the imperial star destroyer has always fascinated me. it's a gunship, but it's also an aircraft carrier, and also a troop transport. that always seemed inefficient to me. but i think it tells us something about how the empire worked. the galaxy is a big, complicated place and imperial presence was surprisingly thin on the ground. my guess is that star destroyers are very logistically convenient. it might also tell us something about imperial command culture. my guess is that splitting roles across ships didn't work very well because the authoritarian culture of the empire made cooperation difficult. having one ship with one guy in charge probably worked better. i think it also suggests that the empire was focused more on internal politics than peer conflict. which makes sense because they had no peers. but was also why the rebellion tended to overperform.
