* HilariousInHindsight: The Empire's victory [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8x7NlzmBQsE cinematic]] involves a Mon Calamari cruiser and a smaller vessel trying to escape only to the intercepted by an Imperial Star Destroyer who just jumps in, cutting its escape, bissecting the smaller ship in half instantly upon arrival and destroying the Rebel cruiser with the help of two other Destroyers. Fast forward to ''Film/RogueOne'', [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BXTUOxbgpwa a very similar scene]] happens except with only one Star Destroyer, complete with a Rebel ship instantly destroyed upon arrival, another one being cut in half and the Mon Calamari cruiser being neutralized.

** The Assault Frigate is one of the Rebellion's first research results and it significantly tips the balance of fleet power in the Rebellion's favour (and the Empire doesn't catch up until it gets Strike Cruisers). An assault frigate is cheap, easily manufactured, and more than a match for the Imperial Star Destroyers that make up the mainstay of the Empire's early fleet. More or less as soon as the Rebellion starts putting out the Assault Frigate, the space game is reset as most of the Empire's existing ships will be rendered worthless.
** Han Solo. He and any characters (not special forces) travelling with him move at double speed as they catch a ride on the ''Millenium Falcon''. This mobility gives rebel characters a huge edge in the early game, as they can move to places of interest in the galaxy far faster than the Empire can react. A popular early game tactic is to send Han and a group of combatants to incite an uprising on whatever world(s) the Empire controls that are loyal to the Rebellion. Unless the planet is in the Sesswenna Sector (with the Emperor nearby and enough Imperial power to curtail the attempt), or the Empire is lucky enough to have a diplomat in the area that can move quickly to improve the system's allegiance, the planet can very quickly fall into uprising and take most of the rest of the sector with it.
