I'll make the necessary changes to my profile and come up with a complete overview of the remaining Corps troopers and you can see how you like it and make any changes that need to be.
I'm working with 891 troopers, 450 of which are injured. Yes? I want this to be clear as crystal, so is this correct?.

Des Voh 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. Why do I always have to point this out to people when it comes to imperial ground units? You forgot to add support personnel... An Assault Battalion has: 662 Troopers 206 Support Personnel for a Total of 868 men. Two assault battalions is 1,736 men, nearly 30% more men than that starting number.

I was only counting troopers, I grouped support personnel with the rest of your ratios of the ship crew.
I only counted troopers because of the point that an ISD carries 9,700 Infantry. Troopers. Thats not counting support personnel, which would be counted as the enlisted I would assume.

Nevermind, 1.7k could be the start number, 891 troopers are left. Half wounded. Simple.

I can't believe we're fighting over stormtrooper battalion commands, there's isn't going to be any shipboard firefights the way I have this planned so besides trolling the halls your men will have very little to do. The Imps want to destroy the ship not steal her back.
Your real job is going to be to find the Ubiqtorate, ISB, and Compforce spies among the remaining crew and keep them from endangering the ship. Most of the time you'll need little more than a squad as backup for that.

Okay, fine. What do you want the numbers to be then.Would you rather I excerpt the Rancor from my backstory and have it just be mine?
As long as my numbers ended the same I didn't see any problem with it becoming two technically separate battalions which just added a bit of distinction. If that was a mistake, I'm sorry, i told you, I'm not an expert on this stuff. Instead of nagging, why not lend a hand to help me understand and fix it.

Make it a single battalion which has replaced most of the killed personnel with elements from tiny splinter units like half squads and so forth. The largest group of stormtroopers besides your command to side with the ship as a unit will be DA's command. You will remain a Major since the size of your command only warrants such a rank.
Give the Battalion a number and you can keep the double name for the unofficial name for the unit, maybe call the little scraps being folded into the unit the jackals while the battalion as a whole is Rancor Battalion or something.

Are you guys going to stop arguing, or am I going to have to threaten with a mod ruling?

This isnt an argument. Its constructive criticism being bounced back and froth over a legit issue.
If it were, I wouldn't have apologized for making a mistake.
@Stellar: Alright. I'll work on that.

Well I think that's the last in terms of ruffled feathers. Now we can move onto really planning the initial chapters.
Upon our decision to withdraw from Imperial Service the closest Imperial Task Force was Task Force Scutarii. It contains a Tector-class Star Destroyer, an Escort Carrier, and six corellian corvettes. This force is the first group to engage our force, but we should be ready for many more.

I've been siming against Imperial ships of the sort we'll be facing, so I've come up with some techniques to defeat them, but they mostly only work one on one.
