Smugglers, Drugs and Guns: Kessel Edition
It should come as no surprise that Kessel is oft times viewed as perhaps the number one supplier of Spice in the Outer Rim, and perhaps further in towards the Core Worlds. From junkies on the streets to the rich and powerful, Spice pervades the very fabric of society. But there is more to it than just a whiff of euphoria. Spice has many uses. Cash is King in regards to this treasure trove of a world, and power is just what the Sith need. Moff Za'til wants Kessel for the Empire, to turn its Spice Mines into a workhorse for the Imperials and to add another feather into the burgeoning underworld trade in the Empire.
To that end she calls upon you, the few either daring or brazen enough to tackle this task.
Thieves and Liars
[ ASK ]
Kessel is run not by the Cartels, sure, they play a role in this world but they aren't the only players. A noted smuggler, Marus Simms controls a swath of Spice Mines in the northern hemisphere. His reputation is known even in the Empire as a brutal and cunning member of Kessel's upper echelons. As such, he would fit right in with our plans. . . provided he can be brought in line.
Primary Objective
Negotiate with Simms and try to sway him to our side.
Secondary Objective
Should negotiations fail, eliminate Simms and his guards. We can always install another to take his place. (Difficulty: High. Expect Hunter-Killer Droids, and cybernetically enhanced humans, including Marus himself. And yes, you will have to fight Space Morgan Freeman.)

Smuggler Down
[ OPEN ]
Imperial forces have shot down a smuggler's ship trying to flee with a Republic spy on board. The main problem is that it is out in the badlands. Areas so heavily polluted through Spice manufacturing and mining that it is hazardous to sentient life. Ensure you've got a rebreather when venturing there.
Primary Objective
Kill the Smuggler, and Capture the Spy for Interrogation.
Secondary Objective
Roving bands of bandits infest the area and have spotted the downed ship. Fend them off if you dare and capture your prize (the spy), or survive until extraction arrives. (Difficulty: Hard, expect fifteen to twenty armed bandits. Their speeders maybe armed.)

Coup d'etat
[ASK]
With the Empire's arrival to Kessel, the Diplomatic Service has made overtures to one of the native crime lords: Jaguro the Hutt. While not directly affiliated with the Hutt Cartel, he is still powerful none the less. He has opposed Imperial involvement on Kessel and has kidnapped our Diplomat in hopes of ransom and forcing us off the spinning dustball. As such he has also threatened to shut down major Spice production centers should we remain. Show him what happens to those who would spit in the eye of the Empire.
Primary Objective
Kill Jaguro. (Difficulty: Very Hard, expect heavily armed/armored droids, Gamorreans, and palace defenses.)
Secondary Objective
Capture Jaguro alive should you be so inclined.

[OPEN]
While 'officially' the Hutt Cartel has not become involved in our attempted take over of Kessel, that has not stopped them from seeking to hamper our efforts through other channels. Mandalorian Mercenaries have been harassing our engineering, and landing parties; keeping them from establishing a proper Spice depot on planet. They must be stopped if we are to begin turning Kessel's wealth of spice to our advantage.
Primary Objective
Eliminate the Mandalorian mercenaries (Difficulty: Very Hard. They're Mandalorians. 'Nuff Said.)
Secondary Objective
Try to capture one of the mercenaries alive for interrogation so we may implicate the Cartel for its involvement.

It should be no surprise that Relent's couch is something the Sith sorely desire. We wish to crash upon it for 'Just a Couple of Days' and overstay our welcome. It is time for the greatest of sieges to occur.
Primary Objective
Occupy Relent's Couch for the Empire!
Secondary Objective
Try not to spill anything on it.
