Hmm... I might be randomly sending some lesser soldiers to 'aquire' new supplies of 'antiseptic' from the bar...

Of course you do... at the start you're going to be having patients coming out the ears. Expect 30% of the surviving crew to be wounded to various degrees. Plus the 450 wounded stormtroopers from Des's Battalion.

We have a depleted stormtrooper battalion, down to 900 members with 1/2 of them in the medical bay.
And yes EK is right Des, you are not in command of a composite of 2 Battalions its 1, and it has a number not a name, at least not an official one. I should have read the profile closer.

Gah, this is getting ridiculous. I liked the idea of a stripped down, battle dmaaged ISD on the run. Seems like every few hours or so, some change is made to give us better odds.
And you know what I say? Never tell me the odds. I want a challenge.

Blaster wounds, flechette wounds, shrapnel wounds, vibro-wounds, concussions, pressure wounds, burns, chemical burns, electrocution, and various sorts of traumas.

Its actually two battalions, but each are at 2/3rds strength with most of Rancor Battalion wounded and a small percentage of Jackal in less critical medical needs.

Des Voh Its actually two battalions, but each are at 2/3rds strength with most of Rancor Battalion wounded and a small percentage of Jackal in less critical medical needs. *Smack* What part of you have one depleted battalion do you not understand Des? You have one depleted battalion, there is no way in hell two battalions of stormtroopers sided with the ship, one could but two? The odds are astronomical against that. 1 Battalion and a couple less loyal elements of the other 9 Battalions in the division, nothing more.

The original number I gave was 1350, you said that was fine, then you wanted casualties, so I did that, and then, you cleared my profile without any complaints.
Check your own mistakes before pointing the fingers. Because you obviously have either serious short term memory problems or you haven't paid any real attention to a single thing I've said or even read my profile before clearing it.
650 is a single Battalion. If there are 900 on the ship, thats two battalions, one or both depleted and I gave the exact reasons as to why that many sided. And they are a very specific group. If there are other unloyalist, then they can be added or considered apart of it.
Edit: Jackal and Rancor are names given to the battalions by its members, its not an official one, but that is what everyone knows them by. And at this point, the numeric code it had as a name doesn't even matter anymore.

I'm sticking with the profile I posted on page 18, so if it's acceptable, take it as is.

1350 as a start number... one battalion is ~850 troopers (Check out the Imperial Sourcebook to check it out, Imperial Battalions are larger than you think Des) the rest are people in other battalions that decided to stay with the ship and fought against the rest of their battalion, they'd be isolated people, perhaps a half squad here, a lone soldier there, not an entire battalion besides yours because I'd expect loyalty to a battalion = loyalty to the officer in charge which is much more likely to be on the side of the imps then the ship.
Then you add casualties, about 1/3rd killed, 1/3rd wounded. so 891 are alive, that's just enough to replace the losses in the battalion with replacements, with half that number in the medical wing at start you're at a 50% depleted battalion, you'll be back up to one full-strength battalion after a couple weeks to a month. You're not getting any bigger, period!
I was thinking of a single battalion this whole time with a couple less loyal people from other units. It seems every time I turn around you're giving yourself more guys to command, and its irritating me.

Jackal was created with thoughts to an Assault Battalion, not a Line. Which end up counting 662 soldiers(Wookie information, copied from the Imp Sourcebook) . Rancor was created in the same style, thus my number I gave you of 1350, they included a handful of half squads that joined and defected.
EDIT: If you havent noticed though, even a Line Battlalion only have 610 troopers, and I'm only looking at troopers, not heavy weapons.
Then, you wanted them both depleted, and I did so, I don't care. Perhaps I should have given you this information in full bloody detail, and I would have if I had known you would be so damn nit picky with your math. I aplogize i did not completely clear that up.
No, I'm not trying to gain more troops, I'm not seeing how I am because I haven't warped the numbers at all, at this point, I don't see a reason to have more than this amount of troops aboard, it just enough to do whats needed. I've only given names and reasons behind why these numbers exist beyond the simple fact you need them to exist. Its all in my profile. Execpt the numbers, if you like, I'll add therse details to the final copy of my profile to clear it up.
The Rancor and Jackal Battalions both lead by like-minded men sided with the ship and helped fight back the Imperial Loyalist, Rancor taking heavy loses, including its CO, in which too keep them from losing morale, my character took over Rancor during the mutiny and after it, and my temporary promotion to Lt Colonel, I command both, and each hold the job of securing this ship, Little under 900 men/aliens, half of that number wounded in various ways.
I completely understand what your stating, Stellar. I'm sorry, if I would have given you full specs on all this before we wouldn't be having this problem, but I didn't, because I didn't think it would be get to be such a picky issue.
