We would have defeated the General and then promptly been taken down by his minions. Now it is just the General and one of the Giant Droids, whom we can escape once this is over.
Basically, yes. Before it was a stupid idea because there was still too much firepower from other droids. That's no longer the case.

I don't think it makes a difference. But as far as I can tell the idea didn't get better really.
Basically, if we didn't clean house, we would have been killed before we even finished off the General because we were letting the amount of firepower remain the same. Sure, we're down to four fighters and we have ten attacks incoming... but that's better than four fighters and twenty or thirty attacks incoming.
The general rule is 'mooks die first,' and it is what we forgot and why this didn't go so well.
But there's still the Giant Droid that can kill you people. I got the point when you made it, which is why I agreed then. But to me, there hasn't that much changed. We might have slightly tipped the balance. But still, though there are less droids, there's also less people and especially much less damage it has to inflict. I think, for the same reason that it made sense back then to attack the Droids, it would still be the better course. But I don't think it will matter now, though it might have mattered back then.
But enough of this, go kick his ass already 😠
Points that have changed about the general are several
1. He has actually now had significant damage inflicted on him anyway
2. The biggest problem before was the time wasted needed to get to him, past his bodyguards. That is no longer the case as they no longer exist
3. The rocket launchers were only hitting anyone when you were clearing the EHBDs. Now they will not, and so therefore actually The General has more firepower.

Ah okay...well, then attack the General leftright
Big rush on The General! Oh, he is certainly not looking well now, as your various sabres slash and plunge into him.
His Disruptor is powering up!
Everyone get shit once by The general's guns, with single successes for three damage... which is enough to drop Rand...
ROBOT WARS- START OF TURN 12
Middle Third
Western Third
Galder: (LS 10/1)- 3/3/69 (Forward Guard/Cleave/Block)
Relle (LS 8/3): 3/3/49 (Forward Guard/Eagle Eye/Block)
Azarl (LS 8/0): 3/3/53 (Orthodox Guard/Block)
Giant Battle Droid F: (G 8) 0/3 (1P)/8
The General: (G 10) 0/3 (1P)/76
Galder and Relle are both within one point of going down and I don't feel like we will survive much longer. We have to get that General down!
Galder is going to use his last Force point on a Strike and also tap Block, striking at the General with his hardest blows and yelling like a mad man, hoping to break the giant droid before its disruptor goes off.
