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

I'm crossing my fingers for you guys. If you can take out these last two tanks and draw enemy fire away from your allies, that last field gun (if it survives) and the troops may be able to pull this off...

Is there anything else the Marshall wishes to discuss at the moment?

How are the ships looking at the end of this period?

How awesome would it be if I smashed a tank with my hands 😱
Unfortunately, since I'm not The Hulk, Vlad's going to go ahead and tap Dodge and Weave and retreat to the trenches

That would make our lives easier, wouldn't it? 😂

Also, how would one go about using the Force to make shots from the tanks miss, if possible?

Question for Vlad. Next round, do you want to go up with Xeth as his turret gunner in the Nexu? Or rest up?

Vera-Kin, if you're not looking too bruised by the end of this, may want you to go in next fight. Otherwise, you can rest up or chat with the Marshall.

Denzral and Kiu will be going in next sequence, with Jovan and Wentar. Denz, if you want, you can hop in your starfighter and help Xeth out in the air. Could be useful and clean up the vultures quickly. Otherwise, you're in the foot battle with the other three on the ground.

Sean appears to have died. Shucks.

Though I have to say that due to a very sucky exam schedual I doubt I'll be on much in the first two weeks of july... I'll try but no promise.

btw, I've only followed with one eye so did Sean die in the game or you mean he isn't online anymore?

Oh, hah, no, not literally dead. Spike is in the same boat as you and is busy with exams, last I heard. And as long as we don't lose you completely in mid-fight, I'm happy.

Denz will be going in on foot. I will have my schticks Orthodox Guard, and Riposte in, while dormant as I wish to tap gunslinger first as I come into the battle, and shoot as many droids as possible then swap in Reflection at the end of my turn and use my saber for the rest of the phase. That okay. Or does someone have a better, or pilot related suggestion?

I'd wait to see what the situation is when Denzral steps into the fight to really mesh out what the plan is. It always depends on what the droids are doing and what the troops are doing and what everyone else is doing. Good to see you're getting the hang of it, though!

As for piloting, we'd just be shooting up vultures. It'd take heat off of Xeth, we'd clear them out faster and then divebomb the droids.

I am not entirely sure what is meant by making the tanks miss. Remember their shots are energy, not solid; your defences work just fine against them (save that Heavy Weapons do some damage on a near miss as well) but you cannot actually interfere with their operation.

Vlad's Didge and Weave keeps him safe this turn... but he doesn't make it back to the Trenches, that took a Dash-leap you may remember. As it is, he pushes out ast the droids and gets amongst the Selenians but he doesn;t get into cover yet.

Vera makes her Bombard... but I am afraid I count armour against that and it;s not a great roll. The tank is intact. The field gun then destroys it... but the last tank destroys the field gun.

And... this seems to leave Vera surrounded by the droids? They take their chance to unload into her. This blows away Vera's remaining protection and gives her twelve damage on top of that.#

Though once more, Vlad and Vera have distracted the droids- more than half of them this time- and the Selenians have good rolls this turn.

Xeth- actually the Marshall will report that there is no sign of this BV-50. He wonders if you have nay idea where Cannes will usr it next?

Have not actually made the rolls for the ships yet.

Vlad should get into the trench and start shooting. Swap in Carnival of Carnage.

Vera-Kin, I hope you have something in mind?

-

Xeth is unsure where the BV50 might be deployed next. With the Federation trying to weaken the planetary shield, they might use it to disable another shield generator.

Agreed on the suggested action for Vlad. That'll bring Eye of the Storm into use and give him cover.

Can Vera-Kin bring Orthodox Guard back in and tap it within this turn? If so, she will bring it in and tap it while attacking two battle droids, so that she can tap Cleave and gain protection points.

If she cannot do that in one turn, she will make use of Defensive Leap, to keep the battle droids occupied and raise her defenses.

I want to definitely come in next turn either into the fight or as the turret pilot, whatever seems more useful.

Switch out Balanced Guard for Carnival of Carnage..

Vlad will run past the Selenians toward the trenches, and draw out his gun.

Ush, how effective is gun fire against the AAT's? Would four shots be able to destroy the damaged one?

I concur with Zeth.

The droids fire first! VLad is no longer a priority target but he does take some fire I am afraiod.

Vlad dives for cover, which I am afraid it rules him out from shooting this turn. (And even with Eagle Eye, destroying a tank with a hand weapon is extremely difficult; in general, forget it.)

However, Vera can indeed bring in and tap Orthodox Guard; though she does actually still take a hit.

A tank fires and destroys an artillery piece! And now the droids are amongst the Selenians things are harder.

But Vera gets a double kill and another eight points of protection as she flips aroundf the Droid lines in her disruptive fashion...

Switch in Dodge and Weave with Charge.
Vlad's going to fire at two droids, one shot at each.
Vera, you should go for the AAT.

Precisely. Be wary, though, Vlad; the Selenians are getting depleted and you will be the primary target, soon.

Vera-Kin, disrupting the flow of battle with her attack, will go after the tank!

Swap out Cleave.

Vlad opens fire! Still, these things do not always go perfectly, and he only downs the one droid.

Vera lands four successes on the tank, not QUITE enough... it blows another artillery piece! And Vera gets her entire protection shot away in one turn.

Vlad, now uinder fire, takes a hit even through his cover but the Selenians come out relatively well...

After plunging her lightsaber into the tank's engine, she notices that it is still not quite finished. Putting her focus on the tank after deflecting shots from the droids, she puts in one last swipe to finish it off.

(This is going to hurt. Could Vlad tap Carnival of Carnage on droids that are attacking Vera-Kin to lessen how many attack her? Or can he not specify?)
