User blog comment:DMR4LIFE/Chat Empire in Battle/@comment-23782751-20140517141252

Well, I was shooting for something like a movie. After all, could this crappy little fan-fiction become something big? In any case, my thoughts on this is simple. The good guys are outnumbered and outgunned, but they have really high quality stuff; for example, the TIE fighters vs X-wings. TIE fighters are weak and pathetic, but the Empire from Star Wars seems to always end up using them, while the Rebellion always uses the much faster and much more powerful X-wings. The Empire can't seem to break through the X-wings with their hoards of the cheap TIE's, so they end up eventually making another cheap variant, known as the TIE interceptor. By the end of the war, the interceptor makes up 20% of the Imperial fighters all around the galaxy, in order to counter the X-wings and the new A-wings.

My point is, the Chat doesn't realize how much the Resistance has yet. They underestimate what they need to win the war, and we have a brief advantage with their ignorance.
