Imperial Fury
Imperial troopers march battered, yet victorious upon the surface of Maldra IV.
However, even in victory, they walk amidst the ruins of the fallen Imperial and Coalition fleets. Stormtroopers, clones, and other personnel cut through wreckage to extract survivors as paratroopers rescue downed pilots from precarious territory. The situation is much the same in space as it is on the ground, with efforts to recover escape pods and crew going deep into the evening hours. Unfortunately, the work is just as gruesome as it is lifesaving. Oftentimes, crews arrive at their assignments to find lifeless bodies floating in the void, their only responsibility being to tag the dead for later processing before pressing on to find others who can still be saved.
For these crews and the survivors awaiting rescue, the mood is solemn, yet resolute.
However, while the battle is decided, it is far from over. For many Imperials, all that remains of their mission is to breach and capture the Nest—a critical stronghold of the Coalition military. All the while, actions are underway to round up the surviving Coalition forces for trial, though many Imperials choose to deal with the prisoners via extrajudicial means.
While many find their solace in discipline and resolve, there are others whose hearts are filled with vengeance.
Objective I: The Finale
What was once the nexus of the juggernaut that was the Coalition military may now be the failed rebellion’s final bastion against Imperial domination over Maldra IV. Imperial command intends to have the subterranean installation under full Imperial control within 24 hours. However, for those forces tasked with taking it, an exhaustive defense network awaits them both inside and outside the facility. In order to achieve their objectives, the battle-hardened Imperial assailants will need to draw on their last reserves of strength and aggression as the Coalition soldiers within make their last stands.
At any and all cost, the Nest must fall.
Objective II: Liberation and Recovery
In the wake of the disastrous ionic superpulse, fleet commanders and crews work around the clock to recover life and vessel. To prevent yet more vessels from falling to the surface, ships must be resuscitated and their engines brought back to life before it is too late. Theirs is a critical mission, as the loss of yet more Imperial warships and personnel might well spell the total collapse of the Imperial Navy, which already has the bulk of its fleet assets tied up in drydock.
In much the same vein, many of the wounded are treated on the Nucleus, which has been brought into the system to assist in the ongoing personnel recovery efforts. With many of the Empire’s best suffering grievous injuries during the battle, it is here that they are brought to ensure their survival and continued service.
Objective III: Situation Report
On the Velran-class super star destroyer Revenge, the Empire’s high-ranking decision-makers gather in the vessel’s conference to discuss matters of critical importance as the war against the Tingel Arm Coalition enters its final stages. Although plans are already underway to rebuild the Empire’s industry and replenish its clone armies, the immediate problem of the Imperial Navy’s depleted roster must be addressed. While there are many who believe that the solution is simply to accelerate shipyard production, there are some proposals outlining risky alternative solutions that may or may not yield fruit.
Objective IV: Bring Your Own Objective
There are yet more stories and settings to explore in the wake of the battle than are possible to list here. Make your own adventure, create your own scenario, or simply bask in the narrative to your heart's content. Whatever you choose to do, have fun!
