USH'S GAME EPISODE V- 'MAUSOLEUM'- DARK SIDE AREA

Both sides are lined up in the ruined north quarter of the city.

The Zeitonian council member Jeren'Toc steps forwards on behalf of the defenders. (this convo is in the native language but it can be translated by others for you)

"People of Zeiton!" he calls out. "What is this senseless slaughter? Would we tear down our anicent civilisation for the sake of mere demagogues and rabble rousers? Look what we have done to our city! If we all lay down our arms now, there will be no recriminations, simply the effort to re-build!"

Shi'Haia, for the aggressors, comes forwards also.

"Don't try and fight us with mere words, Jeren'Toc! The lies you wish to perpetuate have done nothing but enslave our people!"

"I speak no lies! We no longer recognise the authority of our doddering Elder! We see the truth of things, of the Galaxy, and of the Force!"

"Hah!" says Shi'Haia. "Yet you are blind, as you seek to fetter us in unseen chains. Too long have we skuled beneath the surface, trapped on this dying world, left to die like wounded animals. No more! We now ally ourselves with the piwer that will free us! The Sith will lead us to victory!"

"You fool, Shi'Haia!" cries out Jeren'Toc. "The Sith will only bring you death and enslavery of a sort you cannot even envisage! They are your doom, not your saviours! Only the Jedi can be our salvation now! Our people must turn to them!"

"Oh really?" says Shi'Haia. "Because look what they have done for us before! Did the Sith plan to leave us locked up down here for all eternity? No! The Jedi are the jailers of the Force, the Sith are those who will free us to take our place in the Galaxy! Zeitonians, the Sith bring us freedom! Tear down this old order, and build one that will be a monument to the might of Zeiton!!" There is a huge cheer from his side, and they start to charge forwards.

"Engage them," says Jeren'Toc. "Set your weapons to stun, don't hurt them unless you have to!"

Shi'Haia just snorts. "Annihilate them all," he says, simply.

"Now is our chance," says Kuylen. "Start to slip away..."

Takuan, you had to withdraw away from that tank in the end- also after suffering heavy lossed.

TAkuan, losing himself in the crowd, starts following his coleagues to their destination.

Using the force to mask ant sign of his presence, Rah also slips away to join his compadres.

Your Lieutenants slip away with you...

The approach to the archives will not be easy. Even with the distraction, there are many enemies.

First of all, you must break in through the courtyard to get inside. There are double doors on the far side of that courtyard, but between you and them are some fifty guards and one of those tanks. Planning time, folks...

Galder slips away, sticking to the shadows...

"alright" says Takuan to his comrades "we have the element of surprise on our side. We must fully use it. I say the tank must be the first to be taken out. What weapons do we have?"

Well, depends what weapons you can reasonably carry that you brought with you- so no rocket launchers and the like.

Ush, how many of our 'disposable' troops are with us?

Two dozen.

well...you said that i could flip the thing over, if i had the time..i guess i have the time right now.....

Even though we are all headed for the Mausoleum?

Right now you are just headed to the Archives, Galder, with a small, elite assault team.

As soon you you start trying, Takuan, they will sense it. It's not like fighting normal people, this work. So the plan would need more to it than that.

Kuylen'll be here soon, of course, but no bonus points for leaving the work to him...

well, yeah ofcourse....it'll have to be planned. i try to do something to it WHILE the others take down their parts....we'll have to see who does what

Okidokey, I shall await your plans!

("But Ush, we've never had to THINK before...", the Dark Siders moan...)

Talking to the other captains Rah makes a suggestion "How about we divert the tanks attention with some of the Zietonians while we attack the tank. If we mask our selves with the force the occupants will concentrate on the Zietonians, we can then burn a hole in the side with sabres and take control or throw a grenade in and disable it."

It will take concentration to do that. The Galders of this world are not great at masking their presence.

i was asking about the weapons ..beacause i thought i heard kuylne say something about some...new additions to our arsenal 🙂

Yes indeed! But no-one brought them to the war.

Thinking? Why are you making us think? 😛

Heh... welcome to Big School...
