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

"Yes, General; losses. The Jungle is clearly hostile."

Going in then, Karn?

Seems like it, since I have the best chance of not being seen.

Trying to work out if there's something else I could be doing...

Do we have any engineers who might be able to rig up an EMP to take down the shield? Since there are no droids on Lanzar, I assume very little else will be affected.

That is absolutely not possible. These shields are impenetrable. It needs to be destroyed.

Maybe I should devote my time to that, then. Working out precisely how to destroy it. Time to get thinking.

Military assault is the only practical option you can see.

Oh, okay. Another problem was getting to Drakkon and the senators. I'll get thinking about that, then. 😉

"Then why are their men in the Jungle?"

Aren't there laws against killing Raptors on Lanzar? Or does the Empire not give a damn?

An important personal moment for Janthis, really.

"I will remind you, General, that I am about fifty miles from the city."

You may indeed order them to run, Janthis, but you might just reach your gun... you will have to gamble- certainty on the knife that you are not as good with, or risk on the gun which you are much better with.

It is already pretty much night in the jungle, due to the canopy.

Heh, yeah, animal laws like that are a bit too petty to worry about even with the Senate around. More precisely, though, the law is about hunting them, not killing them. If they come at you it is different.

Mind you, Atar did make the point that if you start destroying large areas of the Jungle (like via a march), which is definitely illegal, even though it would be a petty complaint it would still bugger up the 'training exercise' excuse.

"Immediate area reconaissance," says Lomax.

Getting to Drakkon is easier than getting to the Senators. It's because an agreement has been made to not meet the Senators for a while, is the issue..

There's nothing to stop the Imperials going anywhere, so long as they don't specifically delay the mission.

Rylis and Karn both notice one significant thing. The convoy is leaving the warehouse- but it is noticeably smaller coming out than it was going in.

Karn, getting in close, soon spots the difference- the convoy has split and is leaving the warehouse in multiple directions.

Hmmmmm.

Yeah they're doing something.

I think Karn and Rylis should split and each follow in a different direction...would we be able to do this by foot? It'd be easier and less noticable then following in the speeder...plus there's only one of those and two of us.

You can try to follow on foot if you wish; you might be outpaced.

Janthis- your fingers curl around the gun...

Hmmm... Are there any modes of transportation nearby that Karn or Rylis could "borrow" (speeders, speeder bikes, riding animals)?

(You already have a speeder, Karn, that's what you've been riding in 😉 )

"I want them out of the jungle as soon as possible, if possible," General Coll says. "We shouldn't let our men be killed off so soon in the day."
