USH'S STAR WARS GAME- CAMPAIGN II EPISODE II (DARK SIDE)- In the Coils of the Serpent

Gallador always prefered to avoid unnecessary combat if possible, even the greatest warriors among the Jedi can go down when facing too many opponents in wrong circumstances...

But those thugs were no match for the power of the Darkside! He could see the fear in their eyes, they could give him some bruises, but those worms know very well they are already at the death`s doorstep.... Annoyed by the minor injury, Gallador focuses the dread, revealing in it.

Ushgarak, I am using Strength from Fear, attacking anyone who tries to flank Galder.

Noted! As soon as you hack one of them down you will get your bonus.

Didn`t I kill one of them already?

You need to kill one in order for the bonus to kick in.

Galder whisks his blade around again in a vivid display, slashing across the chests of two more.

(Twirl!)

Why in the Sith's name did I not use that power before? 😱

Rand will sacrifice player privilege for Defend.

Rianna will keep moving through, Defend for defense again.

I guess it is reasonable to let Gallador use it now. That nets him a +1 to hit bonus against all Guards for the rest of the combat. FINALLY we are getting the Dark Side power up being used here! Just to be annoying, though, his next atack rolls -9 and is no good. Galder, rather smugly, hacks down two more with ease.

One kill for Takuan as he pushes on forwards, whilsr Rianna barged her way out to freedom.

Ok, bad guys.

Hmm, all we have is a +8 on poor Takuan, for seven damage.

Which leaves the situation at the end of the sequence like this!

Tanic spins, cutting into one of the guards with his sabre. Defend, again.

"GALDER!" calls down Kuylen from high above. "Make sure none of Pelloran's men escape down to the lower levels. And look out for Hade!"

In the heat of the tropics, Scovione readies his sabre against the drug-running enforcers of the notorious Coruscant-based Nostra crime syndicate. "Hold my flank, Gallador," he orders.

Crowding amongst the zombie-like throngs of hostiles, Tanic is being overwhelmed... you must hold them all back!

Rand must dash across the arena to survive- the Storm Droid just launched a volley of hellbore missiles towards his quarter, but these damn fool Gladiators won't get out of his way!

"Over here!" yells Doon, beckoning you to safety.

Chased by the Belseraphon elimination squads, Takuan relies on his instincts to guide him through the dense undergrowth, when he bursts out onto a small clearing, with three burial mounds., By them stands a figure in black robes.

A little late to be discovering secrets. Move on, little one, before your doom catches you

Whilst Rianna is triyng to find her way through to the damn ship, in this maze of wheat! Grunts are everywhere, trying to hem her in...

"There she is!" comes Helkin's voice.

?!

Gallador is stunned for a moment, than his Anger and Frustration make him double his efforts to slaughter them all.

Tanic roars in frustration and charges the zombies, raising his sabre as he slashes downward through their blank faces. A snapped attack, Ush.

Reflection as defence.

Melkor, it's hallucinations from our pasts!
Galder is Scovione!

The weird atmosphere is creating illusions of batles we've fought before.

Actually, it's the drug we took so we could survive in this atmosphere.

Rianna, incredibly frustrated, attacks at the two nearest militia men. Snapped attack at two of them, Defend for defense.

At least, I assume Galder is actually Scovione.

Okay, Gallador uses Strike Power on the nearest Guard. Also, he allows his hatred to guide him( Dark Emotions Hatred on one of the guards, and adding 2 to roll, if possible).

how dramatic 😛
combat push on two of them. defend on 2 attacks.

Ok, first of all, Gallador activates Dark Emotions. He rolls a -1 to hit, for a 12, and is then rather surprised when the roll gets +4 added to it, for two force points, for a 16, and he slices clean through the Enforcer.

"Not very seemly, Gallador..." says Scovione.

Tanic rolls +3 as he hacks through one og the puppets... they are surrounding you, Tanic!

Rianna brings down two foes easily... but that Osokan Hunting squad is getting closer and closer!

Defend on two attacks makes no sense, Takuan.

A +8 on Gallador is a very definite hit, for eight damage.

Tanic reflects the first attack on him... miss. The other six blast on in... one of them is a +7 for a 16, a hit! Six damage.

And the inevitably accurate Miramar score a +6 and a +7 on Takuan, which is two hits! 4 from the first and 5 from the second.

Takuan then brings one down with a push. However, Takuan, your pursuers are getting closer!

Clearly unworthy. You shall shortly die

The Miramar in fact fire again, which I shall assume you defend against- this time you are safe.

eek...push on two more. takuan will reflect an attack..defend on the rest

Snap 2 attacks, Defend for defense....

Takuan, what are you doing? More of them are coming. Shift your ass before the ones with the staffs turn up!

And the same goes for Rianna too, minus the staffs, plus the whips.

Okay, snap 1 attack and then run, with Defend.
