A massive block of choices that will determine a lot, so though I am loathe to leave it for a very long time with no update, I'll let this one sit until 22-04-04, 20:00 UTC+1.

EDIT: Disregard last regarding prepwork votes, forgot that there is one more after this, but that is the definitive last before story post begins.

If something lacks an FP cost, it is considered a normal choice, if it costs FP, it is either irregular or considered highly desirable, if you gain FP, it is generally obsolete or considered undesirable.

TOTAL AVAILABLE FAVOUR POINTS: 120
100 (base) +10 (politics & influence) +10 (CSA connections)

I'm sorry QM that you don't have more players, it must be pretty discouraging.
I wish I had more of an idea of how to have the most optimal builds for the lines of our squadrons, it's hard for me to even know what to begin with. Kinda regret not reading the published Imperial Handbook(s), this is a super important vote since all of our power comes from the barrel of our ships' turbolasers.
At first glance, since we will not receiving any resupply and have to set up our state in the Unknown Regions, it is important that we keep as many of the men and women under our command alive and healthy - definitely going for the MedStar medical frigate in that case. Those advisors groups from our favors will also be a huge boon for us as well, since PC will need trustworthy competent underlings he can delegate actions to.

Just to be sure, we get one choice per block? Or can we spend DP to get more than one option, such as in the Favors section? Also is there anything else we need to be saving our FP for or is this where we should spend it all?

Not discouraging as such, since I do this a lot for my own sake, to get better at writing (lolno). But I feel that a quests entertainment value often increases with more players and more discussion. But I'm content just keeping on updating with the ones active now if that is how it ends up. IRL I've held solo campaigns in pen and paper games several times because I've not had many players interested in the same themes or settings, and some of those have been incredibly memorable and fun games.

And yeah, a good fleet composition will be the core of your powerbase at the start, so that's why I set like one and a half week of thinking time for it. But even a suboptimally designed superiority fleet is still an imperial superiority fleet, and not something to scoff at, so while there is probably a "best" design, I haven't made any intentional trap choices, I just like murderwedges and want to offer choices about what murderwedges others want, if there is an optimal build, I haven't thought on it. This is also why I haven't posted any rules on naval combat, since I want this choice to be picked based on what "feel" you as players want the admiral and his fleet to have, rather than what is numerically the strongest and then work of that.

Just to be sure, we get one choice per block? Or can we spend DP to get more than one option, such as in the Favors section? Also is there anything else we need to be saving our FP for or is this where we should spend it all?
One choice per block, since they are the standard sizes of a fleet. Favours are additions on top of that which your character has managed to get assigned to him independently of what a fleet should have on paper.
No point in saving FP, spend all here or it will just be wasted.

That's reassuring that you're content with the current situation, I've seen many cases where low player participation causes the QM to lose all motivation to write and run the quest. Glad to hear that won't be the case. :p

While thinking about potential fleets, should we keep in mind the infrastructural development and industrial capacity of our new state? It'll be nice to have a Bellator flagship, only for our longest docks to have a capacity for ships up to 2km and we can't repair or refit our 7.2km dreadnought after a battle.
It'll be funny if we turned into a warlord just so we can keep supplying our fleet and most of the potential actions are related to solving logistical issues like negotiating for food, tibanna gas and hyperspace reactor fuel. Can't really fight if your crew is starving, can't fire the turbolasers or even get to the battle.

Regarding our fleets, I think it would be a mistake to have a fleet built for a decisive battle, e.g dedicating each squadron/fleet to a specific role that unit would be very good at what it does, but it would be very vulnerable if it's on it's own. Let's say a "heavy" battle squadron of a force superiorities is dedicated to shipfighting (a Tector battleboat, Vindicator h.cruisers, Carrack l.cruisers and Assassin corvettes) but is vulnerable to strikes from starfighters or would be bad at normal duties (planetary defense or patrols) or putting down revolts planetside.
As players, we will also have to keep in mind which squadron is good at unless the process to relegate squadrons and ships to duties is automated, would be a chore to write the orders of each and every battle line.
Not to mention, that space is huge, and we will have to dedicate our fleet to patrolling and showing off the flag to reinforce our authority.

Spoiler but not really since it will appear in the first story post and is actually important information, you will have partial (or potentially in the future full) access to a deepdock. But yeah, since the warlord era will be starting in the galaxy anyways, that's basically just what is canon behaviour for imperials with power anyways. The difficulties will be in keeping the refit capabilities you have stocked with parts and materials.

Regarding specialization and fleet doctrine, yeah an Imperial Fleet would traditionally be rather generalist as far as I've understood it, and I think that shows in the main Star Destroyer in use, the Imperial. It has a respectable amount of turbolasers, carries a decent number of fighters and houses enough troops for directed strikes or at least holding beachheads. So the idea of building a "Long Patrol" type of fleet that can tackle most problems but isn't exceptional in one specific role isn't out of character.

As for patrols and orders, you will delegate a lot of it. You command the fleet, and while you can command smaller units directly, really you'll have subordinates for that, so most of that will be basically backend stuff that I do based on a bunch of tables I've written, but as far as players are concerned, it's mostly automatic. I should probably get it into macros for ease of use, but I like rolling physical dice, so traditional it is.

Good to know about the deepdock access and that a lot of the more mundane actions will be set up automatically or in a abstract sense "[]Set Up Patrols" and have it done by an subordinate of ours.

I've been thinking about our Flagship and the one I've settled upon is the Praetor II battlecruiser. At first I wanted to go with the Allegiance-class, it would have been excellent at fighting other starships and deleting them pointblank due to being well-armored and having a plentiful amount of guns for it's size but it didn't have any starfighter wings or groundside complement, so we'd always need an attached squadron to deal with starfighters.
The Praetor doesn't have those weaknesses - it can carry 10 Squadrons of starfighters (120) and has a groundside complement of 14,000 Stormtroopers and all the vehicles that come with a Legion to ferry them around (aren't Legions only 9-10k stormtroopers?, either we have a overstrength and oversized legion or two understrength ones), not to mention it has 60 quad heavy turbolasers, 40 dual medium turbolasers (apparently it's undergunned for a ship of it's size and that's why it's not a dreadnought).

Provisional Flagship Plan:
[] - Praetor II-class Star Battlecruiser (10 FP)
[] - Add a DiploServ Advisor Group to your flagship (2 FP)
[] - Add a Tech Analysis Group to your flagship (2 FP)
[] - Add a IDMR R&D Team to your flagship (2 FP)
[] - Replace one Squadron of TIE/LN Fighters with one squadron of TIE/ad Avengers on your flagship (5 FP)
[] - Replace two Squadrons of TIE/LN Fighters with one squadron of TIE/D Defenders on your flagship (5 FP)
[] - Add a Squad of Death Troopers to your flagship (5 FP)

It uses up 31 of our FP out of 120, so we still have 3/4s of it left to be spent on the rest of our fleet.

I think we should go with the bellator (25 pts) since its unlikely we will be able to get anymore heavy metal in the short-medium term.
I would also get very advisor and specialist possible (36 pts) because it's unlikely we will be able to get any later. The specialized troops will also not be available after the Empire falls apart.
The Lucrehulk Battleship (20pts) yes it doesn't fit the rest of the fleet, but it gives us a heavily fortified, mobile supply/whatever we need (or can refit it as) with its huge cargo capacity.
Add 2 Altor replenishment ships (30 pts) and 4 medical frigates (8 pts) brings us to 119 pts.
We can then use the last point to get a trio of Venators and all the fighters they carry which will be needed to compensate for the general lack most Imp designs have. Keep the rest of the fleet limited to as few designs as possible and excluding those designs with major flaws (Dreadnought cruiser-crew size, Victory I's engine and reliance on missiles) should mean the fleet can keep going for a while with limited resupply.

Heavy metal and replenishment
[] - Bellator-class Star Dreadnaught (25 FP)

[] - Add an Adjustments agent to your Flagship, you will not be aware of their identity (2 FP)
[] - Add a DiploServ Advisor Group to your flagship (2 FP)
[] - Add a Tech Analysis Group to your flagship (2 FP)
[] - Add a Renik and an Infiltration Team to your flagship (10 FP)
[] - Add a Destab Team to your Fleet (10 FP)
[] - Add a SpecNav Force Squad to your flagship (5 FP)
[] - Add a Squad of Death Troopers to your flagship (5 FP)

[] - Add an Altor-class Replenishment Ship to your Fleet (15 FP) 2x
[] - Add a MedStar-class Medical Frigate to your Fleet (2 FP) 4x

[] - Add a Lucrehulk Battleship to your Fleet (20 FP)

Edit: The Altors also have
At the stern of the vessel were located several hangar/drydock complexes that could fit frigate-scale capital ships for deep space repairs
which will make it easier to maintain the fleet.

Alright, here's a first completed plan. This fleet is split across two strategies but based on having a relatively small number of hull types to make repair and logistics easier. Force Superiority 1 is designed to emulate the success of the Rebellion. It features a pair of Secutors coupled with an Impstar Deuce and our Praetor II Flagship, and 10 Victory IIs for a total of well over 700 Star Fighters, many of them upgraded via favors so we have a lot of long-range capable fighters here. The escorts include large numbers of Tartan-class which are specialized in taking down enemy fighters, giving us fighter superiority and anti-fighter protection in any engagement, and Vigil class for decent firepower and speed. The Immobilizer will be added to this fleet to provide it with hyperspace interdiction ability.

Force Superiority II is a more traditional Imperial force with Impstar Deuces forming the backbone, with an Interdictor added for hyperspace interdiction. They have the same escort fleet of Victories, Tartans, and Vigils so fewer fighters, and much fewer of the upgraded models, but a lot more heavy turbolasers pointed at the enemy and still has a very healthy anti-fighter screen to make any X-Wing pilots wince.

Escort fleet I is designed around more of the same, being a mix of Victory IIs, Tartans, and Arquitens to provide a balanced mix of fighters, turbo lasers, and anti-fighter cover. Their recon vessels are a mix of Pacifiers (High firepower recon-in-force vessels) and Skywatchers (Probe Droid platforms letting them recon from a safe distance in dangerous situations).

Escort Fleet II however breaks with the use of similar hulls and is made up entirely of Correllian Corvettes, Carracks, Strikes, SCT Scouts, and a few other ships that are mainly associated with the New Republic. The Nebulon-Bs can be added to this group. As they are ships that can be readily identified with our enemies, these vessels will be used for false-flag and infiltration operations, pretending to be Republic vessels as needed. The DeStab and Renik teams will be assigned here where they'll do the most good. The Lucrehulk, Marauder Corvettes, and Acclamators can also be rolled into this group if more firepower is needed as those are also all ships somebody else might own and won't immediately scream "Imperial Remnant Invasion." When the opportunity arises we shall steal or otherwise obtain Republic starfighters and armor as well in order to complete the illusion.

Despite their firepower I've avoided the Gozanti Cruiser and its variants on the grounds that we really, really don't want to be caught with slow vessels that can't easily escape in a pinch. Generally, I'm going with faster ships where possible. The exception are the 20 IPV-1 Corvettes with no hyperdrive at all, which are going to be used to protect our shipyard and thus will not need to travel interstellar distances.

There are ten points left to polish off a custom team, I'm not 100% sure which ones to go for. I've avoided Dark Troopers as I can't see individual units being that valuable and also don't want to risk Kyle Katarn getting involved. My general leaning is towards getting SpecNav and Death Troopers, I have trouble seeing only four Storm Commandoes as being worth their cost compared with what else is available.

I'm happy to see a lot of thought put into the plans and ship choices and where they sit in relation to the setting, I just felt that I may not have been clear on the premise and how removed from the extant stories it will be.

While it is during the Warlord era, and I'll use mainly Legacy content, your fleet will be far removed from where the New Republic and New Jedi Order stuff actually happens. Now where exactly you'll have to find out in game. But go for the choices you find interesting, gives the correct feel, or you want to springboard from for the flavour of your future warlord faction.
The rebels/republic will only become a problem if you manage to make your way back into the charted parts of the galaxy. This is after all an Unknown Regions warlord quest.
But I do like the mismatched late warlord period hodgepodge of murderwedges, obsolete or converted ships, and rebel captures. I also like the "only gray dagger shapes" look. So I won't favor one over the other as a GM, this was only meant as clarification that I haven't left any trap choices in the favour buys.

They have the same escort fleet of Victories, Tartans, and Vigils so fewer fighters, and much fewer of the upgraded models, but a lot more heavy turbolasers pointed at the enemy and still has a very healthy anti-fighter screen to make any X-Wing pilots wince.

Escort fleet I is designed around more of the same, being a mix of Victory IIs, Tartans, and Arquitens to provide a balanced mix of fighters, turbo lasers, and anti-fighter cover. Their recon vessels are a mix of Pacifiers (High firepower recon-in-force vessels) and Skywatchers (Probe Droid platforms letting them recon from a safe distance in dangerous situations).

Escort Fleet II however breaks with the use of similar hulls and is made up entirely of Correllian Corvettes, Carracks, Strikes, SCT Scouts, and a few other ships that are mainly associated with the New Republic. The Nebulon-Bs can be added to this group. As they are ships that can be readily identified with our enemies, these vessels will be used for false-flag and infiltration operations, pretending to be Republic vessels as needed. The DeStab and Renik teams will be assigned here where they'll do the most good. The Lucrehulk, Marauder Corvettes, and Acclamators can also be rolled into this group if more firepower is needed as those are also all ships somebody else might own and won't immediately scream "Imperial Remnant Invasion." When the opportunity arises we shall steal or otherwise obtain Republic starfighters and armor as well in order to complete the illusion.

Despite their firepower I've avoided the Gozanti Cruiser and its variants on the grounds that we really, really don't want to be caught with slow vessels that can't easily escape in a pinch. Generally, I'm going with faster ships where possible. The exception are the 20 IPV-1 Corvettes with no hyperdrive at all, which are going to be used to protect our shipyard and thus will not need to travel interstellar distances.

There are ten points left to polish off a custom team, I'm not 100% sure which ones to go for. I've avoided Dark Troopers as I can't see individual units being that valuable and also don't want to risk Kyle Katarn getting involved. My general leaning is towards getting SpecNav and Death Troopers, I have trouble seeing only four Storm Commandoes as being worth their cost compared with what else is available.

I'm not sure if going with a starfighter-focused doctrine is the best idea. Our most common TIE/ln is a deathtrap and we'll be losing our limited amount of pilots, and as lost we are in the Unknown Regions, we won't be receiving a constant resupply and reinforcements of TIEs and pilots from the Empire. We'll have to focus on building up factories to spool up TIE production and start up pilot academies as soon as possible.
Regarding your ships, I like the Tartans, Carracks, Strikes, Lancers, Vigils and Broadsides (would have liked Gladiators instead, oh well) and also would have chosen them. Can you change my mind on the Victories? I thought the Victories were just worse ImpStars and the Vindicators are considerably better than them.
It makes sense to skimp on the Force Technical ships, considering we'll probably be disembarking all of the people on those ships to our spacedocks or planetside facilities. Regarding their escorts, I would have gone with more Tartans and Carracks but I'm alright if we go with Nebulon-Bs instead.

Regarding favors, I'm fine with the Immobilizer, Altor and MedStar choices and also would have chosen them. The TIE scouts are also okay, can't go wrong with more scouting. I'm confused about the role of the Skiprays and what they do.
I also agree with your advisor groups and teams, we'll use them to create the Science, Diplomacy and Espionage Departments of our state. Regarding the Death Troopers, I'd chosen them as our bodyguard unit and as our troubleshooters (sometimes literally). CSA favors - I like the Marauders, I guess we use the Espo Walkers to improve our AT-STs. I'm kinda on the fence for the Lucrehulk, would be very useful as a big fuck you resupply ship, but that FP cost...

Victory IIVindicator
HyperdriveClass 1.0Class 2.0
Weapons
  • 20 Quad Turbolasers batteries
  • 20 Double heavy turbolaser Batteries
  • 10 Heavy Ion cannons
  • 10 Tractor beam projectors
  • 25 Light turbolasers
  • 20 Light quad turbolaser cannons
  • 10 Point-defense laser cannons
  • 10 Point-defense light ion cannons
  • 3 Tractor beam projectors
Carried Craft
  • 24 TIE Fighters
  • 5 Shuttles
  • 10 AT-AT
  • 15 AT-ST
  • 10 Juggernaut Tanks
  • 24 TIE Fighters, some models were modified to carry up to 72, not sure which we get.
Troops and Cargo Carried
  • 1600 Troops
  • 8100 Tons Cargo
  • 400 Troops
  • 8000 Tons Cargo

Basically, in every way that can be reasonably measured, the Victory II has more, which isn't surprising since it's a third larger lengthwise, so roughly triple the volume. It has more speed, more weapons, more cargo, and carries about twenty times the ground attack capability (four times the troops and about a battalion of vehicles the Vindicator lacks entirely). The Vindicator edges it out significantly in point defense weaponry but my plan is reliant on Tartans providing point defense and the Victories bringing the heavy guns, so a Vindicator's point defense isn't as needed, but there's no available substitute for Heavy Turbolasers and Ion Cannons. The fact that the Victory comes with ground assault capability is the clincher in my mind, we may want those Walkers and Tanks and four times more stormtroopers badly.

It makes sense to skimp on the Force Technical ships, considering we'll probably be disembarking all of the people on those ships to our spacedocks or planetside facilities. Regarding their escorts, I would have gone with more Tartans and Carracks but I'm alright if we go with Nebulon-Bs instead.

Regarding favors, I'm fine with the Immobilizer, Altor and MedStar choices and also would have chosen them. The TIE scouts are also okay, can't go wrong with more scouting. I'm confused about the role of the Skiprays and what they do.
Well with the realization that we won't be facing the Rebels or Republic at all, my plan to make a fleet of ships that can pretend to be them is redundant and that was my main reason for going with the Nebulon-Bs. They can be swapped out. Nebulon-Bs aren't terrible ships though, decent mini-Star Destroyer with a mix of guns and fighter compliment.

Skiprays are amazing. They're just a bit smaller than the Millenium Falcon, but have 90% of the maneuverability of an X-Wing, a higher top speed than said fighter, and carry more weapons than smaller capships. They've got ion cannons, laser cannons, concussion missiles, proton torpedoes, and a tractor beam. On top of that their shields are as good as a Frigate or better, but wrapped around a highly maneuverable starfighter.

It's a starfighter with so much firepower and engine output many systems classify it as a capital ship. If the points worked out I'd be willing to buy several squadrons for that price.

I also agree with your advisor groups and teams, we'll use them to create the Science, Diplomacy and Espionage Departments of our state. Regarding the Death Troopers, I'd chosen them as our bodyguard unit and as our troubleshooters (sometimes literally).

I'm kinda on the fence for the Lucrehulk, would be very useful as a big fuck you resupply ship, but that FP cost...
I agree, the Lucrehulk is a bit pricey but note that while it's slightly more powerful than an Impstar Deuce in terms of guns (64 heavy turbolasers instead of 60 for the Star Destroyer), it carries 1,500 fighters. Granted they're garbage fighters but hopefully we can replace them with something better, given some time to build.

The ESPO Walkers were pretty much just because I wanted the points to come out even, I don't think they're that critically valuable.

Wow, the Victories are a lot better than the Vindicators, I'm convinced. Thanks for the detailed write-up on the differences between the two classes.

They do indeed sound pretty nice, remind me of the Xg-1 Star Wings in capabilities.
Considering that we won't be fighting the Republic or the wider galaxy for a very long time, I'm thinking we should replace the CR90 corvettes with their more thickly armored variant of the CR92a and the Nebulon Bs get replaced by Carracks?

Yeah, I think we can afford to have the Lucrehulk, it's simply too useful for our fleet not to take it. Is it possible to squeeze in the squadrons of TIE Avengers and Defenders for our flagship? I think it'll make for a nice prestigious position our pilots in the fleet to aim for, it keeps the high-scoring aces who made it to the top alive and we can later use them as instructors and trainers. Also by having the physical starfighters in our hands, it'll be easier to set up factories to produce them later on.

We have ten points left past what I spent so we could buy the squadrons without any changes, or alternately but the SpecNav and Death Troopers with no change.

Honestly part of my paralysis there is that they seem too expensive to me. After buying eight pocket carriers for only 5 points, when I look at merely getting a dozen fighters upgraded for the same cost, it causes me to reflexively clutch my metaphorical coin purse.

We could halfway on each - go for the Death Troopers and Defenders. I think that the Defenders will be worth the investment - we spend the FP now to save it later. We keep our best pilots alive and we have enough Defenders to take a few apart so we can produce and introduce them to the rest of the fleet. We will also implement their advancements to build a better common TIE starfighter. It'll be difficult to have a doctrine based on starfighters if we'll constantly be losing pilots and fighters due to how bad they are.

I have no experience in logistics and anything like this, but shouldn't we make the fleet as autonomous as possible? I mean in the sense that any component can deal with multiple issues in and of itself? Maybe, having a large portion of our fleet being smaller warships that we can use flexibly as opposed to having a variety of specialized ships? It just occurs to me that we are essentially behind enemy lines and need to be self-reliant and thus ship losses are more irreplaceable, and thus losing any particular ship will hurt our capabilities in that particular area. So, I am thinking that generalization can avoid that and we can branch into ship specialization later when we have a good industrial base. Further, with generalized ships, we can be more flexible against enemies that are unknown. Just musing, wanted to post something, but much of this is out of my depth.

Though, what I am thinking of may have already been covered. What I am thinking mostly is that we should use finesse, as opposed to force and use a flexible force to tailor our response to our opposition in the moment, rather than at some larger strategic level.

Generally speaking, 9/10ths of our ships already fill that role. The ships that Bear Ribs choose from the Imperial fleet selection are already pretty generalized and are decent all-rounders. You can take any Victory II and send it with 3x Tartans as a task force solve any small or moderate problem. You could argue that our two interdictors or Securators are specialized, but they are still alright ships without their specializations.

So I've taken @Bear Ribs's plan and and changed a few ships and options he had selected from the discussions that had undergone in the thread.

That's pretty good, I added up all your points though, and there's only 113 there. So I suggest we swap out the Acclamators for Evakmars (Another of my obsolete plans that were meant to hide we were Imperial), and then with five points left either:

1: Buy the SpecNav team
2: Swap out the Death Troopers to get 10 points left and buy the Ton-Falk Escort Carriers.

Personally, I'm of the opinion we should get the SpecNav team. Though I'm greedy for more carriers I realize we're long on them at this point and short on special forces fighters, and we shouldn't leave all the ground work to ordinary Storm Troopers.

We should also swap out all the Arquitens class for Carracks, that was, again, an infiltrator move to keep Carracks out of our regular fleet to avoid suspicion from the Republic. Carracks have more firepower than Arquitens and carry a small number of fighters so they'll bolster those lines considerably and add flexibility. Arquitens don't have that much going for them if they don't have the command modules installed.
