So I might have taken the rebed edits a little far. I started a new game (standard victory conditions) as the Rebel Alliance, using a fresh install and Tex's galaxy config. Rebed modifications include ALL hyperdrive ratings reduced to 30% standard, all Imp cap ships cost 1 refined mineral to build and 1 maintenance point, all Imp fighters, troops and spec forces cost 1 to build and 0 to maintain, ship and troop design research counts reduced to 50% and all Imp R&D personnel research abilities set to 75 +/- 25. Here's what I've seen in the first ~30 days:

Sorry for the double post, but I felt this worthy.

 

Galantos and Empress Teta (each with one GenCore 1) has been assaulted. At this point (day 67) I can't reclaim it as I'm not comfortable risking my personnel at this early stage. In return I have managed to mass a fleet and have succeeded in freeing Fresia from the yoke of Imperial oppression. Khomm and Ebaq have joined the Alliance's cause, and Vulpter, Tarkin's Fang and Galantos all languish under the Emperor's iron fist.

So to clarify on the research: they get TIE Bombers at start, and everything else gets cut in half more or less? So, whatever was 2 is now 1, 3 is 1 (2?), 4 is 2, etc.

 

Apparently the Empire sucks at defending its worlds, if you could kick them off by day 67 with their Cheat Fleet at hand. Or maybe they just overextended themselves and/or got scared of your fighters.

 

Well, I'll look forward to updates. Hey, if you win maybe you can try it on Expert and see if you too can get 108 (or more) ISDs on the Empire's spawn, and see if you survive. :wink:

Day 220 - 2 VSDs, 1 Carrack Harrassing Unknown Sector systems

 

Day 222 - Sullustian Regiment, ATF Research Completed

 

Day 230 - Mon Cal Cruiser research complete, New Caprica bombarded, all but 1 mine, 1 refinery destroyed

 

Day 241 - Fleet 3 Fully repaired, Fresia has 2 GenCores built, moving on to Empress Teta

 

Day 247 - Neb B deployed

 

Day 253 - Recruitement done

 

Day 277 - ACY Research Complete

 

Day 367 - LNR II Research Complete

 

Day 467 - ASY Research Complete

 

Day 488 - Orbital Bombardment of Kuat by 86 Cap ship fleet

2 GenCore 1s destroyed, all troops destroyed; 12 ACY remain tempting the assault

No follow-up assault. GenCores rebuilt

 

Day 524 - Zolan freed from the yoke of Imperial Oppression! All of Doldur Sector joins Alliance Cause!

 

Day 532 - Imperial forces initiate retaliatory strike against citizens of Zolan

1 SY, 1 TF, 2 CYs, 5 mines, 2 refineries demolished as a result of orbital bombardment. Also destroyed were 2 GenCore sites and a training Mon Calamari Regiment by Imperial Fleet 169.

 

Day 534 - Further attacks on the people of the Alliance! Three Alliance Army Regiments were blasted from space by Imperial Fleet 46 while guarding the peaceful mining system of Fondor.

 

Day 536 - Mining system of Chandrila Assaulted

 

Day 546 - Facility Research Exhausted

 

Day 548 - Peaceful system of Druidia beaten into submission! Imperial Fleet 144 has bombarded the adult education facilities located on Druidia, leaving millions of instructional and support staff unemployed. Two planetary shield generators and twelve advanced training facilities are now no more than rubble. Instructors Crix Madine and Carlist Rieekan were evacuated to an undisclosed location when the fleet was detected in orbit around the system. They were able to make it through the attack unscathed.

 

Day 576 - Vulcan senselessly razed! The planet Vulcan fell victim to the Imperial Navy's 144th Fleet today when Admiral Daala ordered her Star Destroyers and support craft to obliterate another Alliance system's economy. The sector's source of pleasure yachts and personal space craft have fallen victim to Daala's scorched earth policy. Master Craftsbeings Gial Ackbar, Wedge Antilles and Adar Tallon were working to design a new frigate for use by planetary police forces to combat space pirates. All three have survived today's attack with out injury. Facilities lost in today's attack include nine advanced shipyards and two planetary shield generators. Three additional advanced shipyards were lost when the 144th fleet began their blockade. Two Mon Calamari pleasure cruisers under construction were also destroyed. Sources are unsure at this time if Vulcan Cruise Lines will receive any compensation from their insurance company after the attack, but early indicators do not look favorable.

So far they haven't sent a fleet to visit my HQ. I can't be 100% certain they haven't sent probe droids to visit the system.

 

I've tried my hand at some news briefs/propaganda, but I'm finding I'm more of a facts and figures guy. Let me know which you prefer.

I would just build a few hyperspace trap ships and as many a-wing/b-wing as you can stock at rebel hq and just let AI find you.

Now that I think about it, it seems to fit that Mitth would be the person to try something crazy like this: 1 material, 1 maintenance point per enemy capital ship 8O . And for an actual game :lol: If the AI wasn't so dumb, you shouldn't have lasted a couple hundred days tops. But, it's the Rebellion AI; you should be able to beat it no matter what. It only takes more time when you bury your opponent with huge amounts of resources.

 

It seems to me that you should lose almost all fleet battles just based on the number of opposing ships (unless the AI flubs this as well). If the AI would rather have 1000's of fleets of 10 ships, instead of 10's of fleets with 100's of ships, you could actually win the majority of battles with a minimal number of fleets with a large quantity of ships. Also, probably the only way to win is going to be through attrition. Just keep sabotaging every enemy mine or refinery (both not both to save time), and eventually the enemy will run out of resources and materials for his war machine.

 

Keep the game play coming, I'm definitely interested in how this unfolds :D

Finally, after years of hard work I am the Supreme Sith Warlord! Muwhahahaha!! What?? What do you mean "there's only two of us"?

With everything only costing 1, I don't think taking out mines will be an effective strategy. Factories/shipyards are probably a better option. Or personnel; if Mitth can get ahead on operatives, it would give him a numerical edge in one area of the war.

 

Even if the AI has 1000's of small fleets, Mitth won't win every battle. The AI will just retreat repeatedly. Technically, that is a win, but nothing is accomplished. When he goes on the offensive, those fleets will roll up into fewer, larger, fleets. Unless he has interdictors, anyway.

What I can't decide, Tex, is if you're referencing my connection to Thrawn, or if you're saying I, personally, am just that crazy. Please clarify.

 

Aaaaaand, UPDATE!

 

Day 595 - Neimodia bombarded. Losses suffered from Fleet 35: half a dozen troop regiments of various types and 2 gencore 1s

 

Day 621 - Troop Research Complete

 

Day 622 - Death Star 1 arrives at Empress Teta

 

Day 656 - Death Star 2 Arrives at Duros

 

Day 658 - Alliance to Restore the Republic defends Duros form Imperial Superweapon! The Alliance Third Fleet has successfully broken the Imperial blockade of the peaceful planet of Duros today. The brave pilots of Yellow Group were able to eliminate the planet destroying capabilities of the Empire's Death Star 2. All Alliance worlds mourn the loss of the 5,402 lives of the crew of Ardent, a former luxury liner pressed into service after the attacks in the Deep Core Sector almost a year-and-a-half ago. Popular support for the Alliance has increased across the Corellian Sector as a result of Duros's defense.

 

Day 664 - Assault of Drall! The Imperial Navy has executed a retaliatory strike against the planet Drall. One can only assume this to be the Empire's response the the neutralization of their weapon of mass destruction last week.

 

Day 680 - New Plympto liberated; Saccoria, Talus, Corfai, Corellia, Selonia, Tralus, Nubia, Drall UIMO

 

Day 684 - Tralus Liberated

 

Day 686 - Saccoria Liberated

 

Day 688 - Corfai liberated

 

Day 690 - Nubia liberated

 

Day 691 - New Plympto Assaulted, Drall Liberated.

 

I can't keep up with the 43 fleets the Empire has in the Corellian Sector right now. Granted, a lot of them are 1-3 ships and many of those are nothing more than a Galleon or Carrack. It looks like the AI is shaking up their fleet make-up in the sector. I've got half a dozen fleets under construction throughout the galaxy, but only one I trust to be within sight of this much of the Imperial Navy. As such, my plan right now is to fly back and forth, bombarding trooper regiments before the Imps can get GenCores built. I'm not sure yet which of us will abandon the status quo first. Eventually they have to run out of currently manufactured troops, so maybe I'll succeed sooner rather than later.

 

Day 696 - Admiral Daala still seems to be mucking about with her 86 cap ship Fleet 144 in the Unknown Region. Bob is now under Imperail blockade.

 

Day 697 - Corfai Assaulted, Talus liberated. Yag'Dhul (Tapani) under blockade.

 

Day 699 - Othala (Unknown) under blockade.

 

Day 701 - Battle at New Plympto

Imperial Navy: 5 Dreads, 6 VSDs, 6 Carracks, 16 TIE Fighters, 1 TIE Bomber, 1 Stoormtrooper Regiment

System: no GenCores, 3 Imperial Fleet Regiments, 3 Stormtrooper Regiments

Battle:

18 X-Wings sent after cap ships; 17 X-Wings, 3 A-Wings sent after fighters

All task forces sent against one cap ship after another, retasked when guns were knocked out

Losses:

Alliance Navy: 1 Neb-B, 2 Gunships, 9 X-Wings, 1 A-Wing; 3 Neb-Bs, 1 Carrier Damaged, don't remember what was damaged previously

Imperial Navy: 1 Carrack, 5 VSDs, all fighters, bomber; 1 Dread damaged

 

Day 702 - New Plympto liberated; Corfai, Selonia, Corellia UIMO

Selonia only system in sector with GenCores; Duros, Saccoria being built

 

Day 702 - Galantos (Deep Core) under blockade.

 

Day 718 - Saccoria (Corellia) Assaulted, 1 Gencore 2 built before assault

 

Day 734 - Saccoria (Corellia) liberated through sabotage of garrisons; production of second GenCore 2 resumed.

I have just begun production of a colonization fleet (6 bulk transports and 60 Mon Cal regiments) and will be colonizing the outer rim with the intent of maybe being able to get away from this war of attrition that is frustrating me to no end. [rant]This is not the way Rebellion is supposed to work.[/rant]

 

As a side note, while writing updates I save before I start and don't pay attention to anything that occurs while I write. When the update is done and posted I usually quit outright. Tonight I was interrupted by Daala's fleet showing up at Vulcan (Unknown) where I have my shipyards. The Empire has Interdictor Cruisers now. I wanted to :cry:. I'll link the screen grab. (That's 106 Cap ships sitting across from my 2 Dreads. I would say at least half of those 106 are either ISDs or VSDs. The one on the bottom row, all the way to the left, that's Interdictor Cruiser 4.) My fleets are soooooo dead. If anyone wants my RebEd .reb files let me know and I'll email them to you. I'm all for sharing the fun.

Day 760 - Assualt on Tralus (Corellian)

 

Day 781 - Assault on Drall (Corellian)

 

Day 786 - Orbital Bombardment of Chawza (Borderlands) - 1 refinery, 3 trooper regiments destroyed

 

Day 791 - Tralus liberated

 

Day 851 - Borleias (Coruscant) liberated

 

Day 864 - Liberator Cruiser Research Complete (8 of 11)

 

Day 914 - Orbital Bombardment of Fondor (Tapani) - several Mon Cal regiments destroyed

 

Day 915 - Rampa (Corporate) Liberated, Thrawn evaded capture leaving the system

 

Day 920 - Assault on Tralus (Corellian)

 

Day 921 - Borleias (Coruscant) liberated via Master Skywalker's sabotage missions

 

Day 921 - Fresia (Deep Core: Shipyard and Ship Design Research Facility) under Imperial blockade by Death Star 1 (and attached fleet)

 

Day 922 - Chandrila (Coruscant) liberated; All Soruscant Sector Systems support Alliance

 

Day 925 - Imperial Troops stationed on Bilbrini (Coruscant): 56 Army, 21 Dark, 23 Storm; 2 GenCore 1s, 1 LNR 2

 

Day 926 - Kuat (Kuat: Construction Yards) under blockade. The Empire seems to be going for the 'blockade all manufacturing systems' approach. This could get interesting.

 

Day 927 - Blibringi (Coruscant) liberated. 1 Neb-B, 1 X-wing, 1 A-Wing destroyed by LNR 2

 

Day 927 - Altair IV (Unknown: Construction Yards) under blockade

 

Day 927 - Fleet orbiting Fresia gone, research resuming

 

Day 929 - Mytus (Corporate) liberated

 

Day 934 - Tepasi (Kuat: Shipyards) under blockade. I'm moving fleets under construction to no systems every few days, so as not to get caught by an Interdictor. It's getting to be rather stressful. I want to minimize time spent between when the ship is built and the time I can task it somewhere, so don't want to deploy them to the outer rim, but I don't want them destroyed as soon as they're built. Maybe I'll just suck it up and send them away. I'll let you know if I send them out.

Day 956 - Assault on Nubia (Corellian)

 

Day 959 - Velusia (Coruscant) liberated

 

Day 962 - Averam - (Coruscant) liberated. Intelligence indicates a fleet over Coruscant I can't tackle at this point in the game, including an Interdictor. I am returning to the Corellian Sector to re-liberate those systems.

 

Day 965 - Assault on Saccoria (Corellian)

 

Day 973 - CC-9600 Frigate research complete (9 of 11)

 

Day 975 - Talus (Corellian) assaulted

 

Day 980 - Abregado (Tapani) liberated. I know I said I was going elsewhere, but I thought I'd go for easier resources first.

 

Day 982 - Bassadro liberated

 

Day 988 - Mrlsst liberated

 

Day 989 - Assault on Bilbringi (Coruscant)

 

Day 989 - Thyferra (Tapani) liberated

What I can't decide, Tex, is if you're referencing my connection to Thrawn, or if you're saying I, personally, am just that crazy. Please clarify.

I'm saying that you personally are that crazy :P:lol:8):wink:

 

Maybe "fool hardy" would be more accurate? Or is it "fool hearty"? :?

Finally, after years of hard work I am the Supreme Sith Warlord! Muwhahahaha!! What?? What do you mean "there's only two of us"?

I think after my current game, I will try this myself.

 

In my game, we just got interdictors. Not sure what will happen with that; definitely changes the rules of war. I'm interested to see if you can keep your new construction in the core or are forced to send them out for self-preservation.

@Tex: Merriam-Webster says it's 'foolhardy.'

 

@Xan: Let me know if you want my rebed files. I'd be happy to share them.

 

General update: I've had a busy week so far, and haven't had time to play for a few days. I'll (hopefully) get back into it in the next day or so.

Xan, PM Tex your email address and ask him for the files. He's happy to share, or he was as of a couple months ago.

 

AAAAAAAAAANNNNNND, UPDATE:

Day 1002 - Tralus liberated (Corellian)

 

Intel places Coruscant ripe for the picking. Will investigate further.

 

Day 1004 - Corfai liberated (Corellian)

 

Day 1008 - Tarkin's Fang (Deep Core) declares neutrality, Alliance fleet leaves orbit and Tarkin's Fang joins Alliance

 

Coruscant proved to be a trap. It is unclear now if I had faulty Intel, or if a fleet was moved in after the fact.

 

Day 1025 - Assault on Corfai (Corellian)

 

It occurs to me, I could strip every Imperial system of mines and refineries, and they would be able to hold the system until I finally got around to sabotaging or bombarding their troops. This adds a whole new facet to the game.

 

Day 1042 - Assault on Tralus (Corellian)

 

Day 1053 - Assault on Saccoria (Corellian)

 

Day 1065 - Bilbringi (Coruscant) liberated

 

Day 1072 - Bilbringi (Coruscant) assaulted

 

Day 1074 - Assault on Alderaan (Kuat); 1 Mon Cal regiment defeated 1 Imp Army, 5 Stormtrooper and 3 Imp Fleet regiments; system had (on more than 1 occasion) had 3 mines built and shipped when Imperial fleet entered the system. I think Alderaan may have become a staging point for the Imperial Navy, and my having troops there was seen as a threat.

 

Day 1088 - Assault on Balmorra (Kuat): system resources limited to mines and refineries

 

Day 1095 - Assault on Talus (Corellian)

 

I have decided to scrap all mines and refineries on systems lacking dual shield generators under blockade, so as to deny them to the Empire. Once proper shielding is installed I will build more mines/refineries to replace my losses.

 

Day 1102 - Dauntless Cruiser research complete (10 of 11)

 

All new production has halted. I need to work on a refined mineral surplus

 

Day 1107 - Assault on Nubia (Corellian), no facilities of any sort on system

 

Day 1122 - Assault on Drall (Corellian)

 

Day 1124 - Assault on Carida (Kuat)

 

Day 1134 - Balmorra (Kuat) liberated

 

Day 1145 - Talus (Corellian) liberated

 

Day 1146 - Tralus (Corellian) liberated

 

Day 1147 - Saccoria (Corellian) liberated

 

Day 1148 - Corfai (Corellian) liberated

 

Day 1149 - New Plympto (Corellian) liberated

 

Day 1150 - Nubia (Corellian) liberated

 

Day 1153 - Drall (Corellian) liberated. Selonia and Corellia seem to be closed to me, until I can create some maintenance shortfalls for my enemies.

 

Production resumed, focusing on GenCore 2s, resources and (to a far lesser extent) fleet production

 

Day 1160 - Assault on Balmorra (Kuat)

 

Day 1165 - Battle at Carida losses: 1 a-wing, 4 b-wings vs. 1 ISD, 5 VSDs, lots of fighters, 4 interceptors, 4 bombers

 

Day 1165 - Carida (Kuat) liberated

 

Day 1168 - Saccoria (Corellian) assaulted

 

Day 1178 - Battle of Arkania lost 1 a-wing, 22 b-wings from fleet 3

 

Day 1178 - Arkania (Kuat) liberated, Villar, Orloc Captured

 

Day 1179 - Assault on Corfai (Corellian)

 

Day 1187 - Assault on Velusia (Coruscant)

 

Day 1201 - Research Exhausted! Bulwark Battlecruiser Research Complete!

[side note]I haven't seen one of these in YEARS! I've been playing Reloaded for so long, I look forward to seeing the Bulwark in action again.[/side note]

 

Day 1203 - Saccoria (Corellian) liberated

 

So I find that I'm not used to having so little in the way of refined minerals. As I recall, in previous rebed modifications I made all production half-price both to build and maintain, because I do (despite the general impression I've left around the forum as being strictly Rebel) occasionally play as the Imps, and up until now I've been lazy in my attempts at creating large fleet battles. As a result I've gone with a rebed edit to be used by both sides. I have actually done a better job of getting big fleets from the AI with this method than all previous attempts. I think I may have found my next attempt at large scale fleet engagements: no ship production research, both sides 1 RM & 1 MP for cap ships and 1 & 0 for fighters. :twisted:

Fleet 27 - 8 A-Wings

At this point the Empire has a couple big fleets floating around trying to avoid Maintenance Shortfalls. They have 1 SY, 5 ASY and 1 refinery on Ambria, which, as you can see here is their only system. I have mines or refineries under production for all the unsettled systems. I now have two options: create a bigger fleet to take out their remaining system, or wait them out. My shipyards are working on number 1, and I'm holding to option 2 while option 1 resolves.

I want to get his diplomacy skills up some before sending him back for more training.

 

Day 1549 – Headquarters arrives at Nelvaan (Arkanis). Fleet showed up over starting capital 141 days ago, so HQ was moved across the galaxy.

 

Day 1581 – Reinforced Fleet 3 departs Kashyyyk (Borderlands) for Ambria (Borderlands)

Imperials: Total loss

 

Day 1583 – All troops stationed on Ambria have been bombarded. 4 ASY and 1 refinery remain. Large fleet was inbound, too big for me to tackle without significant losses. I opted to fight another day. I know of 450 MP worth of liabilities for the Empire, with no only 1 refinery to their name. I plan to wait for maintenance shortfalls to cripple them.

 

Day 1584 – Intelligence reports Ambria (Borderlands) has declared neutrality. Diplomacy will NOT commence as I would like to be able to find the Imperial personnel tasked to conduct their own diplomatic missions.

 

Day 1619 – Jedi Training mission complete: Borsk and Bren are Jedi Students; Roget is now a Jedi Knight. New Jedi Training mission commences

 

Day 1700 – Borsk and Bren remain Students despite Force growth. Roget experiences no growth. The students will resume training. Roget will be returning to the galaxy at large

 

Day 1719 – Vader, Palpatine and several other Imperial personnel on 268 cap ship fleet (with 397 TIEs, Brandei Commanding, no troops and 71 personnel [mostly spec. forces]) in Coruscant Sector.

Day 1765 – Owing to my impatience, Mon Mothma and Leia have joined the diplomatic mission to Ambria.

 

Day 1770 – Bren and Borsk elevated to Knighthood. As I don’t have a transport nearby, training will reconvene.

 

Day 1771 – 87 ship fleet with 168 TIEs wandering around Corellian Sector, 3 personnel (unsure who)

 

Day 1779 – Wedge earns 1 point of diplomacy!

 

Day 1788 – Abmria (Borderlands) joins

 

Day 1835 – Screed and Spec. Forces in Corellian Sector Imperial fleet

 

Day 1857 – Borsk Fey’lya is now a Jedi Master. Wedge and Bren will commence additional training.

Day 1931 – Velusia (Coruscant) leveled; no system resources or energy available on Velusia, Corulag, Chandrila or Bilbringi.

 

Day 1948 – Jedi Training mission complete. No Rank changes, despite Wedge’s growth. Will conduct further training with Wedge only.

 

Day 1949 – Anaxes (Coruscant) leveled

 

Day 1954 – I am walking away to take my dog for a walk. Game is set on very slow with message window open. Let’s see what happens…

 

Day 1982 – Returned from the walk: Borleias bombarded now has no materials or energy, Capital Ship (Dauntless) repaired, Chandrila bombarded and Bilbringi bombarded. Lots of fighter squadrons deployed to Empress Teta (closest Deep Core system to Coruscant Sector). Popular support is suffering due to the constant bombardments (lately they’ve been to eliminate trooper regiments). I will be taking Drayson and Master Fey’lya with restoring Alliance support.

 

Day 2006 – Ruan (Coruscant) leveled (those two refineries were apparently crucial to my cause…)

 

Day 2015 – Jedi Training mission complete. Wedge is now a Jedi Student. Training will resume with Bren only.

Alliance Fleet

Task Force 1: 4 9600s, 4 Bulwarks, 8 Dauntless Cruisers

Red Group: 303 X-Wings

Blue Group: 302 X-Wings

Green Group: 480 A-Wings

Gold Group: 386 B-Wings

System: Commander Snunb

Imperial Fleet

89 VSD, 22 ISD, 1 Interdictor, 3 Escort Carrier, 34 Dreads, 77 Carracks, 8 Lancers, 193 Fighters, 21 Bombers, 106 Interceptors, 18 Defenders (I may have missed or added 1-2 of each fighter type. My eyes really wanted to give out after all that scrolling.) Emperor Palpatine, Darth Vader, Ozzel, Commander Brandei, Thrawn, Daala, Pter Thanas and lots of Spec Forces are embarked upon Imperial Dreadnaught Harbinger.

 

Orders

My plan today is to send out my A- and X-Wings to work on their fighters. The B-Wings and capital ships will be held back (no orders) at first. I want to chip away at that Interceptor screen before letting my B-Wings loose, and my capital ships tasked with eliminating enemy fighters didn’t make it to the engagement before the Empire’s fighters were destroyed. The other benefit is that my B-Wings will have time to group. All task forces and fighter groups are set to surround their targets. I’ve tried both “Surround” and “Stand off” tactics, and prefer surround. So, with no further ado, let the battle begin.

 

As it turns out, I have so many fighters I can’t zoom in close enough to tell the difference between Carracks and Lancers. I can’t find my nav points either.

 

First shots have been exchanged. Imperial fighters are bypassing my fighters with what I assume are orders to target my B-Wings. Task forces 4-7 are being tasked with the destruction of the enemy’s fighters at this time.

 

The Imperial fighters have engaged my B-Wings. Gold Group is released to target Imperial Capital Ships in an effort to get them near Task Forces 4-7. They will be directed to escort one of those Cap Ships to keep the Imperial fighters in range.

 

All Alliance vessels have now been tasked with fighter elimination. Task forces 1-3 are slowly making their way to the engagement zone. Imperial advance ships (Carracks) are nearly to the halfway point between starting zones.

 

All Imperial fighters are destroyed (Alliance fighters remaining: Red: 302, Blue: 272, Green: 457, Gold: 264). Imperial Carracks have passed the halfway point. These vessels are now my targets.

 

Vanguard Carracks destroyed, targeting Lancers. When Lancers are destroyed I will revert to being lazy and target capital ships.

 

Lancers destroyed. Task Force 1 has been destroyed. All Imperial Star Destroyers have been destroyed. Task Force 4 has been destroyed. 4 ships remain in Task Force 2, but are all disabled. Task force 3 is down to 1 Mon Cal (disabled), 3 Dreads and the Bulk Cruiser remain undamaged. Task force 5 is down the 2 Neb-Bs. Task Forces 6 and 7 are intact. 1 Escort Carrier has damaged shields.

 

Task Forces 5 & 3 have been destroyed. Task Force 7 keeps loosing ships. Fighters are going to be tasked individually from this point on. I’m starting with the ships in the lead, and will work my way back, hoping to preserve my CC-7700s.

 

Task Force 7 has been destroyed. There are some stragglers in the Imperial Fleet picking off those of my ships which are remaining behind for whatever reason. Plan was successful! CC-7700s survived the battle without firing a shot or being shot at.

 

Outcome

Alliance: 1 Corvette, 4 Escort Carriers, 2 Liberators, 1 Dauntless, 2 7700s and 1 Assault Frigate survived (Corvette, 1 Carrier, 7700s undamaged); 452 A-Wings, 203 B-Wings, 571 X-Wings remain

Imperials: Fleet completely lost. Palpy, Vader, Ozzel, Brandei, Thrawn and Daala Captured. Pter Thanas killed.

 

The yoke of Imperial tyranny has been removed. The Rebel Alliance has driven out the Imperial oppressors and scattered them to the distant corners of the galaxy.

 

United in victory, the courageous warriors of the Rebel Alliance celebrate the birth of a new era. The immense task of rebuilding the galaxy lies before them.

 

The pursuit of peace and justice is never complete. The leaders of the Alliance must remain alert. Elements of the dark side are always present. Even now there may be a new dark force rising.

 

While that was one hell of a challenge, I'm never doing that again. If anyone wants my RebEd files get me your email address and I would be happy to share them. Firsts for me this time around: blowing up the Death Star, blowing up a second DS, not getting Leia to learn her heritage, spending more than 2000 days in game (without intentionally stalling to level up Luke/Leia or fill every system energy point), having nearly all my capital ships destroyed but only losing <17% of my fighters, nearly losing all my capital ships in a fleet battle I chose to make happen, seeing enemy fleets made up of more than 75 capital ships, opponent decimating my systems (to the point that they no longer have system energy), I feel like there were a couple others which I can no longer remember... I think you should definitely give this a shot.

 

Questions, anyone???

Apologies again for the double post, but I had an update, and Xan didn't reply. So there.

 

Day 1545 – Jedi Training mission complete: Wedge, Borsk raised to Trainee; Bren, Roget raised to Student. Wedge (Diplomacy Rating 0) tasked to Nirauan (Mid Rim, former capital) to bring popular support back to 100% after HQ was moved. I want to get his diplomacy skills up some before sending him back for more training.

 

Questions, anyone???

Sorry... :?

 

Why are you bothering to up Wedge's diplomacy? Does that impact his Jedi training missions or something?

 

That battle... that's huge. Bigger than any I ever had. I think I may try this. And right after I do, I'm going to lower all costs to 1/1 for both sides to get even bigger fleet engagements! :twisted:

Got it. I'll go through it all when I have time.
