Don ' t buff or nerf itBuff the other shotguns so they also have a say in things and offer a slightly different playstyle <| sep |> Man , what I wouldn ' t do to be able to go back in time and stop Lucas from coming up with the idea to make Vader into Luke ' s dad to see how the movies would ' ve turned out if they were just a bunch of fun , swashbuckling adventures just vaguely connected to one another , rather than the hyperdramatic , Vadercentric trilogy we wound up with not that I ' m suggesting those pulpy films would ' ve been better , but it would be interesting to see how the films would ' ve turned out if they were all more like Splinter in the Mind ' s Eye rather than The Empire Strikes Back . That said , if we ' re just talking about a oneoff between Star Wars and Empire , I ' d just have a fun flick about Han , Leia and Luke trying to lure a bunch of space pirate buddies of Han ' s to join the Rebellion , all while the Rebels are quietly establishing the base on Hoth . Maybe take a cue from the radio dramas and show how the postDeath Star crackdown on the Rebellion is kicking the Rebels ' asses and how much the Rebellion needs some help establishing the Hoth base , which results in the main gang bopping around a few star systems looking for help while Luke is fussing around with his lightsaber and trying to summon the spirit of Ben Kenobi again . Of course , this all ends up attracting the attention of one of Jabba ' s bounty hunters Boba Fett ? on the deepspace pirate colony of Ord Mantell , which Han , Leia , Luke , Chewie and the droids barely escape from with life and limbs intact .
