*Transmission From Imperial High Command*
FROM: Qymaen Jai Sheelal A.K.A. GRIEVOUS
TO: Imperial Regional Commanders


Commanders,

It seems we are on the same side now. There is nothing simple about this, both the Confederacy and the Republic were manipulated and betrayed by the Jedi. We must now work together to eliminate this threat and I will be utilizing all of my resources, tactics, and intellect for this singular goal of finally eliminating the Jedi and the traitorous clones and bringing peace to this galaxy. It seems the Emperor trusts me as well, for I will be your direct liaison with Imperial High Command for the following stages of this war.

As you now know from the holo reports, the Jedi and the clones still loyal to them have begun carrying out attacks on multiple systems throughout the galaxy. In this early stage of the war we need to strike first, strike fast, and strike hard into the heart of key systems, before our enemies can take root and twist the local populations to their cause. I have reviewed each of your personal files and battle reports as well you each come highly recommended from Grand Moff Tarkin to head out our new Order 66 task force. And a recommendation from Tarkin himself is not to be taken lightly. He was a cunning adversary and has great designs for the Empire, ones including each of you. Along with promotions for those successful in their campaigns. Now as to your assignments, they are as follows:

Commander Amadeus,
The Republic forces in the Endor sector have taken refuge on a forest moon after a battle with Imperial loyalists. Our navy pursued them to the moon and eliminated their fleet but not before the Republic forces disembarked and concealed themselves in the thick forests of this world. They are so deeply entrenched that what attempts the naval force have made to smoke out the survivors have only led to one-sided losses on our behalf. We believe the reason they are fighting so hard is that there are key members of the Jedi Council and former Senate on this planet among the survivors. I have read that you are an expert in covert operations as well as jungle warfare from your time on Felucia. As such I am sending you to reinforce the navy units and ambush the survivors. Take no prisoners and burn the forest if you must.

Commander Juiceman,
We have received a strange offer from a pirate captain in the Florrum system. Apparently this Hondo Ohnaka has captured several jedi and wishes to offer them to us for a "great price"... I want you to investigate his offer and see if it is legitimate. Whether it is or isn't. Bring the pirates in-line.


Commander JerJerrod4,
I am sending you to the site of one of the many forward operating bases that has been lost from contact since the outbreak of the civil war. This fortress in particular was equipped with state of the art turbo laser technology that was utilized to protect a powerful prisoner being held by the former Republic. A bounty hunter known as Embo. Due to the alliance with Dooku and as such access to the Confederate war coffers, the Empire has become the rich side of this conflict and has secured permanent long-term contracts with both the bounty hunters guild and Black Sun. I want you to travel to the planet, eliminate any residual Republic Forces and those Clones that do not surrender to your forces, then make the same offer to Embo. His skill is nearly unmatched in the galaxy and I believe that once the dust settles we will be in need of skilled hunters more than brute force.


Commander DarthMaim,
I am sending you to Oroboro, in hopes of securing an alliance with the Killiks. They are a race of insect warriors who at one point had an empire that spanned the entire galaxy, and that even now has the largest ground force of all of the independent galactic entities. As of late we have received reports that their queen has been producing warriors at a rate that will soon make them either a threat that can no longer be ignored or an ally strong enough to bring us victory, if they can be brought in line. Go and bring us their creatures to fight alongside our clones, or burn their nest to the ashes like the rest of their fallen empire.

Commander Lafcadio,
We have recently received reports that the Republic has dispatched a sizeable task force to the planet Tatooine. Why they are focused on such a desolate back-world planet even I do not know. It could have to do with the Hutts which have remained silent about which side to align themselves with. I want you to take the third fleet and find out what the Republic wants with this desert planet.


Commander CerousMutor,
I am sending you to Cloud City to secure our Tibanna gas reserves. This war will be won not with men or great schemes but by attrition, credits, and supplies. This mining operation is key to secure our victory over the galaxy. Go and bring us victory.

Commander DarkLordVerjal,
In this time of civil war, the citizens of he Empire are confused and the treachery of the Jedi combined with their mind tricks have caused many to doubt which side they should support. The planet Ithor has made a the first openly declared statement of support for the Republic. And as such they have chosen the first major world of focus for our military campaign. Go to the planet and... convince... the Ithorians they have chosen poorly. How you do this is entirely up to you.

I will be moving to secure one of the major Fringe assets that has yet to choose a side in our civil war. One of the Emperor's agents codename The Hand has already infiltrated their operations and assures us that this Talon Karrde has a communications and intelligence network that puts even the one on Imperial Center to shame. I will personally secure this asset.



Each of you has the next twenty-four standard hours to inform me of any special requests or allocations to complete your assigned missions. Otherwise you will be given what is available. Prepare yourselves commanders and we shall bring this civil war to an end swiftly.

Grievous out
