First day back in direct Imperial service. Apparently they're taking names from the "tempting fate" pot in regards to their capital ships now - the destroyer I'm stationed off of is called the Invincible. Not a whole lot unusual happened - rebels, separatists, they build the same kinds of bases. Empire, Republic, same procedures for dealing with them.

The unusual part was on my side. This "Omega Squad" consists of an insufferable blue-skinned officer with glowing red eyes, a trandoshan, some kind of insect thing which can turn invisible, two human males who were named by terrible mothers, and a Corellian smuggler who fancies himself a grenadier. By my count, I'm the only actual Imperial - the others are either out for personal glory or treating this like an odd job.

Maybe it's a good thing I'm self-taught - had the honor of witnessing the performance of thirteen graduates of the Imperial Infantry Academy. The instructors there should be shot.

The rebels fought curiously - though they were outnumbered and outgunned, they refused to surrender and instead fought to the bitter end. I haven't seen that behavior since the Clone Wars.

-Closing entry.

Operation Strike Fear, Mission 1
(This was a test mission, and went relatively well. I had a few problems/mistakes, but they are easily fixable).
The mission was simple. Get in, blow the base up, get out. And that happened. Sara D'Uthin was easily the most successful member of Omega Squad, as all of the other members either did averagely well, or their successes were really failures (like that massive explosion of the armory).
Oh, and Michael Moonwalker almost TPK'd in the second room of the base. Good job, buddy.

XP payouts- listed above.
Credit payouts- 500C for everyone except JC, who gets 250C
Weapons awarded from scavenging-
Kr'kilixt Vaouon: 1 DH-17 Blaster Rifle, 1 DH-17 Blaster Pistol
Sara, Luke, Morkev: 1 DH-17 Blaster Pistol

New weapons will be available in the shop:
DH-17 Blaster Rifle (Cross between DLT-20A and E-11)
Detpack (SW equivalent of C4)
Shotgun (I wonder what it could be!)
Vibroshiv (A Vibroknife installed into the glove plate of your armor)
 
I thought vibroshivs were already a thing and that they were supposed to cost 200C.

I WANT MY MONEY BACK.
 
two human males who were named by terrible mothers .... By my count, I'm the only actual Imperial - the others are either out for personal glory or treating this like an odd job.

Hey, my guy is an actual Imperial! Not disputing the naming though. :p

Vibroknife =/= Vibroshiv.

All of you are smelly humans to me. :p
 
Log 214

Finally finished with the first contracted mission with the empire. They had me join Omega squad on the Invincible, a far more common vessel than the grand name would imply, "only" a standard star destroyer.

If Omega squad is anything to judge the state of the imperial army by then it is a sad state indeed. Out of the 24 of us only 8 are worthy of note besides myself. We have a trandosian who seems content to continue the stereotype of being a grumpy and generally unpleasant fellow, beyond his race not much of him was memorable besides being a decent shot.

One of the female stormtroopers was rather memorable for being more talkative and useful than the usual rank and file but that sets the bar rather low, she seems to have become rather overconfident as a result and seemed to think it was her place to interrogate me about the state of my grenades (Note to self: make sure grenades are up to imperial standard) when it was obvious that she had no extensive experience in them herself what with the poor form she had (lack of good arm perk).

Beyond that we have a clumsy bug who some how managed to trip over waist high cover while cloaked. The Chiss second in command was rather stuffy but seemed to be a good sport with getting his minions to help me barricade doors that were not on our path and did not seem above sharing cover with the rank and file. Beyond that we have three other humans who are not rather notable except for one commando who seemed intent on killing us all with his poor throws once again adding to my theory that grenades should not be handed to those incapable of using them, he also seemed to be a little on the dimmer side when he had to ask why I was carrying all my grenades on my person.

But out of all of them the award of Most Idiotic has to go to the commander of the mission. He randomly decided to execute a trooper who's gun had jammed, which is ridiculous as they are still useful as other targets for the rebels to shoot at. He also seemed to find it intelligent to barge strait into a room which was not checked for hostiles and only survived due to the incompetence of the rebels.

The mission was to raid a rebel base and it seemed to go rather smoothly until the end when a stray rocket hit the power source causing the base to explode. The only reason I could imagine that the empire is having difficulty with these rebels is that they seem to be slightly more competent and brave than the stormtroopers. Slightly.

Anyways no one seemed to have heard of that damned albino twilek with one head tail so no progress has been made on finding my ship. Hopefully the job will take me to enough places to ask around a bit more, other wise the trail is starting to get cold.

I would write a report but I actually didn't know what was going on until I read Patchy's.

DT

I was going from her perspective :P She views your guy as a recruit using this for personal glory. And she reserves that right based on 22+ years of experience.

Well, sick today, so retooling some things. I found out how to make a simple program on a TI-84 calculator that will speed this up a decent amount, and I got many other small details fixed.
With the soccer season ending tomorrow, expect more missions inbound soon! :)
