Maybe it would help? The fighters alone seemed to do just fine at assaulting the Death Star and CR-90's are still very susceptible to turbolaser fire, of which the Death Star has lots of. CR-90's are smaller and more maneuverable than Nebulon-B's and larger but they're not going to be able to avoid turbolasers the way X-Wings and Y-Wings can.

And again, sending in a larger force than what was shown in the movie also assumes that Empire would respond with a larger defense force. So not only will there be many more TIE Fighters, but it may be safe to assume TIE bombers are sent to clean up the CR-90's that aren't being picked off by the Death Star's turbolasers. So now the Rebels have to split their forces between trench run and defending their corvettes.

So is Ghost Obi-Wan and his preivious master there? If so the fight quickly becomes this if they intervene.

According to legends EU anything bigger than the Falcon would simply get shredded by the thousands of turbo-lasers on the DS.

Death Star is OP, Needs Nerfs now!

lol

Not going to lie, I wish this happened in a cutscene in Diablo 3 for the necromancer's arrival

I got the impression that the sensors on the Death Star would have been pretty good, as they were able to detect a YT 1300 jumping out of hyperspace and tractor beam it. That ship was supposed to be pretty fast. I think that the Death Star would have been able to catch on to the Rebel's scheme, and then tractor beam U-Wings to destroy them with turbolasers, or have boarding forces ready. Speaking of, pretty sure once the Death Star caught wind of Rebel Dropships approaching the Death Star, they'd have stormtroopers in the docking bays. I don't think it could happen. Great scenario, though!
