First of all, let’s address a rumor that we have been hearing about the new Starkiller base. What we know is that it’s going to be on what looks like a snow planet, much like Hoth, and that’s where we’re assuming is their headquarters, much like Echo Base to the Rebels in The Empire Strikes Back. With the merchandise and an update on starwars.com database, there have been some reveals on the characters and their importance. One important thing that stood out to us was the Starkiller Base which is a weapon a bit stronger than the Death Star. And when I say a bit, I mean, it’s capable of taking out entire star systems, much like the weapon Kyp Durron stole(the Suncrusher) to blow up suns. We’re a little skeptical about this idea, although The First Order needs a way to gain their dominance back into the galaxy after the death of the Emperor and the second Death Star. You think they would have learned, but hey, third times a charm, right?
