Phoenix has probably added him, he just hasn't told us, go under my community suggestions post, the title was Grand Admirals I think...It shows there he has many more heroes than he has said.I just realized a hero pheonix rising forgot to add......... Corran Horn, one of the most bad ass jedi in the galaxy. Are you adding him, or is that a no?

Haha, that's a really cool picture just to prove your point and canonically, that is how it should go. But there are a few problems for gameplay reasons. For one, going from the Admonitor to the Grey Wolf doesn't really get you anything tangible in return, just a new name. The second issue is that each unique ship can appear only once, so if possible, I have to choose other heroes to command those vessels in cases like Thrawn, where he has three Imperial-class Star Destroyers to pick from. So I've given Thrawn the Admonitor and I'm saving the Chimaera for Pellaeon.
I think the point about the Guardian is interesting though, but I'm not sure I would give him that ship specifically, since it was badly damaged and possibly captured before Thrawn's return from the Unknown Regions. Also it was in warlord hands while Thrawn remained loyal to the Empire.
So we know that most of the dreadnoughts left in the Empire seem to have been recalled to Byss for Operation Shadow Hand, which leaves Thrawn to command from an Imperial II. What's always bothered me though, is that Kuat fell just six months before Thrawn started his campaign - inevitably while he was messing around on Tatooine. Certainly there would have been some dreadnoughts left behind from Shadow Hand to protect Kuat, one of which Thrawn could have acquired for a command ship.
In fact, had Zsinj not attacked it, the Razor's Kiss would have been rolling off the lines right around the time Thrawn would have needed it... and since it was new, Kuat wouldn't have lost anything from its defense fleet. Staffing would have been no problem; Thrawn had clones for that. 178 Dreadnaughts sans slave-rigging would have required a crew total of 2,885,380... which just happens to be in-line with the approximated crew count for a 19-kilometer Executor-class at 3,300,000. And since the Kiss was never actually commissioned, it really isn't associated with anyone else and never will be. So I think it's a pretty safe bet to assume that Thrawn could have acquired it and put it into service; I mean, it just makes too much sense. I'll give that to him as his final upgrade.
How do you know all this??? Can I please know your sources?
Thanks!
