Well I shall assume Vera holds.
The logn range fire is sporadic at firs,t as the droids close. The tanks are hanging back for now...

Neat, no Selenian casualties just yet.
Ush, the Droidekas read as Supermooks, yes? So we get bonus dice from attacking them with our lightsabers? I'm also curious if Cleave can be used to land two attacks on a Supermook. I don't think so just because how it is worded, but I thought I would check.
I think if we get Initiative, Vera-Kin will race forward with Dash and attack a Droideka, tapping Orthodox Guard for protection. Swap with Balanced Guard.
If THEY get Initiative, Vera-Kin will just move forward, tapping Orthodox Guard, and attack a Droideka. Swap with Balanced Guard.
Droidekas are supermooks, yes. You do get the bonus dice when attacking them. Cleave only gives you a second attack, however, if you rolled enough to destroy two targets in one roll (it is all or nothing). The chances of you rolling enough to destroy two droidekas at once are... low enough to be ignored.
And an initiative-based order! Nifty.
Initiative is yours. This leaves Vera taking an extremely risky move, as she Dashes forwards to engage a Droideka. She inflicts fully 14 damage on her target and is defensively covered by her tap. But a lot of bad guys stay in place to engage her...
I am not getting precise firing roders from Denz; he fires at a standard droid.
The field guns destroy a droideka!

Up top, despite good flying, things don't look so good...

Vera-Kin cuts through a piece of the Droideka, then turns as it rapidly deploys itself to handle the Jedi that damaged it. However, she also notices several of the battle droids halt their advance on the Selenian lines and turn their blasters on her.
Perfect, she thinks. I will distract them from the Selenian lines...
Vera-Kin decides to launch herself at a pair of Super Battle Droids, cleaving through their midsections in a single twirling blow, before tucking and rolling amidst the heated lasers coming her way.
(tap Balanced Guard, tap Cleave, swap out Cleave)
Also, Denzral, you should make an initiative-based instruction.
If we get initiative, you move forward and attack a Super Battle Droid while tapping Orthodox Guard and Riposte to draw in some attackers and cut them down.
If they get initiative, attack a Super Battle Droid when it reaches you and tap Riposte, staying amongst the Selenians.
Either way, choose a swap to make. Gunslinger needs to go! 😛
Make sense?
