Okay, all numbers are figured out: Rebel fleet's, SSD surviving numbers, Imperial Garrison strength, rebel base strength.

For sake of fairness, I won't be posting the numbers, since both sides of the conflict are expected to be represented.

I'll be sending out pm's to all "generals/admirals" prior to the game starting with the numbers you can expect to rely on in the impending battle ahead.

I will however post the rebel fleet's strength, because it is the only thing that is actually known to both sides. With the exception of Fighter squadron strengths.

4 MC 80 cruisers: unknown damages
4 Nebulon B frigates: damaged
6 Mk 1 Assault Frigates: damaged
1 Acclamator 1 assault ship: Heavy damage
12 Corellian Corvettes: Moderate to severe damage
4 Dreadnaght Cruisers: Moderate to severe damage
1 Acclamator 2: moderate damage
2 Mk 2 Assault Frigates: moderate and heavily damaged.

Those are the surviving ships from the main Rebel fleet in the Outer Rim area.

Battle is on/above Arcopola. Garrison is located at edge of Greccia, the planetary capital.

Thoughts/comments on Opener?


Sorry, it was so long it required a second posting to finish it.

good opener i think it sets the tone nicely without rushing any of the players characters to do things that would seem too quick

and yes i changed my concept for my imperial character to a tech specialist and will have his stats posted asap along with my rebel medical operative

Sweet stuff, guys! Nice pic.

Can I have an idea of what I've got to work with? I'd like to know, so as to make this posting more authentic.

Thank you oh so much. Now I have a bit of a reference point to get my forces moving to mount a decent defense.

Ouch.... Those are quite heavy loses... Though good to see a handful is still intact or at the very least operable or repairable.

I'm surprised that we actually have a few undamaged AT-AT's and Juggernauts given the severity of the crash.

Definitely keep up the quality of posts guys.

We can go with that route, I won't mind a bit.

I'm sure no one else will either.

Just remember to keep it clean.

I'll be bringing the other side of the equation forward in a little bit.
