Dec 9, 2016 at 15:42 comment added TheLethalCarrot @Ward The two objects are mutually exclusive, the Death Star IS NOT Starkiller Base, will people stop trying to close this as a dupe of that

Dec 9, 2016 at 12:28 comment added Sebustyan @Plutor Exactly. The first time it was used we will (most likely) see in the upcoming Rogue One.
Dec 9, 2016 at 12:07 comment added Plutor Tarkin didn't call the use of the Death Star on Alderaan a "test". He called it a "demonstration". It wasn't the test of the Death Star, it was just the first time it was used publicly.
Dec 8, 2016 at 14:41 comment added Werrf @CHEESE Unless it turns out it doesn't work, and they just alerted the Republic to the existence of YET ANOTHER Death Star, and the attempt to use it against them, igniting the war with the Republic that they were trying to avoid. There's a reason the US tested their first a-bomb in New Mexico, not Hiroshima.

Dec 8, 2016 at 12:51 comment added Matrim Cauthon Yea it also seems like a pretty expensive test to me.
Dec 8, 2016 at 12:50 comment added TheLethalCarrot @CHEESE Me too, I was just wondering if they had tested it previously, I mean they effectively wipe themselves out if the planet blows up. Although not completely as Kylo Ren is on his ship...
Dec 8, 2016 at 12:49 comment added CHEESE What's wrong with testing against the republic? Seems like a great way to test it to me!
