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

"So we just need to get to this shuttle!"

EDIT- Rex

"Of course, of course," Coll says. "I was too young to remember the Clone Wars very clearly, myself. I'm surprised that you yourself are still alive, what with the clone aging acceleration."

"Sir as a bonus when I was prmoted shortly after the clone wars ended my age accleration was turned off. Only a few ere given this most of the people I called bothers have long since passed away due to the aging process."

(Since we are on the topic, this is something that has always confused me. What is the point of raising such an effective Army, then insuring it would no longer be effective so quickly due to aging? Seems like a waste to me.)

Presumably they had a very fast replacement schedule. But yes, it is hardly a perfect process. By this point in time, though, it's not just clones.

The strafing shuttle is trying to clear the walkway, but Osokans go for cover and are not easy to kkill; the results are mixed, and they cannot fire too close to you for fear of harming you.

Shuttles are now landing in the general area, disgorging troops. They are trying to secure the area for a fast pick-up.

One main shuttle is coming down to take you off; that's your only hope now.

Trebeis- sensors are registering a power spike.

The Lanzar City shield is being activated to maximum strength.

Trebeis, Ush, wasn`t the plan to help weaken the shield with Star Destroyer fire? But I think that we may wait with this until this operation ends.....

Commisar will try to position himself as close to that shuttle as possible, expecting the others to do the same. It means that we have to abandom our cover? Though I assume Travis keeps very close..... it would be a bit of a waste if he dies. Commisar continues to desperately return fire at Osokan gunners, a bit frustrated that it is so difficult to kill any of them. It would be the most satysfying to just blow them from orbit.....

The bombardment plan needed a long period of time.

Yes. Since we decided to go with the Invasion, the idea was was essentially scrapped.

Ush, does that not mean that the Commissar is trapped within the Sheild? Or can ships pass through from the Inside?

Yes they age twice as fast but then again that means that for ten years you have an effective fighting force. Most wars esepcially modern ones don't last nearly that long especially with modern weapons.)

Hey, but it will still take many hours for Coll`s army to reach Lanzar City, right? Why not bombard the shield in meantime? It would make the job easier for ground troops.

Nidar thought it would take two days.

One of the points of the operation, Trebeis, was that it was using your best pilots who could take atmospheric vehicles through the shield. The general use of shuttles, or ANY use of space-borne craft, is out of the question now.

Oh, and could I send my Aide a quick message to start preparing the proper announcements, legal stuff etc.? Though at this point we no longer race with time regarding the political situation? Then getting alive from this mess definately remains the only priority.

Okay, I will try my logic last time.

I think that not such a long time has passed since Army started its march, and they were supposed to march for 12 hours. Cannot bombarding the shield for such amount of time, while not being enough to destroy the shield, make it easier to destroy for Coll`s forces? I thought that time was an issue.

I think you should be more concerned with your current situation, really. I'll worry about blowing up the shield.

"Ah, that is quite nifty," Coll says. "So that makes you...oh...about mid-40's, I judge? Older than me, at any rate..."

But my situation is getting better, right Ush..... How hard it would seem to get to the main shuttle? The main problem will be stopping Osokans from doing the same, right? Commisar keeps sticking close to Travis and Lyle of course, to increase his chance of survival.

It seems that I can expect Travis to sacrifice his life for mine if he has to?

Ok, first of all, the bombardment is irrelevant to the army. They have nothing that would even scratch the shield with a year's firing. Their target is purely the generator. Only the naval situation could have overwhelmed the shield the 'old-fashioned' way, and it's a bit late for that.

-

Well, getting through to the main escape shuttle boils down to this. All other circumstances cancelling themselves out... both the Commissar and Lyle have an Osokan to bypass. And when I say bypass, I mean kill or be killed.

Commisar throws himself sideways, trying to avoid the blows from his opponent, shooting the pig in the face. While he never enjoyed fighting, unlike some other members of his family, he certainly should be good enough to kill this savage.

Is my opponent melee or gunner?

"Let me think sirm," Janthis then ponders adding up the years, "Yes sir according to the scientist my biology is that of a 40 year old sir. If you don't mind me asking sir how old are you?"

Lyle has explosives.

It's hard for an Osokan to skewer our Commissar if it's been Vaporised, No?
