A Puzzling Question
I was just reading X Wing Isard's Revenge when I reached the attack on Warlord Krennel's world of Liinade III. Now, during this battle, the Rogues, flying X Wing's, went up against Imperial Walkers and won eaily. This seemed obvious, due to superior weapons and speed. This leads to a very large question that questions that sanity of the Rebel leadership on Hoth: Why didn't the Rogues use their X-Wings there? That would have seemed like the obvious choice, since the snow speeders were hardly ready, and were no match for the ATATs. This money put into these could have been used elsewhere, and it would have saved the lives of not only the Rogues, but the ground troops who were killed by the onslaught. Also, at the end of the fighting, Luke gets back into his X-Wing, so obviously there was no mechanical error with them.

Comments or questions would be great. Thanks, and MTFBWY.
