Fascism was a political philosophy based on militant totalitarianism.[2] The Galactic Empire and its successor state, the First Order,[3] were both considered fascist governments.[1][4] The Bith artist Janyor referred to the Galactic Empire as fascist, expressing his disgust with the propaganda piece Imperius Unitada ober Totallex's use of fascist imagery.[2] Similarly, during the Battle of Hoth, Rebel[4] Communications Officer[5] Toryn Farr had a moment where she questioned why she was the one
FFG was making a lot of great SW tabletop stuff during the 2010s. I liked the X-Wing dogfight game quite a bit. Never had an RPG group during those years, but that sounds like a dope one!

That’s more on the Marvel side of Disney, right? Maybe I’m too whenever Saw Gererra comes on the screen to realize you’re supposed to think he’s “too extreme” or whatever
Oh that’s not even getting into Saw! Check out his fallen order portrayal for that “too extreme doesnt care about anything” stuff. I meant these clowns https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Nihil
The RPG system is great though, possibly my favorite all around - fun mechanics, depth for people who want to get into it, and super accessible for new players.
I’m a fake fan and never got into the High Republic stuff lol. Can you at least headcannon it as “these dorks are being viewed through the lens of the radical centrist Jedi order”?
Andor is the best Star Wars. No other sw has had a character say “everyone is a liberal except me”
best star was convo
Luthen: Think of it. Think of Spellhaus in flames. Neither of you could do it on your own, but together-
Saw: Kreegyr’s a Separatist. Maya Pei’s a Neo-Republican. The Ghorman Front. The Partisan Alliance? Sectorists! Human cultists! Galaxy partitionists! They’re lost, all of them lost! Lost. What are you Luthen? I’ve never really known. What are you?
Luthen: I’m a coward. I’m a man who’s terrified the Empire’s power will grow beyond the point where we can do anything to stop it. I’m the one who says, “We’ll die with nothing if we don’t put aside our petty differences.”
Saw: Petty? I am the only one with clarity of purpose.

I nearly forgot about his appearance in Fallen Order lol.

His fallen order portrayal, his clone wars portrayal, his rogue one portrayal…
He’s cool in…Andor? At least not portrayed as a cartoonish “madman”

god that show added a richness to Star Wars that i really didn’t think was possible
maybe we’ll have a genre in the distant FALGC future that’s just like “treats of the past, but really well written and performed”
Andor is the best Star Wars thing ever put to screen
