| Jun 8, 2011 at 13:59 | comment | added | Chad | Remember that Leia was a Senator and there would have been severe consequences for killing her. While her capture was highly desired there was most likely a standing order forbbiding killing her. This can also help explain supressive fire as they are chasing through the halls. And must also explain why the rebal blasts seemed to have explosive effect where the Stormtroppers shots just sort of flashed with a little scorch. | |

| Jun 8, 2011 at 7:14 | comment | added | Doctor Doom | Nice question, Ryan! The fate of Death Star was dependent of Stormtroopers, so they must be hand-picked advanced warriors. Nevertheless, they lost kiddie battle.. | |
| Jun 8, 2011 at 4:53 | comment | added | Tango | Perhaps they were all excellent marksmen until they executed General Order 66. Then they were subject to the Principle of Evil Marksmanship. So, really, it's not their faul. | |
