Scenarios

SCENARIO A: Plagueis Ground Assault

You are responsible for the deployment of the Plagueis Ground Forces from orbit onto Zsoldos. The objective of your assault is to breach the Roark-Cole-Tresor (RCT) Research Station and obtain any prototype equipment within it. Destruction of the RCT Research Station is undesirable, however in the event of failure to capture the station this is a viable option.

The majority of space craft are engaged above Zsoldos, and the Plagueis Summit has the use of Orbital Bombardment to Consul level approval (i.e. it isn’t an option to work into your Ground Force Assault Battleplan).

SCENARIO B: Vizsla Ground Defense

Vizsla informants have revealed that Plagueis is preparing to target the Roark-Cole-Tresor (RCT) Research Station. You have been selected as Ground Defense Commander and are responsible for placement of defenses and contingency planning for the coming assault. Contingency plan should include, at a minimum, the Vizsla Forces reaction in the event that the RCT Research Station is overrun.

The majority of space craft are engaged above Zsoldos and will not be available for ground defense. Refer to Defense Forces list and exceptions listed below.

Plagueis Ground Forces Ascendant Legion - Transport Command Ascendant Legion - Legion I

Vizsla Ground Force Exception 1: The Vizsla Summit has directed that Strike Group Corvettes, Heavy Cruisers, Kom’rk Fighter Flights, and TIE Squadrons are to engage the Ascendant Fleet in the space above Zsoldos. These assets are not available for use in your Battleplan. Vizsla Ground Force Exception 2: Battleteam Deathwatch TIE/D Squadron and Kom’rk Fighter Flight are available for Ground Force Defense with operational control granted to the Ground Defense Commander (that’s you). The Battleteam Deathwatch Corvette is not available.

Note: Refer to Vizsla Possessions Page for sub-units below Strike Group Level
