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

And what if I just enter one of the AT-ST's and order the people around? Maybe I can analyze the situation and give the AT-ST's direct orders depending on the situation?

Coll's directions should be sufficient enough.

Tactical situation as we start...

-----

ARTILLERY ASSAULT

Black Dawn: 8

Tip of the Lance: 5

RFT: 0

Artillery Unit A: 0

AT-ST units x6: 0

Artillery Unit C: 0

AT-ST units x6: 0

Artillery Unit C: 0

AT-ST units x6: 0

-----

Torpedoes are not designed to hit loose groups of artillery so they have an effective armour rating of six. If they take twenty points of damage the unit is lost.

Likewise we don't necessarily mean individual AT-STs either, so they have an armour rating of four, but they can only take ten damage from hardware. Against blaster fire they can take twenty.

Can artillery fire at ships?

Lord no.

Rylis, Arvus if they are going to be fully occupied with attacking AT-ST`s and artillery, wouldn`t you be able to fire at them and hide back into the jungle? Hit and run tactics. They would have to use one of their ships to defend from you then, I think.

Well they've landed now. If they took off again the Rebels would simply see them coming.

Talking of which- you two are in the jungle. Oops. What's the plan?

Though point remains that if Rebels wanted to do something about them they would have to make their assault on artillery much less effective.... But I understand. After all Commisar considers capturing Drakkon more important than how much losses we have during the assault on the city- unless we actually lose, but he refuses to believe that this is possible.

Arvus intends to remain inside his ship.

Lyle's waiting for orders.

"In your professional opinion," he asks Rylis, "What are the chances of these two ships succeeding in driving off those rebel craft?"

What orders?!

Just giving you a chance to re-order us back into the air.

(Also, I needed to post something just so that I keep in touch with the game)

"Very, very low," Arvus butts in over the comm system.

Well, Commisar gave an order to defend the artillery. What he is supposed to do, plead with you? I assume that Lyle contacts him then.

"'Lyle? If possible, try to distract the Rebels, they have engaged our ground forces and are likely to destroy Coll`s precious artillery. But your main mission remains the same- ensure that we capture Drakkon, or those Rebel Terrorists if you encounter them. Are you sure that Rylis and Arvus can be trusted by the way? Report anything suspicious later."

"Very low. They not only outnumber us, but just look at them. It's pretty obvious that they're all much better pilots than Arvus and myself. Losing my ship isn't on my plan of things to do today." Rylis replies.

And my plan stays the same as it was - stay in the ships for now.

Arvus rolls his eyes at the Commissar's transmission, muttering "Suspicions," under his breath.

"Rebels are formidable opponents," Arvus concedes, kicking back in his seat, his bowcaster on his lap. "You never know when they're going to decide when they want to stop being amateurs. It's usually when explosions are needed."

All the more fool them, Arvus- they could make a fortune on the open market. The Alliance pays peanuts, if at all.

Of course. It's all about doing the right thing and being moral, rather than sitting pretty on a pile of money.

I prefer the money.

Anything happening outside the ship? Any creepy-crawlies trying to eat the Needle?

Though a little bit of fear is also a good motivation, right? 😈

Ush, I trust those guys only because Emperor gave them to my service? And I can understand greedy people. I am not sure if I understand those Rebel fanatics.

The pay is too good for Arvus to turn on you. Take away his paychecks and he might think twice. Put him in a suicidal position and he will definitely rethink the deal.
