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

How many people are attacking guards right now?

Gallador will attack a Center Pikeman.

First off- swap in Reflection.

We actually have a lot of undeclared actions right now.

Galder, Rianna, and Xavier are going after the guards, leaving Gallador, Dak, Haron, and Con free to dispose of the last two Pikemen. Only Gallador has declared his action, however, of those last four against the Pikemen.

Relle should make Gun schtick swaps so that her shooting is effective... Both Guns Blazing last turn and Eye of the Storm, I reckon. I suggest using your missed turn to shoot the lone guard in the East and then a guard to the North this turn. You might be needing to shoot at a fleeing Nom next!

Rand and Azarl should indeed choke the gunners in the last tower. If they can both move into cover behind Galder's wrecked speeder upon arriving in the East, they should do so. If not, then Rand will just take cover in the South and use Grip to pin one of the gunners while Azarl mirrors him.

"No, we do not," Rand says, as he raises his fist towards the laser tower that has not yet been cleared of its gunners. He grins as one of the gunners starts gagging.

Yes, Azarl's idea was accepted. If they can take cover in East when they get there and still attack, then Azarl will do that, as Rand suggests. If not, Azarl will hunker down behind the camper and use Grip on the other gunner.

Azarl watches Rand, then mirrors his approach, concentrating as the other gunner begins gagging too, both of them flailing and gasping for air.

"Too easy," Azarl says as he slowly squeezes the life out of one.

Hmm, does look like we are a couple of actions short. I'll give it a bit.

Rianna was only going to go after guards if others weren't. If they are, then enough should be cleared for her to be able to advance, which she is going to do instead.

Yeah but if everyone is waiting on each other, you just end up with a bunch of no actions. Best to be decisive.

Well, then lets do in the center what Rand said (which is suspiciously the same I said, I'm on to you uhuh), except that Rianna tries to get to into the central building. Though I read it as us not being able to get to the Nom until we have cleared more of the area, not that we can get to him while clearing it.

Con will attack one of the pikemen anyways.

Attack a pikeman as well, doubling up with someone as before.

If you want to double up, you'd better name a pikeman.

I'd say Con and Haron engage the Pikeman that's attacked Con. And Dak and Gallador take the other one that's in close combat with Dak.

Pikeman K, then.

I am confused now.

So. This is what I'm going to be doing.

- If enough guards are killed by Xavier and (whoever else is going to kill them, I don't recall who), Rianna shall advance into the building Nom is in.

- If enough guards aren't killed, Rianna is going to go guard-killing herself as well.

Well, if you don't know who else you were relating that order to, I cannot process it. If you want to make conditional orders, the onus is upon you to provide clear conditions. That being so, you attack guards.

You retain initiative.

Azarl and Rand are doing their grip duo, which neutralises the gun this turn and will kill the gunners on the next.

Rianna kills two more guards as Xavier wades in and does the same. Relle fires from the tower and kills a guard (sorry- what gun does Relle carry?)

Gallador goes for a pikeman in the centre, hitting for 10.

Lacking clarity on pikeman attacks, Gallador attacks with Dak, and that one is killed. Con attacks his one, but he stays up.

Well... a smattering of firepower comes from the remaining guards towards those in the centre, but it does not achieve much. Another five just turned up though.

The back wall of the small building falls away... and Nom is revealed on his bike, preparing to jet out of there! Job has to be done this turn...

Swap in Forward Guard, please!

Rianna is going to go for Nom, tapping Forward Guard and using Flurry for a whole lot of damage.

Well Galder was meant to be the third to attack guards, suppose it doesn't matter now though.

Con would tap Charge to attack the Nom, if initiative matters to attack him straight away, otherwise I'd take the 6 extra dice.

Swap in Forward Guard, Tap Charge (A) for Nom, and tap Foward Guard while blowing a point for Flurry.

Any way the bike could be attacked and disabled, Ush?

If yes, Con, go for the bike. We'll do more damage on Nom than you.

Easier to go for the driver.

The way I understand it with Flurry the maximum damage you two can do is 48 damage. That might not kill him.

But I can also kill the pikeman, I don't really care.

Well, if you want to attack Nom too...
