Admonitor as the Empire of the Hand flagship (Voss Parck)
« on: January 03, 2016, 08:40:57 AM »
I know you previously stated that Stent in the Battlehammer would be the Flahship for the EotH.
Now I recently read Visions of the Future again and hot the clear impression that Voss Parck is most clearly the one in charge.
As does the Star Wars wiki say and even in Imperial Civil War Parck is the leader that also adresses you each Era.
So i think Voss Parck would make more sense as the EotH Flagship person as it also would keep up the Trawn's Revenge tradition.
Also it would nicely illustrate the Imperial origin, tradition an lose allegiance of thr EotH.
(Parck and Thrawn both wore their Imperial uniforms during their service for the EotH and the best (chiss) Soldiers wore imperial badges)

In ICW the Gray Wolf, the Strikefast and the Admomitor appear, but I believe this is to have each hero have his own unit.
Canonically it seems the Admonitor is the only ship that was in Thrawn's expedition, heck it is the only ship of the EotH to be named at all.

(Also to me it would just be very cool to have that one ISD in an EotH fleet over Nirauan..)

Because of this I petition to have the Admoitor representing Voss Parck as the Empire of the Hand flagship in Thrawn's Revenge Ii: Ascendancy.

I would love to hear the communities the developers and Corey's take on this.

It's true that Parck was the de facto leader of the Empire of the Hand during Thrawn's absence, however the flagship and it's commander is not necessarily the leader of the faction, just a high-up military commander; Kaine and the Reaper, for example, will likely not be the flagship for the Alignment (mostly because we don't want people to have a free Executor), and Ackbar with Home One serve as the flagship, as opposed to Mon Mothma for the New Republic. The choice for the Empire of the Hand is between Parck in the Adminitor, Stent in Thrawn's Hand, and Siath in the Battlehammer. The main reason not to do Parck is because if we did him and the Admonitor, that means three of the four factions have their flagship as an ISD, and we'd prefer some variety.

Plus though Parck was in charge, I think he mainly stayed at the Hand of Thrawn base on Niraun. As Corey points out the main leader usuallyiisn't also on the front all the time.

Yeah, it's a little unclear who was responsible for what re: Parck, Fel and Stent. It seemed more like after the initial expansion, Stent would have been more responsible for fighting off all the little Unknown Regions forces that threatened the Chiss. All of them would be eligible as heroes (except probably Fel), but for flagships we'd rather be more distinct. Especially when you have factions like the NR which have the iconic Home One, or potentially the Hapans with the super unique Star Home, or even Song of War.

I like that Stent becomes the flagship hero for the Empire of the Hand.  :)
