My thought on the whole stardestroyer placement issue is that all the stardestroyers have all just returned from deploying the probe droids around the various systems and are now regrouping with the Executor, so they would be facing all directions and not uniform in placement

Just what I've always thought. The SSD is like a homebase and the rest are just coming and going, meaning they'd be facing in different directions. :)

Oh, and Ady, I would love to contribute towards the monitor and whatever else. My job future is a little fuzzy at the moment, but I'll try when things are clearer! I certainly would have done so towards the HDD a while back had I known at the time.

And DarthBo, thanks for the space slug. I was away all day and didn't get to respond. :)
