BUT the people of literature form have come up with a slightly different, but similar list based on different books since the Wiki list has some mistakes or something

Note: This is from Thrawn Ewoks post..not mine...just thought I would give credit

FIRST WAVE

Gold Squadron (trench run)
Gold Leader = Jon "Dutch" Vander (Y-wing)
Gold 2 = Tiree (Y-wing)
Gold 3 = Ryle Torsyn (Y-wing)
Gold 4 = Lt. Lepira (unknown fighter)
Gold 5 = Davish "Pops" Krail (Y-wing)
Gold 6 = Hol Okand (X-wing [sic!])

Something I don't think anyone's picked up on before is that Hol Okand is flying an X-wing...

Gold Squadron Top Cover Group
Leader = Keyan Farlander (Y-wing)
(and least two others in Y-wings)


SECOND WAVE

Red Squadron (trench run)
Red Leader: Garvin Dreis (X-wing)
Red 2: Wedge Antilles (X-wing)
Red 3: Biggs Darklighter (X-wing)
Red 4: John D (X-wing)
Red 5: Luke Skywalker (X-wing)
Red 6: Jek Porkins (X-wing)
Red 7: Bren Quersey (X-wing)
Red 8: Elhyek Rue (X-wing)
Red 9: Mycall Naytaan (X-wing)
Red 10: Theron Nett (X-wing)
Red 11: Unknown. (X-wing)
Red 12: Gil "Drifter" Viray (X-wing)

Blue Squadron (top cover)
Blue Leader: Captain Merrick Simms (X-Wing)
Blue 2: Commander Ru Murleen (X-Wing)
Blue 3: "Rookie One" (X-Wing)
Blue 4: Thurlow Harris (X-Wing)
Commander Jake Farrell (R-22 Spearhead)

At this point, we have a total of 27 pilots assigned to the four squadrons in the main attack, including 7 Y-wings, 17 X-wings, one unknown, and two R-22s - although it's possible that the two R-22s weren't part of the main attack...

We also have:

Renegade Fight (X-wings?)
Renegade Leader - Boss Narra
(at least two others)

We don't know what they're up to, these guys. Are they part of the battle, or are they doing something else? If they're part of the attack, then they're either a component of Gold Squadron's top cover alongside the Y-wing 'group' which Farlander belongs to, or else they're part of Blue Squadron...

And then there are...

OTHERS
Travis (random fem

 

Jaina: The NYU area is my neighborhood!

And that sounds like a fun list.

 

We're kinda like Dak and Luke. I'm like luke, in that I'm awesome. Typo is like Dak.

 

Yeah, I think out of Rebel Assault characters, Merrick Simms, Ru Murleen, Thurlow Harris and Jake Farrell should be added.


I'd say Harris is only a few steps shy of teh Castin. He was always almost dying.

And Farrell could be a good late gamer, seeing as he saved Rookie One in the Death Star (survived that), and has been retconed into being the A-wing pilot at Endor ordered to try and make some of the TIEs follow him out of the Death Star (they look exactly the same).

 

Is Lando in this? He's a fair pilot.

 

No, Lando's typically not in the SFD.

So, Corran, any word yet on judges?

 

I really think Ru Murleen should be added. Her and Rookie one are good enought to draft individually, but not sooo good that it would be stupid to trump them. They would probably be one of the top trumps IMHO

 

Sorry guys, been busy with work and school. Midterms, bleh.

Jaina is our first judge, but I haven't received word for any one else. I'll probably judge if I need to, but that still means we need one more.

~Corran

 

I'd like to see Targeter be a judge in this one...or the possiblity of all-women judges.

 

i can't believe that there's enough pilots to make up this draft.

 

Well, the other day in the EUS she said she would be away for a week, so if no one else PMs Corran within that time, and if Corran decides to wait that long, she could be...

 

i can't believe that there's enough pilots to make up this draft.

I can't believe that there's enough Draft to make up these pilots.

Hey, Shadow, you have any interest in judging?

~Corran

 

Nah, I have to pass this time. I'm realllly trying to cut back on these things, as they tend to suck up very large chunks of time if you get involved in enough of them. It's time I can't really keep sparing the way I have been. I already broke down once when I said I wasn't going to with the latest Jedi Draft, so I have to draw the line somewhere.

 

Okay, Shurron is judging.

Let's get started.

 

Show of hands...who will be absolutely shocked if Ric Ollie isn't picked first?

 

Nah, it'll be either Kissek Doran or Teh Castin.

 

Hmm..yea..it's basically a toss-up. Whatever the matter, Ric Ollie = My Homeslice

 

Ok, here's an option for all you GMs.

I know a lot of people based their picks on which pilots the judges like, but we can go ahead and start the Drafting with only two judges (Jaina and Myself), and worry about finding the 3rd judge as we go along.

Thoughts?

~Corran

 

I'm alright with that.

I don't know the judges...so I really don't know their favorites either.
