Actually Racial purity in the Waffen SS is a myth, an entire SS division was made up of Hollanders.

-That- I did not know. Do you have a link/know of a good book with good info?
Myth or not, that's where I get my Stormtrooper POV from.

Interesting. I know the Albanians had some resistance against the Ottoman Empire, but I didn't know they were involved with the SS. It makes me want to trace my heritage.
My guild in SWG was having a few issues in a city in Talus. We're all Stormtroopers, and our Detachment is stationed there, Dearic. Our daily mission is to search nearby cities and scan for any rebel disturbance. So in one city, we find a rebel disturbance and the guild who runs it says we have no authority there. Does a Stormtrooper Detachment have authority planet wide, or just where they're assigned?

Also, just to point this out, stormtroopers aren't exclusively human. The human supremecy deal was during Palpatine's reign. It went into decline though, and non-humans were allowed into the ranks. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Alien_stormtrooper

Death Watch, a splinter group of the Mandalorians, are in cahoots with Dooku and want to start crap to cause Republic intervention. That will mean the Republic will occupy their system, and Death Watch will get to fight against them, being viewed as liberators by the Mandalorian masses.
This is opposed to the normal Mandalorians, who apparently are a bunch of pacifists that don't wanna get involved in any battle.
Yeah, you can't avoid getting soaked by that massive flood of continuity. confused

Family Guy has turned me onto a mystery that I simply MUST know the answer to.
Why, at the end of Empire Strikes Back, is Lando wearing Han's clothing when he is piloting the Millenium Falcon? I've seen it before, but it never registered in my mind until just now.

Probable cause is Lando didn't have time to grab anything before fleeing Cloud City, and Han happened to have a change of clothes lying about in the Falcon.
After all, it's at least two days from Hoth to the Rendezvous Point. Bespin's farther.
