| I would like to request to establish an anti-imperial underground resistance. Obviously, the operations vary but most of the operations will be based on guerilla warfare. The resistance would be named 'Ljaa bal kote," that means "honor and glory" in Mando'a. I'm not sure how big of a military force is appropriate to start with, but I think I'll take a shot at the estimation. I'd like to request that 500 soldiers be the starting numbers of the Ljaa bal kote. It will be composed of a very small band of Mandalorian warriors loyal to myself, a small number of Kaleesh warriors, former and disillusioned Republic soldiers and NRI agents that left the NRDF after the peace treaty was made, and the rest would be any Imperial citizens or anyone else that's eager to take arms up. Since I figured that without a supplier to start out with, we wouldn't be able to afford to purchase any sort of resources necessary for the resistance. It's likely that the resistance would start out with our own personal weapons, vehicles (mostly speeders), and starships (mostly light freighters). This would be a good and interesting starting point of the RP. As the RP goes on, more people will join and the resistance should be able to find a supplier which would then provide better vehicles and starships. I'll be happy to answer any questions the management would have for this request.

| I only have two problems here. One is, would Mandalore allow Anubis to form such a unit and operate by himself? Two is, the use of Kaleesh. My judgement here can be considered personal opinion since I play him, but I think with Dominin's vicious and ruthless pursuit of total war and genocide against even the slightest rebellion on Kalee...Kaleesh would be almost unwilling at this point to fight the Empire, simply out of fear of further persecution and murder.

| I agree that it would be wise to consult with Fenn on this. However, for reasons that I've explained to Anubis OOC but haven't yet explained to the other Mandalorians IC (I'll get on that right now, after this post), this sort of underground resistance movement will probably work quite well with Fenn's plans. Also, I'm okay with "a small number of Kaleesh warriors." I agree with Orion that most of the resistance on the planet has probably been crushed (that, and most Kaleesh apparently respect the Empire for defeating them in battle). But it seems reasonable to me that a few Kaleesh—probably refugees from their home planet and, thus, probably the most disgruntled of them all—would fall in with Anubis's group. However, while I APPROVE of the request on those grounds, my only reluctance is that I feel 500 might be a bit high to start out with. I'd be fine with them gaining more support as they go on (dependent on activity), but I'd feel better if you started out a bit smaller. Perhaps around 50 to 100. Considering the sort of badasses you're putting together in this team, I think 50 to 100 is probably plenty to begin with. What do you guys think?

| I apologize for taking so long to respond. I would be more than happy to agree with Jace on this. I would be totally fine with the resistance starting out with 50 to 100 warriors. I can also consult with Fenn on this the moment the request have been approved. A small part of the resistance would have Kaleesh warriors and Mandalorian warriors, but the rest of the resistance would be probably disgruntled Republic soldiers and anyone that want to free themselves from the Imperials.

| I'm good with this, and with no objection from Orion it looks like you're APPROVED.
