Star Wars An Officer and a Traitor (NO SV, you are an Imperial Officer and Traitor)

"This latest news offers an opportunity"
"You said that about the Clone Wars, which we only survived the end of because we were too unimportant to nationalize."
"Task Force Shield offers an opportunity, we just need to grasp it with both hands."
"What opportunity, the Empire deemed fit to give them 35 ISDs! That doesn't sound like they need much."
"There is a reason the Hammerhead is starting to gain interest, and that combined with the Doctrine wars means that those 35 ISDs are EXACTLY why they need virtually everything. ISDs need an extensive logistics chain to operate, and if the Navy denies the maverik task force that, then it wil be a problem."
"The ISDs happen to have TIE racks that incentivize using TIEs above anything else. So our Vikings are unlikely to be something they are interested in."
"On the contrary, having some is better than none, so office politics could not give them the ability to field any TIE for a while. Plus, there are 3 venators, and we have other designs such as our Siege Tank."
"Speaking of, how is the Valkyrie upgrade doing?"
"Well, the afterburners have greatly improved effectiveness for ground operations, but they simply don't work without atmosphere. But with proper supply they have proven somewhat effective in space as well, even though it's lack of speed causes problems that the Viking doesn't have. We may need to go for a redesign, with how combat is evolving."
"How are the plans to try and mimic some of the properties of the cloak jammer on smaller craft?"
"The difficult part was to hide it from optical sight and thermal readings. Since Sensor Jammers existed to solve part of the puzzle. We have figured out something that could work, but the setup is very draining, and it only mostly masks most methods of detection, which means a proper setup of multiple different sensors, or a keen eye looking at the right place and the right time will detect it. Very flawed, but it does mostly work."
"Still a major deal, especially with the special materials needed for the cloaking devices."
"The madlads working on their side project of 'force-suits' expressed some interest in it, even though I am pretty sure the power requirements is way out of personal armor scale. No clue what they could do with it."
"Speaking of, how goes that armor project?"
"If you ignore the bulk, surprisingly well. When you simply not bother with the sleekness, and make it a powered armor to resolve the weight issue. The end result is a surprisingly reliliant and somewhat economical armor. Albeit one much less simple to put on or take off. Perfect for heavy infantry, especially with the ability to use weapons too heavy for non-augmented humans."
"Simply put. We got designs, we have experience, and now we got the biggest task force in the Outer Rim desperate to fill out their forces while keeping the lights on, something which may be the biggest opportunity in our history. Who will join me to support them?"
A/N: well. I had introduced StarCraft designs as economical rugged outer rim designs. So, decided to try an omake of basically a coalition of minor companies that makes outer rim designs. Doing more with less high-tech.
And well, StarCraft cloak is kinda bootleg cloak compared to the Star Wars version. As StarCraft version can be defeated by observing the flaw in optical cloak in movement, or through a suite of sensors that use the tiny flaws across multiple spectrums to beat it.

The Naboo Insurrection

Naboo has for a long time been a very peaceful planet. With the biggest force being the royal guard that mostly served ceremonial purposes. But, in spite of the reputation of the planet, and Naboo being founded by war refugees, they have indeed not forsaken war altogether. For the colonists had clashed with themselves and the local Gungans for thousands of years. Something which has not been forgotten outside the great cities. While the trade federation didn't notice much till The queen of Naboo moved with the royal guard to capture the occupation leader, Naboo seems to have decided to show the Empire, that they aren't pushovers. For in retaliation of attempts to confiscate weapons and armors from the populace was met with blaster and slug-fire from the locals.

At first the people of Naboo were supportive, but the abolishment of the position of Govorner and the power given to the Moff. But it was somewhat mollified by Captain Panaka of the royal guard being picked as Moff. While tensions existed such as the royal guard being disarmed, things seemed to have went decently. Up till XXXX, where Queen Apailana died during a 501st operation to allegedly deal with Jedi in hiding. But after it was reported she died to a jedi, whispers started circulating suggesting that there were no jedi, with some even suggesting that Padme was murdered by the Empire, especially after the last position to hold power to contest the moff was stripped down to a purely ceremonial one after the incident. Which is a sentiment seemingly shared by the Gungans, as they started attacking the Imperial garrison that had been replaced with stormtroopers.

Then the Doctrine wars started, and Captain Panaka wound up in the Constantinist camp, with many theories of exactly why he was in said camp. Which, proved to be what would end Panaka's term as Moff. Not old age, not assassination, but office politics as when the Great Reassignment happened, as the 'disarmed Royal guard' was revealed to be decidedly not disarmed. As a result, he was demoted and replaced. Then, things really started getting worse. As the royal guard seemingly vanished without a trace, and very shortly, even full squads of stormtroopers weren't safe outside cities as the locals ruthlessly exploit the protection offered by one of the wettest planets in the galaxy. While many techniques were tried to push back the native plants, including burning out the plants. The Nabooins had been trying since they first settled, and they were just as unsuccessful as the Empire was. And even in the cities, the Empire finds few allies, and even some hostility after losing one beloved queen, and a well liked one, to alleged jedi. Something which was made painfully clear when only a month later, the replacement Moff was killed in an assassination, with the perpetrators still being at large.


Edit: Well, here is my attempt to mash the two, and....
Yeah, meshing the two sets everything on fire, especially as Panaka seems to very much likely be a TarkanistConstantinist. Bye bye stability of the Chommell sector if this becomes canon...

Though wonder what ripples relative to princess Leia this might have, considering Panaka in canon very quickly realized her relations when he first met.
Edit: Replaced 18 BBY with placeholder XXs, since unless this was written after the battle of yavin, the number would make no sense.
