Today is the fourth anniversary of the surgery I needed for colon cancer. I have a year and a few months left of surveillance before I can throw myself a party, but so far, so good.
#FuckCancer but also our medical system, which wanted to diagnose me with depression 🙄 rather than listen to what was going on before I got to Stage IIIc. I am lucky, because people a decade younger have died of this.
Stay on your doctors for better care, stay on your politicians for better #publichealth

The empire just has big ships, but all of their military operations are based on WWII standards.
Oh and the federation can see where they're going when in warp.

Then in Star Wars: TIE Fighter, they became rather vulnerable to heavy rockets and space bombs, as if they had no point defense.
It might be hard to judge a straight up engagement, but it's likely the fighters are going to do all the work.
