I'm thinking anything in this relm will be like the recent 3-packs, so
it would be one officer and exactly 2 stromtroopers.  A posibility for
next year, perhaps?

Only likely to happen after they've first released a mid/high priced SW set
with stormtroopers in.
I'm guessing it will be a not-to-scale minifig scale star destroyer.

assault craft (not as cool, but still cool)

As cool as a blockade runner would be, Lego could never do it.  At minifig
scale it would have to be about 375 studs long.  However, I would really like
to see an Emperor's Shuttle.  It would give them an excuse to put the Emperor
in a set.

...But a blockade runner could shrink easier and without as much scale issues as the ISD.
I could easily see a model about the length as the MF with the general shape of the BR
holding a dozen troops :-) (tho the shuttle would be _much_ cooler at that scale)
