Though, you are wrong about the Sith having no patience... heck... they waited a thousand years to strike out at the Jedi... if you don't call that patience... I don't know what is...

But... I still put my money on someone like Joe Johnston (if that's how you spell his name...)



The Sith are most calculating, NHM. The reason it took us a thousand years is because certain calculations take a little more time than others, and then Darth Plagus the Stupid forgot the value of Pi so we carried out our master plan, but on the wrong planet approximately 20 times. Damn him!

hey all-
apparently my question about these insignias is in this issue of SW Insider (so a friend of mine tells me)...!
I don't have an issue handy and was wondering if any of you had it and could tell me what it says!!!!

They said:

I forwarded your question to John Mollo and here's his reply: " The metal insignia used on the officers cap and belt buckles, was an aluminum pulley which was part of a record turntable mechanisim, that we bought in bulk and used exactly as they were. The black and white logo used on imperial helmets was designed by me, and was based on a series of sketches workign out the possible use of shapes occurring in the 18th century fortifaction. "The rebel logo I take to be the one on the rebel helmets. was again designed be me-no particular sources used this time."
