[QUOTE="Razjah, post: 6518731, member: 98806"] Soldiers often fight for their buddies next to them, not for their country. Sure the country/cause is being served; but when bullet (lasers) fly, you lay down covering fire or advance so that your buddies live. Soldiers during shield walls covered the guy next to them also. It was important to stay together so that everyone stayed safe. Getting friends/injured companions aboard transports before the Imperial forces advance enough to take the base. Stalling the Empire's advance to get everyone evacuated. Finding a downed pilot in the battle because the rebels won't leave a man behind. How about the emotional impact of losing home, again. The rebels thought they had finally found a place to defend for a time, but once again they are being hunted and driven into space. Now with one of their most defended strongholds being overrun, will the PCs stay in the face of such defeat? Maybe the Imperial forces capture some key members of the rebellion and the PCs are tasked with their escape. This could even culminate with boarding Vader's ship and breaking out with the captured members of the rebellion- with the ever present danger of Vader returning to the ship or even already having returned. Stormtroopers are bad enough, rounding a corner with wounded companions to face Vader is almost certainly their death. [/QUOTE]
