CC-Can Imperials builds Outposts?

By Kanawolf, in Star Wars: Armada Rules Questions

From the rules it looks like only Rebels can build outposts (0pts) or bases (15pts).

Outposts are a rebel-only thing. When you build one, you put a Rebel Presence sticker on the spot so the Empire doesn't know for sure that it's an outpost or a base. The Empire only finds out if they declare the location the target of an assault. Whether it's a base or outpost changes which objectives can be chosen.

Also keep in mind the imperials can build FLEETS x 2 bases, but the rebels can only build FLEETS + 1 bases, but FLEETS x 2 outposts.

So with 3 player teams and full bases/outposts, the imps will get 150 resource pts, and the rebs would only get 130.

Doesn't the Empire get Fleets x2 bases +1 (Corellia)?
