The 102nd Task Force
Like the title says the idea in question is a series of battles between Sith and Republic writers to call a campaign.
However, they would not be invasions of either faction's worlds. Instead the idea behind this Campaign is for a battlegroup representing each faction to battle it out on Neutral worlds in between their territories. Essentially where both group's writing contributes to a dominion, and the winner of the battle taking control of the world, while the losing faction would fall back to the next planet and a new battle would commence.
Overall I am suggesting that the Republic and Sith each put together a Task Force of 5 Faction Writers and up to 2 Ally Writers. Who will then begin a battle against each other on Chandrila, and regardless of who wins the losing sides forces will retreat to Devaron where the next battle will take place. Each battle's setting being agreed upon beforehand.
The idea of this being a Campaign though, is that the same worlds will be fought over up to the 5 battles is desired. Say should the Sith lose the battle at Chandrila, but win at Devaron, they could choose to battle again on Chandrila (rather than say pushing for Teyr instead) at a second chance to take it. In such a way each faction could come away with a world each or the same world could be taken and lost repeatedly.
The concept behind this campaign is the small writer count to keep things contained and also make it feel like a real battlegroup put together for both sides. If this idea is popular the feature can be added where each battlegroup can bring in an additional writer after the first and second battle.
To be honest since each faction could only gain worlds with nothing to lose I think everyone would have a lot of fun and the scenarios we could setup could be interesting as well, such as a battle conducted completely aboard a space station while people dogfight around it, or Sith and Republic armies clash with Jedi and Sith heroes at the front as rally leaders for Commanders behind the battle lines, etc.
If there are OS and Republic writers interested in this then, feel free to post here and we can always gather more to set things up and talk it out in more detail.
