Nope nope nope. That comparison paves the road to The Hague. “Don’t murder randos on your government’s dime” was in Geneva Protocol I, back when we still thought gas attacks and torturing prisoners was good ol’ gentlemanly warfare. Don’t be worse than the guys from poetry times, man.

Youknow I’ve had these pikes lying around forever so yeah, you know what, revolution, why the hell not

Even guilty might be fine, this guy also doesn’t pay his bills

Ok but you get that that’s also fake, right

??? How would debris be slowed by inertia? That’s not how inertia works.

Falling screws ARE a danger to real-life aircraft, tho. In atmosphere-less microgravity, debris will move in every direction away from an explosion, including towards the attacking ship, and be slowed only be inertia. That’s why the original script where Luke had to make the Trench Run three times made no fucking…

Warp Drive is explicitly FTL.

The fact that the Supremacy wasn’t vaporized shows that shields would make a hyperspeed planet buster impossible. People seem to be forgetting those exist.

Unless your target uses, I don’t know, force fields capable of stopping high- powered particle weapons or something

Well, they go out of their way to call it a Dreadnaut and NOT a Star Destroyer, so maybe it isn’t a carrier? Only meant for planetary bombardment?

So the way you figure it, the events of every film except TLJ take place over several years, and in all that time together on the Falcon, Luke and Leia never bothered to compare notes on their parentage? L’il Annie was just a very youthful looking 20-something during the Battle of Naboo? Starkiller Base was visible…

Seriously? You’re arguing that Star Wars doesn’t have FTL? Pretty lucky that Alderaan and Tattooine were so close together, then, I guess. Like, significantly less than 0.0009 parsecs close. Also Yavin. Some “galaxy” that is.

There is microgravity in all those situations. ESPECIALLY Leia getting back to the ship. She didn’t fly, she pulled lightly and let physics handle the rest

Extra mass, rocks or otherwise, would actually add damage, but as you say, it would also be too much for their smaller hyperdrives to bring to an adequate speed.

Two ships that

Armor and onboard explosives contribute nothing to a lightspeed collision except their mass. Pay more attention in school.

All that matters at the speed of light is mass. The relative length of the Raddus would be immeasurably small at the moment of collision.

You realise, though, that the ability to move in three dimensions creates a combat situation where you’re literally always “behind” enemy ships even when you’re “in front” of them because momentum can drive then into you equally either way, right? There’s a reason rear gunners never aim up or at anything moving faster…

The engines are specifically described as not being cheap or widely available. Phantom Menace, ANH, and Empire all have major subplots driven by those facts. Same goes for the huge amount of fuel Holdo used.

You answered your own question. They lacked the fuel to go at a normal speed, and you’re mad they didn’t instead go way, way faster. If they could have done that, there wouldn’t have been a problem in the first place.
