Damn i burn my force and frames quick. How did i get to the third level? And how did i frame out?
I assumed you were going up with Rusky to save time- the frame out includes the time spent moving. The Force got blown on Reflection, which is not cheap.
I am afraid you need to define what the contact is, Vlad- and I am equally afraid I cannot allow you to define it as something immediately useful! You had best come up with who that contact is.
Your lead is that Marcus found the shipping company receipt, as he guessed the equipment had been shifted out and was looking for such a thing.
Ah yes, sorry Xeth. Unlike Multiple Attacks, Flurry Fire shots really are just many separate attacks at once. However, that's why they are at -2 to hit- and that's with all four levels in it! At level one, for example, each shot is at -4 to hit.
Ok, Roan, your attack on the Taskmaster finishes him, and you and Sunda hop over the barricades together.
Strine is going nutso, following up his three attacks on Xeth with another on Roan, which I shall assume a dodge on. Six pirates and a taskmaster up top fire on Roan also.
Everyone is in luck- the shots miss. Ok, Sequence done. New speed roll- a 2.

Strine the man to go again... he'll shoot at... Xeth.
Everyone else to act. Rusky- Bash on those turrets not a good idea. it can only get an Outcome of two on those turrets, and those turrets are armoured to reduce by two all hits against them.
Ah. Well, you have the company. As far as tracing the shipment is concerned, you could poke around their records... if you had Fix-it...
... so instead you'll have to come up with a more detective like way. You have the time of the shipment, the contents, and the company, so you may well be able to find a way to get a lead on the destination...
"Yes, indeed..." says the Senator. "Well, the thing is, of course, none of us in the Senate really have much idea about this... well..." he comes down, whispering to your ear, "'Sith thing'."
(You guess the observing Senators would have had to be clued in)
"I wanted an expert to advise me on such matters- but the only ones around were Jedi, and the Jedi being the prosecutors, I could hardly bring a Jedi advisor aloing when I am meant to be an impartial observer!
"But then I was reading all the gumf we have on... this subject. And I was amused to read of your mission two years ago, and my small part in it. And lo and behold, was I surprised when I read what that whole deal with Ascar was about! Here I was, thinking he was just a businessman, and it turns out he;s this big expert on these areas as well! If it was not for your rpoert, kellan, I never would have known! So I set to work on acquiring him immediately. It is part of his parole conditions."
"I am delighted to be able to offer my services to the Republic, of course," says Ascar, with a smile.
Kellan's suppressed irritation came rushing back. She made a mental note to make an immediate visit to Archives as soon as she was released from what was rapidly becoming, to her, a mental torture chamber. She expected to next find that report plastered over the walls of the senate chamber. Who the hell was releasing this information from Temple records ?
Ascar must have spoon fed Riordan that report, the way the Senator was gushing about his newfound personal adviser. Glancing at Kir, she wondered what other information he was passing into Riordan's ear; Kir's carefully sculpted facade was the finest stage performance Kellan had ever witnessed.
"Then I'm sure you agree, Senator, that the history you know thus far tells us that the Sith thing is not something to be taken lightly."
"Oh yes, but of course! The history books are only too full of dire warnings! So it is very imperative that this case goes ahead as planned, if there IS anything to be learned from it... disgraceful, Kealln. The whole thing! Disgraceful! Well, I am glad you are well. I must be getting back to the Senate Chamber. If you ever need any help, please just ask..."
