USH'S ORIGINAL TRILOGY GAME EPISODE I 'LANZAR'- Rebel Alliance Thread

If Cass escorts Rhys, will he be able to attack every TIE that attacks Rhys?

No, I am afraid not.

Me
I would hunt in return.
Someone needs to kill the Artillery.
So switch off or whatever, but keep on them.

When two targets hunt each other, it becomes a Duel, which can stay locked in for as long as you desire.

If the artillery is not attacked, the STs will not fire; it can be an all-air combat.

True.
But we might not be able to take out all of the TIEs
And if its all Air combat, the artillery will keep moving right?

(About how long do we judge to have before the artilley is inside the shield, and therefore out of our range?)

Longer than you could reasonably need in this fight.

(Oh, ok. Then let's all go after the TIE's. We clean them up then get back to the Artillery. Just fight smart and watch the damage.)

Fighters it is! And your foe accepts your duel, Cass- he has Tactical Awareness enough to effectively refuse it, if need be.

5 plays two in the first pass between our two duellists! Miss miss!

Meanwhile, the others are on form- Kyle, Rhys and Scarlet all destroy foes. However, the arrival of another three TIEs from elsewhere on the planet evens things up again, though these fighters are not from the blockade.

In any case, all of you get seven attackers each. Cass, they are on +1 to hit you, focusses as you are on your duel.

Not great rolling from the TIEs...

"Take 'em down!" Scarlet shouts, making another pass through the TIE fighters.

Dogfighting!

"What, they have more buddies?! Good shot, Kyle, keep it up..."

Dogfighting again.

"No problem, the more the merrier. Just not too much more."

(Wonder where the extras came from? Is it a setup?)

Crap one if it is.

Like I said earlier, the remaing TIEs have to be somewhere

So are they simply patrolling the planet, then?

You have no idea.

(Well, let's not waste time then. It's never good when we lose track of the Imperials. At least it hasn't been yet.)

2 and a 1 from the duellists. What are you guys doing, space-tickling?

Kyle misses this turn with a 3. Hmm, maybe my D20 rolling is off.

Scarlet and Rhys score solid kills, though.

No,
Cass is simply testing the limits of his opponent.
Hmm, I think I'll pump a luck point into this next roll.
See how he likes that.

You might want to save it, but that's just me...

Scarlet makes another attack on a TIE Fighter. Dogfighting.

Is it possible to pull off that trick where you shoot one TIE and it collides with another, taking them both out?

I am afraid not.
