501st (Star Wars: Republic Commando)

The characters often grapple with tough choices that feel very human despite the sci-fi setting. I wonder what inspired these ethical conflicts.

The descriptions brought the fights to life, but I’m curious if that level of detail was challenging to write or if it just came naturally.

Their camaraderie seemed so genuine and central to the story. I’d love to know if the author based this on real military units or created it purely from imagination.
