It'd be a ragtag collection of aliens,

Probably the only ones with legitimate cause... :dead

mercenaries,

Who don't give a damn about legitmate causes, freedom, equality or democracy but money. See Union. :D

smugglers,

Because the *new* government these aliens, mercenaries, thrill seekers and lovers of freedom, equality and democracy bring about will definitely support one's freedom to smuggle. :yuck

thrill seekers,

Yes..yes... it's all a game until their homeworld get's blown up and then it dawns on them, "Damn, this shit is for real!" o_O

and those who simply fight for freedom, equality, and democracy because they believe everyone deserves to have it...

..and because there are so many examples of how well it's worked so far.. See: Old Republic...wait... See: New Republic...wait... See: Galactic Coalition... :ohwell

(like Leia was in the first rebellion).

She was also 18. And a virgin. <--- I just threw that last one in there for no reason. :O

I don't think Azguards would be the core of the Rebellion...

What? Who better than those who make hating the Empire a religious euphoric experience? :b

I'd say it'd be more general like, aliens are the core of the rebellion.

Which is run, ironically, by their human elite. Or should I say, by their rich human elite. :glance



:grin


Still, your points are well taken.

Poor Imperial Farmer Boy deploy! *throws Irtar at you!*

Beff Pike

I just want to blow things up.

See; Sathora. See; the KJB. See; my underpants.

This reminds me, I wish to speaketh to you.

Wouldn't it have been awkward if Leia had given it away to Luke? Oh man, that would really make life difficult.

Anakin II Skywalker having hemophelia, six teeth, and retardation would have dinged up the whole epic-ness of the EU series a little.

He still wouldn't have done as much damage as the Gungans did.

I wish to speaketh to you.

PM may have to suffice for a time.

Han Solo? Lando? I think people actually like it when the shady guys decide to fight for the good guys, paid or not... it always works out in the end because we exist in a magical fairy land named Star Wars where the shady guys are all eventually converted to the good cause! The really bad mercenaries all go work for TNO, everyone knows that.


Rich human elite? Only in the Empire, Simon Kaine. You breed them, it's like bunnies!


I'm sorry you underestimate the human capacity for true compassion and spirit among your population of propoganda fed sheep. I will show your citizens the freedom and prosperity that the Old Republic and the New Republic enjoyed, and I will show them how your Empires of the times viciously ended both. They will see how your armies stomp out those who would stand for freedom, and rumbles of discontent will spread even among the humans. Let's face it, humans can't help it they always want more. So do teddy bears with pointy sticks. Who knew?


You elitist imperial snot, the very system you admire and emulate blew up my homeworld! Jerk. I'm going to spread scary bedtime stories among your population telling about how you put monsters in children's closets so the tooth fairy won't come. They'll all learn to fear and hate you. Bwaahahahahaha!


Maybe Leia was a virgin. You know you wanted her.


:p ;) :p ;) :p

:yuck

People might be compassionate, but they're also stupid. Case in point: the American people. They elected an idiot, twice. Imagine what they would do with a propaganda kind like Simon Kaine in charge. ;)
