Don't you have anything better to do than say negative things in people's topics? Every time I see that bear I know it's not going to be a good comment.

Probably because you create nerf threads ;)

I'm sorry you can't unlock a 7* EP.

Old ben was never officially a active member of the rebellion. He spent his whole time since the creation of the Empire on tatooine looking after Luke. Aiding a movement us not the sane as being a actual member. But that being said Han was not even a official member of the rebellion until the second film. Which means technically only the Han from heroic raids should have the rebel tag not stormtrooper Han. But since he does that means old ben should as well.

Helping the rebellion is not the same as being a rebel. He was definitely a rebellion sympathiser but hid away from it until it came to him in the form of Anakin's son (destiny?). He never got close enough or involved enough to be considered rebel though.

He was still part of the rebellion before he died.

He rescued a friend from the Empire. He did that with no rebellion help and no rebellion members. He didn't even see Leia before he died, so at no point during that 'mission' did he even come into contact with rebellion personel.

but by accepting the MISSION (as you stated), he committed himself to the Rebellion cause rom that moment on. And its not like he didn't know who Leia was, and was friends with her adopted Father.

Honestly I don't care about if he gets the tag or not. I feel pretty good that I will beat the Palp event (once I get Luke and STH to 7*...3 more days).

I put mission in quotes because it's never referred to in the film as a 'mission'. He didn't do it for the rebellion and he never 'committed himself to the rebellion' - he did it for his friend and to face his 'destiny' with Vader.

In any case, there's no indication of what time in the film the in-game character is based. It could even be Old Ben before he even left Tattooine or saw Leia's message. Like someone else said, helping the rebellion does not make you a rebel.

Nope. Leia asks him to help, he helps. He's not a member of the Rebel Alliance.

Nor was ST Han.

The desperation to unlock Palpatine is strong in this thread.

The best part is him talking to himself.

Markusfive, alexone. Where's billthree or bobbytwo? Or maybe tyronefour? He can have a whole thread of agreeing with himself with all these multiple accounts he could possibly come up with. Not sure what names he may have used for two three and four of he has made them yet, those are just guesses.

And if he hasn't, I nominate those names to be used when he does create them.
