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

Being dark tunnel dwellers, how about some kind of bright lights, it might not scare them but it ought to hurt their eyes and make it difficult to fight us if they can't see properly?

Nope.

And Almir was already clear on this- black is airless.

Is it feasible that previous mining operation reached to Black at all?

Pretty sure they avoided Black because of the lack of air, wasn't worth it. Maybe it'll be in the mining records Kuylen has.

We need people looking for canisters, dammit.

Gallador does not have Observation, would using his force senses be of any use?

But I still think there is some information we should be able to get from Almir.... Do we have an idea what route to take through Blue to get quickly to Black?

I like the idea of blinding lights, by the way.

The mining operation surveyed black (hence it actually having a colour rather than just being the rest of the planet) and decided it wasn't worth it. The mine never went below blue.

As ever, batteries for bright lights are what are in short supply.

You do not have a route through blue, no. Afraid not on the force roll though.

Ok, so a final list of who is doing what, please! Some of the tasks I said were difficult are still possible, you'll just get a less efficient yield from successes.

I think the four major ones we were thinking of were.

Looking through Kuylens things (Observation)
Finding air canisters (Observation)
Fixing air canisters (Fix It)
Finding or making rope (Observation/Fix-It)
Finding/Building Batteries/Torches (Observation/Fix-It)

Obviously fixing air canisters follows from finding them, so if we get one player to find them and 5 to fix, that's probably stupid (on the other hand, finding them may be easier than fixing).

Everyone of us has observation, Con, Rianna and Relle are the best at it though.

Only Xavier, Con, Galder, Dak and Rah have fix it. Xavier being the best.

The bright lights counted.

And yes, only the minimum result out of finding and prepping the canisters will count.

Btw, you can make rope instead of finding it.

Edited to reflect that. Btw, will the new skill "Survival" come in handy in blue?

Only if you were staying there for any length of time.

Okay, Gallador will help looking though Kuylen`s stuff. Perhaps there is something Jedi Lore oriented there?

Do remember his stuff is all stuff he found here; like all the prisoners he brought nothing with him.

Crazy idea here - how about using the rope we make to tie up some the more hapless folk from the next level down to feed to the trogs when we go into blue? Obviously the rope can be freed up as we need it.

I think we might have an overabundance of people looking at the mining records and Kuylen's stuff right now. That should take maybe two people. Leave it to the Forcies to check for anything important in there. We need people working on finding supplies.

Azarl will help look for empty canisters to fix, using Observation and Force Sense if that can be applied.

I agree with Rex. Rand wants to look through the records and use his powers and Observation to look through the mining records that Kuylen grabbed. Rianna can help if she likes, everyone else should work on the other projects.

We will need light for certain. Perhaps we could make gas lamps.

The most practical objection to this horribly dark side plan is probably bulk (and the difficulty of climbing through caves with someone tied up). In fact, you must consider bulk very carefully as even on blue air is short, and those laden will be in trouble.

In fact, you are already looking rather warily at the canisters...

So I have:

Rand: Records

Azarl: Cylinder search

Gallador: Records

Dak: Filling cylinders

Rianna: Records

I'm making the rolls tomorrow, so get your final ideas in!

You know guys we are the dark side. If we need something bad enough or want something bad enough we can always try and steal it before leaving.

It's not like we're expecting to have to deal with Kayda anytime soon again.

With that said Xavier will be most helpful either filling air tanks or possibly making rope.

Would making rope be a fix-it score Ush?

Indeed it would!

Well, since the mining records are far overrepresented now, Con will instead look for air cylinders. We need more people to fill them though. Perhaps Xavier and Rex can help with the filling. And Relle helps find air canisters. Then we have 3 people looking for them and 3 people fixing them, if we assume it take the same amount of skill to find them as to fill them.

Could Orikan change Con's blaster. I think I'd prefer the other set up you stated.
