As we return to our regularly scheduled program of 3-man SWR on Thursday evenings, things quickly settled down into a routine of pizza, beer, and whiskey. Darth Wood penned in the Hutt garrisons in the Wild Space between a sizable force on Gamorr and the Death Star on Sluis Van. Then he proceeded to whomp on the Rebels.
Despite losing Starbase Barbarella, the Empire kept the Force meter moving to the dark side. A faction card straight led to an astonishingly successful run, cleaning out 8 Rebel garrisons, taking control of the Ison Corridor, the El'Rood Sector, and finishing off with the planetary destruction of Rodia. Rebel Leader Laban was on the ropes with only a handful of systems.
Unfortunately, the attack on Rodia gave the Hutts the opening they needed. A faction card forced all but one legion of Storm Troopers off of Gamorr. Reinforced with their Wild Space sector bonus, 7 legions from a faction card straight, and their standard 3 legions, the Hutts struck out from the Wild Space. Sluis Van, Sullust, Correlia, Byss, and Bakkura fell before the onslaught. In a close-fought battle, Bespin was captured, bringing their resource planet total to nine.
One short of victory, the Hutts then turned their last 5 legions and a bomber from Excharga on Gamorr, held by the last lonely Imperial legion. After a brief but spirited battle, the tenth resource planet fell. Victory Hutts.
