused any difference
but im sure that much of the supplies of the rebels were there
plus, solo, leia and luke were crucial
luke and han would have died if the death star destroyed Yavin 4

Meyer · « **Reply #46 on:** October 22, 2007, 11:36:42 AM »

but they weren't on Yavin at that time.

Scarecrow63 · « **Reply #47 on:** October 22, 2007, 08:06:57 PM »

Leia was

And Luke and Han were outside of a battle station with 7000 starfighters, not such good odds

Not to mention the fact that if they had destroyed Yavin, Luke and Han would probably already be dead anyway

Meyer · « **Reply #48 on:** October 23, 2007, 12:29:57 AM »

no if lukes torpedos just hadn't destroyrd the station. and Tarkin didn't see them as a threat so he didn't send any fighters at all. the fighters that attacked rebels were all from Vader's personal squadron.

thus destroying the rebellion effectively

Meyer · « **Reply #50 on:** October 23, 2007, 06:14:09 AM »

but it never happened. sadly. and that wouldn't have destroyed the rebellion. they still had a fleet.

vadereclipse · « **Reply #51 on:** October 23, 2007, 06:45:21 AM »

1.why sadly?
2. what fleet? is there any evidence of a fleet
the fleet would be blind strategically
i dont think they had ackbar by then

Meyer · « **Reply #52 on:** October 23, 2007, 07:47:42 AM »

1. because I support the Empire.
2. yes they did have a fleet and numerous other bases. Yavin just was one of the largest but the loss/destrution of Yavin wasn't so big blow to the rebels. they would have resurfaced. I mean Hoth was more important than Yavin and look how they survived that.

Scarecrow63 · « **Reply #53 on:** October 23, 2007, 04:08:55 PM »

But the rebellion was much more powerful at Hoth, and i dont know what other big bases or fleets the rebellion had at that time (and by big bases i mean anything other than outposts and safehouses)

vadereclipse · « **Reply #54 on:** October 23, 2007, 06:41:24 PM »

hmm
im the only pro-rebellion
ill hide somewhere

out of question, what do you think of mandlalorians?
i think they are cool

sarcronis · « **Reply #55 on:** October 23, 2007, 09:37:02 PM »

Start a new thread.

try to stay on topic

Meyer · « **Reply #57 on:** October 24, 2007, 12:36:55 AM »

so I should add Tarkin on the list then. Is that what you want vadereclipse?

vadereclipse · « **Reply #58 on:** October 24, 2007, 05:55:56 AM »

was tarkin really a big loss for the empire though?
i mean they probably saved lives through retreat
he wouldnt retreat out of an asteroid field

Meyer · « **Reply #59 on:** October 24, 2007, 11:07:48 AM »

what I meant by my question was that should I add Tarkin to the lsit of who get closest about destroying rebels/NR.

Poll

Which Imperial leader came closest to destroy the rebellion/NR?
