This is the first in a long series of narrative X-Wing battle reports featuring Green Squadron! Check it out!

In a remote sector of the Outer Rim, a small force of Rebel FREEDOM FIGHTERS is tasked with keeping the Rebellion alive after a series of crippling Imperial strikes. Striking from their sole capital ship EMERALD ONE, Green Squadron must stand toe to toe with the empire with fresh, untested pilots and limited supplies.

The Empire possesses a planetary garrison on Nulan VI, and the Star Destroyer RETRIBUTION relentlessly patrols the system. Every operation GREEN SQUADRON conducts requires a swift, coordinated strike before fading into the darkness of space. With the possibility of the RETRIBUTION dropping from hyperspace at any moment, GREEN SQUADRON must remain ever vigilant.

That should read "Tales". Stupid sausage fingers.

Thanks! We're mega excited. There are something like 20 battle reports in the pipeline.

They look great. And why wouldn't the pilots of a given squadron personalize their craft. That was certainly the case in WWI and to an extent WWII.

Very nicely done, and yes, I too would expect pilots given half a chance to personalize their craft, especially a rebel force and this *is* sci-fi after all!evil grin

Spoiler alert: I've added more to the Squadron!

This is a B-Wing that I hacked up so the body and cockpit can rotate independent of each other.

Nice. I like the blacked out flight stands, too. They make the models pop a bit more.

I really really love your fluff (totally snatching "Ten Thumbs" for my own campaign) and especially your pilot portraits? Are they any hard to make? Is a tutorial something you'd consider?

Our friend with some very good photoshop skills did those! I have no idea how tough or not it is, but it certainly seems to require some skills!
