Excerpt from Cdr. Bannon’s log: More was happening on Devaron, than I was led to believe. So naturally that's where my orders took me next. I had dispatched a band of bounty hunters a week earlier, to root out unsanctioned New Republic mercenaries. It seemed the hunt had been successful.
Some time later on Devaron, on the outskirts of the city Plaeree…
Zan Shysa: Cdr. Bannon! These scum are the only ones we could bring back alive. Djina and I killed another two while engaging the encampment, and another one had to be put down enroute back to the city.
Cdr. Bannon: Ah Miss Shysa! You continue to deliver!
*Commander Bannon nods to his one of his troopers*
Cdr. Bannon: Have the prisoners sent to my ship. I will see to the interrogation personally.
DT-F88: Yes Sir!

In search of a fellow warrior in armor, the Mandalorian arrives in the small town of Mos Pelgo, deep in the deserts of Tatooine. But what he finds is not a fellow Mandalorian, but a local hero and protector in a legendary armor as well as a ravenous beast that terrorizes the town.

My entry for The Mandalorian Collab season 2 and a build I had a lot of fun with. I hope you like it and stay tuned for more party coming soon, build by some of the best builders over on Instagram! Btw who spots the embarrassing little mistake I made in the representation of the scene?
This model will make a fine addition to my collection 😁
Grievous is one of my favourite movie character designs of all time! I wanted to finally recreate him on a bigger scale.
Hope you enjoy!

Excerpt from Cdr. Bannon’s log: Before heading back to the core, I had a personal matter to attend to. For some time I wanted to investigate an old lead. A deserted imperial installation and prison compound. Perfect for an operation of my own. However, something didn’t add up. The installation’s import manifest listed prisoners, and regular ordnance, but the cargo pads were filled with kyber crystal containers. More was happening on Dosuun than I had anticipated.
For now a full investigation would have to wait. I planned to return to Dosuun when my duties allowed.

This had been on my to-do list for a loooong time. I look forward to explore this remote backwater planet again. Sometime soon hopefully.
Mission Log from Cpt. Bannon: Our original mission was to ensure the imperial energy supply from the drilling platforms on the surface of Sarapin. However, things took an unexpected turn, when we received a direct holo transmission from Moff Barthol. Barthols number one agent, Lord Amus has revealed that Senator Belrus is in league with the New Republic and that he is secretly scheming to undermine the Commenor Remnant. Personally I’ve always felt that Commenor has been a little too lenient with the New Rebuplic. Sometimes you’ve got to wonder - what happened to the glory of the Empire?
Log update: We have received word that the treacherous Senator Belrus is in fact on Sarapin. How convenient that he is meeting with the administrator overseeing Sarapin mining. We have been instructed to rendezvous with Agent Amus and his men on the surface in order to capture the senator and return him to imperial custody.
A few moments later on a landing platform at the Sarapin mining administrations headquarters…
Cpt. Bannon: Senator! STOP! There’s nowhere to run! You are under arrest for treason against the Empire!
Administrator Shatul: Kill hime! Kill ze traitor!
Agent Amus: Sure would save us a lot of paperwork! But... Our job is to bring him in.
Belrus: Yes! I surrender! Take me back to Commenor… I demand to talk to High Command!
Cpt. Bannon: Right awa…
Agent Amus: Would you like a cup of Jawa Juice as well? Your imperial rights was revoked the moment you sided with the Republic scum! Take him away!

I've spent a little more time on this build - let me know what you think! A few inspirational shoutouts to: ARKUM ELO and Thorsten Bonsch!
Excerpt from Cdr. Bannon’s log: The intel I uncovered on Scarif keeps unearthing secrets. With the assistance of a so-called Dark Side Adept, we decrypted fragments of something she called a Sith Star Chart. The map revealed the coordinates to one of the late Emperor’s observatories in the deep beneath the surface of Byss.
I have few words for what we found. Even though I acknowledge there is more to the stars than meets the eye, I’ve always avoided the force.
Here I was standing amidst the Emperor's deepest secrets, and once again face-to-face with the Emperor's sorcerer Lord Vader. Although by the looks of it, only his suit. This dark figure still gives me the chills. Red crystals, scrolls, and other ancient junk.
Cdr. Bannon’s log - continued: The writing on the screens is gibberish to me, but maybe I can find a translator...
Cdr. Bannon’s log - continued: Junk or not. Some of these relics intrigue me. I may just bring a few for further study...

I've had this one in the backlog for awhile... I really want to explore more of the Emperor's secrets.

Mission Log from Cpt. Markland: My efforts as liaison to the Hutts has not gone unnoticed. Cdr. Bannon has put me in charge of his personal intelligence affairs. My first order is rather peculiar. Gather intel on a creature that most of all sounds like a myth, or best described as a demonic Rancor.
I’ve tracked Lt. Ian Harkona, ex-imperial special forces to the planet Rishi. Besides being a legend among imperial trackers, Ian Harkona has gained a reputation as one of the galaxy’s finest big game hunters. His experience may help, but my hope is that a hefty amount of credits, and the prospect of hunting a legendary beast will persuade him to join us.

Another entry in the Factions RPG over at Eurobricks (www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/176419-f...). Heavily inspired by the SWTOR version of the planet Rishi. LEt me know what you think.
The ZC-20, usually nicknamed „Bulker“, was a heavy speeder bike used by the Grand Army of the Republic for transporting weapons and ammunition on the battlefield. Featuring a powerful repulsor, it could lift and carry up to 300 kg of goods. Of course, such a heavy load came with cut backs in speed and agility. Yet, the bike was far superior to land speeders on uneven terrain.

Another speeder bike, which came as a side product when building the Z-44. Bigger builds are on their way, too.
Excerpt from Cdr. Bannon’s log: Since I was already in the system, high command tasked me with a covert operation on the planet Gorse. The mission was to infiltrate a New Republic thorilide refinery, and plant a transmitter spike for future operations. This was usually a mission for a small crew like Reaper Squad, but ever since Nadiri, and Rae Sloane’s strike on Gorse, New Republic security has tightened. This meant I was to spearhead a diversion, disguised as a diplomatic mediator between Zeltron suppliers and the refinery boss, while Reaper Squad and a stormtrooper platoon from the 88th infiltrated the installation.
Cdr. Bannon: Greetings Dr. Sihlbar. I’m here to deliver a message from Minister Freyi An’zeli.
The two New Republic security officers flinched as Cdr. Bannon held out a small holoprojector, and a beautiful (by humanoid standards) flickering figure came to life mid-air…
Minister Freyi: Dr.! I will dispense of the pleasantries and get straight to business. For too long have you and your new government exploited the hospitality of Zeltron. We will block all baradium shipments rerouted from the Zel system until you agree to Cdr. Bannon’s terms…
The Zeltron paused for a moment...
Minister Freyi: Should you choose not to agree, Zeltron will turn to the aid of the Imperial Triumvirate!
The Mon Calamari Dr. looked from side to side, blinking a few times before muttering…
Dr. Sihlbar: Tshis es non negoseable? Tshe New Rebublic does not answer to imperial threatsh.
A transmission crackled through to Cdr. Bannon’s hidden ear-pierce…
Lt. Sin Veruna: Commander. I’m in position. Ready to take out the scum on your signal!
Cdr. Bannon turned his attention to the Mon Calamari...
Cdr. Bannon: You can kiss your Baradium supply goodbye.
Lt. Delp Wep: Not s-so hasty. A renegotiation of the agreement with Zeltron sh-should take place with the Gorse refinery administration, not with the refineries directly. I suggest you make an appointment with the board. We can escort you to the administration building.
Cdr. Bannon: That won’t be necessary!
The Commander nodded, and the low muffled sound of two silent sniper bolts - PZZHAM - BZZHAMM - is drowned out by the mechanical hum of the refinery...

Excerpt from Cdr. Bannon’s log: With the ISD Crescendo already stationed in Ambria’s orbit, it made little sense for me to interfere with the Ambria mission. Bravura squad had done a fine job assisting in establishing an imperial outpost on the planet.
However, Cpt. Markland had heard rumors of an old imperial installation hidden below the surface of Ambria. Sure enough, hidden in the jagged canyons, a few hundred klicks south of Bravura’s location, Cpt. Markland found an old Imperial mining installation. Her assessment was that the mine holds valuable minerals worth salvaging, and the mine itself could prove valuable if brought back to full operating capacity. In any case, this installation may serve future projects as a base of operation.
Excerpt from Cdr. Bannon’s log: Our next mission has brought us to Quarzite. For some reason one of our research departments has been involved in a high priority project, and they are in need of crystals for some kind of weapon.
Our mission was to find a viable location for a base of operation, where our scientists could validate the purple Quarzite crystal.
Cdr. Bannon: Lord Kadus. Come in. Transmitting my current coordinates. This area has a high density of crystals, and is accessible enough for the crew.
Lord Kadus: Roger that Commander! We will proceed to the location immediately.
Cdr. Bannon: What do you think Lord Kadus?
Lord Kadus: Commander. This site will be perfect for a mining operation. Let’s hope these crystals are receptive for our synthesis process. Cdr. Voluth! How’s the test coming along?
Cdr. Voluth: Just a few moments Lord. My men are working on it.
Lt. Scientist Ralvand: Commander Volut, Sir. These crystals are crude, but the test puts them well within the viability spectrum! These crystals will work!
Lord Kadus: Excellent!!! Begin setting up the mining site immediately! Commander Bannon, good work. You should return to High Command. They’ve requested you personally.
Cdr. Bannon: Yes Lord.
Excerpt from Cdr. Bannon’s log: My plans of returning to Kalist VI were postponed yet again, when we received a distress transmission broadcast on imperial frequencies. Somehow the former Black Sun Vigo, Lord Xarr, had managed to slice into imperial comms. His plea for imperial assistance was not entirely without merit. He had an offer we could not refuse.
Aiding the former crime lord, meant a detour to one of the galaxy’s filthiest shadowports. As if the crime-ridden backwater planet wasn’t bad enough, the rendezvous location was the stinky swamp wharf in the slaves district of New Coronet.
*The overwhelmingly nauseating smells of fish and flesh for sale made it difficult to concentrate. This was the perfect hiding place for a crime lord who doesn’t want to be found.*
Lord Xarr: Commander Bannon. Welcome to Trigalis. Under different circumstances we would be drinking and dining in my estate, but you Imperials have put a stop to my hospitality, and forced me into hiding. Ironic that you have no choice, but to help me out of the mess you’ve caused.
Cdr. Bannon: You mistake our interest for urgency. The Imperial Triumvirate has no needs for anything an exiled crime lord has to offer. However, what you are offering has intrigued our intelligence headquarters enough to play along. For now.
*Cdr. Bannon pauses, closes his eyes, and refocuses his thoughts*
Cdr. Bannon: Admittedly your intel and star chart, is both valuable assets, which is why I have agreed to assist you. On my terms.
*The commander looks up and stares at the aging crime lord*
Cdr. Bannon: When I leave this rotball I will transmit new coordinates for a safe rendezvous. Send someone you trust. In the meantime you will guarantee that imperial operations on Trigalis will meet no resistance.
Lord Xarr: You’re leaving me here?! My safety was part of the deal!!!
Cdr. Bannon: We will extract you, when your emissary comes through.
*For a few moments, the speechless crime lord gazed into the murky waters. He turned to the commander and nodded. There was nothing else to do...*

Admiral Oris Ski is hopefully somewhere inside. We’ll continue scans from the outside to locate any prison blocks but the temple is massive and truly gorgeous. Intricate lights and patterns make up its walls. It’ll be a shame to cut through the east side. All the life forms appear to be on the top floor, but there are most likely droids roaming the lower ones. We’ll need to lay low as we travel upwards.

Hey, I'm back with a new MOC, and its Star Wars this time. This was built for the latest RebelLUG collab, The Laceropes Mission and it was displayed at Brickworld.
I had fun making a detailed and interesting landscape surrounding the temple, which probably should have been bigger (my bad), but I am pleased with the final result.
Brickworld was also a lot of fun, was great to meet people I have never seen irl before, and hang out with the RL squad. If you wanna see my loot, go on my instagram and check it out there.
By midnight we had made our way through the library maze to the crypts. Even at these depths, the red sands of Ossus crawled along every corner, and crevasse. The air was stale but cool, and the breeze shifted as we made our way through the corridors.
We had lost the signal to Major Hagar, but they had their orders; Extract any holo information on file J3-I G8. We would rendezvous with them back at camp.
After coming through a few holo vaults without luck. We found something in a southbound corridor. A partially working holo terminal containing exactly what we came for. Getting this information back to base meant we could leave Ossus. For now at least.

Excerpt from Cdr. Bannon’s log: As a result of the Imperial Triumvirate corewards expansion several ex-imperials have pledged their loyalty to the new unified Imperial Remnant. Some join existing companies as senior or veteran commanders, others have a, let’s say a more unorthodox way of re-enlisting…
Somewhere in the colonies region a band of ex-imperial hunters have donated the trophy of their latest prey, to the newly established Imperial Museum of Science, as a symbol of their loyalty, and a gift as they re-enlist into the Imperial Triumvirate.
Sr. Archivist Zeena Cain has been responsible for the installation and display of the incredible skull of a Krayt Dragon. Unfortunately the mighty horns were damaged and broke off during the battle between the Dragon and the hunters.

„I’m out!“, I screamed as I dove into cover. Shab, this was bad. We had not expected opposition before reaching the city limits, especially not in this force forsaken jungle! But then, out of nowhere, this di’kutla commando droids appeared. They had isolated us from the rest of our strike team and pushed us to the edge of a little landing pad. Bab, bap, bap! Sergeant Linx was hammering staccato salves of deece fire into the nearest clanker’s chest. I slung my rifle back over my shoulder. Where the shab was my knife? „Command, this is CT-8304, strike team theta. Hard contact! I repeat, hard contact! Sector 4.7. We need immediate backup!“ I shouted into the comlink. „Argh!“ A flesh of light passed me and Kilroy dropped to the floor, a smoking hole, where his chest should have been. „Man down!“ I screamed, but there was no-one to hear me. Linx was still laying down fire, as I pulled the remains of Kilroy to cover. „I repeat, we need backup, now!“ But I knew it was too late. Linx’s deece spat out its last bullet and he too drew his sword….

10 BBY

The Empire’s lust for resources led them to the swamp infested planet Mimban and, though the Mimbanese had previously been allied with the Republic, the Empire engaged in vigorous trench warfare with the MLA (Mimbanese Liberation Army). A section of the 224th Imperial Armored Division - shown here - had been ordered to clear out and hold the Southern Marshlands. They had previously prepared basic entrenchments for Mimbanese assaults but were overrun and destroyed leading to this aggressive Imperial action. From the vacuum-like mud to decomposing bodies, the Mimban campaign saw some of the most atrocious combat in the galaxy.
.
.
I hope you like this build. It took me a bit longer than I had hoped but I think it turned out well. I’m pleased with the overall muddy feel that I lacked in my previous Mimban build from a few years ago. I was lucky enough to get my hands on 4 of the 2005 Imperial Inspection stormtroopers for this build as well. I think the trench could have been improved a bit but I also like the more run down and less-fortified feel versus what we saw in the Solo film. Lights used are from @brickstuff, capes from @capes4minifigs, some custom parts are from CB and TMC. Hope you all like it. Also sorry for not having an AT-DT on here, I completely cannibalized my other one nearly a year ago.

Excerpt from Cdr. Bannon’s log: I’m puzzled by the narrow minds of high ranking ex-imperials who lay claims to imperial property and feel the need to establish their petty kingdoms and sanctuaries. This should be a time to stand together. Since they will not unite and cannot be reasoned with we will bring them to justice.
Intelligence reports that a previously forgotten imperial outpost on Hoth is being raided by ex-imperial scavengers. Since Reaper Squad is unavailable, this is the perfect task to test the mettle of our newly reborn Imperial Super Commando unit. The task is direct: Search and Destroy!
The destabilization of Mon Cala had spread to the edges of the sector, and had reached as far as Lothal. Trusting the adamant support of Lothal, New Republic officials and security forces had been reallocated to other Outer Rim systems deemed more in need. Lothal had taken big strides towards establishing fully independent governmental departments, true to New Republic ideals. Or so they thought.
Lothal Defense Systems was a local privately owned security force that has been struggling to establish an interstellar defense grid across the Lothal sector. With several unanswered inquiries for personnel, and technology to the New Republic, the LDS was growing weary to put it mildly.
Lothal Defense Systems Headquarters
The tension in the room was palpable. The expression on the guard's resembled surprise, or more accurately, disbelief. Only the hum of the consoles, and the careful smirk of the deputy director broke the tension. It had been a long time since Imperials had been so warmly welcomed on Lothal.
“Welcome to Lothal, Colonel” The smirk on the deputy director stayed, as if painted on. “I’ve been looking forward to our meeting.” The colonel signaled to the troopers to stay in place at the entrance, and walked up to the deputy’s desk. At his side was a nervous-looking Mon Calamari, seemingly more interested in his datapad than anything else.
“Thank you Director. I understand you’ve been briefed? That should save us some time.” The deputy director nodded, and turned to her guards. “You can leave the room now.” It took a few seconds to sink in. The guards were clearly not in agreement with the latest turn of events.
As soon as the colonel, the Mon Calamari and the director had the room to themselves, the colonel looked down and continued. “We have brought the personnel and the tech you've requested.” The director smiled, while the colonel looked directly at her. “We’ve adjusted our plans slightly. All long range communications are disabled immediately. We need all clearance codes to the defense grid, and your personal authorization to move the ships into Lothal’s orbit.” The director's smile had faded back to the initial smirk. She nodded, and turned to her console. Flicked a few buttons, and looked at the Mon Calamari. “Comms are disabled. You should have access to the grid now.” The colonel nodded to the Mon Calamari. He had what he needed, and he left the room, while adjusting approach vectors for capital ships on his datapad.
The sun had begun setting, and the colonel and the director walked to the back window of the office. The colonel seemed less tense. He turned from the window, facing the director. “Let us hope that the dawn will inspire the people to embrace the new Lothal.”

Cdr. Bannon’s Log: Scarif has been a somewhat heated conversation topic among high command as of late. Even though not unanimous, Scarif has been decided as a strategic priority for the Triumvirate expansion. I’ve taken it upon myself to inspect Cdr. Voluth’s mining operation in the former Aurek-14 excavation site.
Most of Aurek-14 was buried in a mining accident around 0 BBY. If my theory is correct, Aurek-14 should still hold some of the best kept secrets of the Tarkin Initiative. Personally I’d like to have a look myself. An inspection is the perfect cover, and the perfect opportunity to test my new Eta-2 TIE Interceptor.
Cdr. Voluth: Commander Bannon, we are honored by your presence.
Cdr. Bannon: You may dispense with the pleasantries Commander. I’m here to inspect the mining operation!
Cdr. Voluth: I assure you Cdr. Bannon, my men are working as hard as they can.
Cdr. Bannon: Good... And the salvage operation?
Cdr. Voluth: We have managed to salvage roughly 200 containers of kyber.
Cdr. Bannon: Excellent! Shuttle the containers to my ship immediately. I will inspect a few other sites before I return to my ship. Commander, I want daily reports on the operation.
Cdr. Voluth: Of course sir!

Prologue:
Excerpt from Cdr. Bannon’s log: Shortly after returning to the ISD Manticore, an Imperial shuttle had docked in the hangar bay, and was to transport myself to an unspecified location, by direct orders of the Triumvirs. This was most irregular, and only the second time I was summoned by them directly.
Onboard the shuttle I had some time to reflect. My impression was that the Imperial Triumvirate had been rather successful in uniting the banners of several smaller imperial remnants in the Outer Rim. Even a handful of worlds in the Colonies and the Deep Core was siding with Imperial ideology. Although not publicly of course. How much longer could this go on without any major New Republic confrontation. I knew the new regime had its hands full with establishing a new government, but I had not expected them to turn a blind eye to Imperial activities.
Onboard the Imperal Super Star Destroyer, The Resurrector - Conference Room
Several Imperial senators and commanders stand around a black conference table. Imperial stormtroopers stand guard around the room. Senator Vancar, a hip slimy-looking Senator, is speaking.
Senator Vancar: Until the traitors are dealt with we are vulnerable. The New Republic is getting information from high ranking members of the Imperial Triumvirate. They’re a bigger threat than you realize. Even the Mandalorians see this as their moment to retaliate!
The bitter Moff Pantoloc shifts nervously.
Moff Pantoloc: Dangerous to your trade agreements, Senator, not to the Imperial Triumvirate!
Senator Vancar: The New Republic will continue to close in on our activities until…
Suddenly all heads turn as Senator Vancar’s speech is cut short and the Supreme Moff Barthol, one of the Triumvirs, enters. He is followed by two Royal Guards. All of the commanders stand and bow before the old, evil-looking moff as he takes his place at the center of the room. The Royal Guards stand behind him.
Supreme Moff Barthol: The traitors have been dealt with, and the New Republic will no longer be of any concern to us. From now on our operations will be run decentralized, from each Imperial Remnant in the united Imperial Triumvirate. The New Republic does not have the resources to monitor Imperial activities from the Core to the Outer Rim.
Moff Pantoloc: That's impossible! How will we maintain control without a centralized command.
Supreme Moff Barthol: Regional commanders now have direct control of Imperial operations in their territory. These commanders will operate independently, with the directive of the Triumvirs, and High Command.
Senator Vancar: And what of the traitors? If the Republic has obtained knowledge of our plans, it is possible, however unlikely, that they might introduce additional sanctions against imperial activities.
Grand Prince Serion: If your real concern is vacancies in High Command, I assure you they will be filled! Tell me senator; When have sanctions ever stopped us?
Supreme Moff Barthol: Enough! This is not a committee!

Cdr. Raath: The freck was that?!
Cdr. Bannon: I’ve heard rumors about these messengers. They were a part of the Emperor's last command, sent to high ranking officers, after our loss at Endor. Seems there were more than one last order…
Excerpt from Cdr. Bannon’s log: After a few weeks of putting out fires, I finally found myself back on Kalist VI. Nothing more than your average desert rock, but it felt good to be on imperial soil again. It was time to initiate the next phase of Operation: Nightwing and brief the different expedition commanders on their destinations and mission. Most of these expeditions were simple reconnaissance missions to potential Imperial outpost worlds. A few of these however, had a much deeper significance to the Imperial Triumvirate…
I made it back to Triumvirate headquarters just in time to brief exploration crew Aurek 7 on their primary objectives once arriving on their world…
I had high expectations for the crew assembled by Cpt. Markland. Not the elite candidates, of course. The crew had to be selected from expendable personnel. However, the metrics of the 14 crew-members all seemed to fit the mission.
