Scouting Mission of Occupied Theed (history - links - logs - delete - protect)

Continuing the trend; here's an article for a "scouting mission" undertaken by four people. They encounter four battle droids. How on earth is this notable? Why isn't it covered by two or three sentences in the Invasion of Naboo article, where it belongs.

  11. Meh. What's funny about this is that four of the users currently voting to kill this were actively participating in the IRC Chat when I discussed this particular event, and at least one of those present straight up told me to make this article. I remember that detail, but I can't recall why I dubbed it a Scouting Mission. I guess the fact that it resulted in loot (List of prisoners and their location) was what made it notable at the time. But that was at a time when the Wook zeitgeist was expansionist and inclusionist in nature. General consensus was that adding a small, random article, "couldn't hurt anything."

  13. I was going to vote keep because I think it should be included, but kind of hard when even the article creator votes to remove it. ;) Corellian PremierJedi symbolThe Force will be with you always 12:27, May 5, 2014 (UTC)
    • I was also going to vote keep, but when I looked at the source again and couldn't even recall why I dubbed it a full mission, I figured I should axe it for that reason alone. It seems more like, "Random Encounter in a Dead End Alley of Theed" in the rulebook. The only notable thing about it is that it isn't one of the included adventures, and it results in intel.
