I think I've figured out a way to keep us from advancing at such a ridiculous rate again... Going from level 1 to level 6 in a single session was a bit much.
Next time in the Forgotten Front campaign... What happened to the remains of the Imperial Garrison... The Emperor's Hand, and the Officer with scars?
Fight a holding action without mechs (because they're being reconfigured for space combat) with your first engagement against actual stormtroopers (these will be veteran stormtroopers, not the crappy Spaarti Cylinder sort) supported by AT-SA Walkers (AT-HT was what I called em earlier, but All Terrain - Siege Artillery fits their use more), AT-ATs, AT-STs, AT-PTs, and just about everything the Imperials could possibly cram into the Venator IIs that are landing on Akhett Zora a few days after the fight.
Evacuate the planet (with mechs), run an imperial blockade while being chased by the Advanced Imperial Star Destroyer Glory and her attendant ships, commanded by Grand Admiral Zaarin...
Yeah, even more opportunities for epicness in the next session I think.

Okay Cale... Ral, Nelo, and a GMPC were hired to act as hands on a Consular-class Corvette. In order to test the hands the captain started a bar brawl.
I house ruled that a bar bottle is not an improvised weapon in a bar brawl but a simple one. They knocked out 3 off duty scouttroopers, their sergeant, a bouncer, and about twelve bar patrons.
And they leveled...
They got to the ship, got ripped out of hyperspace by a CC-2200 Detainer into a minefield of ion mines, which the ship collided with killing the captain, disabling most primary systems. The crew had to escape their quarters, and activate the anti-boarding system before the pirates boarded.
When the pirates boarded their hacker attempted to override the anti-boarding system but was electrocuted to death by Nelo who overloaded the the console he plugged into remotely.
They had 4 squads of pirates (CL8s) and a leader (CL9) and forced their way into the ship by blasting all the turrets.
Nelo was on a roll however and rerouted fuel into the compartment they were in (the sentry guns had succeeded in bringing down one squad) and had Brett's character ignite it. Causing a fire that consumed the pirates.
Then the crew activated the ship's weapon systems and destroyed the still attached Rendili Corvette that the pirates were using.
Then they flew out of the asteroid field and landed at a planet named Akhett Zora.
Oh, and they leveled twice...
They had to talk the Customs officials on the planet out of confiscating their ship, find someone that would buy their cargo of phobium power cells.
And then the mecha elements started showing up...
The guy that bought the power cells from them did so in exchange for repairing the ship (replacing a hyperdrive and a ton of damage takes awhile... they're still working on it.) He was an ethnically Mando'a Duros... and head of the local MandalMotors testing facility.
He offered Nelo a thousand credits to track down a thief who had stolen a prototype vehicle and bring back both the thief and vehicle intact.
The prototype vehicle was an open cockpit armsuit derived from an SD-6 war droid. Ral had gone to bed around now...
Nelo succeeded in stunning the thief in the cockpit without being chopped in half or blasted to a pulp from the vehicle's main guns and took him in to be interrogated.
The thief said that he was working for an ISB agent that was working undercover as a droid shop owner. Nelo went to apprehend him, and the agent activated his detachment of guard droids (refitted Droid Commandos) and threatened Nelo with a thermal detonator.
Nelo rolled a crit, and rolled for a result on the crit chart that indicated he'd shot the guy in the head... Instant death. Moreover the thermal detonator had a dead man's switch so it cooked off, and set the other three that were in his satchel off.
Nelo expended a destiny point to keep from being cooked while the store exploded and the remaining droids, now without a master went on a killing spree... Nelo ran into the cantina and the local mandalorias helped the GMPC gun down the mechs.
The explosion made the local imperial garrison go on alert... The mandalorian contact we had asked Nelo's character to extract an elderly neimodian from out from under an Imperial raid... at which point things got epic.
