USH'S STAR WARS GAME- CAMPAIGN II EPISODE IV (RENEGADES)- Battlefield

Since they are all bloodthirsty killers who will eradicate all non-believers in their technological religion, as ordered by the Dark Thrael... which is just the BV50 being toted by Cirus Cannes as a deity. As far as Vera-Kin is concerned, they are all due some very painful justice for what they are committing here.

Since Sean has been nominated as the representative to the Command Center, Vera-Kin will concentrate on patching up Vlad using the medical knowledge she has accrued in her century-long life and her soothing powers of the Force.

Also, Xeth, there must be something you can do with that...

Indeed there is. In fact, considering the previous posts from Denz and Xeth I am surprised it's not been done.

Does that involve contacting the Command Center to report the bombardment and find out what they know about it?

They've most likely noticed it by now but they are not in a position to find out anything about it.

I still don't have a plan of action from those who got to the ground action so far? I think soon I will simply advance time so others get a look in.

But Xeth is. Can he use R4 to analyze what is going on?

A-ha!

In fact it's just a Fix-It roll to have done that yourself but what's an Astromech droid for if not to get this sort of thing done for you, eh?

R4 bleeps a lot and your computer brings up a translation. It's an ion bombardment. It's trying to de-stablilise the shield. Planetary shields are generally too stable to be affected by ions but this entire area is already unstable as the local generator was destroyed...

Xeth will inform Command about what the Federation vessels are doing, warning that they may be preparing another orbital bombardment once the shield has weakened or that they might try to land more troops.

Can Xeth see anything else?

Only the fighter swarm coming for you.

Okay, time to leave, then. Xeth is going to outrun the fighters and try to get closer to the ground so that he can lend some assistance in the ground battle.

I think those hailfires need to go down ASAP. Wentar wants to know how many there are, where they are located and what's protecting them.

Ok, Xeth's getting clear, which now synchs him up with the others.

Sean- you have arrived at the Command Centre, where the various Selenian leaders are stood around the Strategy Computer Table, which is monitoring various parts of the campaign. They ackknowledge your arrival; did you have any requests or ideas?

Wentar- not good news; the Hailfires are at the Federation side of the Valley. You'd have to fight through the whole army to get to them. They are also heavily covered by fighters, one of the few compensations of which is that the fighters aren't leaving the Hailfires so the skies over the actual battleground itself are not as full as they could be, giving the Selenian air speeders a chance.

Vlad is now healed down to 21.

Denz and Kiu are in their last turn of resting before they get going.

Hmmm, no way of sneaking towards them... Course then who ever did it would have a full army on them not long after. Would Wentar borrowing a Selenian heavy skimmer to use against the Federation tanks be useful at all?

It's a valley, there is no flank to sneak around.

You could take a skimmer into the ight is you so wished, yes.

I'll wait and see what the others have to say about the Skimmer borrowing before locking myself into it.

Well, is it like the Fed tanks? Pilot to operate, Heavy Weapons to use the guns? Otherwise you wouldn't be able to do much with it. But if you can just make Pilot rolls to attack, then it'd be very handy against the tanks having a skilled pilot behind the controls.

Xeth is probably going to engage the vulture droids overhead so that he can even the odds and then sweep in for some attacks on the ground.

The speeder guns are not as hardcore as the tank iones and so can be fired with Pilot.

Overhead where, Xeth?

Then go for it, Wentar.

Over the valley, where the Selenian airspeeders have more chance of succeeding. If they can take out the vulture droids there, we can begin making strafing runs on the valley to clear the droid army away so that the hailfires can be attacked.

Indeed! Wentar will ask if he can borrow a heavy skimmer and take the fight to the tanks.

Ok! So, Wentar is going in on a speeder, Xeth is in the air.

What decisions from Vera and Vlad and co?
