Current positions!
Just to remind you there ate Hotspots B, C, D and E to worry about!
-
Jelena- the droids emerging (now ten of them in sight) are shooting at anything that moves; you see a Telanian shot out of the air and plummet down.
"We must do something, Master!" says Essalin.

'Find where he went' says one of the droids at Hotspot A
'Roger Roger'
They are moving towards where Xeth was. Seems they are deploying a little slower than you may have feared- they emerge every other turn.
Xeth is free to move away... and Vera is all ready to attack! You can jump down and egt a surprise attack for a turn where no-one will return fire, Vera, though note more will come next turn.

CHAOS AT THE REPOSITORY, Start of Turn 2
Droid Hotspot A
Xeth (HW6) 1/44 [BGu PS CH] [CC ES CQ] (2F) (Moving away)
Vera (LS10) 1/0 [BGu CL RF] [BL OGu CL] (2F)
Droids x5 (C6)

Whenever I bring a new person into a fight, let me know what your starting schtick choices are if need be.
Vera-Kin gets into position to launch her ambush on the droids. When she notices Xeth fleeing the area, she nods in approval; he has another battle to fight, if his opponent can be found.
She comes in low and unexpectedly slashes through the legs of a pair of battle droids as they emerge from the vault. She then uses the Force to make them fall harder than they would, smashing them against the ground.
(OGu CL RF, standard attack on the droids)
Having misunderstood his student, Gallagher mentally kicks himself and gives D'an more credit than he had been.
"We need to figure out what her target is, or was," Gallagher says. "She won't be near any of the vaults the droids are deploying from, which can narrow things down..."
What vault is Gallagher by? I'm surprised it took him so long to get to his anomaly...
Well those of you who stayed behind would have been able to do that. But unfortunately Roan is wasting time fixing the droid instead of trying to find Katai which is, again, precisely what she wanted.
The thing about saying that you must never fall for something again is that you do actually have to re-think your general approach to things, else you will keep doing the same things over again. It should be pretty clear by now that Katai knows you are all here so you should be thinking "What is she trying to get us to do, and so what can I do in contrast?"
You are committed to stopping the droids though- that's being the good guys for you.
Xeth- droid control units are many things but, at this point in time, small and handily portable is not one of them.
Indeed, judging by what they said when they emerged, they are not being controlled at all; the are following a preset programme.
(That still needs a control unit though- just a preset one)
