Found an interesting blog post today that posits that the inherent structure of the Empire in the Star Wars universe led to intense inter-service rivalries that likely strongly facilitated the eventual Rebel victory. I found it an interesting read and thought some of you might find some of the ideas presented to be useful and/or inspiring in a Traveller setting. The post-article comments are also worth reading.
