Here how our first campaign mission went:

Loads of fun. Learned lots. Went down to the last turn.
Campaign Mission 1 "Aftermath" video batrep
Love the painted figures.
However, for future missions, I'd advise using tokens to represent Imperial deployment points.
Those are supposed to be unknown to the Rebel player!
Liked the report. I ran the same mission and it also came down to the last roll in round 6. We also made some mistakes. I opted for the door but Wookie beat it down in no time.
Regarding your redeployment: I believe you're only allowed to redeploy squads with a "unit price" ie the smaller number next to the Stormtroopers headline. So no probe droids :-(

The smaller number is the reinforcement cost to use to add a unit to an already deployed squad. The probe droids only come in as a one of per card and therefore do not need the second number as that is already their per miniature cost.
Thanks for the video report! Nicely done. I learned something for our first game tomorrow. This game looks to be spectacular.

Actually, on page 11 of the "Rules Reference Guide" under "Deployment" in the fourth bullet paragraph,it says,
"When an initial or reserved group is defeated, except for unique figures, the Deployment card is returned to the Imperial player's hand and can be optionally deployed during the Status Phase".
So, between the Initial Group and the Reserved Group, I should have had two Stormtrooper squads (six troopers!) and two Imperial Officers in the end protecting those terminals! I made a lot of mistakes in this game. I will be much better prepared for the next one!
