USH'S STAR WARS GAME- CAMPAIGN II EPISODE V (DARK SIDE)- The Prisoner of Datura

In regards to the man with the slingshot, Ush, can Lifting be used to frustrate his shots?

It will work in the way described.

Since Rand is avoiding the fight (or trying to), can he apply his Force Defense to someone else? Or is it limited only to Rand?

Just to Rand. Still, one thing at a time.

Damn. The Jedi are breaking my balls and they're not even on Datura.

Azarl will have Martial Arist in. Just in case. Definitely going to invest in defensive schticks after this.

Here we go then!

Win this fight and, reward or no reward, no-one on green is really going to be willing to take you on- then you can get down to business. Though for some of you, extreme violence IS your business, so this is just part of your day's work.

You may re-schtick (or correct errors) before acting.

Let's hear it!

The one issue with forming a defensive ring is that they get to pick where they attack. You may not target a supermook unless already engaged, though you can leave instructions to attack one if one comes near you.

Ush Xavier said he was going to grab and use a knife?

I'm pretty sure everyone grabbed knives, actually. I know Rianna did. Though she's not using it.

And eesh, some of these guys are nasty. I predict the guy with the slingshot is going to be a pain in the ass.

However, for now, clearing out the knife-wielding mooks would be best, I think. Rianna's setup looks fine (though it appears that her stuff that's not currently swapped in doesn't exist...😛).

And being the extremely violent person she is, Rianna's going to make the first attack on a knifey mook.

Galder is going to get to stabbing against a knifey mook as well. We should take them out first since they distribute higher damage than the unarmed goons.

"Have it your way," Galder says as they start being flooded by the goons of the Green, and the first one to come near him promptly gets knifed in the stomach and pushed to the ground.

-

Also, Xavier, you're a much better fighter without the knife, buddy.

Also, there's something up with the red lady. Why is she hanging back instead of joining everyone else in mobbing with us?

Ok Xavier won't bring out the knife and will instead swap out FB with SF.

He will then attack the first armed mook to head his way.

Consider Martial Artist instead, Xavier- it gives you extra pool. Street Fighting would be good for the supermooks, so up to you.

Rand begins by strangling- from a safe distance- one of the knife opponents going after... hmm... Rianna.

Dak will slash away at a knife-wielding thug.

Rah will stick with his knife and try to take on any knife mooks that get within reach.

Would it be worth the Forcey ones in the group to keep an eye on the sling shot and redirect any projectiles that come our way?

Relle will attack a mook with a knife to start off.

Azarl is not going to settle for the slow strangulation of a meaningless target, just one of many attackers. Instead, he decides to take on Spiky. With one hand outstretched, he clamps it closed and starts to choke Spiky with the Force.

Spend a point on Grip.

Initiative is drawn, and hence goes to you!

Rianna very much kills her first target. Galder knives one full on. Xavier's first touch is a bit light though; just one success.

Rand begins a Grip! One of Rianna's attackers starts to choke and struggle...

Dak's schticks give him an easy kill, as do Rah's. Relle's barrage of dice give her one as well!

Azarl gets four successes on his attack roll, causing the spikey alien to stop at oince and grasp at his throat...

Some non-movers from the Dark Side, I see...

Now for the bad guys.

Spikey does not attack due to choking.

Five attackers on each of those in the outer circle! Those who killed a knife guy get an extra barehanded instead.

The bigger people go to those of you showing spirit with kills! Ears goes for Rianna. He scores just one success, but that is enough for four damage.

Double Axe goes for Galder. Two successes inflicts 5 damage!

Girder dude swings at Rah. He scores just one success... but that is six damage, thanks to the girder's natural 4 damage and his Power Attack! Ow!

Slingshot fires at Relle... but misses.

There is a red blur, and something streaks overhead of all of you.

The red girl then punches Azarl in the face- not a great attack, only for three damage, but instantly breaking the Grip.

Swap out Dodge and Weave for Duck, please! I think the extra point of defense will be more useful than the point of armor...

And Rianna's going to continue thinning out the mooks with knives.

Dak will continue with the killing of the knifey thugs as well.

Xavier will tap SF to get two attacks this turn on two knife guys.

Swap MA in for SF
