	Grand Moff Tarkin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin (64 BBY - 0 BBY) is a fictional character in the Star Wars universe, portrayed in the film Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope by British actor Peter Cushing.
		It is known that at this point that Tarkin was already a regional governor, a position that, according to a deleted scene from the movie, had not existed for very long.
		As a countermeasure, Tarkin proposed dividing the Empire into "priority sectors." These would overlap the existing astrographic and political sectors and be defined by the level of treasonous activity.

	Grand Moff Tarkin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		rand Moff Tarkin is Governor of the Imperial Outland Regions, and a dreaded servant of Emperor Palpatine.
		Led by Admiral Motti and General Tagge, Tarkin's tactical brain-trust aboard the Death Star is unmatched anywhere in the Empire, constituting a formidable power to match the capabilities of the Death Star itself.
		Tarkin wastes no time in committing his evil creation to this mission, as he selects Princess Leia's home planet Alderaan to be destroyed by the Death Star as a horrific example of absolute Imperial might.

		Grand Moff Tarkin is Governor of the Imperial Outland Regions, and a dreaded servant of Emperor Palpatine.
		Tarkin's conception of the battle station's use is as a grand weapon of intimidation and fear: "Rule through the fear of the force," he observed, "rather than through force itself." The mere existence of the Death Star would cow into submission the widely scattered star systems too disparate to police effectively with armed presence.
		Tarkin is an interesting individual, a kind of person who appears untouchable, both in the heat of battle and on the Senate floor.

	Grand Moff Tarkin
		Tarkin was a tall, thin man. He had gaunt features which made him seemed ruthless, which in fact he was.
		But Tarkin had underestimated Leia's strong will, and she did not allow herself to divulge the place where the plans had been taken, not even under extreme pain from the droids.
		Tarkin was always doomed, as he underestimated his opponent time and again, not realising that the fear he spread would be used against him, and ultimately destroy him.

		Grand Moff Tarkin Conceptual Presentation Photo: Not only was the idea of a Bantha toy kicked around at Kenner during the waning days of their Star Wars product line, that of a Grand Moff Tarkin figure--everyone's choice as the winner of the "gee-I-wish-they-had-made-that-figure" pageant--apparently was as well.
		Rather, we are left with this presentation piece--consisting simply of what appears to be a mounted photo of Peter Cushing, and the hand-printed title "Grand Moff Tarkin"--as one of the very few pieces of evidence that the figure may have indeed been considered for a post-POTF release.
		Much of the information regarding the Tarkin concept, as well as the existence of other unproduced conceptual material, was first brought to light by collecting guru, Steve Sansweet, who covered these concepts and prototypes in issue #2 of Star Wars Galaxy Magazine.

		I agree that Tarkin and Vader are about the same rank, but in different branches of the Empire, although I think that at the time of ANH Tarkin was more important and more useful, Vader came to more prominance and use later.
		Tarkin is integrual to Palpatine to oversee the Death Star.
		Tarkin is very much a political head of the empire, a decision maker, he has absolute rule of much of the Empire.

		I always got the feeling that Vader and Tarkin were equal in standing but from totally different branches of government and that Vader deffered to Tarkin while on board the Death Star because that was Tarkin's personal command.
		It's possible that Tarkin is privvy to secrets that no one else knows, whether he's really an old friend of Vader's from way back or just the couple of decades between Episodes 2 and 4 (which would probably still qualify as "old friend").
		Grand Moff Tarkin was the ruler of a vast area of space.

		Later, Tarkin lent his vast intellect to providing the framework for the New Order's founding precepts, providing scholarly and well-reasoned arguments to Emperor Palpatine's emotional speeches.
		Tarkin's seminal text Visions of the New Order served as the blueprint for COMPNOR-related organizations such as the Imperial Security Bureau and the paramilitary group COMPForce.
		Tarkin's approach to governing his sectors was a textbook implementation of the Tarkin Doctrine, and Project Death Star was its ultimate expression.

		We saw a lot of high-ranking officials were aboard the Death Star (when Tarkin announced that the Emporer had dissolved the Senate), so if they were still on-board when it blew up, there would've been a power vacuum.
		Tarkin would've had one, and the Emporer would've had one at his command as well, as he wouldn't trust Tarkin with such a weapon at his disposal.
		We can't forget about the secret Imperial Installation that was commanded by Grand Moff Dalla that was builing a death star was well as holding the ultimate weapon, the Sun Crusher.

		Posted - 05/15/2003 : 3:35:28 PM From what I could extrapolate, Grand Moff is a title held that's more prestigous than that of Moff.
		Moffs are placed in control of planets or certain sensitive Imperial locations, so perhaps Grand Moffs(if there were more than Tarkin) held sectors in control, and the Moffs reported to them.

		Tarkin's (played by Wayne Pygram (Farscape)) title in ROTS is 'Regional Governor of the Outer Rim Territories'.
		And Having Tarkin be the main villian makes a lot of sense to me on different levels.
		As for "Moff", it is a title; Tarkin is the first "Grand Moff", and Jerjerrod (greets Vader's shuttle at start of ROTJ) is listed as "Moff Jerjerrod" in the credits.

		Actually, it makes sense that Tarkin may not appear in a prominant role until later if you remember that his rise in power corresponded with the rise of the Emperor.
		It would make a hell of alot of sense for Tarkin to be seen somewhere as he works with the Emperor to gain control over the Senate.
		In my humble opinion, the man for the job of a young Tarkin in the prequels is none other than the fine British actor Tim Roth.
