Lance, they are all dressed in black, like commandos or special forces.
At least five gunmen are now aiming for Verlaine, who is trying to fall back under cover of his bodyguard. The two carrying torpedo launchers are about to fire at the area directly behind Verlaine. The other eight gunment are duelling with his bodyguard... and now four of them are taking shots at you!
Gundark moved swiftly in front of Verlaine and Arleth, her sabre swinging in a blur to block the laser blasts concentrated in her direction. As Kiel Force-pulled one of the rocket launchers from the man's startled grip, she deflected one of the laser bolts into the other launcher causing it to explode, killing its operator on impact.
Bloody hell! What is wrong with this place? My recent post here has disappeared. Including the edit I made; the other Jedi is Ithrorn, not Arleth.
Can't be bothered to repeat it all. You all have three main options; protect Verlaine, sweep out the attackers or aid Lance, who is picking up a lot of heat from several gunmen.
Lance blocks most of the shots and the other ones he nudges with the force to move them away from hitting him. He also tries to keep his force anticipation up so he can learn the moves of the attackers before they make them.
(I know my attention is based soley on the attackers. But atleast it gets them away from Verlaine.)
Unlike mass ranks of battle droids or pirates, these people are in isolated posutuins and good cover on the roof tops. It is VERY difficult to deflect bolts back at them and maybe dangerous just to charge them down, depending how fast and accurately they can fire.
Kiel makes his way around to the side of the ones attacking Lance.
I assume you are advacing as far as you can go, Lance, but the ones firing at you are on different rooftops to you. I also assume the one you just took care of was the sniper you originally went for.
Ithrorn is still frantically blocking shots in the middle, as Gundy covers Verlaine from the other side. There are still about ten people gunning for you guys!
Lance jumps into the air and throws his still activated lightsaber towards one of the gunmen. As the weapon is in the air Lance dodges the other blaster bolts flying his way. After the blade disables the weapon of the man and knocks him out Lance calls on the force to bring it back.
Once it is safely within his hand he starts to block the bolts with fierce tenacity.
A blaster bolt exploded into the permacrete at Gundark's feet even as she continued deflecting the constant laser fire. This is some welcome... she thought, swinging her sabre wide left to block yet another bolt heading toward Verlaine. She glanced over her shoulder at Arleth. "That door there behind you ! Can you get inside ?"
