Re: Tie fighters and tie bombers.

Tie Fighters wouldn't be able to function on Hoth, so it's completely incorrect. Even the Rebels, who had been located there for many months, had not yet adapted their technology to the world. The only tech that they ever adapted was the specially built snowspeeder, only so because it ran on repulsorlifts, as opposed to ion engines and such. Non-speeders could never work, even if properly adapted. This is the reason why Snowspeeders can't do rolls and flips. They'd slam right into the ground.

Re: Tie fighters and tie bombers.

That's not true. The Rebellion had several X-wing & Y-wing squadrons stationed at Echo base. We see the X-wings prepping for take off during the evacuation at the Battle of Hoth.

Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.

Good gameplay is more important than strict adherence to the movie lore, to be honest.

Just like there is balance in the force, a balance must be found between lore and gameplay big_smile
