I would say that in terms of fighting spirit and force of personality (vital for a commander) sshe beats Daala hands down. As for actual tactical and strategic command, she is also Daala's clear superior. Ivanova has faced horrible odds and come out on top- Daala just flops.
Additionally, Ivanova is probably far better in bed than Daala, ensuring that she will be able to coax even more prestige and powwer out of Tarkin.

You know, if someone wrote a fanfic about that there would actually be an entertaining story with Daala in it.Thirdfain wrote:So the real question, gentlemen is: In a hot, lesbian love-fest, would it be Daala or Ivanova who "takes command?"

I think that before the first Death Star would have been completed, Tarkin would have found himself breathing vacuum after one of his meeting with Ivanova... Then she would take his place when the DS is operational, track the Rebels to Yavin, fight Luke in a X-Wing vs. Tie duel, kill that little mongrel and finally blow up the planet.Trust Ivanova,
Trust yourself,
Everybody else:
Shoot'em!
Cue in the Emperor's Palace, Grand Moff Ivanova receives a medal by Palpatine and the Imperial March is playing in the background.
End of the story.

How is it that we always, always, break these things down into some sort of lesbian fest? I mean, while I love hot, lesbian sex as much as the next guy, don't you think we've over done it a bit?Thirdfain wrote:So the real question, gentlemen is: In a hot, lesbian love-fest, would it be Daala or Ivanova who "takes command?"
*thinks a moment*
Considering the nature of this board, I don't know why I even ask.
In regards to the comments of hot, lesbian, sex than all I can say is: carry on.

And then she'd be in the cell block 1128 awaiting termination right? Killing regional govenors isn't a good idea for gaining power in the empire.Enricko wrote:Tarkin would have found himself breathing vacuum after one of his meeting with Ivanova

Since unlike Daala Ivonava is not stupid enough to go terrorist when she realizes how horribly she will get her ass kicked if she attempts any full on confrontations, I say she surrenders and gets enough benefits for the Maw information and handing over 4 functional star destroyers to buy her own planet and retire in style.Enforcer Talen wrote:I used to have that as a wav file.Alyrium Denryle wrote:Ivonova is always right

I realy like this one:
I am Susan Ivonova, Commander. Daughter of Andre and Sophie Ivanov.
I am the right hand of vengence, and the boot that's going to kick your sorry ass all the way back to Earth, sweetheart!
I am death incarnate, and the last living thing that you are ever going to see.
God sent me.

that quote seemed to be trying to hard for my taste. I much preferred delenn facing down the human cruisers -
only one human captain has survived confrontation with minbiri warcruisers. he is behind me. you are in front of me.

Re: ivanova in sw
That depends in good part on the following: Does her latent telepath status qualify her as force sensitive?Enforcer Talen wrote:grand moff tarkin, instead of allowing daala as admiral, promotes a new captain named ivannova. after some simmering in the maw, she is released into the galaxy.
what happens?
If so, then Tarkin may have just promoted one of the Hands of the Emperor to admiral. It would eventually give the Emperor an excuse to promote her to one of those spiffy white uniforms.
Given the character's obvious talent for and apparent liking for fighter combat, any fleets commanded by her will likely have the ship hangars well-stocked with the best Imperial fighters and bombers she can acquire.
Ivanova's fleet tactics are not necessarily hugely inspired, but undoubtedly effective. Better a solid, competent commander willing to use conventional tactics effectively than an erratic commander relying utterly on an endless string of intricate plots, bizarre superweapons, brainwashed triple agents, etc. all to avoid having to display actual competence.
Also, Ivanova has a potential role as the popular face of the Empire or, possibly at a later time, the popular face of the Rebellion. "Now! On Imperial HoloNetNew! Commander's Corner with Grand Admiral Susan Ivanova, Voice of the Empire!"

She woudln't last long to be honest, the Imperial navy is too well disciplined for her, she would start saying her feelings and concerns (which would probably be warranted) and she would be either rubber manded, or if she said the wrong thing near vader, killed
