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

"Forward, comrades, let's put the bridge into place and secure the way our freedom!" Commands Gallador, ordering the thugs to move tightly under the protection of shields.

I think Gallador should coordinate our minions, as he is pretty much useless in this fight.

And he has good leadership, does that help?

Relle snaps a shot back at the archer who hit and is targeting our hurt thug to make sure he stays up.

Galder keeps moving up, using Coordination to stay evasive.

Rianna continues the mad charge onwards.

Dak keeps charging forward with his shield.

Rand continues to send the block forward with the Force.

Now that our first wave is moving forward and halfway to the first part of the approach, Rand will use his Leadership abilities to usher the bridge-carrying thugs to start moving.

Feel better, Ush.

Azarl keeps Lifting the block into place as well. Is this costing us a Force point each?

Xavier keeps moving forward with Coordination active.

No- the good observation roll found you a piece you could move with just a roll.

Initiative stays with you. That bailed out the Jedi; it's a bit trivial for you. There's a pointless refresh also.

No kill for Relle this turn.

Ok, so team Bridge advances, but judging from Gallador's post not all of you have considered that the bridge carriers aren't carrying shields, obviously.

The archers fire as before- to no great effect.

They've noticed the bridge moving now though.

Could Con use push or lift also to reflect arrows away from the bridge carries (and himself)?

Additionally, we probably have to be smart about what to do with the door block, if we get it there to early couldn't they just push it out of the way or stop it somehow?

Also how many of us does it actually need to move the thing?

Not whilst Lifting.

Damn, that's what I thought.

[from last edit]Additionally, we probably have to be smart about what to do with the door block, if we get it there to early couldn't they just push it out of the way or stop it somehow?

Do we need everyone moving the block to actually be working on that, or could one of them possibly get the bridge placed quicker?

Also could the floating door block be used to knock down some of the defenders? 😛

It moves more slowly without all of them.

And yes, they are not so stupid as to not... try and move the block.

It's moving way too slowly to be any sort of weapon.

Awww, okay. Just had an amusing mental picture of just...flinging it through the defenders and into place.

Okay, well Con will let Azarl and Rand move the block alone for now as it seems ahead of most of our people anyways and use his lift to protect the bridge carriers. Still using co-ordination too though.

We should try to engage the enemies in fight or even clear them before getting the block in (though obviously before it closes)....when does it close btw?

Rah will start trying to encourage the bridge carriers to come with him he starts singing

"Come, unto the breach my friends
Let us carry on until the end
Never mind the danger that we face
Get this bridge into its place
The sooner we're done, the sooner free
The better off we all will be!"

He keeps his focus on using the shield to protect himself and the carriers from the arrows

Xavier has Lifting, could he use that to protect the bridge carriers? And can we run interference somehow, putting ourselves in the way of the arrows?
