Mission 10: An engagement with the Emperor
This mission has to be the most simple mission in whole campaign. Direct your fleet and Palpatine to Bothawui orbit, and then land on the planet. Emperor wants to give Bothans lesson himself, so you only got him and two guardsmen (they will probably die fast anyway).
If you won't do something very stupid, this mission is impossible to lose. Just destroy all Bothan colonies using airstrikes and Palpatine powers. Emperor can replenish his health during fight, but it is good to build some healing stations anyway - whenever it is possible. Remember, that you can strike larger groups of Bothans with lightning or (a lot funnier) convert them to your side.
Conquest
Finally, Imperial-class star destroyers become available! Build as many, as you can, because they will form core of your fleet in following skirmishes. By this time, all rebel planets should be defeated, so you don't have to be afraid of sneak attacks. There is only Tatooine garrison left, but it will rather stay idle, so you can build up your forces as long, as you want to.
