I wouldn't really call it a multifront war from my understanding of the RP. It's more like the battered, but substantial remains of the CIS along with a fledgling Rebellion, against the Empire.
Granted, this Empire is likely going to face a much more difficult time in establishing itself early on, but it certainly has the upper hand as of the RPs start.
In the last three years the CIS have recovered from the events of ROTS. The Empire is still in the phase of transitioning. The CIS and Empire are matched Navy wise with the Empire having the greater military.
