Sorry, was absolutely exhausted when I posted last night, brain was on the fritz. Ignore those last posts.I was just assuming that the landing craft was already approaching the planet, getting ready for when the shield drops. Pretty much wondering, since it seems an invasion is imminent, why the Aluran's don't use their defense network to take out the landing craft now.
Kiu follows suit and draws his lightsaber, ready to repay the BV-50 for last time.
Yes indeed, the reason is that the landing craft are still standing away from the world and not making a landing, hence they are nowhere near in range.
Jovan looks up, but sees nothing in particular.
The BV-50s guns unfurl; short-barrelled gatling-style weapons that those who have fought it before can tell you fire at an incredible rate.
All of you are standing about twenty feet away from it, sabres ready...
Nah, I'll let you know when that is.
The BV-50 fires... but not at you. Whiriling around, its guns fire in three directions, at the three remainign giant cables- which, now you look at them, it had actually already mostly severed exceot for one remaining conenction on each. It had waited for you to get close before finishing the job.
Simultaneously, the other three connections fail, causing, at first, a massive rise of sparks as the cables collapse...
