Wentar and Fas'hohk both have ships... but Fas'hohk has no way of flying his. Wentar is the best pilot of the Renegades, actually, with Kiu Dun and Xeth not far behind.
yo ush, quick question, why is it that fas hokh cant in these guys terms, "fly a ship"?

There is a vast rumbling all around you.

You could go check with him, Lance!
Kiu takes a deep breath and balls up his fists, ready to lunge at Cannes. Kiu comes to his senses and loosens, but is still poised to take the opportunity if it arises.
"Do not believe for a moment we will die today. I will find you, and I will make you answer for your crimes".
(I think he means how we address Denzral, Jedireaper. Mando'ade, you have no points in the Piloting skill. You can fly your ship from place to place, but probably not do anything that requires skill in piloting. If all else fails, Vlad could pilot it for you! If it is a smaller ship, then you could ride with Wentar and use the turrets while Vlad starfights. Also, Denzral has his Jedi starfighter- likely an early prototype, they weren't made for a few more years- but that is a one-man ship. Just think about how you want to travel guys. It might actually be important as to who is piloting when starfighting occurs... Ush has hinted at that.)
(And welcome back, Kiu.)
While Lance waits for R4-K8 to triangulate the signal, "How many of our lot have got ships? I need to know the size of the ships and how well equipped they are in case we find ourselves in a tight spot. We're also need to know who is going with who. We need our best pilots flying, regardless if it's their ship or not. Those with the best skills at weaponry, you'll have to be at the turrets. Then again, we don't even know if we're going to have to leave this area, but it's best to be prepared."
Curse you employment! Wentar is of course gonna be flying The Free Flier, a small freighter with room for anyone who doesn't have a ship or just wants to fly with, apparently, the best pilot of the Renegades. =P
Is Wentar's ally with him? Come to think of it are Ally's always with you or do they just pop in to say hey every now and then?

You have to bring your Ally into play. And as Ush will say, using your Ally will make them unavailable in the near future.
"The future belongs to us, Jedi, not you!" says Cannes. "Confirm all insturctions!" he yells over the noise, and a bunch of numbers appear on the screens before him, which he takes in in a few moments, and the screens go dark.
Bu not before Xeth and Kiu, with their Observation skills, see the target hyperspace co-ordinates on one of the monitors...
Cannes and his aide step on a small lift that is set into one of the walls, which then starts to life them upwards out of your sight. The BV-50 hovers around just a little longer, as if staring at you, before floating up to join them.
Click-click
Then the walls recede upwards as well, taking the computer banks with them, and you are exposed to the elements, wtih just the metal underside of a spaceship above you...

The source of the signal is very difficult to find because it is not a communications transmission. Your drois report it is a sort of pulse wave being sent over the navigational frequencies that they use to help plan hyperpsace jumps- more a disruption to it, actually, but being done in a regular pattern that lays out a Star Wars version of Morse Code. The signal is directed at this planet and is only being picked up because you asked them to make that navigational overview.
And indeed, Fas, you don't actually have the Pilot skill- but we can blow your xp you got from the prequel story on getting Pilot at 1, ans I am fairly sure you got enough to do that. Phew!
ok, my ships setup is quite opposite of most ships. the droid is the pilot and navigator while fas is the technician. it has 2 turrets on either side that can be controlled by fas or the droid. the turrets are swiveling. also, i'm wondering why i was never given the choice to pick the ability to fly.
A droid will never fly a ship as well as a proper pilot.
And because Freelancers are not natural pilots; they normally bum around the Galaxy on transports.
The earlier mentioned idea on triangulation is the best way to locate the signal- means heading into space and tracking it from different points, though.
