*Your entry has earned 21 XP* Excerpt from Cdr. Bannon’s log: Since I was already in the system, high command tasked me with a covert operation on the planet Gorse. The mission was to infiltrate a New Republic thorilide refinery, and plant a transmitter spike for future operations. This was usually a mission for a small crew like Reaper Squad, but ever since Nadiri, and Rae Sloane’s strike on Gorse, New Republic security has tightened. This meant I was to spearhead a diversion, disguised as a diplomatic mediator between Zeltron suppliers and the refinery boss, while Reaper Squad and a stormtrooper platoon from the 88th infiltrated the installation. Cdr. Bannon: Greetings Dr. Sihlbar. I’m here to deliver a message from Minister Freyi An’zeli. The two New Republic security officers flinched as Cdr. Bannon held out a small holoprojector, and a beautiful (by humanoid standards) flickering figure came to life mid-air… Minister Freyi: Dr.! I will dispense of the pleasantries and get straight to business. For too long have you and your new government exploited the hospitality of Zeltron. We will block all baradium shipments rerouted from the Zel system until you agree to Cdr. Bannon’s terms… The Zeltron paused for a moment... Minister Freyi: Should you choose not to agree, Zeltron will turn to the aid of the Imperial Triumvirate! The Mon Calamari Dr. looked from side to side, blinking a few times before muttering… Dr. Sihlbar: Tshis es non negoseable? Tshe New Rebublic does not answer to imperial threatsh. A transmission crackled through to Cdr. Bannon’s hidden ear-pierce… Lt. Sin Veruna: Commander. I’m in position. Ready to take out the scum on your signal! ' Cdr. Bannon turned his attention to the Mon Calamari... Cdr. Bannon: You can kiss your Baradium supply goodbye. Lt. Delp Wep: Not s-so hasty. A renegotiation of the agreement with Zeltron sh-should take place with the Gorse refinery administration, not with the refineries directly. I suggest you make an appointment with the board. We can escort you to the administration building. Cdr. Bannon: That won’t be necessary! The Commander nodded, and the low muffled sound of two silent sniper bolts - PZZHAM - BZZHAMM - is drowned out by the mechanical hum of the refinery... Some moments before on top of platform nine... Lt. Fell Vreach: Fell here! Had to put a runner down. I have another engineer top-side. He’s quiet for now. Meanwhile on the basin walkway... Maj. Raath Hagar: This is Raath. We’ve unlocked the back entrance. We’ll enter the installation from here and from the sewer drains below. And below in the basin... Srg. Wellen (TK-6382): Quiet! Get into the drain quickly, but keep it down! We have live ones at the basin. /// Man this build took some time, and it was testing me at times. It may seem a bit messy with all the characters, but I wanted to exploit all the possible scenes in the build... Also this build served as a proving ground for some techniques I want to incorporate in future builds... I hope you enjoy it, and as always I'd love to hear your honest feedback! Below you'll find some behind-the-scenes shots:

*Your entry has earned 9 XP* Onboard the Imperal Super Star Destroyer, The Resurrector - Conference Room Several Imperial senators and commanders stand around a black conference table. Imperial stormtroopers stand guard around the room. Senator Vancar, a hip slimy-looking Senator, is speaking. Senator Vancar: Until the traitors are dealt with we are vulnerable. The New Republic is getting information from high ranking members of the Imperial Triumvirate. They’re a bigger threat than you realize. Even the Mandalorians see this as their moment to retaliate! The bitter Moff Pantoloc shifts nervously. Moff Pantoloc: Dangerous to your trade agreements, Senator, not to the Imperial Triumvirate! Senator Vancar: The New Republic will continue to close in on our activities until… ' Suddenly all heads turn as Senator Vancar’s speech is cut short and the Supreme Moff Barthol, one of the Triumvirs, enters. He is followed by two Royal Guards. All of the commanders stand and bow before the old, evil-looking moff as he takes his place at the center of the room. The Royal Guards stand behind him. Supreme Moff Barthol: The traitors have been dealt with, and the New Republic will no longer be of any concern to us. From now on our operations will be run decentralized, from each Imperial Remnant in the united Imperial Triumvirate. The New Republic does not have the resources to monitor Imperial activities from the Core to the Outer Rim. Moff Pantoloc: That's impossible! How will we maintain control without a centralized command. Supreme Moff Barthol: Regional commanders now have direct control of Imperial operations in their territory. These commanders will operate independently, with the directive of the Triumvirs, and High Command. Senator Vancar: And what of the traitors? If the Republic has obtained knowledge of our plans, it is possible, however unlikely, that they might introduce additional sanctions against imperial activities. Grand Prince Serion: If your real concern is vacancies in High Command, I assure you they will be filled! Tell me senator; When have sanctions ever stopped us? Supreme Moff Barthol: Enough! This is not a committee! The Supreme Moff flicks a button on the table console, and a holographic chart appears mid-air. Supreme Moff Barthol: With this reorganization we will initiate three new directives that will keep the New Republic incapacitated. We want them to stay vigilant towards carefully chosen activities, in order to draw their gaze away from others. We will focus our efforts and resources on the three directives: Operation Nightwing, Operation Thorn, and Operation Resurrection! These are the supreme directives, and take priority over all other operations. These directives are all working toward restoring the Glory of the Empire! Grand Prince Serion: For security reasons, we will brief each commander of their involvement separately. You will each receive a droid carrying your directive details. Commander Bannon, and Administrator Goren, please stay. The rest of you are dismissed! To be continued… /// I've had this one in the works for some time... I still want to do an Imperial Conference room like the one from ANH, but this one was especially inspired by the concept art below... I really like flags and banners, so this was a perfect setting for displaying a couple... Also the black table I'm really happy about... Check out more photos below:
