Polis Massa- Birth of the Rebellion

By the time of the Raid on Polis Massa, the men of the 501st started to get a little sick of this so-called "rebellion". In the past, we'd secretly enjoyed putting down a local insurrection or two; they kept the troops sharp and the Empire feared. But these rebels were different: they were organised, they were growing and they were everywhere. The raid on Polis Massa was a perfect example of how things were starting to fall apart. We were supposed to go in, wipe out a small band of rebels and recover some stolen Imperial plans on an encrypted holodisk. Before we knew it, we were nearly overrun with Rebel forces, with the holodisk nowhere to be found.

Though the Polis Massa raid was only a partial success, we finally had a lead on the whereabouts of the Death Star plans, which suited the 501st just fine.

My illustration of the fifth Imperial ground mission (sixth in the Imperial portion, fourteenth overall), as approved by MarcusStarkiller. Again, Emperor Palpatine- the Imperial 'hero' for Polis Massa in Conquest mode- is absent, so I'm depicting our narrator against the Rebel forces.

Hope I did the urban outfits justice here. I don't recall seeing them outside the games.
