Quote
“The Empire improves every system it touches. Judge by any metric. Safety, prosperity, trade, opportunity, peace. Compare Imperial rule to what is happening now. Look outside. Is the world more peaceful since the revolution? I see nothing but death and chaos.”
“The Client,”
The Imperial Consortium (TIC) was a coalition formed of opportunistic Imperial warlords that toppled the former leadership of the Imperial Triumvirate. Consolidated under seven high ranking imperial warlords, this new Imperial Remnant had taken refuge in the deep core, and the unknown regions, in order to regroup and rebuild.
History
The Imperial Triumvirate was just the beginning. The first victory of many. From the embers of the Imperial Triumvirate, a new order rises; The Imperial Consortium.
The Formation of the Triumvirate (5 ABY): The Imperial Triumvirate was formed shortly after the battle of Endor. Moff Barthol had just returned with the 31st fleet, also known as the Ethereal Fleet, from a decade-long mission in the unknown regions. Witnessing a crumbling empire, Moff Barthol decided to go against Vice Admiral Sloane’s command and seek out old allies, still loyal to the emperor. Shortly after, the 31st fleet joined forces with the armies of the Crim Dominion, an old imperial loyalist state ruled by the mysterious Crimson Duchess. The Triumvirate was not fully formed until shortly after Operation Cinder. Moff Barthol wanted an old trusted friend, a viceroy of Nacronis to join his cause. In the meantime the viceroy had tried to foil the destruction of his homeworld and crippling Operation Cinder, resulting in his death by the hands of his own son, Prince Serion. Seeing this as a true act of loyalty to the empire, Moff Barthol decided to give Prince Serion his father’s place, as the third and last leading member of the Imperial Triumvirate.
Restoring the Empire (6-9 ABY): The Imperial Triumvirate grew rapidly with more Imperial Remnants joining the united front, winning important battles at Fondor, and Devaron, but also gaining influence on core New Republic worlds like Hosnian Prime, and Kuat. Only the secrecy kept the Imperial Triumvirates territory from being publicly acknowledged.
The Invasion of Iridonia ‘The Manifest’ (9 ABY): It was unknown who sanctioned the Invasion of Iridonia, but one thing was certain. The Imperial Triumvirate was no longer a secret. The republic-friendly Pentastar remnant, stationed on Iridonia, quickly realised their inevitable loss, and evacuated what troops and ordnance they could. The remaining troops, and New Republic defence forces were no match for the united imperial front. Within a week, Imperial Triumvirate banners soared above Iridonia. For days, the New Republic was incapacitated, with no response. The glory of the former Empire had been restored!
Alas, no one could foresee that the imperial union would shatter from within. Rumor has it that it was the Triumvir, Supreme Moff Barthol himself, that provided the enemy with plans enabling the New Republic to launch tactical assaults that crippled the Imperial Triumvirate.
Salvaging what was left, the remnants of the shattered empire, took refuge in the far reaches of the galaxy once more. This time however, not defeated. Something had changed. Imperial embers smoldered across the galaxy. Imperial facilities, and installations lay dormant, and abandoned, scattered across the galaxy, like a thousand scars. Scars that could once again become bleeding wounds.The reformation of the Imperial Consortium (10 ABY): The rise of the Imperial Triumvirate would have toppled the New Republic, had it not been for traitors within the high command. In order to save the remaining Imperial forces, a league of Moffs and Warlords mutinied against Imperial Triumvirate High Command, and the three Triumvirs. The reformed Imperial Consortium took refuge in the Deep Core Security Zone, and various Imperial worlds in the Unknown Regions. From these secure strongholds, the Imperial Consortium would once more plot to reclaim their former glory.
Organization
THE RULING COUNCIL
The leadership of the Imperial Consortium consisted of a league of high-ranking imperial officers, warlords, and moffs. This league was formalized in the form of a ruling Council, aligning and overseeing matters across the individual imperial remnants, fleets, and assets. Although consolidated under a united leadership, each warlord still maintained a large degree of autonomy of their remnant.
SPECIAL FORCES
Although subjugated to the Galactic Concordance, the Imperial Consortium continues to carry out sinister schemes and plots to restore the former glory of the Empire. Most of these activities are covert and highly secret, calling for highly trained commando soldiers, and other special forces. You could find yourself among this elite, carrying out pivotal missions coming from the very top of the Imperial Consortium.
TROOPERS
Training of new stormtroopers has been banned, but training of security personnel and repurposing old stormtrooper gear works just as well. The army, navy, and security troopers are still the backbone of the Imperial Consortium.
ANCILLARY PERSONNEL
In order to make the wheels keep turning, ancillary personnel are vital. This includes cargo pilots, scientists, manufacturers, operations officers, clerks, and the list keeps on going. Although this group does not make it to the recruitment posters, these professionals are vital to the various operations.

WHAT SHOULD MY BUILDS LOOK LIKE?
As a faction rising from the remnants of the Galactic Empire and building on the same values, you should aim for a style that resembles imperial architecture, starships, crafts and equipment – like imperial garrison bases, imperial star destroyers or even AT-ATs and AT-STs. These could be heavily modified and improved since they might be salvaged or repurposed. Your special forces squad or stormtrooper squad could also be carrying out missions to various planets, giving you an opportunity to build a wide variety of Star Wars landscapes.
WHERE CAN I BUILD?
The Imperial Consortium is constantly expanding its territory. You are allowed to build anywhere in the Star Wars galaxy, but only by building in accessible systems can you earn Influence Points (IP = System Control) for your faction. In order to further the faction’s territory, all members of the Imperial Consortium is encouraged to earn IPs for the faction.
Members of the Imperial Consortium can build in any system, where the faction has control or a presence. Members can also build on any system along hyperlanes.
Structure of The Consortium
Structure of the Consortium
The Imperial Consortium is built up from a chain of different ranks, from moffs to ensigns, all playing their vital role to keep the faction running smoothly. It is important that each of these roles are played to perfection to ensure that we thrive as a group. As part of the TIC, you will have the opportunity to explore these different ranks, which can allow for you and your character to unlock things, such as secret missions and strategical discussions with your superiors, or even become a superior if the work is put in.
“Unless you take risks, do what must be done, there will always be limits to your abilities.”
“Darth Maul”
The Consortium needs strong members and even stronger leaders to function in a successful way. Through frequent submissions of builds and general help within the faction, you will be providing yourself with the means to advance quicker than your peers to the higher end of the ranks. However, these are not just insignia plaques to add to your uniforms, these ranks will unlock you special opportunities that those lower down the order will not have access to. These include special missions and operations that your faction leader will provide those with a certain rank with and no one else below you. Another important feature you will unlock as you advance is more detailed strategical discussions with your FL and moffs, this means you will have more of an insight to the operations that we are planning on launching and will get to help with deciding them.
The Ranks
The Consortium has many members who strive for the greatness of the faction and those who do need to be rewarded. The image below shows the ranking system within the consortium for the amount of builds you put in. Those with higher ranks with have access to secret mission and collaborations within the Consortium that lower ranks would not. The more good quality builds you make, the faster you climb the ranks.
Moff and The Ruling Council
The Imperial Consortium offers many different roles, but only few make it to the high chains of command. The Ruling Council is the supreme leadership, run by the TIC moffs. Only players who have shown exceptional commitment to the faction, will be considered for one of these seven seats. Below are a few pointers as to ways that would improve your chances at being considered for this promotion.
