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

It's a hole barely enough for a man to get in, I don't think we'd be able to stick a STAPS laser, let alone to pilot the lasers and give it room to aim.

The laser component should be small enough to fit through the whole.

There are a fair few of us who can use guns, Wentar, Vera, Lance and Jovan excluded, so we should get multiple lasers out.

Xeth is ecstatic when his fellow Renegades get in touch with him, his comlink crackling their message with the disturbance of the ice. His greeting and thanks are brief and will be saved for later, as the situation at hand is far more urgent.

When suddenly the work to lift the ice away is halted, Xeth worries.

"What's going on up there?" Xeth asks into the comlink, presumably just as the starfighter starts its strafing run.

I want to hear what Ush says about the STAP suggestion. Good thinking, Kiu!

"Starfighter, coming our way," Wentar replies through the comlink. "It, and the torpedoes it's packing, don't look very friendly."

problem with bombard and throw, Denz, as far as I see it, is that you'll use your force points in a quick tempo. Plus reflect would be a bad idea since they explode on impact.
I would say: we make a run for it to the ships, get the R-units to fire them up, make a Qui-Gon Jinn jump on board, with the R's timing when to drop the shields and let the best pilots get a crack at the fighter?
One problem I see: the lack of cover... 😖

This cannot be won by the Force. You need your ships! Or these STAP guns.

I think our ships are too far away. By the time we get to them that starfighter would probably have annihilated it's target and cleared off.

Your all right from a certain point of view, so it should be said... Denz flings a chuk of ice (using the Force obviously) at the fighter, then hopefully someonre else will slice it in pieces with a sabre throw as it avoids the ice chunk.

If that starfighter has shields a saber throw will be insanely useless.

Shields aren't all that... but you are right... so I'm stuck with ideas... running for the ships will take time and getting my astromech to bring ione to us puts a valuable asset in great danger. Eg. ship/droid/fighter.

Hm, is it only STAPs in the crates or does one of the crates have convenient plot device anti air missile launcher? =P

Unfortunately it seems the other part of the STAPs that is not working is the lasers.

Oh... That's, that's sorta bad... Do we have time to open up a person sized gap before the starfighter reaches firing range?

Yup!

Then that should be first on the list, get everyone out of that hole. As for the starfighter, well we don't have enough firepower to take it down. So what about running? We split into maybe 3 or 4 groups, each group with a pilot, one group not being chased heads for the ships the rest try stay alive until one of the pilots flies in to save the day.
That's all I can think of... What say the others?

The logical breakdown of the issue makes perfect sense.

But you don't think you'll make it on foot.

Hm, while us up top clear as fast as we can those below can look into getting a STAP flying. One of those crates has to have the repulsorlifts needed... right?

Ahhh!

Yes, that might be an idea! What the Cult was stealing were parts needed for repulsorlifts...

Awesome! We just have to find those parts now... guess that's up to the trapped people.
So once we get a STAP, or more if possible, up and running we get it out of the hole and someone flies it to the ships. Though we need a way to stop the starfighter following the STAP...

Oh, it will follow the STAP for sure. Or STAPs lural, of course.

But you are a heck of a lot more likely to get back to them on STAP than on foot!
