      Most beings can't walk right up to a Hutt, cut down their bodyguards, and survive long enough to hunt them down. Maul was uniquely capable of quickly quashing the conflict. Plus Jabba probably let him hunt down and kill most of the Hutt family heads so he could muscle in and rule Hutt Space pretty much unopposed.

      @ThePalaeontologist 3 роки тому +9

      Galactic Empire. If Maul subdued not only the Hutts but all the big crimelords e.g. Pykes and Black Sun, I doubt Palpatine would fail to do the same. He'd vaporise the Hutts before letting them stop the Empire. The Hutts are strong but the Galactic Empire is the Galactic Empire. Palpatine would just send Vader to go after the Hutt leaders and step in if he failed to kill them all.
      Even if they 'went to ground' and tried to fight a guerrilla war, rebel style, the Hutt Cartels wouldn't be able to keep control over most of their major citadels and strongholds. It'd be a bloody battle for Imperial forces as the Stormtrooper Corps would be forced into repeated urban warfare and ambushes, with the fights not always going their way. But once the Imperials bring in their real firepower it's all over. Walkers, heavy artillery units, TIE Fighters, repulsorlift tanks, troop transports, juggernauts, Star Destroyers, cruisers, frigates etc.
      They are too numerous. The Empire could burp a hundred million troopers in the the general direction of the Hutts and still have plenty more where they came from. The reality is that it will probably degenerate into a protracted guerrilla war with several Hutts disappearing and being extremely hard to find, operating from hidden bases, through many thousands of agents and hired thugs, but the thing is, Palpatine would probably find them eventually.
      He'd first send the Inquisitors and Imperial Commandos after them and if they weren't enough to decisively end the problem, copious Stormtrooper deployments and Imperial blockades would finish the job. But just as likely Palpatine and Vader could just go on a Hutt Hunt and kill them one by one. Imperial Intelligence and the machinations of the Sith Lords themselves - unbeknownst to most Imperials, being the real leadership of the Empire - would between them trap the Hutts in separate pockets around the galaxy. Nar Shadda and Nal Hutta wouldn't last long as the Empire would obviously deploy massive forces against them.
      There could even be a situation where Hutts convene on either of those worlds to plan their next move and Vader shows up with the 501st while the Imperial Navy surround the planet. Hutt naval forces cannot stand up to the Imperial Navy and trade equal blows because the Imperial Navy is far larger and stronger. The Hutts will have some wins in space but still. Imperial orbital and aerial superiority is almost a given. I can imagine many TIE fighters being lost fighting skilled mercenaries and bounty hunters, but the problem for the Hutts is that the Empire has so many - and these Imperials are more well-trained than rebel propaganda implies - that they can't really stop them long-term.
      If the war bogged down into a long, attrition based conflict, what would the goals of either side be? At what point does the Empire concede defeat or at what point do the Hutts give in? The Galactic Empire under Palpatine _will not_ be surrendering under any circumstances to the Hutt Cartel. Palpatine would never tolerate that and let's just remember how powerful the Empire is.
      Obviously the rebels started off small, but they won against the Empire, in spite of humble beginnings. Yet popular public support for the Hutts? No, that won't happen. If anything it'd split opinion beyond the borders of the Empire and Palpatine might just bribe neighbours and vassals of the Hutts to rebel themselves.
      Palpatine tolerated the Hutts because they were a necessary convenience while he was consolidating power during the Imperial Expansion Era. He didn't necessarily have any reason to get into a fight with them when he pragmatically could deal with that bridge when he came to it, in theory. In the case of Vader, of course he had no love for the Hutts. However, the Hutts would grow to fear Vader in a war scenario - Palpatine would use Vader as a weapon to destroy the Hutts.
      The idea of Palpatine himself pulling a Maul moment and going in solo after the Hutts for a bit of sport, is also interesting. Palpatine pragmatically realised the value in keeping an area of space in the vast Outer Rim Territories, under Hutt Cartel control, while the Empire clearly held sway. Just look at the Imperial forces and how they operate on Tatooine, Jabba the Hutt's own haunt. The fact here is that Jabba would not have his agents/thugs fire on the Imperial Stormtroopers. Jabba knew better.
      I remember hearing about and seeing stuff on UA-cam about a comic book series for Darth Vader, and in this, he basically straight up walked into Jabba's Palace, force choked Jabba and threatened him with a lightsaber. Vader didn't give the slightest fuck about the Hutts.
      Again, if the rag-tag and somewhat spent Maul managed to not only smash the rival criminal groups but to hammer them under the banner of Crimson Dawn, then I think Palpatine and Vader would obliterate the Hutts.
      Imperial losses will be high but ironically, the longer the war continues, the more hostile towards Hutts the Galactic Imperial citizenry/subjects shall become. Palpatine wouldn't need to say much to convince the Empire of how bad the Hutts were and he'd gain a lot of support in the process of destroying the Hutts.
      Galactic Empire shall crush them. 25,000 ISDs and a smallish number of Star Dreadnoughts (dozens perhaps) would make the entire prospect of facing the Imperial Navy in it's proper force, a really bad idea for the Hutts. Hit and run, guerrilla tactics and urban warfare on dozens of worlds, would make it half viable for the Hutts to win some kind of concessions, but most likely Palpatine would have won anyway.
      Especially if the DSI/DSII (Death Stars) are completed. Palpatine would destroy them. He'd end up victorious eventually. If Maul and the Death Watch can, Sidious, Vader and the Imperial military, should be able to win out. I'd imagine Palpatine would love to kill Hutts with a lightsaber or force lightning. Vader would find and kill a lot of them, especially if the Inquisitors failed to deal with the problem.
      Clone Commando losses might also be high, but they will have all been aware they were hitting back harder.
      Even if the war descends into the same old mess of a situation it has been for so long, Palpatine shall still win. It'd be very destructive though. Millions could die on all sides.

      @@danielpichardo7749 One thing you HAVE to understand about the Imperium of Man is that it is not a grandiose empire of the traditional sense. Rather, it is a collection of independent systems unified under one banner and religion, with each systems pretty much left to govern themselves however they see fit.
      The reason for this form of governance? The warp. It is an extremely temperamental form of interstellar travel and communication. For the most part, ships can reasonably reach their destinations on a reliable timetable....plus minus a couple of weeks or months. But sometimes you can turn up at your destination *before* you departed from your point of origin. And this is in addition to the fact that all laws of physics and time can be thrown out the window, literally. 1 week in the warp can range from anywhere between 1 week in real space, 1 minute in real space, or even 1 century.
      So yeah, good luck trying to keep a standardized economy and trade and regular communication under those circumstances, much less a unified government. The administratum might seem to be a bunch of incompetent cocks, but they're doing the best they can to keep the remains of humanity afloat in a universe where literally everything else can kill you in the most gruesome way imaginable in less than a blink of an eye. Maybe even less.
      Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that the warp is also where the Chaos gods set up shop as well didn't I?

    A lot of contention here about the clear parallels between WH 40k and Star Wars. However, there are some pretty significant differences. The Empire of Mankind became the way it is due to very real and very direct threat posed by the Chaos Gods, and the extreme religious zealotry of the Empire of Man was just a result of being constantly on guard to that extremely real threat. The Emperor of Mankind literally keeps humanity from being completely overrun and deavoured by rampaging mobs of demons. And if that wasn't bad enough, you also had Necrons, Tyranids, and Orks, all of which were deadly hostile to humanity and beyond reasoning with.
    The Republic didn't have anything remotely resembling that level of threat. The Republic simply got co-opted by a cult. They weren't under serious threat by hostile aliens, their god was not protecting them from being devoured by actual demonic entities, they just wanted a pretext to steal shit from wealthy planets and kill aliens. That's all.
    While the concept of religious zealotry being a vehicle behind horrifying actions is similar in both Star Wars and Warhammer 40k, at least you can have a small amount of begrudging empathy for Empire of Man because of how completely dire and dangerous the situation it was in. At least the Empire of Man had real reasons for being the way it is, Pius Dea and the Republic just decided to be assholes and used religion as means to justify it actions.

    I personally never liked Star Wars, but I don't live under a rock and I knew the fan base got pretty hardcore in their fictional history time-line, and talked about it as if it were real.
    Then the Avenger movies started coming out (which i had no idea they were all connecting until just before Infinity War was coming out) but the amount of people piecing that time-line in a non-fictional way was completely unexpected to me. Maybe it was just more relevant for being in my generation, idk. But I think there was more "Marvel Historians" than "SW Historians" at least from my POV. 🤷‍♂️ Which I think is absolutely awesome for both fan bases.
    And frankly, I'm jealous. I'm the biggest fan of the Tremors movies that you'd ever meet. But there is nothing in our community that puts the history together like either of the other franchises. Which REALLY sucks because there's no one i can absolutely nerd our with and talk about the movies. Like 99% of the time if I ask someone if they've seen Tremors the conversation usually goes like this..
    "Have you seen Tremors?"
    "...tremors?"
    "Yeah. They just released their 7th movie last year...it had a short lived TV series and almost had a 2nd one green lit...Burt Gummer is the main guy...he has more guns in his basement than Texas has period...."
    "....umm...I don't think I have.."
    "...for fuck sakes. The big underground worms that eat people."
    "OH YEAH, I LOVED THAT MOVIE. My favorite was the one with the flying things that could fart fire or something. I like how the Tremor could come out of the ground. That was cool. Wait, they have 7 movies?? I had no idea they did."
    "NO. They're not called a Tremor. They are called Graboids. Tremors shake the ground and thats what the creature can do when its close by. Again NO. They do not fart fire. They are named Ass Blaster and they have 2 chambers in the rear end of their bodies which produce 2 different chemicals that when mixed have a violent reaction that causes enough thrust it allows them to leave the ground and then glide through the air. They don't fly, only glide. But before they turn into an Ass Blaster, the graboid will give rise to 3 new creatures called Shriekers. Which eat their way out of the Graboid when they have matured. Later on, they will shed their skin and then become the larger and final stage in their life. The Ass Blaster."
    "Oooh ok. I didn't know that part."
    At this point I usually stab the person with a knife out of frustration and walk away.

    The Hutts are sinister. I was nine when ROJ came out. After I saw that I slept under my bed for days (it was the 80’s, the muppets were risqué’ back then)...ok, it was last week that I saw it, I’m still under my bed and over 40:) I can imagine most of the galaxy felt the same way...except for smugglers and bounty hunters maybe.
