| Hello,
Initially, I thought about bringing the Lucian Alliance back. However, their organizational structure doesn't fit my new ideals. So I decided to rename as well as reformat the organization into a paramilitary force. It would be called the People's State of True Republic (PSTR). The paramilitary organization engages in several illicit activities, such as drug trade, weapons/ships on black market, slavery and a few more, in order to gain profits in any way possible. However, their true agenda is they wanted to take land, or rather planets, in order to eventually establish a galactic-level government through violent means. You could say they are a hybrid of terrorists and militia. On the galactic-wide level, or rather the highest level, of the organization, there are to be a mobile base of operations. There will also be a branch of splinter cell already residing each on three different planets, all without a strong, central government so that Netan could incite sectarian violence and attempt to take over governments there.
Here's the list of the fleet, including the base of operations itself:
x1 Dreadnaught-class heavy cruiser (to serve as the mobile base of operations) x2 CR70 corvettes (with added armaments like laser cannons and concussion missiles, since the standard ones do not possess any weapons) x24 Cloakshape fighters (2 squadrons of 12 each) x24 R-41 Starchasers (2 squadrons of 12 each) x24 Z-95 Headhunters (2 squadrons of 12 each)
Now that the main force has been listed, I would like to also request the splinter cells serving under PSTR.
I would like to request the same amount of numbers on each splinter cell. Each one would reside on Jabiim, Haruun Kal, and Dantooine:
x100 militia fighters

| I vote to APPROVE the following:
2 CR70 corvettes (with added armaments like laser cannons and concussion missiles, since the standard ones do not possess any weapons) 24 R-41 Starchasers (2 squadrons of 12 each) 24 Z-95 Headhunters (2 squadrons of 12 each) Splinter cells on Jabiim, Haruun Kal, and Dantooine
And I DENY the following:
1 Dreadnaught-class heavy cruiser (to serve as the mobile base of operations) 24 Cloakshape fighters (2 squadrons of 12 each) 100 strong splinter cell on Dantooine
I'm okay with you having a big capital ship as a mobile base of operations, but in this time period the Dreadnaught is actually a brand new ship and only the Republic and a handful of Core Worlds are probably using them, whereas in later time periods you see them everywhere. But you're welcome to choose another ship instead. (I know there's not a great selection in this time period, but I'm sure you can find something. Jamie and Carl can probably give you some ideas too, since they're very familiar with the canon ships in this time period).
As for the splinter cells, I approve of them, except for there being 100 militia in the Dantooine cell. Dantooine is a good target for Netan's purposes; a weak central government without much of a defense force. But the population of Dantooine is so small that RPers including Jaron and Adam have learned that outsiders are usually spotted immediately. And recruiting from among Dantooinians isn't likely since they're not really the fanatical type. I'm okay with you have a splinter cell on Dantooine, but it would need to be much, much smaller to avoid detection.
I'd recommend re-reading Shiva's experience on Dantooine, when he tried and failed to set up a pro-Confederate sleeper cell there. (I can link you to some of those threads in Skype if you'd like).

| Also thanks for the explanation of Netan's source of money. That part sounds good to me.

| Instead of looking over for the right cruiser for Netan to operate as the mobile base of operations, I decided to save myself the hassle. I'm going to put up the stats of a custom-designed cruiser for Netan, and only for him. Nobody else in the entire galaxy would have the blueprints of this ship, and he would have paid an independent shipyard off to build one with the kind of money he have had earned over the years of illicit activities. Here's the design:
Model: Terror-class cruiser
Class: cruiser/capital ship
Length: 1,000 meters
Engine (s): 2 Ion engines, 2 thrusters
Hyperdrive Rating: Class 2.0
Navigation System: Equipped
Armament(s): Dual heavy turbolasers (4), turbolaser cannons (2), Quad laser cannons (2), Point-defense laser cannons (2), Tractor beam generator (1)
Complement: x24 Z-95 Headhunters, x4 shuttles, various support craft
Crew: 800 militiamembers
Passengers: 950
Cargo capacity: 12,000 tons
As of the splinter cell for Dantooine, I was considering whether to replace Dantooine with another planet. However, as you mentioned over Skype, it could be fun. So, I decided to opt to drastically reduce the numbers from 100 to hmm...24? This way, I would split them into four-man teams. Hopefully, this make things much harder to detect.

| I approve of what Jace approved of, caveats included.
However, for your custom ship, which I'm not against, mind you, I would prefer to see it something less than 1,000 meters, especially if it's a custom job. If you prefer, you can have a stock passenger liner or something that's been refit, but for a ship this big, to be honest, it's under-engined and under-armed, if you don't mind my observation.

| Then what would you suggest for the customized ship?

| Yes, that's acceptable to me. Anything else you want to know about the organization or the ship itself?
