Luke joined the Dark Side, effectively ending the war.  2. The Empirical Think-Tank was working on a biological weapon that, when released onto a planet, would consume all living entities.  Unfortunately, it consumed/destroyed some Dark Jedi and became self-aware.  (essentially, they had created the Zerg from Blizzard's Starcraft)  With canon out the window at that point, the heroes were forced to ally with the Empire to destroy this much deadlier enemy.  Players loved it.</blockquote>
