And of course, KOTOR's ideas were based on the claim of the age of the old republic and the many generations of Jedi that served it. KOTOR I can take or leave, it's not part of the (new) canon, of course, but it makes me wonder how the Jedi Order or the republic really looked 200 or 500 or 1,000 years ago.I could explain away the Death Star with not being a major technological, but more a major logistical advancement - only the Empire had the resources and the will to build a planet-destroying moon-sized starbase (and also do it in a manner that kept it out of the public's spotlight for a long time.) But things like cloaked transports or hyperspace tracking seem a bit different.</blockquote>
