Everyone's listed at full HP (except the dude who just got mended but even he is listed as healthy on the start of the phase), so I have nothing to do at the moment.

Saw Wonder Woman. It was better than I expected. Those expectations weren't all that high to begin with, but still.

Every instance I've ever heard of Force-users destroying stars or the like was done using the aid of ancient superweapons, or the efforts of many Force-users, or both.

In any case, none of these things are in play during Vader's time and are thus irrelevant to the game in question.

He's not exactly the weakest, either. In the timeframe when the Jedi are nearly extinct and the Sith rule the galaxy?

...yeah, he kinda is at the top. Better than any PC Force-user could be, anyway. The only canon Force-users that could be considered more powerful than him after the Clone Wars would be Yoda (not a PC) and the Emperor (also not a PC). Obi-wan would be an edge case.
What if Obi-Wan has the high ground, though? He could beat Darth Vader no problem then, the only reason he loses in A New Hope is because they're fighting on a level surface.
He's also much older than Vader. Also keep in mind, Vader was not defeated by the high ground at any other point in the OT. When Luke got above him, he just threw his lightsaber instead of trying anything stupid. He learned his lesson.
Usage of the high ground is a skill available only to Obi-Wan. By having the high ground, his skill increases such that any fight with him (especially with people who were his brother) is over by the time he has the high ground.

Also I was joking
So was I

He also dies in the process and sorta loses any ability to directly defeat Vader at that point, so...

Yeah, okay. I'll have him heal someone instead, I forgot he's got an entire medicine chest on him.

Dun.

So yeah. Colonies will be needed, at least temporarily, if you ever want to improve your tech.
Of course you'll need pretty good tech to even run a workable nomadic fleet, but still.

What about academies to get new leaders? Will they need workers as well?

I think you'll need working colonies to run Research Labs, too. Unless they can function on any random asteroid you drop them on.

I'm thinking of making an Elan Psion. I'll have to look into psionics a bit more (and figure out what vampires would make of a biologically-immortal aberration).

Religion check. What does Gunnvor know about the priests of the Righlanders?
