IMPORTANT ABOUT TSE

[Darth Turbogeek]

TSE have given up their fleets and all their planents are now for grabs, apart from their home one. TSE are offering that the NR NRSF / Jedi make a grab for them first and see them freed of their oppressors.

There is a thread at SWFans that has the NR fleets moving.

This is a good tme to get out there and work a few of these planets into the republic - just like a Jedi would do. I'll leave that up to you.

If you have a NR character, your invited to join the next few days mayhem

[Anbira Hicchoru]

Whoa...I seem to have missed this. Where is this? And if true, are they now pulling a TBH?

[Jedi Knight Leia Solo]

Boy things have changed!

[Navaria Tarkin]

=\

seems to me they wanted to avoid a war with TGE that was coming up...

Can we get Bakura back? <img src=http://www.thegjo.com/forum/smileys/biglaugh.gif ALT=":D"> Tis was Dale's/Nav's homeworld ^___^

[Anbira Hicchoru]

Ooh, and Byss would make an EXCELLENT training world for our padawans.

[Figrin D an]

I've been pretty inactive in RP lately... but this one might just be worth while... Maybe it's time I actually use that NRSF character I created a while back...

[Darth Turbogeek]

Yes, they did this to avoid being drawn into a war they simply did not want.

So, what do we want? I'm targeting Dubrillion, Byss and Kessel. Bakura can be done as well.... any more?

[Nichos Marr]

I'd stay away from Dubrillion and Byss. TGE has targeted those. I was thinking Kessel might be a good idea. An NRSF mission to free the NR people who are undoubtedly there.

Fett suggested that last past.

[Satine Capashen]

DT~Mind if I help you out with those planets?

Oh, and is the Jedi Warrior class a part of NRSF?

[Darth Turbogeek]

No, I have my reasons for Dubrillion. I AM going to get it back


Satine - Absoluty to both, go for it.

[Nichos Marr]

Good luck getting past the Imperial fleet there, DT.

[Darth Turbogeek]

Someone's already there ^_^

And actually, its DEbrillion. I just ran through where the ex RSO home base is and it Debrillion, must be a transcription error on TSE's half. . Which is the one I''m after. Dubrillion is all TGE's

[Satine Capashen]

So, what do I do? Make a thread for my character to try and gain Debrillion or another planet for the Jedi's and NR?

[Hart Kenobi]

Will this call for fleet rping? And if so, who here knows how to do that? Is General Scorpian still with the GJO?

[Darth Turbogeek]

Scorp is with GJO, yes.

The person who really wants Debrillion isn;t me. But.... you do know of that person.

[Navaria Tarkin]

I am not even close to being a fleet expert but if we are going to go after Bakura, Nav has her reasons for going there since the TSE slaughter and all... it is her home in her mind...

So when that happens, I can tag along or something <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/image/emoticons_classic/smile.gif ALT=":)">

[Darth Turbogeek]

One point I would like to make -

You dont need to do anything with fleets if you dont want to. I can say that the Dubrillion reply will not involve a fleet

[Navaria Tarkin]

Well ... I was just saying I suck at fleets for the record DT =P

Okay... anyone want to kick people off Bakura and bring it back to the light before Visc sets his eyes on it?


EDIT~

From what I remember that I did when I was in TSE with Bakura... there is a landing platform that is the main shipping area and the main base of OPS. The mansion was taken over by the new TSE ambassdor. Plus, Gabriel ... the character from the books that I had played ... was the old Prime Minster and is still alive.

I was thinking of blowing up the base and the platform and get the people to revolt.

so whatcha think?

[Sage Hazzard]

I have no clue how this would be done. How do you take a world? Wouldn't you need a full on assualt?

My NRSF character would like to free Kessel of all it's slaves, and secure it for the NR. How would I do this? It's very important to my character. He has a past with the Spice Mines.

[Darth Turbogeek]

How do you take a world without a fleet assault?


Ahhh, good question. I have done so twice without a fleet.

a) Endor was freed by a guerrrilla warfare. Gue wouldnt shift, so a couple of us went and basically caused so many problems, he had to leave

b) Negotiation. Talk em into joining. I would suspect a planet being freed from tyranny would love to talk to some Jedi.


On the other side, a sudden and unexpected post may turn a whole battle. Who remembers how Bespin was made useless for a while to RSO? One very clever post. I also remember that one clever post was the downfall of the Jedi Temple at Coruscant too.

Look, I'm not saying it's easy, but the point is, you think only fleet,then you fight against strength. We will lose. If you think outside of the box, I predict that they wont have a chance.

If we get adventureous and come up with new ways to do things..... it's also a lot more fun.

Kessel Sage.... all that would take is a good deal of bribery. It's a criminal planet mainly. Why bother attacking, when you can pay em off .... or promise them protection within certain guidelines. Okay, maybe not as a Jedi.... but that is what the NRSF is for. To fight dirty and not conventionally. Sure they have big ships, but the real strength is the freedom to move as they see fit. Go to it laddie :)

[Navaria Tarkin]

I have actually thought about this some more and decided to combine my original plan with your plan b DT <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/image/emoticons_classic/smile.gif ALT=":)">

I am going to start my post now... anyone is free to join in but I will need NR support after Bakura says sure =P

[Master Yoghurt]

I definitely think we should go for Kessel and Bakura.

Regarding Kessel, we should keep in mind the potential revolting force here; the spice miners who after years of slavery would be more than willing to rebel against their opressors. When thinking about it, you dont really need a fleet to collapse a planetary goverment.

Here some facts about Kessel and Bakura:

Bakura

Bakura is a rich, green and blue planet with several moons located on the isolated edge of the Rim Worlds. The eight planets in the Bakura system include one gas giant and Planet Six, an ammonia ice-covered ball. Bakura receives a great deal of rainfall. The capital city of Salis D'aar sits at the base of a mountain range, on a white quartz delta between two parallel rivers. Bakura's exports include strategic metals, repulsorlift components, and an addictive fruit called namana, which is made into candies and nectar. Bakura was settled by the Bakur mining corporation during the end of the Clone Wars, though at least one building on the planet is over 100 years old. The planet's inhabitants tend to be prejudiced against non-human species, though some pale, hairless Kurtzen inhabit the Kishh district. The Bakurans especially dislike droids, since the first wave of Bakuran colonists were nearly wiped out by malfunctioning droids. The Bakur complex in Salis D'aar is a large city-center containing residential, medical, and Imperial office areas, and the old Bakur Memorial Building overlooking Statuary Park. Animal life on Bakura includes the butter newt and the predatory Bakuran Cratsch, and its plants include pokkta leaves, namana trees, and passion-bud vines.

Bakura was once run by a prime minister and a senate-- the descendants of the Bakur Corporation's original ship's captain served as prime minister, and senators were appointed by their colleagues instead of elected by the public. The constant governmental bickering allowed the planet to fall easily to the Empire three years prior to the Battle of Endor. Two Star Destroyers neutralized Bakuran resistance, and Captain Alecs Brellar served as the temporary Imperial governor until Wilek Nereus could arrive. Nereus allowed the Bakuran senate to remain in place under his control, and built a planetary garrison (featuring older, outdated defenses) which was placed under the command of Pter Thanas. Immediately following the Battle of Endor, Alliance and Imperial forces briefly joined together at Bakura to thwart an invasion by the Ssi-ruuk Imperium. After the subsequent overthrow of Imperial forces, Prime Minister Yeorg Captison took over the leadership of Bakura. Several years later, Yeorg's niece Gaeriel Captison was elected Prime Minister, but was defeated in a succeeding election. The planet retained a powerful defensive fleet to guard against any further Ssi-ruuk attacks, and Bakuran techs designed the ships to escape from interdiction fields. Luke Skywalker returned to Bakura, fourteen years after the truce, to borrow this fleet for a mission in the Corellian system. Half of the Bakuran cruisers were destroyed in the successful mission, and Gaeriel Captison was killed.



Kessel

Kessel is a potato-shaped planet with one large moon located somewhat near Fwillsving and Honoghr. It is home to the city of Kessendra, is the only source of the telepathy-inducing glitterstim spice, and was the former site of a brutal Imperial prison and spice mining operation. Kessel's surface is covered with crumbled salt flats and atmosphere-producing factories, which make the air breathable when filtering breath masks are used. Kessel is too small to hold this artificial atmosphere, however, so much of it trails off behind the planet in the wake of its orbit. Beneath the surface of the planet live energy spiders, which spin glitterstim webs as a method of catching their prey (primarily the luminous "bogey").

Following the failure of the Emperor's attempt to destroy the Jedi enclave on Belsavis, several designers of the Eye of Palpatine were reassigned to punitive duty at Kessel. The Kessel system is adjacent to a cluster of black holes known as the Maw, which makes navigating to the planet difficult and helped glamorize the smugglers' "Kessel Run." While Kessel was under control by the Empire it was a common smuggling destination for those dealing in spice, and Han Solo once boasted he had made the Kessel Run in "less than 12 parsecs" by flying dangerously close to the Maw. Solo's life was also saved on one Kessel run by his old associate Badure. Prior to the Battle of Yavin, a bold Alliance rescue operation freed a group of Rebel POWs during a prisoner transfer operation. During the chaos surrounding the Battle of Endor, a Rybet prison official named Moruth Doole (who had secretly been supplying glitterstim to smugglers) staged a prison revolt and took control of the planet from the Empire. Several years later, after Doole's operation was dismantled, the administration of the mines was taken over by Lando Calrissian. Kessel's moon, which once held an Imperial garrison and Doole's ragtag defensive fleet (which was decimated in a battle with Admiral Daala's Star Destroyers), was utterly destroyed by a Death Star prototype from Maw Installation. Lujayne Forge, a member of the famed Rogue Squadron, was from Kessel, daughter of a man who had taught inmates under an Old Republic social program.

[Anbira Hicchoru]

Sanis already has plans for Kessel. Its the business opportunity of a lifetime.

[ReaperFett]

Dont worry, not back. I'm fixing the faults, so got some power back, so thought Id post this. Im already gone, relax ;)


FETT's OPINIONS ON THE FREE PLANETS



You'll have seen my views on Kessel. Here is the rest.


RECOMMENDED TO GO FOR


Bespin -produces gas. Gas can be used as fuel

Cilpar has ruins and temples- may be a good place to have

Munto Codru has ruins of a long lost race. May be a good aquisition

Nepe is a gas giant, in the 'Outback'. May be good as an edge lookout

Timbra Ott is also in the Kathol Outback. If you go for Nepe, go for this too.

Orellon has a race which religion is based on the Jedi. No chance of uprisings etc

Tana is near Endor (actually gone by the time of ROTJ). Id go for for its out of the areaness, as well as Ewoks to keep pilots named Janson entertained <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/image/emoticons_classic/smile.gif ALT=":)">

Xa Fel has shipyards. KDY no less

Zhar is out of the way. A gas giant with two moons, you have a good place for hidden bases and such.




RECCOMENDED TO LEAVE


Alzoc is worthless

Bseto also

Dubrillion is near asteroids- good defenses. However, near Imp space

Gandle Ott isnt worth much

Indikir is an arid rock. Wooo, that's super

Ord Mantell is Sha country. Dont bother

Swedlan isn't in Scandanavia and known for blue movies and blondes. This is more or less inhospitable, so Id not bother

[Anbira Hicchoru]

TSE still owns Monto Codru

[Darth Turbogeek]

Yog, how ab out the really heavy hardware go for Xa Fel?That seems like a real military target that the Defender, the Argus and a few other big bastards can get.

[Nichos Marr]

www.swforums.net/forum/sh...adid=11666 (http://www.swforums.net/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=11666)

Joined in Sanis' roleplay that takes place at Kessel. I'm having Nichos scout the place out. But I imagine NR transport ships can't be too far behind. I mean...there has to be SOME New Republic prisoners there.

[Master Yoghurt]

DT, Xa Fel seems like a tempting target, yes

[AmazonBabe]

They wha?? Holy crud-mania!! When did this happen? I musta blinked! Must stop blinking!! :eek

So, what planets we gonna wrestle for?
