Ten trillion credits? whistles Remind me again what sort of budget we were working with here?
checks Ah, ok, so we brought in a windfall equivalent to almost five time our trimester income. Noice.

I think those credits may have also been a sizable chunk (or perhaps even the entirety) of Palpy's Shadow Hand budget. And considering that this was also where Palpy hid all his dangerous bioweapons and our success at the Maw Installation, I think our dear former Emperor is going to have to find a way to wage war without dangerous superweapons to back him up*.

*Let him commit horrific acts of genocide and mass-murder
 
He still has the Galaxy Gun and World Devastators on Byss. To be fair, the World Devastators are more useful for us since they are the non-Force sensitives' version of the Star Forge and Sun Razer

True, but he's also lost the facility that invented them along with the blueprints and all of the scientists. The World Devastators that Sheev has are officially the only ones he can have and the loss of just one will may be permanent for him.

But they can make more of themselves; which is the most dangerous part

remember their manned by sentient AI, very dangerous and likely derived from the great heap, or others like it (originally from the Vong galaxy)

Holy shit, why did Palpy bother with the the Death Star when he could've just mass-produced World Devastators? They honestly sound a lot more effective than the Death Stars ever were.
I guess they just weren't ready in time. Palpatine wanted all resistance squashed as soon as could and the Death Star was already being built and would be finished first, so...

At least that's my in-Universe justification. Out of Universe, the Writers of Legends just threw in more cool Super Weapons, with how much sense they made within the larger context of the SW-Universe being an Afterthought.

Basically the deathstar was a long term project and this was a happy accident.

the final version likely was only completed a few years after the battle of endor; with the first prototype disappearing just before then.

itd be nasty in its present form as a manufacturing facility. Stripping matter to rework it.

however it likely lacks the advanced sentient droid brain, or the self replicating/growing feature, for now…
Though regarding further development, all of the scientists were likely taken to byss as soon as the prototype disappeared

And I'm pretty sure Palpatine has ZERO qualms about devastating a few more Planets then originally planned to create more of them.

He's the kind of Guy who'd burn down the Galaxy without hesitation as long as he gets to rule over the Ashes afterwards.
Yeah, the most central element of Palpatine's character is murderous hatred for anyone and anything not under his control.
Subjugation or destruction. That's his plan for everything.

Concentration of power.
Remember how Stalin pretty much decimated the Red Army's command structure and sent millions to the gulags out of sheer, unrelenting paranoia? How Hitler crippled his own forces by putting his generals in competition with each other so they couldn't threaten him?
Palpatine's no less paranoid nor any less of a control freak. The reason he wanted the Death Star so much was that it was one ship that could beat any enemy fleet. So he could, if he wanted, relocated his imperial throne to the Death Star and rule from there, unchallenged.
(And to be fair to the son of a bitch, between Zaarin from TIE Fighter and whatshisname from Allegiance, it's not like the Empire's command structure was lacking in ambitious potentates entirely happy to turn on Palpy if they believed they could become more powerful that way.)
 
....huh. I just remembered that someone placed a 10-trillion bounty on Thrawn's head. And now Thrawn just heisted 10 trillion credits from Palpatine's stashes. Coincidence? I think NOT! :D
 
I really hope we're not spending all those credits to get rid of the bounty. That amount of credits can easily jumpstart our economy and then some, so I'd prefer that we invest them in that direction rather than immediately use it to get rid of the bounty which is now worthless with all those credits now directly in our hands.

what are you talking about Tireless was saying he thought palps was the one to put the bounty on our head not to use the money we just got to end the bounty.

I'm aware of that, I was just saying that it would be a better idea to invest those credits into our economy instead of just using them to get rid of the bounty.
 
I don't think anyone has said anything about paying off the bounty.

If anything we'll find out who made the bounty and take them out.
 
So with the 10 trillion credits. Is that enough to pay off our debt?

The first page says we are at -4525 billion credits which is -4.525 trillion if I'm not mistaken.

What does that do for us and our economy? It seems like a huge deal.
 
I've never heard of a Interceptor having 6 laser cannons, a ordnance cannon, or mounts for shields and hyperdrive.

If that's all true then well and good but thats news to me.
Those are all literally the upgrades that it can get. Except the 6 laser cannons which are standard. It has the original 2 on the cockpit and the wings each have 1 as well. As for the rest they are all meant to be added if they wanted. The Emperor literally had them as the standard for his royal guards.

...Are you confusing the Interceptor with another craft?
The TIE Interceptor has four laser cannons, no shields, no hyperdrive. It's essentially an upgrade over the TIE Figther (more guns, faster, a bit tougher), but not to the same extent as the TIE Advanced/Avenger or the TIE Defender.
Look it up again like I said above they are all upgrades for the thing. The interceptor has the ability to install all of that. And no they have 6 cannons or 4 blaster cannons and 2 laser cannons.
 
I really think you're talking about the Defender. It has all the things you mentioned.

Edit: Just checked wookipedia. Interceptor has no shields or hyperdrive and 4 laser cannons.

I wonder if a Spaarti cylinder clone could fool the guy who put out the ten trillion bounty if Thrawn stages it to get the bounty and misdirect enemies?
