Year released: 2017-2018 Appears in sets 75197-1, First Order Specialists Battle Pack; 75190-1, First Order Star Destroyer The First Order, also known simply as the Order, was an autocratic military junta—formed from a remnant of the Galactic Empire—that grew from a hermit state in the Unknown Regions to the dominant galactic power. A successor state to the Empire, the First Order was dominated by a ruling political and military human class. The First Order gradually colonized large swathes of the Unknown Regions during the reign of Supreme Leader Snoke, claiming the territory which would serve a crucial role in the regime's plan to eventually seize the galaxy at large. Yet despite their conquest, the First Order's expansion and military rule was met with resistance and rebellion. A pilot, sometimes called a starpilot or flyboy, directly controlled the operation of a vehicle while located within the same craft. For small starships the pilot might have been in charge of all aspects of the vehicle including navigation, sensors, communications and weapons. For larger ships, a pilot may have been assisted by other crew members to handle different ship systems. The term "pilot" applied across vehicles used on land or in water, air, and/or space. Combat pilots would either need to move together or singly during starfighter combat. According to the Chiss Thrawn, pilots in a battle, like soldiers on a battlefield, saw victory differently from others in battle. Thrawn stated this was because to a pilot or soldier on the line, victory was surviving the battle they were currently involved in.
