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

I'll move toward the center then.

Wentar will focus his focused guard on the BV-50 and Bodyguard Jovan.

Well... I'm not getting any responses from Kiu or Denzral. I guess we press on without them. Assume that they didn't go with the gang to the generator, I suppose?

Or we use them as dummy's 😈

They're not here to protest being used as meatshields, they can't say no.

Vera and Vlad sprint towards the fighting as Jovan and Wentar hold position.

The BV-50 skims lightly across the southern walkway. Its red snsors glow menacingly, before it rises up and unleashes its gatling guns on Jovan and Wentar!

Being light guns, they get +2 dice, giving it a base pool of 14. Jovan's defences reduce that to 11. It gets a second attack at 9 dice on Wentar. Hundreds of red laser bolts fly out from it! Though you defend yourselves well, and damgae is not heavy.

Xeth, you may remember that it is all a matter of ratios. You count the strengths of both sides in an area and we work out the relative values- evens, or 3:2, 2:1 and so on. A simple d6 roll then decides how the fight goes for that round, but the ratio effects the possible results on the dice. At evens, 1-3 favours the defender whilst 4-6 the attacker. If it is 3:2 in favour of the attacker, then the 3-6 result will favour him, and so on.

Wentar and Jovan should make a move on the BV-50 now! Do you agree Jovan?

Heck, the damn thing is shooting at us, it's only fair we return the hostilities! I'm in the middle of packing, so I hope to post more tonight

In that case, time to move up, tap block and attack this droid for Mr. Reiua.

"So your the BV-50," Wentar says, moving up to attack the menacing droid, spinning his saber as he goes.

Jovan and Wentar move in!

The BV-50 sprays them wuith fire as they approach, this time switching its primary target. It does rather betetr this time, scoring seven damge on Wentar and four on Jovan.

Jovan attacks! He's on three dice, tow of which socre hits... but are reduced to zero by the shield. This thing moves with immesne sideays speed, Jovan, buzzing several feet to one side at almost Jedi speed. Your attack gets caught in its shield and does nothing.

Wentar times a better attack with a Block tap. He is on 7 dice... and rolls three successes... just short! You come within an inch of it, Wentar, before it darts away... ironically, Orthodox Guard would have meant a hit. But I'll return one damage to you, because your Focussed Guard would have protected you better than I gave you last turn.

Jovan senses particular danger.

Vlad will run in and attack the BV-50 at the same time.

No! If Jovan is sensing particular danger, I think means that the tissue disruptor is going to go off. Anyone standing next to it is going to get a nasty hunk of damage.

Wentar and Jovan should pull back (maybe jumping up to where Vera-Kin is, for cover purposes), Vlad should stay put.

(yeah...guys? Learn from the mistake that I made. If someone's senses are going "oh **** sudden danger", don't rush the stupid thing...it hurts. Trust me.)

So we just stay and get shot at?

(You're going to get shot at regardless. But seriously, if someone's senses suddenly go "oh crap danger", move away from the thing, and certainly do not charge it. Like I said, trust me. That tissue disruptor is nasty business and it kicked my ass in our game when I did just that.

But hey, if you want to go ahead and move in and attack...just don't say you weren't warned when you get literally fried.)

(I'd listen to Lana and Vera here. They know what they're talking about. The tissue disruptor is bad news!)

And simple enough, Ush. I suppose I'll be needing the ratings for what I have to throw at the Federation forces.

Aye, I was just thinking about getting out of the way.

Assuming Jovan warns Wentar in time he will jump up and back, regrouping with Vera and Denzral in the Center Upper.

Focused Guard still focused on the BV-50, Bodyguard still covering Jovan and swap out Block.

(Remember to use your Force points to help you when they can! Jovan, you can use Strike whenever you attack it, for one point, and you can use Evade, for one point, to increase your defense. Others... well, any way you can lower the BV-50's guns pool.)

Vera-Kin will be using Coordination, in case it actually starts shooting at us instead of using the tissue disruptor. Jovan should do the same, since he has it.

And she stays put in Center Upper.
