Anyone seen: Solo, the new Star Wars cash cow wanna-be

[Amarok]

The First Order destroys a solar system and destroys the Republic fleet?

That's plot hole how ?

Maybe the command centres and much of the structure, but the majority of the galaxy wide Republic's fleet?

Most of their fleet was centered near their core worlds . Remember the new republic was anti military thus probably didn't have a galactic spanning fleet like the empire .

And starkiller base. Is it capable of hyperspace travel or is it designed to be used only a couple of times in a binary star system?

That's not a plot hole that's simply an unknown . But either makes sense . If the weapons sole purpose was to wipe out the heavily protected Republic core worlds then be reproposed like battering ram . Or maybe it does have hyperdrive and could be reused .  

Later novels and books may have answered those questions, but I haven't read them.

The first question yup. The New Republic was anti military thus kept it's fleets near the core worlds as not to give the impression The New Republic was trying to become the Empire . That's the whole reason Leia formed the resistance as she thought this was a bad idea .

He might not have absolutely needed to know it, but some assurance would have prevented a mutiny, and the need to go on the side mission. Fewer people would have died, at the very least. She could have at least said "I have a plan. Don't worry. It's going to be fine". Even when the mutiny is happening, and she's being held at gunpoint, she says jack all about the real plan.

No he didn't. And he should have trusted her .She did not owe him any explanation. It was Poe's own mistrust and impatience  that lead to that .

The Star Trek universe is a much better place to live in.


I can go live in a cave here if I need to. Why go far far away to live like a mole?

I don't know the Star Trek universe can be pretty scary . The Borg , Mist Vampires, All powerful super entities who constantly seem to wanna mess with us.
