    Imagine you are one of a battalion or however many troops, pilots and gunners that were on Crait the day that Luke Skywalker stood there and took every gun available and walked out of it without a scratch. Then he taunts Kylo a bit then disappears like a ghost leaving Ren in a fit of rage.

    Imagine the stories that they will tell.

    Why would anyone believe these people now, but seemingly didn’t believe that he destroyed the Emperor and blew up the Death Star?

    Should cause many FO who witness to evangelize Luke's message.
    Maybe the FO will fracture.

    This was very much the intention. They have just seen a god appear on the battlefield and humiliate their new supreme leader.

    Well that is being set up, especially in the visual dictionary. It would also be the fulfillment of Finn's arc. The First Order command doesn't want the stormtrooper to learn of Finn's insubordination because it might give rise to mutiny within the ranks. Now that an entire combat division has witnessed how weak their leader is compared to the light side hero of the resistance, they might rethink their place in all this.

    It would be awesome to see some stormtrooper versus stormtrooper action in IX. Perhaps the rebel stormtroopers might mark their armour in colour patterns or rebel insignia like the Clone Troopers did.

    Haha, this is what my image was when I made this thread. Imagine what is swimming through their minds.

    There is such a thing called propaganda. At this moment, the Resistance really has little else. They would do everything to spread the word - the spark.

    Also, if there was a holovid of Death Star destruction filmed in the middle of the battle, you can bet someone filmed this, maybe even FO member. A thing like that would go VIRAL. :D

    The kids on Cantonica obviously heard about it if they can recreate the entire scene with action figures.
