Item #7: The "Stun" Setting
I have but one question to ask the Stormtrooper who didn't kill Princess Leia when he had
the chance: how the hell are you gonna stun somebody who just blew your buddy away?
Answer: you're not. Nobody would. You'd smoke that chain-smoking ice-princess like salmon.
Herein lies the whole problem.
If you're gonna make a blaster that doesn't shoot well in the first place (see Item #1) why
bother to equip it with a less-lethal function that is, apparently, more accurate? Why not
swap the two and make the deadly laser-ray or whatever, come out all huge so you can't
miss? You might not find the rebel base but at least we wouldn't have to watch her get fat
and old.
