Dread leads from the shadows, while Malevolence and the Kaleesh are the face of the CIS.


No? I mean, the Empire rigged KDY and Fondor to explode-those are far more important to their war effort than any droid factories. Unparalleled facilities means more vital to destroy instead of surrendering, rather than less.

So, then, wouldn't that mean that there is a good chance Geonosis was not set to blow?

Nah- your argument was that Geonosis was too important to blow up, but my point was that the Emperor blew up even more important facilities. The chances of them not destroying a facility less useful to them to deny it to an enemy are low.

Regardless, it wouldn't take too long to get Geonosis up and running. A year at most. And, the entire planet is effectively one big facility, so there isn't much you can do aside from blowing up the planet to disable all the facilities. Sure, a major amount could be taken out, but all? No way. And again, you underestimate the ingenuity of the Geonosians.

Sure, I'm certain you can get a few facilities up and running in a year. Not all, but then we're talking a modest amount of droid production, instead of all the droids in the universe. Not to mention the raw materials for those droids will have to be drawn from somewhere. I get Geonosians are good at manufacturing- so are five dozen other random races in the galaxy. Geonosis is still a single world amongst countless hundreds of thousands.

A year? I'd say that would be enough to get the bare essentials up but fully operational? You'd have to be moving so much raw materials within that year you'd attract every faction and pirate to you within months. Not to mention the financial cost of such a move. I couldn't imagine the destroyed factories being recovered, it would probably take longer to dig out and rebuild the destroyed structures, likely buried under the caverns or spires they hid them in than to simply start from scratch elsewhere.

http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb2010 ... m_logo.png
Appearance:

Personality: Strong, iron-willed, ever cunning ruthless opportunist. Despite these "negative" traits he still retains some sense of honor which he gained during his service on the CIS. He is also between the path of deceit and honesty, he tries hard to be honest but due to his ruthless cunning nature he gets his interests first above all else.
Many regard being close with Imperial hard-liners but he isn't so fanatic as they are and he isn't much supportive of the Human High Culture. Also a renown torturer.....
Biography:
Not much worthing of Varamyr childhood other than he hailes from a small workers family originated from Jabiim, where he stayed long enough to develop memories of his homeworld. He and his families left during their youth for Fondor where he spent his formative years while his father worked on the Fondor Shipwrights. Ever since he saw his father working on starships as a kid his only ambition was only one; become a pilot but the world is never fair.

Being a handsome man in his youth had it's own advantages. He managed to marry the only daughter of a wealthy upper-middle class merchant with ties to the Fondor most prominent family at the time; the Yevanny Clann. The Patriach of the Clann, Uzbek Yevanny had given him the pronounce "zi" as a sign of his upbringing to the Fondorian lower nobility. Thanks to these connections he managed to enter the Raithal Academy through falsefied paperwork as he was 15. He stayed there for a year as did all the other students. An undistinguished graduate although he managed to gain political power through the back door far more easily instead on the open. During his career on the Judicial Forces he served to Trade Federation space, the Judicial Forces where nothing more than broken joke of a "fleet" which cause many underpaid officers turn into bribes in order to survive.

Varamyr's position gained the fame and the gratitude of the lower echelons of the Trade Federation council for turning a blind eye on their operations in exchange for political upbringing or credits. Bussiness was safe and sound until the Seperatist Crisis which affected his homeworld Jabiim heavily as the two factions were on the brink on the civil war: The Nationalists who advocated independence and the Loyalists who advocated loyalty to the Republic. When war broke out his loyalties were clear. Blood or Honor? he questioned himself tiresly. He chose Blood over "Honor" as there was no honour serving the Judicial Forces due to his disgust for having to turn to bribes in order to literally survive his family. Like most of the officers they joined the CIS armed forces, thanks to his influential friends to the Trade Federation who had risen up the ranks thanks to him; he gained the support and requested droid forces being sent to Jabiim to assist the Nationalists against the Loyalists and the Republic forces led by General Obi-Wan Kenobi.

There for the first time in his life, he had distinguish himself on the field of battle rather than on space where he had trained into. At first many thought Jabiim would fall to the hands of the Republic but thanks to the Nationalists continued fierce resistance they took over the planet in the name of the CIS. Thanks to this victory he was promoted to rank of captain while he created his own personal militia; the Jabiim's First. He continue to distinguish himself during the war until Palpantine took over during the late of the Clone Wars proclaiming the New Order. He gave amnesty in exchange turning to the CIS; Varamyr didn't even hesistated on turning on them due the war was inevitebly lost.

Under the command of the Baron Merillion Tarko he took over Bridge City in Cato Namoidia using former POW's, battle droids, Kuatis and of course Jabiims as the initial strike force so that they cause havoc and panic to remaining CIS command as they noticed their former allies turned on them in exchange for their liniancy apparently. During the battle he threw away clone trooper soldiers lives in exchange of his own as he still had and has a disdain for his former enemies. Varamyr killed many of his former accomplises in order to clear up his name and make a fresh start.

After the war had ended, many young men were sent again for re-training to the Imperial Academies due to Judicial Forces insuffiecient training, the years passed quickly but peacefully. It was there he was taught the New Order's teaching and the Human High Culture. Although he wasn't very firm believer of them due his previous service on the CIS but he did believe some species are certainly inferior to humans; being a Jabiimi this hardly surpirsing.

There wasn't nothing to note for his service on the Empire except the battle of Kamino where he personally overseed the attacks on Timira City & Tipoca City during the anti-trooper movement, the planet's biggest cities and center of their cloning facilities. To make sure his the clone troops won't hesitate shooting their "kin" he followed a very ruthless rout on doing so. Executing every soldier for the slightest hesitation if he shown, when the battle was long over. He ordered his clone troopers to execute themselves the anti-trooper clones so that he can bring them in line; but he mostly done this unspeakable action due to his hatred to clones.
He briefly served under Lord Vader, thanks to him he gained quick promotions inevitably gaining the title of Moff before being transfered elsewhere so that he can remain alive. The battle of Endor is over and with it chaos fallowed all across the Empire. Various warlord and rebellious movements had sparked out quickly. His own forces were scattered among various worlds such as Kashyyk, Bespin, Naboo, Utapau and Tatooine. He knew he couldn't hold them and fight his enemies at the same time. To make sure his enemies won't gain the upper hand he abonded all these worlds so that the others can takeover if they wished but they couldn't and he knew it. But he deliberatly let the worlds fall to CIS hands rather than to the Rebels or other warlords.

Varamyr under "Empress" Isard orders got to his adoptive world of Fondor where he met Grand Admiral Zsinj and had him executed alongside with Admiral Devian Ennix and his supporters while absorbing their military elements whch were mostly ground units; while Isard was "cleaning up" the Moff council back in Coruscant. Yet he still doesn't know what happened back there unfortunatelt for him, thankfully though his actions leaving various worlds without Imperial garrissons will prove crucial for rebellious takeovers and maybe... just maybe they won't forget that jesture of goodwill. For now he controls most of Zsinj's territory while the rest has fallen to rebellious movements, mostly to the CIS.

His final act before taking command over Isard's Fondor loyalists was making a visit to Kessel and bombing the asteroid's prison centers. Much to the disgust of almost everyone.

On rebuilding factories: Use worker droids. Never sleep, get tired, only do maintenance breaks. Literally build a few of those, have them build more and more until trillions are had. Money is irrelevant, droids need no pay, raw resources can be turned directly into more droids, which are in turned mined by droids.

It's droids all the way down.

Sure, you can say the same thing about slaves. But you can't build droids out of rock- you need usable metals, metals for circuitry, energy to run foundries, energy to run droids, capital to purchase machinery or buy the droids that build more droids. The only thing a droid foundry doesn't need that humans do is downtime, and even droids need maintenance, time to recharge, etc.

Droid factories are good, but most factories in the galaxy are automated anyway. Any argument for the ease of a repair of a droid factory can be made for a non-droid factory.

As far as the Chiss, no, not really. You're confusing the Empire of the Hand with the Chiss Ascendancy, which are distinctly different entities. Plus, yknow, the OP lists the Chiss as their own faction, so there's that.

Money is the most relevant thing when it comes to amassing an industry on the scale I imagine you want. Resources will have to be constantly supplied, the equipment to mine your own. You could argue that you will use droids to mine it but you actually need the resource rich worlds which are most definitely under the control of the Empire or any other factions. How you go about obtaining the resources will determine how long you are left to grow before the other factions come to try stamp you out.

Resources will have to be constantly supplied, the equipment to mine your own. You could argue that you will use droids to mine it but you actually need the resource rich worlds which are most definitely under the control of the Empire or any other factions. How you go about obtaining the resources will determine how long you are left to grow before the other factions come to try stamp you out.

There is a certain group who wants an alliance with the CIS you know.

It's droids all the way down.



Chiss are a subfaction of the Empire, in my view at least.

Dixmix, two things. Stormtroopers wouldn't be deployed as run of the mill enforcers- that's what local garrisons and the IA are for. They're shock trooper and front line combatants, not policemen. Also a Moff is responsible for a whole sector, some of which are hundreds of worlds. Governor =\= Moff.

Yeah, I was a little put off by the storm trooper thing. As a clone, that's racist you put us in that position.
