The wedge shaped ship loomed in a standard planetary orbit around the forest moon of Endor, a stark contrast to the otherwise quiet scene. Today was the first day of the Empire's new mock warfare training program and as such, the entire planet was being utilized in an attempt to make the simulation as realistic as possible. All weapons were set to a special setting of stun - being shot would not result in death, but instead a temporary loss of consciousness and bruising over the location of the blast. General Arakin paced back and forth across the bridge of the Empire's vessel as he patiently waited for the beginning of the simulation.
"Captain," the General said to his first officer, "please relay the message I drafted earlier to all participating members of the simulation." The young man nodded and moved over to the communicatins console and began to type the instructions regarding the simulation that General Arakin had drafted earlier that morning.

- Re: Mock Battle
All army personel participating in this training exercise will be starting off on the Gorgon. This includes close air support. Opposing forces (SpecOps, Gov't) will be located planetside at the Imperial Academy.
- Objective: Planetside forces must successfully defend the Imperial Academy and a certain datapad which is located inside the Main Imperial Recruitment building at the Academy. Orbiting personel must successfully capture the Imperial Academy and recover said datapad.
"Since Endor's planetary shields have been lowered and no planetary turbolasers encountered, we will proceed with the landing as soon as possible." The General moved to the turbolift that lifted to the bridge and waited while the lift proceeded down to the hanger of the massive capital ship.
