The Rebels didn't destroy DS2
What actually happened, was the superlaser wasn't tested properly. It was used in rapid succession too many times, and overheated, causing the space station to explode. I read this somewhere
share?
shareI are joking
Seriously, though. think about it. "I need more men". "we shall double our efforts". "I assure you this space station will be operational. even if not fully protected". "you have a backup plan in case the force field fails?". "er....yes". "what is it". "it'll be covered in the project meeting on Thursday". "good. goooood".
"yeah - source that component from that other guy, he offers quicker delivery"
"no, that insulation panel only needs 4 screws not 6, it'll be fine"
"what? no one could fly through that service duct, nah. leave it as it is"
