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

At this point, pretty pointless. You put yourself in a lot of danger moving near the melee but so many Pikemen died last turn that they'll be concentrating on the ones up there now, not spreading out.

Someone who is 1) nearby and 2) has Charge needs to go rescue Gallador.

"Come on, let's go," Rianna says to Relle, moving to Floor South and hacking down a guard. Swap out Cleave for Riposte, and spend a point on Ward.

Could Xavier use Lifting to get Gallador out at this distance? I don't think anyone could get to him in time.

Rand is going to swap DW for Focused Guard, refresh DW if possible. He then taps Focused Guard if attacked by more than one opponent, or if Rivas comes for him. If Rivas attacks, he'll be the Focus; if not, the Focus will be one of the Staffmen. If there is no Staffman, it'll be a Pikeman.

Rand is going to contemptously Fling Rivas down the steps again, laughing as he does so.

Gallador won't die in one action; there's a little time.

You can't Lift him and fight!

Rianna, you're going to need to tap something or go down. I can tell you that right now.

Relle is going to move in and tap Riposte, if possible, and tap Orthodox Guard as she moves against the guards, cutting one down with tremendous fury.

Okay, so if we get initiative I'll do what Galder suggests:

Swap in CoC for Eagle Eye, tap it, and shoot the guards in the south, spend lucky to make sure as many as can go dead. Also use Ward.

Now, if they get initiative, I was thinking I could do this:

Drop the blaster and get out my sabre. Swap in charge for Eagle Eye, tap OGu and charge and attack one of the staffmen before anything else. Also use Ward.

Does that make any sense?

Define 'south' please. Precision as ever, folks.

I also think Rex advised you wisely.

Ick, you're right. I wish I had more defensive options 😛

I'll tap Orthodox Guard, and keep the Ward spend. Still moving to Floor South to waste a guard and swapping Cleave for Riposte. On the off chance that Riposte would trigger (not likely but possible) tap that.

Lower Viewing Gallery South, don't want to take Rianna and Relle's glory.

I'd shoot Lower South instead of Floor, maybe.

Thanks, else I'd have defaulted to the closest, you see.

Yeah, stay out of the Staff/Pike fight right now, Con. You're not in good shape for it. Those guards need to be murdered quickly.

Ush, if I blow a point on Saber Throw, can I use Swiftness' instant draw effect to switch to unarmed in the same turn, for the purpose of using Combat Shticks in defense?

Also, with all the guys we've disarmed/killed, can I steal a staff or pike?

Or better yet, can I wield two halves of a broken pike for Twin Weapons?

No, if you made a sabre attack that locks you into sabre I am afraid.

Sure- in fact, Staff A's staff is right next to you. But nothing suitable for twinning sadly.

If Rah is down what are his options for getting out of the way/damage limitation or is that it?

That's it, I am afraid, though I might just retcon you back in if you can come up with what ou were doing these last two turns!

Can I retroactively Evade Staff F?

Azarl will do it again this turn, spending two Evade both Staff F and Pike V, then taking a swipe at Pike V to bring him down faster.

And does Perfect Strike stack when tapped?

As far as things up North and the rescue of Gallador should go...

Dak and Xavier should move up to join Edna so she doesn't get wrecked by those two staffmen. If they take on the staffy guys, then Edna should be able to lift Gallador out of the way of the fire and to safety.

One of them isn't actually going for Edna, still chasing Dak (though that's not actually too smart of him).

You can, Azarl, though bear in mind that Staff guys still have a reasonable chance of hitting you with an evade, whilst Pike guys are pretty much auto-misses. Going for it?
