Glad you liked it!

Call me silly, but after the first episode I had forgotten that this story directly ties into X-wing. Episode 2 was AMAZING! I loved the chatter in the beginning, and I loved the

Well done! Will definitely be giving this one multiple listens.

plan to draw the Raider away so the X-wings could initiate their torpedo run on the TIE carrier. And the surprise ending - I thought Bowlin was a gonner!

Well done! Will definitely be giving this one multiple listens.

Great! Good to know we were getting the big picture across without spelling it out too much!

Thanks! That's high praise! Personally, I think my acting is the low point of the whole thing, but I think everyone else did a fantastic job.

I hope it makes the overall campaign more enticing, as well. After GenCon, we will try to run a global campaign for everyone and anyone that wants to try it and having the backstory just might make it that much cooler. I hope it reflects the work that we are putting into the whole event and to really try to make it fun and balanced.

I also hope it's just entertaining to listen to!

We've gotta crank out the next two episodes soon to be ready for gencon!

Listened to it this afternoon, another entertaining installment! Music/Sound effects were on point.

Good job guys. Very well done Episode. I enjoyed it as much if not more than the 1st episode. I liked the inclusion of the Imperial Epic ships. And Bowlin is a true leader thinking of his squad over himself. Good character development and a compelling story. Can't wait for the next episode.

{Poor R4 I hope he made it somehow}

Thanks! The sound effects are almost entirely Jake. I got the music from a free music site; the hard part of that was finding music that works for a star wars setting. The composer who wrote the music for this episode has a lot of great stuff. The music for this episode was very easy to work with - it really lends itself to this type of story. I'll probably dip into his work again during the next two episodes.
