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

Started by General Zink438 pages

I'm a little more partial to the idea keeping everyone together as well. Sneaking would be useful if we could ALL sneak. It is easier to have our talkers get everyone in.

I'm gonna agree if the shit hits the fan we'll be in a much better position if we stick together

I also like the talking our way in route better cause we don't all have to talk to get in while the other way we would all have to sneak.

Also maybe a third option would be if they are still rioting bad, give them a little force nudge to direct that anger at the palace.

Fight an army with an army type deal. Its not like we need to give them orders we just need them to cause the palace guards to have their hands full.

What about some kind of trojan horse strategy to help keep the rest of us together while the talkers get us in?

When you put it like that, Xavier...

Sticking together seems the best option. Can we agree on everyone going in together?

Ok well just to make one area clear... and also to make you guys a bit mad...

Whilst feeling things out in advance before you get there (one of your many allies you called in can pass this on), you can confirm that you are wanted men.

Apparently some prisoner in Datura negotiated an early release in return for telling the authorities all about you guys...

Let's presume the Mecrossans found out.

"I appears a certain Kai Feskin is going to be one of the victims of our assault," Rand says. "Our chances off bluffing our way past the guards and into the Palace as none, now. We will have to find another way. They'll be expecting us."

(Unless we can come up with convincing disguises and bluff our way in that way [since Rand has the relevant skills], it may be that we need a distraction near the Palace or that we sneak in)

Galder is NOT happy about that.

He's not certain what we could do as a distraction would be sufficient to lure soldiers away from the Palace other than blowing up something big and important. Even then, they might opt to just be on guard at the Palace if they anticipate it as a distraction and they're waiting for us to make a strike at the Palace.

Maybe we could blow one of plants in the city?

Okay, I am thinking that it may be more plausible to move through the severs to get to the Palace.

Might be an option. We could even retreat back through the sewers and try to lose any pursuit in there.

Hmm,I am considering a way to use Gallador's power of lies to our advantage.... maybe he can bluff that he wants to sell others to Rivas? Or at least bluff to the guards?

Why do most of our exit strategies involve sewers 😛

Why would Feskin be hanging around the palace?

Not important. Galder would be more than happy to kill him but our target is Rivas.

...I knew we should have killed the ****er.

It doesn't matter. We'll find him and kill him if we can.

Azarl will also have gotten in touch with both of his contacts to see if they can help in any way.

Maybe we could have one of our contacts bring us in as hostages, turning us over to curry favor with the Emperor. Then we pull a Chewbacca and break free of our bonds and start the fight.

Though maybe too grand.

Let's decide on ONE approach please. Are we sneaking in the sewers?

Sewers = bad idea. Do we really want to get lost in a subterranean maze we don't know at all and screw ourselves over before we even attack?

I like this. Is it plausible, Ush?

Contacts never DO anything; they just provide info.

Time is running short for an elaborate plan.

It's that or the streets at this point. I have a feeling it'll be hard to sneak through the streets en masse.
