This is going to sound strange, but am I one of the few people who actually doesn’t mind the Ewoks and appreciates how they overcame that Imperial detachment?
I’m serious. The Ewok stratagem is far from unintelligent. They attack the enemy by surprise then quickly withdraw to entice a pursuit (which the arrogant Imperials fall for hook line and sinker), whereupon they use numbers, superior knowledge of terrain, and traps they’ve set to steadily whittle down the enemy’s numbers.
That way they not only laid waste to the garrison (at a very high cost I might add), but gave the Alliance commandos the time they needed to destroy the DSII’s shield generator.
The Ewok chieftain was no Sun Tzu, but he knew what he was doing and his warriors were willing to make the sacrifice for a free Galaxy.
