The Day After
Episode IV, A NEW HOPE It is a period of civil war. Rebel spaceships, striking from a hidden base, have won their first victory against the evil Galactic Empire. During the battle, Rebel spies managed to steal secret plans to the Empire’s ultimate weapon, the DEATH STAR, an armored space station with enough power to destroy an entire planet. Pursued by the Empire’s sinister agents, Princess Leia races home aboard her starship, custodian of the stolen plans that can save her people and restore freedom to the galaxy….
THE DAY AFTER
With the Rebel Alliance's first major victory against the Galactic Empire ruled by the power hungry Emperor Palpatine yesterday, and the destruction of Alderaan several days ago, the Alliance has been growing in strength and influence, with worlds across the Mid Rim and Outer Rim declaring open support for the Rebellion. The admirals of the Imperial Navy have been tasked with destroying the Rebel insurrection before it escalates to a civil war unseen in Galactic History. Bounty Hunters and Pirates have taken advantage of the chaos, carving out their own small areas of space at the edge of explored space. The largest organizations such as the Black Sun have conquered entire planets, even as the Rebels and Empire take center stage.
WELCOME TO.... STAR WARS: THE DAY AFTER!
--------------------------------------------------------------[OOC STUFF]-------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you can probably tell, this will be a faction based RP. You can however play as a character running a fleet. Fleets are controlled by Pirate, Imperial, or Rebellion players. Fleets start at 12 vessels of your choosing, and you will need to keep track of them. You can divide fleets, but you cannot multiply them. Construction of new ships requires a shipyard, and shipyards can be found around most developed worlds. The major shipyards of the Empire are located at Kuat, while the Rebellion has equivalent shipyards at Mon Cal. The events of the civil war will change, such as the Rebels loosing the battle of Endor, based on player decisions. Imperial fleets start at Kuat, and rebels at Mon Cal. Please be realistic, and don't imminently go to enemy capitol worlds, follow the Hyperspace lanes in the map. If there is no lane going to a world, just go there from the closest planet with a lane attached. May the force be with you.
