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

The amount of men would possibly buffer the hit of the skiffs and stop them, if I get them out of the way then they have a clear path to the Artillery. I rather not do that. Their just stormtroopers and I'll refill them after I exterminate these rebels 😛

Good thinking Jaiden, remember about our doctrine that heavy equipment is much more important than manpower.

Commanders- pleasse be aware that all your equipment is deployed and in use, the effects are simply generic.

(and to answer your question- certainly now the skiffs have slowed you can try and board one)

Janthis opens fire on one of the skiff pilots! 13 is not a kill but certainly puts the pilot off his stride!

Now the masses act. And the skiffs go for the 'bludegon straight through' approach. All five of them do not breka their pace, though the one Janthis shot at does not do well.

This is now a bit of a mess; two more skiffs are downed, a load of troopers are crushed (others being shot first)... but the skiffs are bogged down in the mass.

Jaiden finds himself under fire from both rebels! He dodges Scarlet's shot with her second pistol, but Kyle lands a hit. He's armoured, of course. His dodging also rules out his action for now.

And now Rhys and some of the Osokans have reached the trooper lines!

--

The battle at the wall rages on.

Kyle blasts away at a dodging Rylis! One miss and one hit, though although Kyle's Eagle Eye is mitigating Rylis' armour that light pistol doesn't quite have the blast away power he wants against her.

Rylis fires back and rolls a 10 exactly! Kyle is not dodging and that is a dead-on hit.

Since the last 3 skiffs are slowed down, I'll board one and release a flame from my flamer on all the passengers of that skiff.

Janthis will tell his troops to split into two groups of 33 and have each one of them board one of the Osokan Skiffs. Janthis will shoot at the pilot of the last Skiff.

And I'll have my groups board the ones seperate of the one Jaiden is attacking but Janthis will still shoot the pilot of the one Jaiden is attacking.

Your troops just got rammed by those skiffs. The formation is completely disorganised and detailed insturcitons are impossible- this is the chaos of battle now.

So then can I get them reorganized on me how many turns will that take?

Janthis, just keep on shooting the pilot you shot last turn, so you can render that skiff out of control, while our troopers take down another skiff, and I flame the one near me. We need to take out all the skiffs this turn, and then you can hop on the skiff I'm "boarding" right now, and pilot while I use the skiff gun.

Hehe.

Will repeat my same move as last time - firing at Kyle, and only dodging if he attacks back.

Arvus notices that the stormtroopers at the midway point on the wall seem to be handling the battle fine without him, and so decides to choose a target atop the wall. With Rylis concentrating on Kyle, he will fire a shot at Eerin.

Eerin is in the melee atop the wall and not a legal target. Nor can you really hit Kyle.

Also please make up a frame deficit when you move or you'll simply lose them.

Frame deficit?

If you didn't manage to post for earlier updates I leave your frames as they were, but you need to make them up when you post next. Really a thing for Lyle and Arvus.

Hmph.

Arvus will snap another attack on an Osokan, reload, then snap another attack on an Osokan and reload. Both targets will be Osokans at the middle of the wall.

Janthis will fire on the Pilot he attacked earlier. He will then make his way over to Jaiden and tell his troops to form up on him.

Are you going to post the updates in the Imperial Thread, Ush?

Oops! Silly me.

Jaiden moves to board a skiff, under fire from Rhys. Rhys' light gun rolls well and he gets two hits in. Janthis is blasting away at a pilot of a skiff, though they are not moving fast enough to cause a crash that way now.

A skiff becomes overturned in the melee! The other two are disengaging.

At the wall, Eerin is still hacking away at stormtroopers.

Kyle- no cover I am afraid.

Kyle keeps firing at Ryis, this time landing two hits for a total of eleven damage. This puts the two of them equal on frames so now both fire. Kyle certainly gets the better of this round and his Gunslinger schtick is giving him the edge in the battle as a whole; he dodges Rylis' shot.

Arvus- snapping a bowcaster is still exceedingly inefficient. Still, you get a kill.

(Imperials in both fights- you won't drop an Osokan in one attack. Not even a lightsabre does that)

The Osokans halfway up the wall are dwindling; reinforcements at the top will come faster soon.

Janthis will fire at the Pilot of the last Skiff and have any of his men around him blast at the skiff.

Wow, you would think that the rebel players are smarter than this... Shooting commanders that are hard to hit instead of clearing way for the artillery. Well, victory is approaching! My tactic is to take down as many osokans before I'm heavy wounded, and then I will retreat.

I will use my flamer on all the osokans on the skiff, and I will also signal Janthis to the skiff.
