Lyle will draw his blasters and open fire.
He'll also patch through to Coll,
"General, I know you're busy, but we need some support. Any chance of directing a speederbike squadron our way?"
Would speeders be just as bad as getting through?
Also, we might consider just closing the doors and sitting tight until the bastards go away - it all depends on how much damage you guys think these vines will do.
Dawn Evades this turn, seems to do a good job of it. Its turret fire damages, though does not destroy, a TIE. Scarlet gets a kill but also some hits.
12 from Cass, 10 from Ulrand. Ulrand misses due to Cass' skill, Cass misses due to the two point difficulty in hitting a TIE. Warming up though.
Three more TIEs have arrived from outside. These ones have come in low, skimming the trees, presumably because they have heard a better report of the situation and came into surprise the torpedo firers. Lacking any such firers, they will head up to attack the Rebels in the air.

Ulrand, you have received more orders from Vader.
Concentrate your fire on torpedo-capable craft
Kyle damages another TIE with turret fire; cannot seem to hammer that kill. Dawn is evading again, becoming rather hard to hit at the expense of making direct attacks.
Ulrand- no clear target, so a Dogfight. Random target is... Dawn. a 15 is a good roll and a definite hit. Can't shake that bastard, Rhys!
Seven attacks each from TIEs on the rest of the Rebels; not much to speak of, some light hits on the Lance.
Cass ends up duelling the lead of the three TIEs attacking him. He rolls a 12, well clear of the... well... two that he normally needs for a hit, as once more he locks onto a TIE for the kill shot.
He is rather surprised when the TIE rotates at the exact moment of firing, seeing his shots pass between its wings.
He is even more surprised when it rolls an 11 in return, enough to damage him with an Outcome of three. Green laser blasts tear into his shields.
The TIE in question has a Pilot socre of 17
Scarlet gets a kill.
Vader finishes his communication with you, Ulrand.
I am on the fighter...
