R E S O L V E
The path to the Core worlds is one paved with numerous hyperlanes and world of interest, both of which serve as the perfect guiding lines for Sith forces as the Assembly urges them onwards. As the sweep into the Mid-Rim begins in earnest we have come across worlds which aren't quite as eager to resist our rule as those that we have come across in the past.
Rather the worlds of Ogem and Loovria have wisely chosen the path of diplomacy instead of destruction. But are these offers and agreements all that they seem? Or does their compliance conceal their true intentions to delay and disrupt the will of the Sith?
Regardless of the worlds in question the orders to the fleets and armies sent to expand our reach is much the same as it has been before. Crush all opposition and move forward. Ever forward.
Objective 1: Mafia Protection or Mob Rule
Loovria, a world infamous for its gladiator pits and getaways for the rich of local sectors, has fallen under the gaze of the Sith just as so many others before. Thankfully the inhabitants are far smarter than those that came before and agreed to annexation right as the invasion fleet appeared in orbit. With one caveat.
Between the approach of the Sith and the collapse of local authority and order in the systems around them after the Trade League was dismantled, the slave gladiators and downtrodden of Loovria saw their opportunity and moved to seize it. The invasion fleet sits over not a world united against them but instead a world tearing itself apart, with the rich and poor fighting one another in every street and across every city. Leaders and key figures on both sides have offered themselves up to the Sith should their side win the war so long as the Sith forces intervene on their behalf.
So the invasion force must decide whether to claim Loovria as a decadent entertainment world or burn down the powers that be and establish a warrior world to draw their recruits from. A decision that will be made in the meeting room of the flagship at the head of the invasion fleet, the Star Destroyer Regicide.
Objective 2: Ain't That A Kick
The traders of Ogem have long since prided themselves on being business first and politics second, with them typically holding no real loyalty to anyone but themselves and profit. While this attitude is respectable it is ultimately counterintuitive to Sith goals and as such requires some subtle modification. While the Ogemites have agreed to provide no resistance to Sith rule they have maintained their apolitical and neutral trade policies thus far, policies which will not be tolerated by the Assembly.
Above their world hangs a space station which acts as their main export and import facility. The Ogemites have been preparing a flotilla of goods and luxuries to send out to various factions and worlds across the galaxy, simply business as usual, but this cannot be allowed. Either by sabotage and outright destruction or seizing control and taking them for ourselves, we cannot allow these trade flotillas to leave Ogem’s orbit. Send a message that Ogem now profits for the Sith and the Sith alone.
Objective 3: Bottle Off the Shelf
The more agreeable corporate entities of Ogem have decided to welcome the Sith Order. They've thrown a feast, a party, and they were quite explicit in the guest list. Sith and their significant others or other such close relations. Unfortunately this gathering isn't quite what it seems on the surface, a fact that will soon become very apparent to the Sith in attendance. This particular party has been put together by a cult known as the Eyes of Savidicus. They've begun to pump in two types of gasses into the dining room, one to null the Force if only a little and the second in an attempt to overwhelm the senses of the Sith present.
You see they wish to try and turn the Sith onto one another, and in fact have infiltrated the party with their own shapeshifters. So, Sith, how well do you know your partner and which one of you is the imposter?
