Ok. You might want to up the compression then, that would help.

I can send reinforcements to any of my planets, from any of my planets.

I am, of course, talking about Hapes.

Kas, according to the X-wing book, The Krytos Trap, it takes an X-wing '8 hours give or take' to get from Alderaan to Tatooine. Using that as a guide, Honoghr to Mon Calamari is less then half the length(so I guessed at about 3.5 hours, although I think that is a bit on the high side). And I highly doubt a Victory would make .5 past lightspeed, seeing as the Falcon only makes .5 past lightspeed, and VSDs are described as really slow.

Admittedly, I believe the official NJO map to be complete crap. Unfortunately, it's the best 'official' map available.

According to that time frame, one could cross the galaxy from end to end in sixteen hours, which goes against a heck of a lot of source material.

Its often stated that X-Wing books are not very cannon, and have inaccuracies.

I mean, its the series that stated 80 concussion missles could take down an SSD.

However, this is just what I have picked up from perusing several sites.

Even then, it wasn't just 80 proton torpedoes, but it was more like 240 proton torpedoes, 2 Imperial Star Destroyers Mark II, 1 Alderranian War Cruiser, 36 A-wings, and about 100 other various starfighters.

And even then the Lus. wasn't destroyed, but heavily damaged. If it had had it's starfighter wing, or even part of it with it, the Lus. would have won the battle.

Yeah, the 80 torpedoes only took down the shields. They mentioned in the book that 300 proton torps would only take down the shields and do some damage, but not destroy the ship.
