True, but Tarkin spamming local space with TIEs would have deepened the odds.

Neph, your reputation for getting defensive over the things you like is very well known. By your own admission, you were aggressive here and your behavior today with Ant was most distressing.Just make this your avatar and be done with it. Let's agree to disagree, ok? {Nice legs, btw.}
It's really frustrating talking to you these days. I always feel like I have to tip toe or hold back when talking to you because the slightest bit of "aggression" sets you off (seriously, I said you were whining thats mild as hell. learn to have thicker skin asswad) and screaming about how mad I am. Am I the only one who remembers that we used to tease and insult each other constantly? Being an ******* to each other is supposed to be part of being friends. You call each other dicks because they know you don't mean it. Arguing with Ant today was fun and I meant nothing by it and there are no hard feelings. You know, I actually rewrote my oh so aggressive sentences a few posts back because I knew you'd be so sensitive about it and you were anyway. I hate having to do that man, it really sucks.

Why? They are Jedi that are openly against the Empire. Their mere existence is sowing discord. And they have won a rather major victory against one of the Empire's highest officials and already defeated one of the Inquisitors.They need to be crushed immediately.
Yeah but if they need to be crushed "immediately" then the plot demands Vader's going to fail to do that. They should send better or more Inquisitors for now IMO.
But it was nice seeing Vader kicking some space ass in his Tie. We've never really seen the amazing pilot Vader is. It should be a case of when he shows up (even in a space battle) the rebels have to retreat. And it looks as if that's what they're doing.

Sure we have, he dang near solo'd both Red and Gold Squadrons on the DS attack. Although yeah, can't wait to see Vader wreck shop in both space and land.

Rebels piqued my interest early on because it was essentially marketed as Firefly in the Star Wars universe. A motley crew of misfits and nobodies taking on the monolithic Empire in their own way.
There were some similarities but with the overall plot of the series it was never really like Firefly. Because this series (just from the name) was always going to lead to bigger things.

Yeah but then Solo in the Falcon came and took care of him plus 2 other Tie's.
He was obviously shown as being good, but not to the extent he should be shown. This looks like it will do just that.
As I said in another thread, I really like Rebels, but I believe the storyline is moving too quickly. I still have high hopes for it and am excited about the next season.
That goes back to the larger complaint. The crew of the Ghost has been entirely too meddlesome for the Empire proper. I'm fine with their hijinks obstructing Imperial operations on Lothal, but the notion that their actions are so potent as to now draw the attention of Vader, Tarkin, and now Palpatine himself {since he was the one who sent Vader}? It's absurd.
👆
So some massive spoilers pertaining to the Season 2 premiere:
Spoiler:
Vader apparently toys with Kanan and Ezra. And, while the manage to escape, it seems to have been a trap to find the Rebel fleet (again). Vader then pretty much single handily takes on the Rebels fleet managing to destroy some fighters and the Command ship. SDs then drop in but the Rebels manage to flee.And then Ahsoka learns who Vader is. While Vader sends some more Inquisitors after the Rebels
All in all, sounds awesome.
👆
A more detailed synopsis can be found here.
Spoiler:
****ing awesome that Ahsoka and Vader both find out who each other are by sensing each other's Force signatures. And I hope Ahsoka utterly annihilates the Inquisitors sent after them, I want my baby to get some new, sexy feats!ALSO REALLY SAD TUA DIED BECAUSE I REALLY LIKED HER.
And, uh, Ezra and Kanan are capable of Force pushing Darth Vader? Lame. At least he gets another potentially great Force feat.
