I may be confusing EU with Fan Fiction, but I believe each of the ten(?) Grand Admirals were given an SSD?

 

But did Thrawn have one? I forgot

thank you....just no RPing here...we have a thread for that

 

Does anyone know how many turbolasers an Imp-Star II has?

 

I want to say somewhere's near 100, but I may be confused.

 

There were 13 Grand Admirals -and as far as I know none of them had a SSD

 

some interesting facts

 

Hello out there.

Jedi Satimber: Thrawn did not have an SSD, he had a regular 'ol SD called "Chimaera."

 

that is what thought, thanks for the reassurance.

 

Whipping a dead horse

Okay, my problem here is that I know a fan writer who does Imperial-based stories involving Thrawn and Palpatine that are so good, that I confuse them with the proper EU stuff.

So, here is where I'm coming from and getting confused.

I have read about a mistake that Thrawn made once, which lost him his SSD, but I don't know the source.

The Star Wars Encyclopaedia indicates that Pallaeon and the Chimaera were at the Battle of Endor (which Thrawn was not), and that on returning from the Unknown Regions, Thrawn selected the Chimaera as his flagship.
It was not the Grand Admiral's original flagship.

Southernjedi, according to the WEG Imperial Sourcebook, an Impstar II has 50 heavy turbolaser batteries, and 50 heavy turbolaser cannons.

 

So, here is where I'm coming from and getting confused.

My memory does indicate that Pallaeon and the Chimaera were at the Battle of Endor (which Thrawn was not), and Pallaeon ordered the Imperial fleet to withdraw.
Later, on returning from the Unknown Regions, Thrawn selected the Chimaera as his flagship.
I am pretty certain that this is official, and that it wasn't the Grand Admiral's original flagship.

I remember the Pelleon and the Chimaera part...he taking over at the BoE and withdrawing....
I am fuzzy about the Thrawn parts though, except for the taking over of the Chimaera

 

Thanks, Sith.

 

good job Sith

 

hey everybody do not forget the RPG. If you haven't been there, go check it out.

 

Captian Lank Pavail, commanding ISD-2 Malice. So, what planet are we going to subjuga..er, pacify first?

 

I love ISDs...

*Thinks of fleet of dozens of Star Destroyer's "pacifying" a planet*
*sighs*

...Yea...

 

While I, on the other hand, think of a VSD being called in to help save a planet from an incoming asteroid, chasing down the offensive rock and attempting to change it's course with concussion missiles and tractor beams.

I value grateful citizens more than dead ones, no matter what the Tarkin Doctrine says.

Hey, you must have read my story, then Because I've written a short story precisely on that topic - an ISD saving a planet from asteroid impact.

 

Wow, Moff'!

No, I haven't read your story, but if you have done one, it'll save me the trouble of working out how to do it. Has it been published yet (online, storyzine, etc.)?

My Victory-class vessel has rescued one of Vader's ISDs from the asteroid field in ESB, - story called 'Dodgems' - but we haven't tackled the planet rescue yet.

Nice going.

Hey Moff....are you going to be participating in the RPG?

 

My story isn't in English (yet), but the outline is rougly as you mentioned - a Star Destroyer finds itself in an unknown system, whose only inhabited planet is threatened by an asteroid, and blasts the thing into oblivion. Only the situation on board gets a lot more heated about the subject...

And no, I'm probably not going to participate in RPG. My access to the 'net is somewhat limited.

 

well, moff, how has the story come along...

And for anybody interested...we have an RPG that is fun to play along with.

 

How did this thread ever die off? It's the fuggin ISD fan club!!! Show some life! Just think of the image of the Imperial-classs Star Destroyer mark I cruising over the curve of a planet, towards it's next victim.
