Rebel offensive tactics are shifting. They are now targeting Imperial officers.
Kyle blasts at Janthis, lannding a very solid hit. Cass goes for the General and scores a hit. Rhys misses a shot on Jaiden.
Coll seems a bit miffed by that last shot and double-fires at Eerin, using a Fortune point to make sure of the first shot. Still, disappointingly little effect; Eerin is not easy to hurt with a Light pistol. Rylis takes a shot at Eerin as well, but it'ws no good. Eerin was dodging both, though, and he's going through frames at a hefty rate.
Jaiden blasts again at Drakkon with his concussion rifle; shot goes a little wide.
Janthis orders a charge- risky indeed, and a failure. Charging up those steps is near impossible and Drakkon orders his forces into a set line to resist it.
The Imperial attack is now slowly dying.

Going well at the Records.

Galahad- well, the only possible place is the one you just left. it's the only one you are reasonably sure some of your people are still around.
The Imperials are pulling back! Coll and Janthis alike do their utmost to pull their forces off the steps with the minimumn of casualties, to prepare for a second assault. Drakkon in fact has to give orders to his forces not to pursue, as was their instinct, lest they lose all their advantage by charging into the mass at the base. Rylis blasts away at the Osokans to help cover this move, as does Aruvs as well with his railgun, this time avoiding killing any troopers as they withdraw.
Jaiden fires another heavy weapon shot at Drakkon, which he jumps clear of to avoid most of the blast.
Lyle blasts at Eerin, who stands fast and does well to- a miss.
Kyle goes for Janthis, and rolls a 19 ans a 20... nasty! he catches Janthis dead on during his withdrawl. Cassius lands a hit on Coll, whilst Rhys snap fires at Coll for little effect.
This place is a bloodbath- there are hundreds od dead troopers on the sides! The Osokans cheer and taunt.
"GENERAL COLL!" yells out Drakkon, loudly. "COME MEET ME!"

Troopers at the records fire rather better that turn.

Galahad- well, the only possible place is the one you just left. it's the only one you are reasonably sure sopme of your people are still around.
Eerin clicks rapidly as he shouts a war cry down the Justice Pit at the retreating stormtroopers, roused to a glorious fury by Drakkon calling out General Coll.
"[You will pay for what you've done to this City!]" Eerin clicks loudly and angrily, sending a rocket zipping towards Jaiden to cover the Guildmaster.
The Imperials seem to be preparing to stand off and try and clear the way before attacking again.
"You can't possibly hope to win!" Coll shouts up the pyramidal structure. His once crisp uniform is damp from the light rain and spattered with mud and blood. "Your people, your world, your city, they're all doomed! The might of the Imperial Army will see to it!"
"Coward!" says Drakkon back, simply.
Meanwhile, Scarlet is across. But these last few runs are going to be harsh.
