The do (ineffectively, pointlessly) return fire, if that counts.
They do manage to bring the Imperial hammer down on Cloud City. They also propagandize the poor Ewoks into joining their war, which has got to be somewhere around using dolphins in warfare, ethically speaking.
- cwyers 11y agoCloud City, per Lando's admission, wasn't part of the Empire when the Falcon landed there. As for the Ewoks -- it seems pretty clear that the Ewoks were already engaged in combat with the Empire before the Rebels arrived -- Warrick kills a stormtrooper when rescuing Leia, and Han and Luke are caught in a trap that seems like it would've been set for imperial forces. (I think one could argue that the Ewoks before the arrival of the Rebellion were operating an insurgency against the Imperial forces.)

Now that I think about it, judging from what the Ewoks do when they catch Our Heroes, they may have been hunting stormtroopers for food. There's a creepy angle on the whole thing that I'd never considered.
