The Battle of Ithor

[Valen Pelora]

Villains Beware​

Ithor was once a paradise consisting of beautiful jungles and numerous species of flora and fauna. The diabolical Sith ruined that however, burning the world from above on the order of Darth Solum. The bombardment reduced the world to a mere echo of itself, ruining countless ecosystems and driving many species to extinction. The natives, the peaceful Ithorians, also suffered greatly, their great floating cities struck down coldly, and their people murdered. At this time, the injustice was only the latest in a string of brutal attacks and terroristic action, but it grabbed the attention of the galaxy like never before, existing since then as a monument to the Sith's war machine and their limitless capacity for harm.

No longer! Much time has passed since that day, and the smallest hints of life have begun to return on Ithor's surface. It is but the most meager of growths, and true recovery may never be possible, but it is a sign. We the Jedi shall act now, to protect this growth and save the Ithorian people. Together, we shall construct a new monument, a beacon of hope and freedom for all to see, and we shall show once again, that the Sith can be beaten. Go now brethren, to your ships and take flight, for we today we take the first steps towards a free Ithor!

Man Cannot Kill Sith On Bread Alone
​

A resistance movement has cropped up on Urce, brave citizens one and all, trying to stand up to the Sith menace. The Order has made contact with one of the larger rebel cells, and have successfully smuggled quite a few weapon crates to the surface. Thankfully, the weapons arrived safely. The rebels, with the aid of some brave Jedi, were able to train and become a well-oiled fighting machine. Urce is home to a moderately sized Imperial garrison lording over the Capital city. If the garrison falls the Capital will belong to the rebels. The planet’s citizens have been waiting for their chance. It has come. Join the rebels, inspire them with confidence, and lead them against the Empire. If Urce is liberated this corner of the galaxy will be closer to peace.

Sellout Takeout

The planet of Genassa is home to a hub of the Imperial intelligence network. The operatives supply the Empire with information for the region. Imperial operatives subtly exert their control over Genassa rather than using ‘traditional’ authoritarian methods. Nonetheless, the planet is still in the suffocating grip of the Empire. The agents of Imperial authority operate from an expansive estate outside one of Genassa’s main cities. The Order has discovered the estate is filled with information on the Empire’s dastardly dealings on Genassa and in the region. If those secrets were to be exposed, the Empire’s fragile control of Genassa would shatter. Infiltrate the manor, defeat any resistance you encounter, and release the information on the holonet. The citizens of Genassa will take care of the rest.

A Blow for Justice
​

After weeks of study, the Council has finally decided on an optimum plan of attack. The target landing zone, however, is currently occupied by a small Sith outpost placed specifically to notice and prevent any invasions. Its anti air guns are especially troubling, and heavy casualties are assured if that base continues to block our way as is. Gather a small strike team and remove the problem, preferably with some semblance of secrecy. It would be a shame if the Empire were to catch on to our plans for the future and spoil them. Be warned though, we have reports of possible Sith stationed at the outpost.

TransPLANT
​

The mentally unstable Darth Solum left a small portion of Ithor unmarred to allow the Ithorian to appreciate the full breadth of the destruction. Ithor served as a message to galaxy of Solum's psychotic nature. Slowly Ithor has have grown more viable, but still that small portion remains the only 'safe' area on planet. Unsurprisingly, this is where the Sith have set up shop on the Ithor. The Jedi Army has launched a full scale assault on the Imperial base. The Army has landed in a secure location in which to begin their assault. Once the base falls the Imperial presence should be firmly diminished.

So, with TransPLANT won in the Jedi's favor, and now Man Cannot Kill Sith On Bread Alone won for the Jedi, we're definitely on our way for a Jedi victory over Ithor. Can't wait for the map update.​

When's the timeout date on these?

It may be this weekend. I am hoping most of these come to a conclusion before then, or we can get a week extension. Most of the threads seem nearly finished.

A Blow for Justice: Aug, 6
Sellout Takeout: Aug, 7

That's assuming the 4 week timer starts when the first member of the thread posts, rather than when the thread was posted, since Valen posted the various threads. The dates I offered are exactly 4 weeks from when the first post by one of the thread's participants posted.

EDIT: Normally, the timer only begins when PvP does, but since these are faction battles and main threads, the timer started when you guys started posting. @Relent​
