The Grand Galactic Empire was founded in B.R. 2009 with the express goal of building an awesome blue-white SHIP. Prior to Ragbablok, the titular head of the empire was the immortal Golden Emperor, who often rode into battle flanked by his Jedi Cavalry. Law and order is now maintained by the Imperial Navy, consisting of five regional fleets: Western Coast, Mon Stella, Core Alpha, Core Omega, and Exploratory. The Western Coast Fleet patrols and protects the border between the Empire and the Council of 500.
Shown here is the WC Fleet Command Group, commanded by Admiral Oswald Lyons. His fleet flagship is the Katana-class destroyer/carrier Artemis. The remaining units in the Imperial Navy's standard battlegroup are: 2 Chickadee interceptors, 2 Valkyrie I space superiority fighters, a Valkyrie II heavy fighter, a Seagull support shuttle, and several ground support vehicles. Lyons is a war hawk whose aggressive attitude has often led to tense diplomatic situations, but has also effectively prevented incursions by Counciliar forces. His fleet boasts the most skilled pilots and tactical officers in the entire navy and joint operations are usually commanded from the Artemis's CIC.
Army Wishlist:
- A light corvette, something around 80 studs long. (In progress)
-
-
- More dakka on the Artemis (Refit incoming)
- Ground vehicles
- Valkyrie refit
