Holonet News Update


Our sources have received information that a renowned elder Wookiee, who was en route to celebrate life day on his home planet of Kashyyyk, has been placed under arrest on suspicion of treason by the Empire. It is alleged that he has information on the whereabouts of a certain hero of the rebellion which our informant believes to be none other than Chewbacca. The Wookiee is currently being held at the Imperial Oasis Retreat on Tatooine. Security at the retreat is already exceptionally tight as Captain Thrawn is currently present at the retreat, entertaining many honoured guests at the annual Red & White ball. Sources claim the suspect Wookiee has been placed under heavy guard inside the base compound and all entrances are apparently being barricaded. A large Rebel force is said to be assembling not far from the retreat to stage a rescue mission which aims to free the Wookiee. Both the Imperial and Rebellion Commanders have stated to our reporters that they will award the renowned Brave Soldier Badge for outstanding courage to those who prove themselves worthy during the upcoming battle.

*Players who have received this badge previously will not be eligible.

We have also received information that a band of freelancers has been gathering near the retreat. It is believed they will join forces and attempt to retrieve a spice shipment which was destined for sale at Captain Thrawn’s Red & White Ball. One witness said the high grade spice shipment was stolen by an outlaw gang earlier today while the clandestine cargo was being unloaded at the Imperial Oasis. The notorious crime lord Jabba the Hutt is rumored to be offering the Brave Soldier Badge for outstanding courage to those who exact revenge on the culprits and return his precious shipment.

*Players who have received this badge previously will not be eligible.

So I see this in the promo for the event: Imperial PVE & PVP combatants report to Imperial Oasis Compound at wp -5288 2682.

I am unfamiliar with this event. What does a PVE combatant bring to the event? I only do PVE so don't want to hold back the pvpers or diminish the event if it is primarily a pvp event.

Thanks

We will do a briefing before event starts to cover the goals, but throughout the event duration we have something planned out for everyone: faction special forces, faction combatants, neutral PVE players, and social players. So bring whoever you like, you will not hold anyone back :)

[butthurt rant]

While the event was great, I still don't understand why we lost. All the barricades were broken down and all pve targets were long dead well before either or Rebel NPCs were killed or the Imperial Interrogators arrived...

I was watching the entire time and while the exterior barricades were gone, the inside of the compound was never actually cleared out. Rebels made a good push and cleared the NPC's outside the compound but never pushed their main force inside. Gave the opportunity for the Imps to regroup and push back to the Rebel base.

Thanks to all who turned up for the event. Congratulations to the Imperials for managing to defend the base until the Wookiee was escorted from the compound. The Rebels fought bravely and managed to blow up the barricades to the main entrance but didn't succeed in clearing enough Imperial troops inside the base to allow for the final barricade blocking the cellblock to be destroyed. Once the Empire pushed back and cleared out the Rebel camp it was all over. A clear win for the Empire. Congratulations as well to the brave band of freelancers that managed to reclaim Jabba's spice shipment. Good job!

My special thanks to Niffer & Weedie and an extra special thank you to Ivojedi for playing our Wookiee captive. See you all next time :)

Does your Geo suck? I didn't see you use it. Or did no one have stun layers?

Stun was pretty mandatory. But at the time I only had a combat toon with a half finished BH mission template with no geo cert and no x4xx pistol which made for hitting nothing. Did not even have one macro on the bar lol. Will have rifleman ready for next time.

Even gimped still had fun participating. Think everyone should come to the events no matter their skill level or gear.
