    So it’s pretty obvious now that Tarkin is likely to play a big role at least in the first episode that’s supposedly 70 minutes

    Let’s talk about that

    I think Tarkin like i said months ago will be the Bad Batch's main villain, and this new trailer all but confirms it, We will see him bring down the might of the empire.

    They could use Tarkin to explain why the clone army was transitioned to Stormtroopers. Unless that has already been covered? I'm not caught up on it all.

    Not really it’s just sorta explained away as being to expensive, but they could definitely expand on it

    I don't think Tarkin will be the main villain of the whole show. From the trailer it seems to me that Tarkin will be the main villain of the 70 min opening and the main reason why the Bad Batch defects, but then we probably won't see him that much. Maybe in the season finale again.

    The premise seems like that of the A-Team and GI Joe Renegades with a Star Wars twist. He'd likely be a Colonel Lynch type.

    I could see Tarkin as the primary antagonist, yes.

    If Crosshair defects he may be the main antagonist. Probably something like The Dragon for Tarkin who is the real big bag. Would be interesting if Rex is also in this role. Saw will probably introduce his own agenda that may come with a common enemy or another antagonist. Maybe the fringes of the CIS will also be a problem.

    We know Rex and Saw are friends and probaly worked together after the clone wars, it be intresting if Saw tries to troduce his agenda onto Rex and he bites maybe suffers for it, I think back to the book Tarkin witch mentions the horrors he inflicted on the CIS world that sided against the republic, so maybe we see some of that. I think old CIS holdouts still around. Cody vs Rex might one this series main lpot points overall and might not get resolved until the end of the series.

    I wonder where will see Tarkin in season 2, after leaving Kamino. He oversaw the death star construction with Emperor Sheev Palpatine and Darth Vader. And soon after he begins his campaign against former Sepratist that gets soo heated he must go away from the public for few years. Maybe we see Tarkin begin his campaign.

    Tarkin once again asking another Imp about budget is already too repetitive.

    Starting to think Tarkin was actually doing overtime as the Empire’s accountant
