Hey /k/, I'm thinking of moving to Turkana to take a lucrative starship maintenance position, but the recent skirmishes between the rebels and the empire in that sector have me worried. Does anyone know what the local weapon laws are like? I want to be able to keep my DL-44 in case anyone starts going door to door.
>>
>>23881525
I dunno, man, you get some seriously good combat duty pay on that new space station they're building, and the thing is so huge that you can barely tell that you're deployed.
>>
>>23881525
Rule of thumb, buddy. If there's a significant Imperial presence, your DL-44 is just as illegal as an X-wing.

Turkana is in rebel hands (for now at least)

I don't care what you do, I'm staying on Coruscant. Keep low and get in with the right crowd in the lower city, you'll be making more credits than a bounty hunter.

>>23881566
Rebellion's definition of control is as fluid and shifty as their doctrine.

Space under Imperial control is going to have capital warships all over it on a regular basis, with a guarantee that there's an Imperial-class Star Destroyer a very short jump away.

A system under Rebel control can expect, at best, that there's an MC-class vessel in a system that's sort-of near by, projecting force via fighter squadrons.

Very different definition of control. I'll bet 7/10 that Turkana has regular Imperial incursions that local Rebel forces don't directly contest.

I thought only lightsabers were the only weapons that were really prohibited?

>>23881525
OP, you'll be fine so long as you don't go blasting at an Imperial stormtroopers or get caught smuggling rebels.

If you did, you'd have a lot more to worry about than some illegal weapons charge. I heard that a few farmers got blown away on tatooine for just buying a few droids that happened to escape from a rebel cruiser.
>>
As a workaround, if you accept a mission or two as a bounty hunter, there are usually looser restrictions on them. I know this guy named Greedo and he was allowed to open carry on imperial worlds. All he did was take blue milk run jobs to catch smugglers or bail jumpers that he knew he'd never find.
>>
>>23881621
>>23881621
Nah dog. Dunno what rimward shithole you live in, but if there's any real concentration of Imps, if you need to ask, the answer is no.

With that said, anyone who has any grasp on subtlety can avoid Imperial attention, but yeah. As the letter of the law goes, anything remotely questionable will be assumed illegal by the guys who found it, and that's really all it takes to get you shifted to Kessel for the rest of your life.

>I heard that a few farmers got blown away on tatooine for just buying a few droids that happened to escape from a rebel cruiser.

Rebel shill detected. What the press doesn't tell you is that they bought the droids from JAWAS. I don't think a Jawa has ever sold anything they didn't steal. The Jawas probably stole the droids from the cruisers. I doubt a droid is smart enough to escape on its own.

They knew they were committing a crime and then they resisted when the stormtroopers came and asked.

Holonet, why the flying fuck aren't the TIE Avenger and Defender ready yet? Rebellion is beating the fuck out of Imperial logistics because we can't match their force projection without hyperspace capable small craft.

At least bring back the fucking Venators, with their 400+ carrying capacity and Victory-class firepower. The Star Destroyer Mafia is what's killing the New Order.

I find it hilarious that the old republic, at half strength taking into account the cis split, managed to mass produce effective fighters and bombers with shields and hyperdrives, but the empire, with a galaxy full of resources under it's control, claims it's too expensive to add hyperdrives and shields to it's craft, yet they produce those giant star destroyers and super star destroyers and death stars up the wazoo

I can confirm as a former Stormtrooper. I'm really just keen with staying neutral now, I got shook up after the battle on Hoth and was discharged with some mental something or other diagnosis.

All this to say, the politicians really don't know what its like to blast another man. To hear their insides cook from your plasma discharges. To see people crushed by AT-ATs.

And God was it cold, so damn cold! The only way to stay warm was in battle and to keep moving forward, over those dead bodies.

But I digress, on the bright side, I was able to smuggle out (with the help of some friends from my days on Coruscant) about 3 dozen E-11 rifles.
>>
>>23881817
The problem is abundance of manpower. Back in the old days, they only had clone troopers (if you believe those stories) so they had to make each one as effective as possible.

Nowadays with the thousands of worlds, the empire has billions of soldiers. They'd rather be able to throw them out into space in something instead of just having half their army sitting around, waiting for ships to be built.

Agreed, you'd think the emperor would just bring in the guards and waste those guys. We all know the emperor love's his military.

Just last week I had some dude in all black armor attacking some old wise-looking fucker in the middle of the god damn street, WITH GOD DAMN SWORDS OF LIGHT, that's some military spending right there man.

Not to mention the black guards with the black cape crusader whose armor was LITERALLY DEFLECTING the sword, which was rebounding and slicing droids in fucking two.

I'm a local metal worker in my town and the only metal that i know that can do that is Phrik, and that shit is god damn expensive, the only time i got to work with it was in a small scale test with a old scrap piece in college, and it cost the school nearly its entire budget to get.

It's better to keep one on you and keep it concealed. Rebels are terrible at rule of law, I heard they made a pirate or smuggler a general. When the chips are down, rebels won't care about citizens and the Hutts will rule the planet.

Agree with you on the A-wing bit, Star Wings would make bad interceptors, which is why they should be guarding our convoys against roving squadrons of ramshackle snubfighters and upgunned light freighters.

We should have TIE Avengers and TIE Defenders squaring off against the elite Rebel pilots flying advanced fighter designs. It'd work a lot better than stuffing everyone into flying coffins and hoping that the enemy gets scared.

>>23881817

And it's also pointless. 99.9 percent of TIE pilots are never going to see an X-Wing, and if you want to go chasing rebel fleets, you don't do it in snub fighters. The reason they decked out fighters in the old days is because they couldn't crank out enough ships and clones to fly them. The the CIS ran off with the financial and industrial sectors, but the old republic had no shortage of civvies and technicians to keep them flying. It's an outdated doctrine of caring whether the ship makes it back or not. You can either spend 200 man hours fixing a faulty shield generator on an X-Wing, or crank out 10 TIE's and train 10 idiots to fly circles around border worlds and not wet themselves when they see a blip on the sensors.

Oh don't listen to Rebel prop on that. The entire Rebel Fleet was shooting at the thing and that A Wing was loaded down with enough explosives to penetrate the shields on a standard Star Destroyer.

The big issue here is that all navigation controls were on an extended, exposed, lightly armored bridge instead of in the center of the hull. Imperial craft design is kinda stupid, maybe they wouldn't be getting their asses kicked so hard by a bunch of backwater smugglers if they knew how to build a good warship.
>>

It was doing it really well, 90% of the shielding was still intact, but from the released footage on galaxyleak it looks like they were trying to reroute shielding to the bridge right as the A Wing slammed into it.

>>23882292
Warships were fine, fighter compliments were insufficient, even for the swarm tactics TIEs were built for. 72 craft from each ISD is chump change, the old Venators could carry over 400, and that's including big fuckers like the ARC-170. But instead of retaining force projection, we tossed them out for the Victory-class, which carries all of two squadrons. TWO. Fucking bullshit.

If you plan on buying all 3 dozen of them, then yes. E-11's will go through just about any modern armor, especially if you hit within the same area. E-11s can do well in just about any environment, and how big are these bears you speak of?

That's because of Imperial strategy of using overwhelming numbers of low cost fighters against the enemy.

When the rebels see a cloud of tie fighters, not even the best pilot can beat it, and it becomes a Pyrrhic victory for the empire as they can stand to loose the fighters while the rebels cannot

Unless Rogue Squadron just shoots them all down, or any other competent Rebel fighter wing.

It doesn't matter if you have five times the ships they do if theirs are faster, stronger, and can shoot down a TIE in a single salvo while it takes multiple passes for a TIE to even get through the shielding, let alone blow through the armor.

Except that's not what actually happened. The TIE swarm alone worked wonders against backwater PDFs flying Headhunters at best. It didn't faze seasoned rebel pilots, nor did it stop their advanced fighters from running wild over ISDs and large installations.

There are two things that could have been done. For one, the Venator-class Star Destroyer could have been retained as a heavy carrier. It was removed from service because the smaller Victory-class matched its firepower, but the VSD's massive ventral hanger would have meshed perfectly with Imperial fighter doctrine. For two, advanced TIE designs could have been put into meaningful production and supplied to veteran TIE outfits. Even if only the cream of the crop would be flying Avengers or Defenders, those elite pilots would still outnumber their Rebel counterparts, while having craft that would easily outclass those they would be flying against. Instead, TIE vets flew the same deathtraps they came up in; this kills the veteran pilot.

>>23882507

It was slow and outdated bomber craft.

The new B wings fulilled the fighter bomber role of the Y wing while still being fast and well armed enough to defend itself.

You wouldnt believe the attrition rate of the Y wings. Any fucker high on force can sneak up from behind and blast them away.

Plus the Y wings needed 2 pilots to function in what seems to be just as a ion cannon gunner. A weapon not even capable of destroying a TIE Fighter and from the looks of Hololeak videos, arent even seen to work at all.

Moving onto imperial fleet doctrine. Which smart ass general thought that a giant moon could fulfill the function of what is probably 20 other imperial star fleets?

The rebels have at their best ONE fleet, their heavy cruisers all dependent on that squid world. Surely spending money to build more star destroyers or even 10 death star cannons would be a far better use of resources?

Why didnt the empire simply replicate the droid fighters in the clone wars into their tie fighter system?

Surely it would fill the role of cannon fodder and in the long term prove far less costly to maintain and quicker to construct? Allowing for more starship crews or contruction of advanced tie fighters.

pick one and only one, if the empire wants to shoot you they are going to. Might as well give yourself a fighting chance to shoot your way back to your ship and skip out. After all its not like you cant just go work on Nar Shadda as a maintenance tech. And there they pay cold hard credits and the hutts keep out the Imperial elements, not to mention they don't give a flying droyk what you do.

Well they are illegal but you can get them. They just ship 'em in as servants with concealed slave implants. The market in twi'lek slave girls in the lower levels of corescant is not impossible to find. Then you "hire" them and they don't have a choice in the matter. Easy. That said if you get caught its usually more of a slap on the wrist if its Imperal forces. They'll probably just confiscate you property to pass around the barracks before they deport her ass.

>>23881817
you don't have to pay clones...

They also were not dealing with a force the size of today's modern Imperial navy. Old republic fleets were not as large and did not have to perform the system security role that they do now. Simple tie fighters are very effective when employed en masse. Especially when we are talking about the pacification of pirates and interdicting smugglers. Besides its not like shields on a fighter give you more than a few extra hits anyway. It may sound harsh on the pilots but its better to have more fighters to police a system than to worry about loosing the odd pilot.
>>
>>23883369

remind me why these are a useful weapon? granted if you are charging repeating blaster emplacements accept to substitute since you can disintegrate the shit out of whatever you point it at. But aside from that it is limited in its utility. Give me a dl-44 or an e-11 any day of the week.
>>
>>23881926
they couldn't take on the rebel interceptors in a turning fight and were only really useful to lob missiles at long range. Since capital ships can do that and these things cost as much as a squadron of TIE's they decided that they weren't worth it anymore. Make a good commerce raider though. It's got the firepower and the shields to take on most transports and commercial fighter type craft.
>>
>>23883376
I don't think that anyone here is debating the effectiveness of TIE swarms on ragtag resistance cells and backwater militias. Where the TIE swarm fails is against the Rogue Squadrons, the Renegade Squadrons, and the Lightspeed Panthers, who rove abroad, striking against objectives throughout space and scything through Fighter and Interceptor grunts like Wookies in a nerfhouse. Numbers alone aren't enough to counter those assets; they can't reach far enough, stay long enough, or hit hard enough, and they're too fragile to allow an efficient cultivation of veteran pilots.

I'm pulling up some archives on the HK line, and "HK-47" doesn't show up at all. It has to be between the HK-27 and HK-50, which give a lot of leeway from the start of Mandalorian Wars to the end of the Jedi Civil War. Anything that old and not on records has to be one tough sonofabitch that won't hesitate in removing you.

In theory yeah, but it's not just the hyperdrives. No missiles or shields is crippling; TIEs can't engage outside of laser range, and they have no regenerative protection. A rebel pilot can take dozens of hits so long as they're spaced out enough for his shields to recharge. Even the best TIE pilot has the armor to take two, maybe three laser hits before he's space junk.

No worries I understood what you meant. anyways in my time as a Stormtrooper I served on multiple worlds, with my service ending after the battle of Hoth. Once on when I was deployed on Kashyyyk Boba Fett was hired to help our battalion break through the Wookie defense line.

The guy just danced circles around those giant creatures. he even managed to get on ones back and slit its throat with a blade he had hidden in his boot. The guy is hardcore.

Blastech and SoroSub are the only 2 companies that make half decent E-11 parts, but all the SoroSub blasters ended up inRebel hands and they have since stopped making them. So unless you can get a small weapons maker to custom build you stuff your only real option looks like Blastech.

Witty Declaration: The DL-44 is by far and large one of the worst blaster pistols I have ever come across, and it does not surprise me that you, being an organic, are quite fond of them. Suffice it to say that in combat you would not last long against any other current generation blaster, because after all, you are an organic, prone to sentimentality. It is quite laughable. What is more humorous to me is that you think you can survive even a minute fraction of a second in my presence, a meatbag fighting the inevitable processing by that which was created solely to do the Master's bidding.

Stormtrooper here

Our dark lord Darth Vader does not have problems with civilians the likes of you owning a laser rifle or laser shotgun or even a blaster pistor but here is one thing you civilians do not get...

Imperial planets that are under our leaders control all have their own laws regarding ownership of weapons.

For any of you that are on tight restrictive planets, news flash you peasents your on a planet that took either pre-war British political view point on weapons or pre-war japan political view point on weapons.

Now even though the planets are under our imperial laws and order the planets have few rights to run their own legislation laws and one of those just so happens to be weapon based related laws.

One of the planets that are close to our imperial circle has very very very few laws regarding on weapons the only exceptions is that you don't fuck with us. We won't blow up your original home planet with your families or blow your body into smithereens.

Now the rebels are the ones that are wanting a tight weapons ban and hord it all to themselfs.

Oh you did not know that?

Well it is because they do not want to let anyone know because those pesky rebels know that if any civilians knew their agenda on a full weapons ban then they would lose alot of their supporters and to keep this under control those rebels frame us stormtroopers as the bad guys and the imperial force as wanting to ban all weapons when truly it is the rebels that wants the weapons to be banned.

Don't believe me? Then go visit one of our popular imperial planets than go visit those pesky rebel owned planets and then come back and tell me which is better.

Trust me I know you would not really want to live on a rebel planet nor a republic planet where even a pre-war firearm is considered offensive now would you?

All hail Darth Vader

Just tell me some were you are and what the situation is like and whats left of us might be able to liberate you.

Nope. Blasters rely on particle beams, which create a huge amount of blast and shrapnel. This can be seen in the Detention Center scene in ANH, when an unarmored Imperial Navy trooper gets killed by a near-miss. That's one thing that separates the shiny whites from your average grunt; they're impervious to blast and shrapnel from blaster weaponry.

Also, blaster ammo is light as fuck. E-11s fire 500 shots per power pack. 2200 bolts is a minimalistic loadout.

Hell's teeth, you're a tougher man than I. However, if you want some extra firepower, here's what you do. You get an RT-97C, I don't care how, and chop the barrel down about halfway. You then weld the collimator nut back on, and drill a 3mm hole into the gas injector, then tap it. Now hook up a 3 bar can of trifluorazine carbonate and crank the power output to about 82%. Open the valve, fire, and laugh maniacally. It will scare the living shit out of anyone within three clicks and can put holes in armoured hullplates.

That shit's my speeder gun. I would recommend only using it when you must if you take my advice. The reason the barrels shorter is to reduce the power output. I blew up the first one I made after three shots because of that. It was putting holes in 3m of solid rock though.
