[QUOTE="aramis erak, post: 9380449, member: 6779310"] The OT (E IV-VI) has lots of gaps, especially since it makes it clear there's been a bunch go on in between... The IV-V gap is long enough for the Alliance to have built the Hoth base, staffed it, Han and Leia to have had some adventures on Ord Mantell... and have been making a difference ... enough to be actively pursued. Another gap, albeit much shorter, hides in ep IV... Where are the fighter squadrons from the Death Star? Its fighters should have reached Yavin IV well before... That gap got filled in one campaign by the PCs leading a massive furball while the Death Star comes inbound... The V-VI gap, there's been long enough for Luke, Leia, and Lando to establish firmly that Boba Fett sold Han to Jabba. And to arrange the subterfuges. And for Luke to have done a lot of upping his abilities with the Force. We also are told in the opening crawl that some time has passed. VI does appear to have some notable gap time inside. not a lot - between Luke heading to Yoda; Leia, Han and Lando to meet back up with the fleet... All those interludes, plus the actual war going on, leaves huge gaps to fill without being the ones saving the universe. And plenty of other threats that could combine with The Emperor/New Order that PCs can take down. Like Darth Maul - he survived being chopped in half... [/QUOTE]
