Governor's Gambit - Star Wars SI into Imperial Governor

[Wratus]

Hmmmm Endor happens and Las won't be able to leave since his security becomes extra paranoid, sweeps his usual flight route and it's surroundings, finds the shit he has prepared for his escape plan, sounds an alarm thinking it's an ambush plot and with the increased security sweeps finds out about the things he has done to his ship, thinks that it's an assassination plot thus they inadvertently dismantle his escape plans.

Las uses the Hub to gain as much Imperial fleet assets not tied to other Governors, Moffs and known typical ruthless Admirals. It turns out to be super effective as now he gains several task forces from systems that are in open local rebellion and are being reinforced by the RA. These local forces will suddenly get orders via the Hub to retreat and regroup within firmly Imperial loyalist sectors, which by coincidence Myto just so happens to be one of.

Then there is the not so small post Endor bonus coming his way in the form of Death Squadron remnants thanks to the Arbiter-class crews being from the sector, and with Vader dead they head home and bring the rest of the squadron with them. I once again hope the Executor survives Endor, but that Admiral Piett doesn't since he would either stop the squadron from going to Myto or he would become a nuisance if he where come here. So here's hoping that this time the secondary bridge of the Executor is actually manned and that when the A-wing crashes into the main bridge, they are able to control and thus letting Moff Mola gain a great flagship for his forces that makes it so that Grand Moff Ardus Kaine will actually have include Moff Las Mola during his talks and negotiations for the establishment of the Pentastar Alignment.

Isn't that kinda bad since it's gonna be closer to the unstable regions/warlords/ new republic?

Eh it is both a good and bad thing. On one hand it is closer to the border and closer to out of sector attacks. On the other between the close location, being on major hyperspace routes, and the future big shipyards, this system is likely going to end up heavily defended.

If there was ever a reason for multiple Star Destroyers from the sector navy being deployed in a single system, Angor would be a good candidate. Especially since it has the necessary facilities to do proper maintenance on ships that big. Angor is probably going to wind up being the defensive bulwark for its subsector.

The main threat would be an enemy of Myto's sending a fleet big enough to overcome that level of naval concentration. Sending a bunch of Star Destroyers or equivalents to a sector as galactically remote as Myto is a bit of a tall ask when there is still an entire galaxy's worth of fires needing to be put out. It will likely be mostly be raiding flotillas that come to test Myto's defenses, and Angor's defensive fleet is likely going to be big enough to handle that.

Las: Doing nothing and just ordering his generals to conduct some military exercises in space.

The least fanatical Mito captain in the fleet: "Rejoice! Our generals, who brought us out of despair, have given us a place to die."

Given Las's "luck", I feel that he somehow gets his hands on Eclipse-class Super Star Destroyer.

Even without the Vong, I'd be worried about the Dark Empire.

90? Make that 1900, and you'll be far more likely

The Emperor will die in such a way that Las will become the new Emperor, like the Emperor slips on that bouncing force ball and impales himself or something while Las walks in the room to deliver a report and the Emperors last act will be pointing to last and saying "you...", everyone will assume he just made Las his heir and thus the Golden Age of Emperor Las the Great will begin.

He's going to become like that Roman Emperor that kept trying to retire but the people kept putting back on the throne because he was just that good.

Now I'm wondering: if I'm not mistaken, why are people so against extending their lifespans with cybernetics? They have the technology and the means to keep a brain alive in a jar, don't they?

I'm betting that he goes through with it only to be immediately found by haven, then when he has a breakdown about how much high command has been breathing down his neck they get news of he emperor's death.

N'zoth is relatively close. Depending on the routes he might be able to have ships sent from there to his yards for finishing. It's on the other side of Coruscant and Bilbringi but it looks like mostly a straight shot. The minds of logistics staff have lead to stranger situations. It could free up their yards for other projects, speed up overall fleet repair, or try to sidestep supply issues. Walking off with a SSD isn't in the cards but there's got to be a ton of smaller ships that could be redirected.

Bastion/Sartinaynian also looks to be much closer and if he cuts the right orders he could probably siphon some forces from there. They could be the most reliable to the Empire's leadership but in the chaos there have to be commands getting shuffled around. The shipyards at Ord Trasi are also close for the same schemes.

Between Muunilist, Kalee, and Bescane more recruitment and relocation of nearby talent should keep rolling. Dantooine and Mygeeto are close to add force user shenanigans. The butterflies he's unleashed could impact the Pentastar Alignment and the Vong and keep things interesting in the area for the near future.

Las could also import Bafforr trees everywhere and hope that they don't go evil. The Vong would think the galaxy hates them when they run face first into two sectors of planets with those trees almost immediately after invading.

Problem with him doing this is that the new Moff of the Braxant sector which Bastion/Sartinaynian is a part of is his ally and he even agreed to adopt the Imperial Guild for his sector so doing so would just sour their relationship which is just stupid. If he is going to do so with any sector at all it needs to be with a sector under the control of a Moff he doesn't mind screwing over.

Also this just came to me but he could when using the Hub to try to pull Imperial Navy and Army assets to Myto, he can have some of them stop by the Pammant Docks and have them escort the rest of them to the Angor System if he hasn't grabbed all of the ring before the Battle of Endor.
All he needs to do is to have salvage teams set things up for easy dismantling of the various modules of the rings and have transport teams on standby to be escorted by whatever forces he is able to rope in when he grabs them in the chaos of the post Endor aftermath.

If he is ambitious enough he could also set up a pipeline for Imperial evacuees from Imperial worlds in the Galactic South and East that are going to be hit hard by simultaneous internal rebel activity that will soon be backed up by Rebel Alliance soon to be New Republic forces coming to reinforce said rebels, of course this could end up with to many people suddenly coming to Myto and strain their economy, but he has his ally the Moff of the Braxant Sector which is also a Outer Rim backwater like Myto and one of it's neighbouring sectors where he can offload the influx thus both Sectors will get a higher population of Imperial citizens to settle and help produce goods and war materials for the Warlord era.

And then he could perhaps even take advantage of his current alliance of convenience with the Moffs of the Veragi and Obtrexta sectors if i remember correctly that he and the Braxant sector Moff went into and dump the more Imperial Hardliners into those sectors. Although it would have been funny if those two Moffs where to also end up adopting the guild.

Culture. And that over 20,000 year old religious order thats widespread across the entirety of known civilisation doesn't really like them, as they limit their connection to the force. Its leaked through a bit.

Plus, you know, the last time a Jedi tried to treat non-biological lifeforms with respect they got literally excommunicated. Justice for Jedi Master Aqinos and the Shards of Orax

So, we can make Las immortal? That's what I'm hearing from you.
