to deal with is, in fact, dealt with permanently. If an

that the threat is neutralized.

IMPERIAL MOFF [NEMESIS]

The title of Moff is one that has tremendous histori-
cal significance, but like so many other traditions, it
has been completely co-opted by the Empire for its
own purposes. Since the establishment of the Calactic
Empire, the title of Moff has become a military and
political term used to designate the Imperial official
ultimately responsible for the governance of an en-
tire sector. Being appointed to a position as a Moff
is an incredibly impressive achievement, one that is
not easily overshadowed. Although there were slightly
more than one thousand sectors during the height of
the Republic, the Empire has changed some of them
significantly and the present number of sectors is a
point of confusion among many.

Imperial Moffs have a reputation for arrogance

and elitism, and in many cases, it is a reputation

that is well earned. Some are die-hard patriots

and rule with incredible attention to both detail

and the letter of the law, while others prefer to

oversee their sectors in a manner that is more ben-

eficial to them personally. The Emperor does not

seem to care as long as individual Moffs can main-

tain order in their assigned regions. Those who do

not can find themselves quickly replaced.

hit one ally or helpless enemy he is engaged with until

the beginning of his next turn).

Critical 3; Range [Medium]; Stun setting).

IMPERIAL NAVAL TROOPER [MINION]

Typically, only the larger fleet vessels in the Impe-

rial Navy carry contingents of the Imperial army.

Therefore, the Imperial Navy maintains its own

cadre of troops to serve as security forces aboard

ship and to enact and defend against boarding ac-

tions if need be. In some cases, Imperial Naval

troopers may also be deployed groundside, al-

though they are worse equipped than their Impe-

rial Army comrades. Imperial Navy troopers are

typically equipped with reliable blaster pistols,

small enough to be wielded easily in confined

spaces aboard a ship and unable to fire a powerful

enough blast to cause an unexpected hull breach.

They also tend not to be equipped with heavy

weapons or explosives for the same reason.

Skills (group only): Perception, Ranged [Light).

Talents: None.

Abilities: None.

Equipment: Blaster pistol (Ranged [Light); Damage 6;

Critical 3; Range [Medium]; Stun setting), blast vest

and helmet (+ 1 soak).

IMPERIAL NAVAL OFFICER [RIVAL]

Officers in the Imperial Navy are highly trained, often

at a military academy. Most of their duties naturally

fall into the category of ship-bound activities, moni-

toring the hundreds or thousands of personnel neces-

sary to maintain the massive capital-scale ships the

navy depends upon. However, it is also possible that

officers are deployed at the head of naval troopers,

taking part in ship-to-ship actions against pirates or

independent vessels or even in sorties on the ground.

In these cases, most naval officers prefer to lead from

the rear, using their superior training and experience

to direct the activities of their subordinates. Despite

their reluctance to "get their hands dirty," it is unwise

to underestimate naval officers.
