USH'S ORIGINAL TRILOGY GAME EPISODE I 'LANZAR'- Imperial Thread

You are already in position for all that. I need your battle plan for when you attack. You have five trading ships, one of which is the Last Laugh, and a fighter to worry about.

Well, we should devote the smallest amount of our force to the fighter, only enough to keep it occupied, while the rest of the TIEs divide evenly to attack the trading ships.

Ok, good, that is the sort of thing that it is your job as Squadron Leader to come up with. Any similar orders? The pilots will do whatever you ask.

Actually, starting with the Last Laugh , concentrate maximum fire on the trade ships one by one, so, if worst comes to worst, a few ships will land, rather than a large amount with only moderate damage.

Ahhh, good thinking...

And, the fighter, does it have the firepower to cause any serious damage to the squadron?

TIEs are lightly armoured and unshielded. If it's a fighter it can hurt them! Still, just one...

Well, assign only the minimum amount of TIEs to keep the fighter occupied, as it is our last priority, after the trade ships.

In any event, if the Fighter fights back, The Stormies start killing things early, remember?

Would the Deviator Make it for any action?

It might, depends on actions.

Actually, this isn't grounds for Stormtroopers doing anything.

I thought you made it clear that if we get shot at, the Invasion would comence.

The Deviator will continue heading to the Battle, in hopes of bringing it's Turbo-Lasers into play.

If Osokans come up and attack the fleet, yes.

But all this is is 'smugglers destroyed trying to run the blockade'.

That doesn't reflect on anything on the planet.

I must admit, I'm confused. They Can't land in the Starport because of the Stormies, and theres no more Starports that I recall hearing mention of. What the hell do they hope to accomplish besides providing Live-Fire targets...

This is true, it would be pretty stupid of them to land in the starport.

Is there any way of knowing if they have some Hidden base or Facility in which to offload?

Err, well, no.

You could deploy probes but it's a bit late in the day.

Ush, Lyle's going to make his move. Attempt to sneak past the guards and in. Hopefully Arvus will be with him.

Either Rylis's chatting to them or not. I've sent a PM to her.

Ugh. Are the TIEs too crappy to follow them?

No no. They don't like being in atmosphere, but nor do the ships they are chasing. They can follow. The Rebels are buggered so long as there are TIEs on their tail.

Arvus will join Lyle in sneaking in.
