Let's get a blaster thread going. No, not a "blaster control" RP thread, but a serious discussion about if these were real weapon designs. Let's start off with the DL-44. Where would the magazine/gas container go? And while the right-set scope makes for a better draw, it also makes using the damn scope impractical. I always just assumed it had some lock-to-side function kind of like a high tech magnifier that locked to either the top or left when unholstered.

Only if it's logical explanations of the vehicles/weapons/armor etc.

That looks very close to the final form, but I do agree that the OG McQuarrie shit has a tack of it's own. I particularly like the Snowspeeder concepts.

The Dorling Kindersley exploded-diagram books are great for this sort of thing OP. It might be rubbish, but it's convincing rubbish.

search "Star Wars cross sections" and you'll turn up a bunch. DK do cross-section books for all sorts of topics from medieval castles to cruise liners, but their Star Wars stuff is great too, really creates a sense of a living world and not just props. Some of the best kids' stuff there was, really fired the imagination.

Jar Jar Binns, that's why.
Though some of the battle scenes were pretty good in my opinion. Plus the whole Order 66 part.

I adore the book these cross-section pictures are from. They are so god damn awesome. I just love them.
The "Essential Guide" series is another great book series that does something similar only it doesn't just look at ships and tech.

This. The Battle of Coruscant had so much potential but the real battle scene was only a minute.

It's called Star WARS for a reason.
Lots of big battles in space.
Also a lot of the props used in the original trilogy are WWI era and WWII era weapons mocked up to look more like they belong in a Sci-fi setting.

Plus, Star Wars is just generally awesome.

why would decks manned entirely by droids even have air to blow them out when the hull is breached?

What if organics came on board? Ever thought that the ship might also be used by non-droids?

A lot of those side mounted scopes had an off set reticle to compensate for their location.

Would there be any sense in having a magazine filled with small one use power cells in a blaster, as opposed to one large power cell?

If your single power cell dies you have no weapon, if one of your multitude dies no big deal. Maybe a tiny amount of power from each cell can be used to drive a tiny motor to cycle the next...

Dont paint over history. Han shot first.
>>
>>27800060
Earlier drafts say Greedo shot first
You can't deny that

But I still stand, Han should have shot first, Greedo shooting and missing at point blank doesn't make sense in the star wars
