Date: Friday 19th, 20th and 21st April 2013
Venue Address: Gold Coast Convention Centre – Longfin Sector, Southern most stronghold of the Redback Quadrant.
Time: 1300 for scouting activities and FOB (Forward Operating Base) setup on the 19th, 0700 for invasion preparation and deployment on the 20th and 0700 for our Victory parade and occupation force assimilation on the 21st with a late extraction of core forces in that evening. An Occupation force of the ever reliable and tough Longfins reigns supreme in this sector until the next uprising which the Emperor has foreseen for the same time next year?
Mission: To answer the call for support by the Longfin squad after Intel reports of Cospalyer’s, Trekkers and Whobian’s and other scum massing to establish a foothold in this newly acquired sector. Little did we know that the Rebel Legion also spearheaded a short insurrection which our Mando comrades quickly disintegrated.

TK6148 Report: 1300 19th April Longfin Sector
Several early scouting vehicles and transports arrived at the determined time and spot for deployment of the FOB. Scope and Redav quickly avoided capture by the GC Security detail and manoeuvred their transports ready for unloading at bay 2. Some befriending of the SupaNova staff was required for an early unload of the transports and this was engineering by Scope to great effect and securing of the change rooms. The initial reaction force grouped and deployed the Death Star Trash Compactor, Card Prop and Blast doors quicker than our Lord Vader can force choke a poor performing ID. Flailing in the shadows was a lonely Tardis exhibitor, quickly we were dispatched by Lord Vader to help out a fellow Lord, even if he was only a Time Lord with a malfunctioning screwdriver.
0700 20th April Longfin Sector
Answering the call were many 501st, Mando’s and Rebel Legion classes who promptly deployed for the filling of the hall for what became a turkey shoot for Republic Credits. Many a tin was filled and returned to the staging area and the 3 props were quickly occupied by Cosplay, Trekker and Whobian scum trying to turn the tide of invasion. Proudly the force held the lines and we turned out many a pocket of every credit we could find. Due to the massive onslaught, troops were rotated back and forward from the front to the overcrowded changing rooms which had now been infiltrated by some D2L assassins and villains.
By mid morning the scum in this sector had realised that resistance was futile and they succumbed to handing over copious amounts of credits for photo opportunities with members of the invasion force. A visit by Darth Maul who was not in uniform excited the crowds and this ignited a stampede and frenzy on the photo booths. This followed on late into the afternoon with many an imposter spotted trying to emulate the Bad Guys/Girls Doing Good.
1830 – Sometime late – Mexican Cantina
The invasion force had pulled back for an evening of Galactic frivolity with some Mexican flair. Several troopers were seen holding the wrong kind of bucket containing what seemed to be an out of date bacta fluid and consuming food that was sure to transform many a shiny into a Sandy and burning you on the inside like a tepid Tattoonie day..........
Later Dancing and Gelato was had and several troopers had peeled off to for private debriefs and initiations
0700 21th April Longfin Sector
Command had decided that a Victory Parade was in order and the troops massed on the shores of this sector although I feel a few had flashbacks to the battle of Kashyyyk. What happened next was of utter disgrace to this occupation force and a little known warrior from the Kitt system slid in and led the parade back to our FOB and to be honest he was a bit of a Hoff, some would have said Nerf Herder.
Back at the FOB the troops were hard at it as this invasion turned into occupation and the crowds went about their business in an orderly fashion. This was sometimes broken when reports of sightings of Lord Vader, Chewbacca, Mando’s and many Sith and Jedi were rumoured. A short uprising of some Rebel Fleet Troopers was quickly and quietly subdued with only 1 survivor who had not been shot at all........back to the range for you TK’s.
As a token of our appreciation of occupation a nice new shiny TK helmet was raffled off to once again rid the locals of those Republic Credits. Scope had been doing some secret squirrel agreements and out of nowhere appeared Darth Maul to draw the raffle. It was discovered that the commitment and loyalty in this sector of the local scum was very low and several attempts were made to pick a winner but to no avail. Another couple of tickets were drawn and over a secure comlink a winner was notified he had won the helmet. Several younglings were also picked for indoctrination and were given some signed pictures of a guy claiming to be Ray Park.
As the occupation day was winding to an end the Troopers were blessed with some pictures in the Death Star Trash Compactor with Ray Parks and some Imperial Shenanigans entailed. As the final stragglers/scum were escorted out of the gates and to the occupation camps the team was faced with the demobilisation of the FOB and a secure transit of the massed boxes Republic Credits. Training kicked in as did the allure of the closest Cantina to get this done fast and was achieved in record time.
The transports were quickly filled with the spoils of war and props and were dispatched without the aid of any Ion Cannon
Many a story was shared that evening of Imperial/Rebel Legion/Mando epicness, trophies of war, battle scars and what to keep from the partners back at home...........
Charity Funds Raised: Republic Credits acquired from the deployment - $7767.20
Injuries: Terror’s hair went a bit greyer and then quickly fell out
Malfunctions: Card prop nearly toppling backwards due to some overly excited public. Several hard armour malfunctions were seen but not discussed (What happens at Nova stays at Nova)
Public Incidents: One member of the public who forgot that the compactor was magnetically sealed and let some crimson out of his eyebrow.
Mission Status: Invasion, Occupation and extraction beyond textbook, the Academies will be teaching this as Galactic Strategy 101 and masses of Republic Credits acquired for thy master for his disposal.
