USH'S GAME EPISODE V- 'MAUSOLEUM'- The Battle Royale
THE SET-UP: It has been a long journey for both sides to here, the planet Zeiton, home of the Mausoleum of Demnos. And here the players have discovered the Zeitonians, an amphibious race blessed/cursed with the universal ability of all of them to use the Force, a race shattered and doomed since the Jedi and Sith fought tooth and nail over therir world in the great Sith Wars millennia ago.
Neither side found a friendly reception from the authorities, the only people who know the truth of thr Force, a truth hidden from the rest of the people for many reasons (note I do not intend to go over all of that in this thread as Light and Dark Side do not quite believe the same things right now).
However, complex as those events may be, it has all come down to this. In the midst of a great Civil War on the planet, Kuylen and his agents seek out the ancient book of records that stretches back to the time of the first Elder of Zeiton from which Kuylen can discover the location of the Mausoleum. The Jedi, in consultation with the current Elder after thier actions on this weorld proved... unhelpful... could only sit by and watch as Kuylen's Agents- outnumbering the Jedi and with conventional troops support- enter the Archive, recover the book, and then murder the current Elder whom they see as the larger threat.
Kuylen plans to go off and read the book but had made some comments before about this being the time the Jedi will die. When reminded of this, he agrees, and orders his men to slaughter the Jedi immediately. Kuylen himself, however, does not deign to take part. Chion, taking tactical command, zones in his best fighters on the two Masters, whilst sending the conventional troops and less capable Zeitonian Council Members with sabres to tie up the other Jedi in the meantime.
HOW THIS WORKS: This is a battle in two parts. This is the first part, the Swordfight.
Marcus and Gundark will each face three opponents out of Chion, Galder, Saar, Jolanta, Wraith and Rah.
Roan, Kosta and Xeth face the five Council Members, the nine conventionally armed men and also Takuan if he choses to fight (though he is not looking well right now).
The action will be split into rounds as normal.
In each round, unless Takuan intervenes (in which case he duels an opponent as normal), Roan, Xeth and Kosta square off against opponents with a combined skill of 15. If they win three rounds, the Jedi is hit. Every time the Jedi wins a round, however, the combined skill of his opponents goes down by one as he kills one of them. Get them down to a skill of 10 and the problem is over, though due to the time limit that is unlikely.
Marcus and Gundark have a rather more survival-orientated agenda. They will be attacked by, and will strike at, each opponent in turn. However, BOTH of the Dark Siders, when neither attacking or defending, can make supporting moves to make the Master's lives more difficult.
An analysis of this nattle is pointless, you all know how it looks.
The time limit on this battle is- and this may surprise you- five rounds. Then the situation will develop.
I just need the Dark Siders to pick who fights who, and for people to make general threats at each other, and we can go! The Dark Siders go first, Roan, Kosta and Xeth have to deal with generci lightsabre slashes from a Council member.

Ok, Galder and Rah are on Gundark, they can be joined by Chion.
That means it is Wraith, Saar and Jolanta on Marcus, all agreed?

Yes, Fire is busy right now and so Marcus may be the main delay here for a little bit.

You'd get back up. But the choice is yours.
Of course, one of the Jedi could be mean and try and make a deliberate attempt to engage you...

Ok then! Right, let's see how complex this becomes...
It is round zero.
-
Current scores:
Galder/Rah/Chion: 0, Gundark: 0
Wraith/Saar/Jolanta: 0, Marcus: 0
Frogs (Roan) 15/0
Frogs (Xeth) 15/0
Frogs (Kosts) 15/0
-
The first two scores are standard duelling socres.
The next three are the frogs scores. The number on the left is their skill. This has never really been used in SW before but all three of you play the Matrix so you know 15s are good. Roan and Kosta have 14s, Xeth is a 13 (though Xeth can make that up with agile moves sometimes... all things considered, Roan and Kosta are better sabreists though).
Incidentally, for you three, duelling does not use the standard Matrix combat system- the random number generated in duelling is MUCH smaller so skill counts for even more.
Now, each time one of the frog groups wins a round, they score, and the number on the right goes up. If it gets to 3 there is trouble. Each time you win a round, the skill of the frogs goes down by one as you kill one of the foot soldiers.
Ok, it is Galder and Wraith to attack. Roan, Xeth and Kosta must fend off early, and very standard, attacks from their sabre opponents whilst tree gun-armed guys each close in around them, so I want DEFENCES from them...

Galder rushes Master Gundark, stopping suddenly and jabbing at her head with one blade and at her stomach with the other.
