[QUOTE="Mokona, post: 3829848, member: 24891"] [b]The King is Dead…Long live the King![/b] [i]Facts explicitly shown in the original versions of Episode IV, V, and VI are valid canon. Almost all of the on-screen action of Episodes I, II, and III are true. :heh: Other items I use at my whim.[/i] Many published materials about the Empire depict them as foolish terrorists running the galaxy. Those claims don't make any sense (you cannot rule a geographically dispersed country which hates you). My game has shades of the American civil war (the Imperial troops are the good guys) and ancient Rome (the rebels are the barbaric hordes). [u]What era?[/u] Day -4 – The Imperial Star Destroyer Fury receives a distress call from Bakura Day -2 – Grand Admiral Thrawn’s flagship, the Fury, arrives at Sullust and hyperspace jumps towards Endor Day 0 – Rebel scum kill the emperor and blow up the Death Star II at Endor Day 2 – Thrawn’s flagship and fleet arrive at Endor and flee via emergency jump Day 6 – The fleeing Imperial fleet arrives at Bakura to handle the invading techno Ssi-ruuk [u]Who are the main villains?[/u] The primary villains are the other contenders to the imperial throne, leaders of the rebel scum, and the two armies of the Ssi-ruuk. [u]Who are the main heroes?[/u] Three field operatives in the Imperial Navy and the would-be-Emperor (aka Grand Admiral Thrawn). Thrawn mostly stays on his flagship, of course. Zahava – a [i]noble[/i] daughter from an anti-droid Deep Core World. Dugo – a Trandoshan hunter ([i]soldier[/i]) Jovin – a Twi’lek who can use the force on computers and an Imperial [i]jedi[/i] [u]Any interesting plotlines?[/u] Grand Admiral Thrawn’s goal will be to become Emperor. To do this his faction must recruit additional soldiers, demonstrate the benefits of Imperial membership to local systems, outmaneuver Princess Leia politically, and defeat rival claimants to the throne. The heroes are aided in their efforts by two different Ssi-ruuk armies that invade the Galactic Empire. This helps them because they’re able to unite the local systems against the external enemy rather than being entirely focused on political and civil warfare. [i]continued...[/i] [/QUOTE]
