Choose whichever characters you wish to have bar anyone before the birth of Anakin or force entities. If you choose a force sensitive, know that they are limited to using their powers for only direct combat; they can't assassinate someone with force-choke from a distance for example or use force storms.

Morals are on and characters are aware of who they're around; so pairing Yoda with Palpatine is not a good idea for example. Also using jedi to assassinate other jedi or politicians won't work either unless you can explain why convincingly.

Not all positions must be filled

Let's see who can come up with the best team(s) and give a short explanation why:

You don't need to do all the scenarios but I've provided you with plenty of options.

Scenario A:

You need a group of people to skillfully take-out Supreme Chancellor Palpatine during a Senate Chamber meeting.

positions

Mission Planner/Head Assassin
Assassin 2
Assassin 3
Assassin 4
Technician (optional)
Muscle (as many needed up to 5)



Scenario B

You need a squadron of ships and pilots to take out 3 imperial-class destroyers. Ships must be no larger than the cruiser.

Ship 1 + Pilot(s)
Ship 2 + Pilot(s)
-
-
Ship 5 + Pilot(s)



Scenario C

You're looking to raid the Jedi Temple as Anakin did except that Anakin is one of the jedi being attacked. Yoda & Kenobi are present along with all other jedi during the era.

person 1
person 2
person 3
army of your choosing (max is number of 501st originally present)

A:
Jedi team would be the best, if it can be after they discovered who Palpatine truly is. Assassination isn't really that different from going to the guy who will obviously never surrender or anything and face him in a fair fight. That's at least for many of the Jedi, and in this one they would also have a pretty good reason to do their best.


Mission Planner/Head Assassin: Mace Windu - pretty obvious, the guy has the morals to do it as somebody who's not going to do dumb stuff because of "the Jedi way", like Galen letting Palpatine go, etc. And he's simply one of the toughest guys in the mythos.
Assassin 2: Mara Jade Skywalker - absolutely perfect skillset, no contest.
Assassin 3: Jaina Solo - perfect skillset, experience, and morals for this kind of stuff.
Assassin 4: Tholme - far behind Fisto tier as a combatant, but one of the few Jedi good for the task.
Technician (optional): any legitimate kind of a bounty hunter - advanced combat tech of Fett-type guys is a great addition in a brawl of Force combatants; adds something more to the mix, something more unique and with this thing being an assassination, not a random battle, the Jedi can be perfectly prepared for tech-stuff Jango-type-guys are going to use
Muscle (as many needed up to 5): not really needed imo, but put Cade Skywalker, Kyle Katarn, Kit Fisto, Quinlan Vos and Corran Horn and team slaughters.

more to come

Assassinate Palpatine:

Mission Planner/Head Assassin: Yoda
Assassin 2: Mace Windu
Assassin 3: Anakin
Assassin 4: Obi wan

The Jedi have become aware of who Palpatine really is and decide that he must be taken down at all costs. Best fighters are present to get the job done once Sidious reveals himself.

Take our a Star Destroyer:

Luke in X Wing
Anakin in Jedi starfighter
Han Solo in Millenium Falcon
Plo Kloon in Jedi Fighter
Poe Dameron in X Wing

The best fighters seen in canon so far.

Storm the Jedi Temple:

Sidious
Dooku
Grievous
Dathomir army (includes Talzin, Maul, Ventress, Daka)

The two Dark Side sects put aside their differences and wage an all out attack on the temple, they will resolve their dispute once the Jedi are out of the way. The combination of the Sith and the Dathomirians is too much for the Jedi to handle.

ILS
Scenario A:

Mission Planner/Head Assassin - Maul, nuff said
Assassin 2 - Quinlan Vos
Assassin 3 - Asajj Ventress
Assassin 4 - Ahsoka Tano, everyone so far should work together well enough for a common goal and have no allegiances apart from to themselves
Technician (optional) - Boba Fett, obviously
Muscle (as many needed up to 5) - Savage Opress, IG-88, Pong Krell, Bossk, Durge, should be pretty awesome for crowd control

You don't think Anakin could be a weakness if Sids just tries to expose his relationship and pull a RotS during the fight?

A:


Mission Planner/Head Assassin: Mace Windu
Assassin 2: Mara Jade Skywalker
Assassin 3: Jaina Solo
Assassin 4: Jacen Solo

LOL, nearly the same as Bart's xD

ILS
Scenario C

You're looking to raid the Jedi Temple as Anakin did except that Anakin is one of the jedi being attacked. Yoda & Kenobi are present along with all other jedi during the era.

person 1 - Darth Krayt
person 2 - Darth Vader
person 3 - Darth Sidious
army of your choosing (max is number of 501st originally present) - Darth Krayt's Sith Troopers

LOL, nearly the same as Bart's xD conflict of characters. Boba hates Mace's guts and unless you're referring to jedi Dooku and Krayt, they're going to fight.

can the three "darths" get along without the rule of 2 conflict? Perhaps Vader and Krayt would be trying to replace each other as Sidious's apprentice.

Dunno about Boba and Mace, but you have a point.
To Tyranus: If Dooku knows that Sidious would kill him, I think he would side with the Jedi
Krayt: Similar to Krayt and Luke vs Abeloth, Krayt would see Sidious most likely as bigger threath.

Krayt didn't become the Emperor of the Galactic Empire and found the "One Sith" as it's sole, unchallenged leader to take second place to anyone. That said, I think he's smart enough not to start sparring with Vader and Sidious while they're trying to kill the Jedi.

Even ILS's team has poor chances of taking the entire Jedi Temple, lol. Anakin and 501st succeeded through surprise and the fact that majority of the Order's powerhouses were offworld. The fact that there were 3/12 Councillors left speaks enough.

Ursumeles
Eh, If I understand it correctly it is the same situation as Anakins attack, only that Anakin is present in the Temple.

The fact that there were 3/12 Councillors left speaks enough. Yeah. It's basically Sidious, Vader and Krayt trying to occupy Yoda, Windu, Anakin, Obi-Wan, Koon, Fisto, Shaak, Yaddle etc, while the Sith Troopers deal with the less prominent Jedi. Even with the element of surprise it'd be a total bloodbath on both sides.

This is an entertaining thread. I'll be posting mine soon.
