The layout of the hallways and rooms along with the CW boarding ship is brilliant, you achieved a lot in a very reduced space.

Great! Than this is certainly going to be a tough competition .

That layout looks wonderful, the build, the story and the characters are great, I will ask this just to be sure because such a great build should award valuable points to your faction, this has been done in "coordination" with other players (commander and pilot) isn't it?

Grey, sleek and original, with a nice imperial touch, the hangar floor also looks pretty nice with the greebles on the edges, now is all up to the troops, I cant wait to see them in action.

I was starting to worry that you rebels wouldn't show up, nice little build by the way.

Who is Sarge and Borris? if they are not actual payers it will be OK, but the aforementioned restrictions apply mostly to commanders, and remember that you must be the one completing the task on your build or be the one coordinating a small amount of troops to do so (but you shouldn't go to wild with the amount of troops).

I dont know the ranks in FO troops but officers and crew make a lot more sense than pilots because they use life support gear (closed masks with hoses) since the TIEs are known to have no life support in their cockpits since the civil war. I would choose Tydirium all the way.

Am I the only one who thinks this character (and consequently the minifig) looks pretty ugly?

I have to admit that this is both: an achievement and a disappointment; an achievement because it's amazingly similar to the source material and it looks very nice (even thou it could use some improvements on the legs to make it stand by its own); and a disappointment because it is (as many other ships that have appeared as sets from the movie) kind of ugly, but you had it spot on, great creation! don't stop building this cool stuff.

The player may include NPCs for its build, as long as he is the one doing the mission that has been tasked to him, lets say that each player would be like a sargent, he needs to be briefed but its troops may not need to have to much details regarding to the mission, any player may include a dead trooper over here and a couple more entangled on a shootout, but the protagonist of the build must be the one breaching doors, destroying barricades, slicing computer terminals or what ever has been comanded to him, the pilot only has to fit the main characters in order to not push him too hard on building an outrageously large ship (a 5 or 6 seater has to be quite big to me). The specification for the commander was in order to make clear that he (the only one with size restrictions) does not have to build a scene too big to fit NPCs as long as they are not tasked with the missions that should be assigned to players..

And the MODs are...?

You are sending an elite raiding party, you cant send regular troopers to do a mission this important, crucial roles in this case would be: transporting your troops on an specialized and unique ship (second in command), defending the landing zone, clearing enemies and debris from the way and extracting the data from the main computer, it's not necessary to send a single large strikeforce even though it would mean more troops on the ground, from a strategic point of view, if one of the ships gets shot down you will still have half of your troops on the way instead of a whole lot of bad news.

Beaver has it spot on.

You can include minifigures that are not sigfigs as long as they are in the background and don't intend to intervene on the battle, lets say a technician supplying fuel or a couple soldiers having a pointless conversation, but no "this guy is our pilot" or "trooper X and Y will man the turrets of our ship".

Good, gooood, your hate will make you powerful . Seriously, I was starting to get a little worried with the silence over here, maybe this time we made the rules clear enough, and yes, there will be no exceptions this time, the deadline will change for nobody, regardless of the effect it could have on the final score.

Lord Vader is pleased with your enthusiasm .

The rebellion will certainly be thankful of your contribution.

The new secure frequency has been activated, ask again if you are still out of it.

Right.
