| Welcome to the roleplay!
Just a few questions I'd like to ask as someone who's fairly invested in the roleplay.
On the Vanguard Group
1. What possible interest does the Empire have in allowing 5 Outer Rim worlds quit the Empire? - even if they seceded during the pre-Clone Wars I get the impression the Empire is rather opposed on principle to alignments of non-member worlds. 2. Why would five tiny worlds be "more trouble than they are worth" if they've got capital assets? The Empire doesn't have an awful lot to do with its doom legions. 3. Why would the Empire allow a "more trouble than they are worth" (read: Ignored) power to expand into Imperial space? It has no interest in allowing this. 4. The Empire is hardly lacking for "independent mercenaries" or "useful proxies". There are over half a dozen Imperial aligned satellite states I can think of off the top of my head (all larger and more significant than this one) What does this particular faction provide that existing allies do not? 5. Why would a non member state be allowed representation in the Imperial Senate? Surely representation defines membership. 6. How is it governed?
On the Vanguard Ships
1. I don't buy worlds this small having shipyards of the caliber to churn out these ships or design them. Who designed them and who builds them? 2. A perennial complaint - you need to make the crew an order of magnitude bigger. 3. Why are the fighters so obscenely heavily armed?
It's a nice idea, but to me it doesn't fit, especially within an Imperial Sector - maybe it'd be allowed if it was outside of any Sector and was a few colonies of a few million that paid tribute to the Empire without being members in exchange for being ignored.. a world of a billion inside a sparsely populated sector? Doesn't quite gel.
So as I say. Good idea.. could do with a little reworking in my opinion, but it'd be great to get it going in some shape or form.

| Due to the fact that the Vanguard is still undergoing construction and tweaking with the help of the sites admins. I must refrain from posting answers to these questions as the final product itself my in fact answer the questions asked. Until then though, thank you for the welcome.
