Battle 88: "Bothan Tricks"

Designer: Emil Beli
GN Beli/Tornado 1-2/ISD Challenge


One Corellian Transport carrying citizens from Coruscant, has escaped from it. We on ISD Challenge accepted their asylum. They told us that Coruscant is made New Republic's touristic planet, and they employed citizens of former Empire on hardest and filthyest jobs man can imagine, not to mention humiliation and harrastment which is everyday part of inhabitants life.

High command decided to conquer Coruscant and free their citizens of Rebellian terror. Coruscant has much engineers which have to be employed on their capabilities. Besides, they will be all loyal to Emperors Hammer.

Plan is not so simple and requires major firepower. Coruscant is surrounded with many Rebel systems and two Bothan so attack is planned carefuly because we are aware that New Republic will never give large money income easily.

Attack consists from 2 phases:

PHASE I

In Phase one, we'll have 3 simultanious attacks to prevent Rebels from reinforceing Coruscant with many starships. This will be done in this way:

We are going to attack Bothan stronghold Nis A2. To hold it, they will ask rebels to help from nearby Gilmore System, because Bothan forces in Rimman system are insufficiant to defend it properly. That will draw Rebel Firepower from Gilmore and make it busy so thay cannot put any forces to defend Coruscant. It also, logicly, prevent Bothans to help Rebels.

Attack on Mylok shall have same effect as attack on Nis A2. It will draw rebel forces from Haddar system and trap them defending Mylok.

Main attack in this phase will be at Trinsee and it will be attacked by our main forces. Trinsee will be reinforced from Coruscant making our next phase easier to accomplish.

PHASE II
--------

Our main forces from Trinsee will attack Coruscant. We have 2 major problems in Phase II.

1. Rebel will reinforce from Nisler and Kille 88 systems, we couldn't attack.

2.We have to organise complete clearing of surrounding systems in order to secure Coruscant.

Note: There is a surprise in mission 5 and 6
