Legends pointed out that a lot more of Imperial Remnant troopers were battle hardened veterans that survived what others did not, and decided to remain loyal even after evidence was presented to them of their faction’s evil. It would make sense that they would be a step above the average stormies who had rushed training, esp since they had to be the “little guys”, now. It would also make sense that they would be either less innocent or more brainwashed.

Honestly this episode just strengthens the idea that we really need to see either more of the empire's good side or a series dedicated to a stormtrooper and Imperial officer. Even in the books you have examples of the empire being good in certain sectors of the Galaxy but bad in other ones. the empire was not completely evil and a lot of the people who served under it we're not evil either. There were plenty who believe they were actually doing the right thing. I think the problem with people thinking the empire's completely evil is just a fact that we only get to see the good side of the imperials from books or comic books. Let's be honest the majority of all people never read the books or the comics. Everybody just prefers watching a movie or a show and that's what the Empire honestly needs, to show the good and the bad.

I remember the backstory of Scar Squadron, they were elite commandos who used experimental armor and weapons, the leader even using a lightsaber. They lived on a war-torn world, and joined the Imperial Military to end the fighting and suffering, and to stop the rebellion from destroying more communities in their war against the empire. And they're technically canon too, because in the Last Jedi visual guides, it says that the Crait base was abandoned by the rebellion because of Scar Squadron.

THIS is what the First Order and the Final Order lacked. A human element. The First Order's whole selling point is, "The guys who got kicked out of the Nazis for being too Fucked up." They are evil to the point of parody. The Empire on the other hand is still evil, but it's done in a way that it feels like a kind of faction that normal and even good people can still join with the belief that a lot of their system's failings are either exaggerated by dissidents or just a necessary evil. And, that's not even entirely untrue. It really depended where you grew up under the Empire. Thrawn in Legends points out how a lot, if not most Imperial worlds had never even seen a Stormtrooper or TIE Fighter and, as long as they payed their taxes and stayed loyal, lived a pretty quiet life and weren't harassed by slavers or pirates. Hell, Admiral Piett, Darth Vader's fleet commander, free a lot of Out Rim systems from several petty pirate and slaver factions that treated their people a LOT worse than the Empire did. I'm glad they included this little bit in the episode. When people ask to play as an Imperial in a Star Wars game, they aren't asking to have the Empire turned into this benevolent faction, they just want to see a story told of men and women who believe they are doing a good thing, and maybe even ARE doing good, under an, at best, morally questionable regime. I mean, it's not impossible. The Republic was a corrupt bureaucratic mess that had a literally slave army and we rooted for them for several seasons of the clone wars. I just find it hard to get that same vibe with the First Order. There's no loyalty. No comradery. Anyways, Long Live The Empire.

I always liked the empire, and the best way to explain myself is precisely that scene with the troopers helping their comrades and saluting, with high morale. The average stormtrooper was as human as the average rebel. Some joined to serve the empire out of patriotism, others to know the Galaxy, and others to have a better life and get out of some backwater planet in which their only choice was being a poor farmer or a criminal, the empire offered them a higher purpose. I also remember watching a video about The Lore master that said that stormtroopers had pretty good salaries and pensions, even in case of the death of the trooper if he had a family, the family would get his pension. Like it was said in the video, the main problem was the Power hunger Moffs and officers who aside from being out of touch with their own troops were pretty incompetent and will do whatever was in their hands to get more power. That and well, Palpatine. Honestly with all the series that were announced, it really pains me that they didn’t do one about Stormtroopers and the imperial perspective of things, like they’re doing a series about Cassian Andor like really? The stormies get no love 😔

The fact Mayfield kills that officer goes to show that even though the empire had some ordinary people in it, they were deceived by what the empire truly was because of its powerful propaganda machine. The simmering anger of hearing that officer go on and on about how countless loyal imperials who Mayfield might’ve even considered friends were deemed acceptable losses felt like Dr King from Django just before he killed Calvin Candie.

And they watched the Empire blow up a planet and did nothing.

It frustrates me how in the same episode they chose to humanize the troops of the empire, Miggs, the one who was talking about the loss of his brothers in arms, decided to kill every last trooper in that base at the end when he blew it up. He didn't stop to consider that maybe those troops were just like him for even a second? Maybe im wrong and they deserved it, but it certainly didn't feel that way. I thought the point of that scene where the troops were portrayed much the same as the rebels in the OT was to make the characters feel some amount of remorse for mindlessly slaughtering these men in the past and inevitably in the future, but instead they went out of their way to kill all of them. If you disagree lmk why but it bothered me personally

There are three reasons that people will follow the Galactic Empire, one is that the Empire was a very powerful government that brought stability to several planets, two the Imperial propaganda machine was extremely effective in portraying the Galactic Empire as a positive force in the Galaxy, and the final reason is that the Galactic Empire was a vast organization that there would be several factions that will have similar ideologies and after the fall of the Galactic Empire they stayed loyal because of their ideology. Though several people will probably become demoralized after the destruction of the second Death Star and Operation Cinder will break the spirit of even the most loyal imperial soldiers.

You forgot something else: like our real-world militaries, not every Imperial trooper would be engaging in combat. You'd have engineers, technicians, mechanics, scientists, doctors, analysts, etc. The Imperial army/navy would have been a career path for many people, _especially_ those in the outer rim who didn't have many other options for a decent life. You think all those people on the second Death Star were soldiers? No way. The thing was still under construction, it would have been filled with non-combatants.

Let's not forget the deeper implications of that scene with the TIE Fighter air support. Din and Mayfeld were transporting highly unstable and explosive fuel to the base, yet those fighters opened fire to "support" them against the pirate raiders. This could have easily ended in that transport being destroyed, and the Empire would have written it off as a necessary loss; they'd rather sacrifice a fuel tanker and the drivers in it than let pirates get their hands on it. And they made sure to use that ordinance at the very last measurable distance from the base so as to not compromise the foundation. That wasn't heroism; it was a last resort method of protecting resources or destroying it to prevent enemy interception.

In a galaxy were your government has been overthrown and what replaced it can't even stop a simple piracy attack because they demilitarized. It's not far fetched that a number of people would want the empire to stay, sometimes the choice being between kidnapped by slavers, extorted by pirates, or allowing the empire to set up shop on your planet.

What about Grand Admiral Thrawn's view of the Empire -- that it was simply a government, and imposed order. That, and he was likely hoping to use the Empire as a bulwark for Csilla against the Yuuzan Vong. He probably considered it the best out of a slew of bad options. After all, Csilla was never part of any Galactic Republic for a reason, and that's not just because of distance.
