    Its just like Star Wars Return of the Jedi, they acchieved the instant win condition, as seen starting from .26 of this clip. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEzcrfJ667E
    The Expanded Universe actually has the scenario that the Empire doesn't immediately fall and the remaining Imperial Forces are fittingly refered to as the Imperial remnants.

    Of course, no matter how awesome the expanded Universe is with situations and characters - Lucas has disown it because its not "My Star Wars".

    They haven't really shown much off-world activity. It has all been on earth so far. Give it a couple of issues before they start showing elsewhere. They still have to set up the current situation

    Also, it is said that the Emperor was using force battle meditation to co-ordinate the imperial forces. With his loss they would have been thrown into a mess. Not to mention how demoralizing losing the death star would have been

    The Empire looses Death Stars all the time, surely it was more demoralizing having elite troops defeated by teddy bears.
