Tossing your pistol down and Drawing your lightsaber in one rapid motion, you take a running leap and jump up atop one of the computer banks. As you bounce off of it and to the next computer over, you sweep the lightsaber downwards and catch a Grotos in the neck. Then, hopping down from the next bank, you drag your lightsaber down across another Grotos and then spin to attack the Commander, but your roll is poor and you fail to hit him as he falls back.
The action, because you were four frames away, costs you four frames to get there. Definitely worth it, though.
Your men score three kills. They do not cover you; they kill the Grotos attacking them, leaving you with five shooters.

Force pool refresh! The Commander and five Grotos pick out as a target.
Before the Commander can shoot you at point blank, you Leap backwards behind another computer bank for cover. He rolls a 2... no cigar. The bank also protects you from the Grotos' blasterfire.
Two more of Sparnik's men are dead.

The Commander and his men are ahead of you on frames, and so attack again. Though only four Grotos this time.
Cover and the dodge keeps you from getting hit, since the commander rolls an 8. But the four Grotos blast through the computer bank and you take 15 damage from the sparks and debris. Your cover is blown away again.
Sparnik's men take down two Grotos, but three are killed in return.

Con has initiative.
Con jumps over the debris of his cover and lashes out at two of the commander's associates before taking the commander himself. 6 and 11 are solid blows that cut down the Grotos that come rushing to the commander's aid. A 9, with the -5 penalty in mind for the commander being target number three, still manages to connect. You make a glancing blow off of the commander's shoulder, sparks flying from his armor as your lightsaber scrapes it. 25 damage!
The last militiamen shoot up three more Grotos, leaving only three left...

Defending time. What'll it be?
This commander is shooting ridiculously well. Despite blurring to one side with superhuman reflexes, you feel the laser bolt burn across your shoulder. 8 damage takes you to 63, which has a -1 penalty attached to it for all your actions.
"Eye for an eye, Jedi!" the commander shouts.
The Grotos shoot down one of the men. Two left against three.

The commander is going to fire again, being a frame ahead of you.
14... miss! You blur back the other direction and deflect the shot into the ceiling.
The militiamen and Grotos kill each other in one last volley... but one Grotos is left standing.
