Trade Federation

They'd fight for Palpatine if they were greedy cowards..That's why they were in cahoots with him in the first place.

I just think they were scared of Palpatine. And they didn't really fight for him, they used droids. The TFN report says that they are pilots. That means they actually fight.

I think it's safe to assume that if you're in control of the force that is fighting that you can be considered to be fighting..As for the pilots...There's a good chance that they fight...but they might smugglers or something.

On a big cruiser is anyone considered a pilot?...I'm talking about the controls officers on the bridge...just wondering.

I dont think so, on a cruise there would be a hell of a lot of job functions.

Pilot
Engineer
Navigatopr
Captain
Weapons Control
Doctor
Etc,etc

When they said pilots I thought Tie Fighter style pilots. Has anyone seen the pictures on TFN of new ships. They are smaller versions of Star Destroyers but for only one pilot.

I only saw that one triangle shaped one. Is there more?

I think there were two of them or maybe it was the same ship from a different angle. Who's ship do you think they could be? Trade Federation fighters or Jedi ships? I say TF.

I don't know but I'd guess that they're not Jedi..they are to geometric and don't have any of the design qualities of what we've seen of the jedi. It seems like GL likes to relect the diffent societie's design motif in their ships...

I think the Jedi will have X-Wing style ships and the clones Tie Fighters although they will still have to look different.

Maybe something like a X-wing but with a linear quality a bit like a Naboo fighter. I think the Jedi might have something with a kind of fluid feel to it.
