Foreword
This little story came about when I recently rewatched the Star Wars Rebels episode "Wings of the Master" for the second time. It just really made me upset to see the B-Wing, in some form or another, in action this early in the timeline. Not to mention that damn crazy Multi-Laser trick just wasn't really needed. What happened to the use of torpedoes or bombs? What about the X-Wing for we know the Rebels got it sometime before the Battle of Yavin after all? It just did not make any sense to me, a longtime Star Wars fan, at all in the scheme of things. It is stuff like this that really puts me off on watching Rebels, or any of the new canon stuff for that matter, for it sounds like an awesome idea and then we get these little things that just kind upset me.
Anyways this story basically rewrites the "Wings of the Master" episode to make some more sense to me along with a few other ideas thrown into the story as well to make things a bit more interesting. Since I really don't want to just have it as an episode rewrite for that would be a bit boring in the scheme of things in my opinion. These ideas I am added are everything from some of the older Expanded Universe Lore that has been thrown out of the window by LucasArts and Disney plus a few new ideas dreamed up by yours truly. This include the A-Wing since in use by Phoenix Squadron being my own version of the older R-22 Spearheads, a fan-created name for the Imperial Light Cruiser seen in this episode, and a few other little ideas thrown into the story for the fun of it including a new ship at the story.
That said I do believe that is enough of my jawing for it is time to get to the main event… Enjoy!
EDIT: I do apoglize about not posting this when I finished it several months ago, but Real Life got in the way and I had forgotten that I hadn't posted this story and the others I did just yet. So I'm sorry and I hope you folks do enjoy them.

Main Briefing Room
Rebel ShipLiberator
Curvus System, Lothal Sector
Outer Rim Territories
In the main briefing room of the CR90 Corvette Liberator several figures stood around a holo-table with faces ranging from hopelness to anger. From this holo-table a playback of battle finished with a large explosion that destroyed the ship known as Transport One, a captured Gozanti Class Cruiser.
"Dammnit! I know we can make it to the planet if we use the last two transports," the figure of Captain Hera Syndulla said with her green skin flushed a deeper green due to her anger over the failure of this mission so far.
"You have to be kidding Captain! Those two transports are rusting hulks. They barely move currently, I doubt they will be capable of flying into battle without flying apart. Transport One was the only modern, armored and shielded transport we had," a sweaty, disheveled human figure replied with scoff. Captain Syndulla blinked in surprise at this before narrowing her eyes at the human facing her from the other side of the table.
"That is true Lieutenant Dreis but what option do we have. We cannot sit back and do nothing!" the Twi'lek female shot back at the man with a growl. The human fighter pilot Lieutenant Garven Dreis scowled at her in response but before he could say anything in reply a third figure leaned forward on the edge of the table.
"That is enough you two!" the figure of Commander Jun Sato said as he looked at the two of them with a scowl on his own face making the arguing pair looked down a bit guilty before nodding their heads in response to the man. The Commander nodded at this before turning and looking over the rest of the gathered figures around the holo-table.
"That said anyone else have any suggestions on how we are going to get through this blockade and deliver the needed supplies to the people of Ibaar," the Commander mentioned with a wearied look on his for once again he had lost people under his command. For while Transport One only had a small crew, it still was seven more people he had lost to the Empire.
"Like I mentioned Commander I think we can get both of our remaining transports through the blockade. We may lose one but the other one will make it if we use the rest of the fleet to physically cover the transports with their hulls since Lieutenant Dreis is quite correct they won't last against the firepower of those cruisers but with our Corvettes putting their own hulls between the enemy and the transports it may work," Captain Syndulla mentioned as she brought up a series of images on the holo-table. The others gathered around the holo-table frowned at this before the Commander shook his head.
"That is a good strategy I admit Captain but our Corvettes will not last long against the turbolasers on those Avenger Class Cruisers for very long. What we need is some sort of heavy firepower to give those Cruisers a beating to allow the transports to get through any opening that may give us," the Commander explained as he crossed his arms over his chest as he stared at the images being displayed by the holo-projector. This made the pretty young Twi'lek captain sigh before nodding in agreement with the man.
"Commander what about the new flagship Nexus promised us?" Lieutenant Dreis asked as leant forward looking at the older man mentioning the codename of the main backer behind the Rebel Network. The Commander blinked at this before shaking his head at the younger man.
"It along with the reinforcements he promised us won't be ready for another few days but we cannot wait that long for the Imperials are tightening the noose a little more every day and we need to get them the supplies now not in a few days," Sato explained with a shake of his head making the others around the holo-table frown or curse at this. However before anyone else could say anything in response to their Commander a fourth figure stepped up from the back of the room where it had been leaning against the bulkhead.
"I may have an idea," the figure mentioned an older man said to the group as he approached the holo-table making the others look over at him. This man clearly had been one of the numerous Cloned Troops that had fought in the Clone Wars several years before.
"Very well Commander Rex the floor is yours," Sato mentioned with a wave of his hand making the older man nod in answer to the other man before taking a spot in front of the table's controls which he used to input some commands. A moment later a holo-image of the small Imperial Fleet blockading Ibaar appeared over the table.
"Now since we don't have the firepower to physically push through the blockade we need to take a different approach," the Clone Commander started to explain as the Fleet of the Phoenix Rebel Cell appeared facing off against the Imperial Fleet. However, what was different with the Rebel Fleet was that it was accompanied by several extra Starfighters that were quit larger than the small R-22 Spearheads they were currently using.
"We need use some heavy fighters to help push through the blockade by attacking the cruisers and let the transports make their drop while the remaining Spearheads of Phoenix Squadron keeps the TIEs busy," the clone continued on as the images on the holo-table started to show the so-called heavy fighters making attack runs on the Imperial Cruisers. This made Lieutenant Dreis and an older looking pilot standing next to him frown but kept quiet as the Clone Commander continued to explain.
"Now I am sure you are all wondering where we will get these heavy fighters well one of the locations I gave Captain Syndulla before we left Seelos is a former Republican Supply Depot that I along with my compatriots stashed some equipment in case it was needed after the end of the Clone Wars. Along with this equipment there are six complete ARC-170 Heavy Starfighters and needed parts to keep them running for a while," Rex mentioned nodding to the holo-image as it shifted to show a large asteroid with several artificial structures built onto it.
"This Depot is the Asteroid Shantipole in the Hoth System which has been taken over by the Mon Calamari Engineer Quarrie who takes care of the equipment left there. What we needed to do is send a group of pilots to Hoth to get those fighters and fly them back to the fleet," he said finishing up his explanation making the others look at him with varied looks on their faces.
"Shantipole Commander? That is a Smuggler Depot now I believe wouldn't that see a smuggler trying to make good with the Empire by selling us out," the older Phoenix Squadron pilot mentioned looking down at the image of the asteroid.
"Yes Quarrie uses the Depot to repair smuggler ships for a price which brings him some tidy profit, but I assure you he has no love for the Empire. It is a small operation therefore I doubt there will be any smugglers at the Depot by the time our people get there," the clone explained to the man who still looked a bit worried but nodded at the clone commander. The younger Lieutenant Dries on the other hand was distastefully looking at the images of the ARC-170 fighters.
"Are you sure these heaps of junk able to attack the Imperial ships? For if I remember right the Republic lost quite a lot of their ARC-170s during the later battles of the war after all," he said with a shake of his head. Rex only chuckled at this as he stared at the younger man.
"That is true Lieutenant but that was mostly due to the Separatists swarming them with a large amount of Droid Fighters like the Vulture Droids. This won't happen here since the Imperials have only four of those Pocket Carrier Gozanti Class Cruisers of theirs and the Avenger Class only carries six TIEs on exterior racks. That gives them thirty-four TIEs to throw against us Lieutenant, a drop in the ocean compared to the Droid Fighters the Separatists were able to throw against the Republic's ARC-170 squadrons. Of course that doesn't take in account the TIEs destroyed during the first attempt to run the blockade. I know the Ghost managed to take out four TIEs during the Battle, and I am sure you Phoenix Squadron guys managed to take down a few yourselves which evens the odds out against us a bit," the Clone Commander patiently explained with a small smile on his face making the young pilot blink at this before nodding in agreement for it does make sense.
"Alright then Commander Rex how many people do you need to get these fighters capable of combat?" Commander Sato asked the older man who looked thoughtful at this question before nodding to himself.
"Like I mentioned they should be ready to go when we get there, but to make sure I shall call Quarrie after we are done here to get them prepped and ready. As for crew a normal ARC-170 takes three plus an astromech to pilot it fully but these particular fighters have been modified to need two, one pilot, and a dedicated tail-gunner. The astromechs are stored along with the fighters therefore that should be no problems there," the clone explained to Sato who nodded before looking over at the gathered officers and crew remaining around the holo-table.
"Alright Lieutenant Dreis if I remember right you have some experience in T-16 Skyhoppers and Headhunters therefore you are going on this mission along with two of the new recruits we picked up on Garel," he ordered the young pilot who looked up shocked at this.
"But Commander Phoenix Squadron is down on experienced pilots we are going to need every pilot we can get to fight off those TIEs," he protested making Sato look over at him with a frown while the older pilot at his side sighed.
"That is true Lieutenant but Lieutenant Narra here can take care of Phoenix Squadron. I know that he was transferred from another Cell but he is still an experienced combat pilot," the Commander replied nodding to the second pilot, Lieutenant Arhul Narra, who had been transferred to Phoenix Squadron from another of the Rebel Cells to help fill in the squadron from the losses suffered to the squadron during the battle that saw the destruction of the Phoenix Home and most of the squadron. Lieutenant Dreis sighed at this before nodding in understanding making Sato nod back at him before turning his attention to Captain Syndulla and her team on the other side of the table from him.
"That said I also would like you to go with them along with Miss Wren which shall give us another crew for these fighters," he mentioned to her making the Twi'lek blink at him surprise before shaking her head.
"Commander I cannot go I am going to be needed to pilot one of the transports," she replied with a shake of her head. The Commander frowned over at her at this before shaking her head at her.
"No Captain I need you in one of these fighters for you are one of the better pilots we have now and I am sure Mister Jarrus can take that duty," the Commander replied to her with a nod to the tall human standing behind her.
"I agree with the Commander Hera, for it would be the best idea to have you in one of those fighters then in a rickety transport like those old GR-45s," the man mentioned to her making the Twi'lek look over at him in surprise before sighing.
"Fine Kanan I will go," she shot back with a frown on her face making the Commander give her nod in return before looking over at Rex.
"That will give us three heavy fighters fully crewed. Do you think that will be enough Commander Rex?" he asked the other Commander who only nodded as he stare into space with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Yeah that should do it for this mission. We can go get those last three fighters and the needed supplies to keep them going at a later time when we have time along with the other supplies located there that may need," the clone replied after a few moments of thoughtful silence from him. The others nodded at this while Syndulla looked up with a thoughtful look on her face.
"Well since we are most likely are going to take the Ghost to this Shantipole we can load her up with any desperate needed supplies," she mentioned making the others nod in agreement with her.
"Very good let's get do it ladies and gentlemen the Ibaarians need those supplies," Commander Sato spoke up which officially ended the combined debriefing and meeting. The others either nodded at this or saluted before exiting the room to head for their assigned missions for they could not afford to give the Empire any more time to starve the Ibaarian people.

Near Orbit
Ibaar, Ibeen System
Outer Rim Territories
Several Hours Later
Over seven hours later found the three remaining ships of the Rebel Phoenix Cell Fleet and the two aging GR-45 Light Transports trying to push through the Imperial blockade surrounding the innocent planet of Ibaar. However much to annoyance and disappointment of the rebels they couldn't stand against the larger, more powerful Avenger Class Light Cruisers facing off against them. Like fireflies around the larger ships the forms of a dozen or so Imperial TIE/LN Fighters fought against several of the rebel R-22 Spearheads with the agile speedier Spearheads slowly wearing the TIEs down one by one. However, this success was not shown in the larger ships as one of the rebel's CR-90 corvettes was damaged, while another was futilely trying to face off against one of the Imperial cruisers blocking the way to the planet for the twin GR-45 transports.
In the cockpit of the lead transport the figure of Kannan Jarrus desperately tried to pilot the old transport through any opening offered by the three Imperial Cruisers and their escorting Gozanti Class Cruisers to no avail. With some gritted teeth and a curse on his lips the former Jedi Padawan and current Rebel Freedom Fighter pulled the transport around for another pass. As he did so the ex-Jedi could only wonder what went wrong for they had sent off a group to the Shantipole Supply Depot to pick up the needed heavy fighters to help in breaking this blockade but soon after they left Commander Sato received an urgent message from the Ibaarian Underground that things were looking dicey for them and they desperately needed the supplies now. Therefore against his better judgement the Commander ordered a second attempt at running the blockade which went south very fast for the small Rebel Fleet. While the Corvettes where trying to block the smaller transports from being targeted by heavier guns of the Imperials cruisers just like the original plan drawn up by Hera Syndulla specified but while it was working to a certain extent it wasn't letting through the blockade for the Cruisers where remaining close together in formation with one another preventing the transports from slipping through them and delivering the supplies.
"Transport Three follow me around for another pass!" he ordered with a snarl on his face to the second GR-45 transport following close behind his own transport. Just then a pair of TIEs flashed past the transport firing on their deflector shields making the light transport shake around them.
"And Gunners keep those damn TIEs off!" he said calling over the intercom to the three men manning the transports meager defense guns. However, before anything happened a new voice joined his own on the communication channel.
"No you should keep on going in Spector One. We will deal with that flanking cruiser," a female voice said drawing a relieved smile from the Jedi. He followed that order and keep going towards the Imperial Cruisers with Transport Three following right behind him.
"Excellent timing Spector Two!" he called out and watched with grim satisfaction as the three ARC-170 Heavy Fighters dropped out of hyperspace almost right on top of the mentioned cruiser while the VCX-100 Transport Ghost dropped out of hyperspace nearby and dived into the fighter battle with the small transport's forward lasers firing taking out four TIEs in one go relieving some pressure off the Rebel's Spearheads. Meanwhile the three heavy fighters staggered launched six torpedoes into the cruiser with two slamming into a section of the ship's deflector shields which had been weakened by constant fire from one of the attacking corvettes before exploding taking out that section of the shields. The last four torpedoes sailing through this hole in the shields before slamming into the ship's hull sending it staggering into one of the smaller Gozanti Class ships destroying it and furthering damaging the cruiser. The damaged Avenger Class ship was then finished off quite easily by a slashing attack run by the three fighters using only their lasers. Then with that the way was open to the planet for the transports.
"Alright good job Spector Two! Transport Three follow me in!" Kannan called out as he sent the light transport through the hole in the blockade.
"Understood Commander! Right behind you!" the slight crazed voice of the former clone commando Gregor and pilot of Transport Three making the Jedi rolled his eyes briefly since the man had called him that since he along with his two compatriots joined the Rebels. However he didn't let this get to him and quickly brought the transport through the planet's atmosphere on a course towards the dropzone location given to them by the Ibaarian's Underground.
"We shall be right back Spector Two so leave the light on for us!" he called out over the communicator.
"No worries Spector One we shall see about taking out some of these stray TIEs and maybe pop a couple of these Slims running around," the amused voice of Hera Syndulla replied a moment later just in time for the communication channel to go static as the reentry briefly scrambled communications. Kannan rolled his eyes at this for Hera had used Phoenix Squadron's slang name for the poor small Gozanti Class cruisers due to them being slim-pickings with the ability to only carry four TIEs and two defense turrets. Soon the two transports were over the dropzone drawing his attention.
"This is Phoenix Transport Two! We are now approaching the drop-zone and you guys better be ready for we need to get out of here fast!" he called out over the communication channel for the Ibaarians and was relieved to hear the joyous voice of the Underground's leader reply soon after.
"Understood Phoenix Squadron! We shall be ready," the voice called out making the ex-Jedi smile briefly at the joy in the man's voice before he turned his attention to his piloting.
"Three…two…one…zero! Dropping now!" Kallen called out a few moments later and flipped the required switches sending the two dozen cargo containers held snug underneath the transport's armored hull to fall towards the ground. Behind him Transport Three did the same releasing another two dozen containers.
"We are now receiving the containers! Thank you Phoenix Squadron," the Ibaarian leader's voice replied a moment later making Kannan nod his head pleased before sending the transport back up into space just in time to see a second Avenger Class cruiser burning and the last cruiser pulling away from the planet with the remaining TIEs and Gozanti Class ships deseperatly clawing away from the now swarming forms of the Rebel ships. He smiled at this before joining up with the three Rebel Corvettes pleased that they managed to get the job done. He looked over to see the three ARC-170s forming up with the remaining seven Spearheads of Phoenix Squadron and the Ghost.
"This is Commander Sato well done on this mission and I shall see all of you at the final rendezvous point," the voice of Commander Sato came over the communicator with a pleased voice before it chopped off as the Liberator, the head CR-90 Corvette, jumped into hyperspace taking the Command with it. Soon the remaining two Corvettes the Allegiance and the damaged Emancipator followed behind the command ship. Finally Kannan pulled down the lever sending Transport Two into hyperspace along with the rest of the Rebel fleet leaving behind two destroyed Imperial Cruisers, a couple destroyed Gozanti Class ships, and around two squadrons worth of TIE Fighters destroyed along with a relieved joyous Ibaarian people.

Safe Haven
Unknown Location
Fifteen Minutes Later
Further into the Outer Rim in a dead, unwanted system is the point in space that is titled as Safe Haven the Phoenix Cell's current fall-back position. Currently floating at this silent point in space where three ships as if waiting for something. The pair of leading ships of the group where clearly examples of the rare DP-20 class of combat frigates built and developed by Corellian Engineering Corporation as a more militarized version of their successful line of modular corvettes. They had not been a popular product for CEC with many of their customers preferring the modularity of the CR-Series Corvettes over the dedicated combat frigates after they were introduced. Though more than a few would be built to serve in a variety of different backwater defense forces and like many CEC products in the fleets of various pirates as well as mercenaries. These two particular ships would even more quite rare in that they had only be built months before at a secret shipyard hidden somewhere in the Outer Rim since CEC stop building these ships years before because of the trouble finding buyers.
The final ship in the small fleet was a larger ship that bore a slight resemblance to the many arrow-headed ships of the Imperial Fleet like the powerful Imperial Class Star Destroyers and the small but fleet Avenger Class Light Cruisers. Though it should be noted that it was more of the latter then the former in that this ship resembled more. That said this particular ship was custom-built out of a Quasar Fire Class Bulk Carrier which no longer was a simple cargo bay, a command pod, and cargo clamps held all held together by a thin bracing of hull plating. Instead it now bore a slight resemblance to Avenger Class Light Cruiser though a bit larger overall. It sported a short command tower along the back of the ship, four Double Turbolaser turrets were mounted along the top and bottom of the ship similar in arrangement to that of the Imperial Cruiser and several anti-fighter lasers. However what really made this ship so unique was its vast interior hanger and how it deployed its fighters into battle. On either side of the ship where a pair of fighter launch bays that opened from either side of the ship allowing fighters to be launched into battle. To recover its fighters it sports a pair of smaller recovery bays on the backside of the ship flanking the engine block or through the main docking bay along the bottom of the ship behind its second pair of anti-ship guns. Both the recovery bays and the docking bay can be closed off with armored bulkheads when in battle just like the launch bays. This system was an expanded version of the fighter launch system first used by the destroyed Phoenix Home and its sisters.
These three ships soon had company as the small but victorious fleet of the Phoenix Cell arrived in the dead system with numerous flashes as they exited hyperspace. The crews of these ships were quite shocked at the appearance of ships waiting for them before they were quickly informed of what was going and the tired yet victorious mood aboard these ships were soon replaced with a more joyous and excited mood as the two small fleets started to merge into one larger fleet. The Phoenix Rebel Cell was now reinforced by new ships and personal, and were quite ready to fight against the Empire more so then ever before.

Main Hangar
Rebel ShipPhoenix Wing
Safe Haven
Unknown Location
In the main hangar of the new Phoenix Wing Hera Syndulla stood with Sabine Wren in the hangar watching as the Ghost came in to land. As she wait the young Twi'lek woman looked around amazed at the large hangar she found herself in. For the Phoenix Wing like the Phoenix Home before it was specifically modified and rebuilt to serve as a carrier for Phoenix Squadron's R-22 Spearheads. However where the destroyed Phoenix Home was barely capable of supporting the entirely of the squadron the new Phoenix Wing could do that and more. There were already six brand-new Spearheads waiting in the hanger when they had arrived which combined with the seven remaining Spearheads and the three ARC-170s the Phoenix Cell sported quite a collection of firepower at its command. Even then the hanger looked like it had the space that it could carry two more squadrons worth of fighters if needed. Then there was the facilities offered on the carrier for not only where there dedicated cargo bays sit aside for spares parts and fuel for the embarked fighters but there was a couple dedicated machine shops capable of producing anything else needed.
With a shake of her head sending her Lekku briefly flying around her head she turned to watched as the Ghost, her ship, rose through the very small docking bay at the back of the hanger. It was so similar to the docking bays on Imperial Star Destroyers yet was quite smaller with the Ghost barely able to squeeze in. Then with a series of whines the ship's repulsorlifts activated sending it floating forward into the hanger bay itself before settling it onto the landing legs which hit the deck plates of the hanger with a small gong like sound. Hera flinched at this for she really shouldn't allowed Ezra and Zeb pilot the ship since they were some of the poorest pilots of her crew after all but she had little choice. She still smiled however when the two started to walk down the ship's boarding ramp towards the woman waiting for them where Ezra soon found himself hugged by the Twi'lek Captain which made the young orphaned Jedi apprentice blush slightly while the other two members of the crew present chuckled at this reaction.
"So where is Kanan?" he asked after a moment when Hera let the young man go. Hera smiled at this before turning around and waving at the hanger's far wall and the hatch built into said wall.
"He is taking care of some last minute stuff onboard Transport Two he shall see about meeting us in the briefing room for the debriefing. So let's get going," she mentioned before walking towards the distant hatch with the other members of the crew following behind her. As she did so she could only smile in pleasure as the three started talking with Sabine mentioning her experience in playing gunner in an ARC-170 and Ezra rapidly explaining his experiences in helping Zeb pilot the Ghost during the battle. Hera's little family did real good and with the support of the expanded Phoenix Cell and its forces behind them they could take a couple more steps in the liberation of the Galaxy from the Empire. Small steps she privately admits but still steps in the right direction for eventually the Empire will fall and her family would be there all the way fighting the good fight against them for that is what they did the best. They were the Specters of Lothal and Freedom Fighters against the tyranny of the Galactic Empire.
-o-End-o-
…..And that is about it for this little bit of insanity from me. It is far longer then any of my other shorts I have done. But this story demanded to be written by my outrage over the "Wings of a Master" episode.
Alright first of all the Nexus mentioned in this story is of course Senator Organa since I never understood the reasoning for the Rebels to actually advertise that Bail was one of their major supporters. Heck! In the one episode Sabine all-out said his name in the presence of her old friend who works with the Black Sun! It is bound to get back to them about this and maybe from there to the Empire. Therefore I gave Organa his own code-name which made some sense to me in the scheme of things.
Then we have the guest appearances of two characters seen in later sources, Garven Dreis the commander of Red Squadron at Yavin and Arhul Narra who took over for Garven after his death during the Battle of Yavin IV. Here they give us some into the viewpoints of Phoenix Squadron itself. I really don't think they are officially anywhere near Phoenix Squadron during this time or they are even flying with the Rebels this early.
Next we get the appearance of the Phoenix Wing the replacement for the destroyed Phoenix Home. The Wing is a Star Wars version of the Agamemnon Class Flagship from the Mobile Suit Gundam SEED anime since I always thought that there are similarities between that of the Agamemnon and Star Destroyers. For the purpose of this story it started life as a Quasar Fire Class Bulk Cruiser before it was completely rebuild into a more stable, armored starship we see here. It sports the ability to carry around three squadron of fighters and still able to exchange fire with enemy ships. The idea for this ship came about after I realized that there is really no official ship that carries fighters and yet capable of being a warship as well on a smaller platform. I could have used a Rebel Escort Frigate but canonically it doesn't sport a fighter hanger if I recall. That said I like this design therefore I may use it again for something else.
Finally I like to mention that I tried to keep Legend and non-canon material from this story with only really the DP-20, the Spearheads, and a few minor things the only real additions I added to this story. Even then a few stuff may have been slipped into the story without my knowing.
With that said folks that is it for this story therefore I hope you enjoyed it. For it was a fun thing to write I do admit! I may do this again!
EDIT: Well. It has been awhile since I wrote this story, and several things have been introduced by the show since then that makes this story kind of obsolete in the scheme of things. First, the reveal of the second Phoenix Home which is a Quasar Fire Class similar to my Phoenix Wing mentioned here. /sigh/ Another is the capture of several Y-Wings with a couple ending up in Phoenix Cell as Green Squadron. However, I figured I post this anyways to see what others thought about it. Thank you.
