USH'S GAME EPISODE IV- 'CHASE'- DARK SIDE AREA

"One should always have contingencies for all eventualities," says Saar/ He activates the comms unit, and it tunes into its destination, but the de-phased carrier wave is causing the transmission quality to snip.

"Grandmaster Trokair, this is Saar," says Alik, pausing for the noise from your gunfire. "I regret to announce that Nayler has gone insane. He has declared that the planet must be purged of out presence regardless of consequence and has teamed up with the Jedi to destroy us. We are trapped in the citadel and cannot hold out much longer. If I am forced to flee..." Saar holds up the remote unit that will terminate Latara. "I would hate to do so but if Nayler presses home his attack I will have no choice. Please, you mst help before..."

At this momnt Saar shoves his sbare into the transmitter unit, violently breaking the transmission and leaving it unusable.

"There," he says. "That should make things more interesting, don't you think?"

"it should have an effect"
(who's tokair? and i assume you meant saar not Alik)

His name is Alik Saar, but I had just used Saar in the sentence so to use it again would be ugly (the writer in me, there)

Trokair is, evidently, the Grandmaster of the Order whose daughter is held hostage.

yeah..i suspected.
"he should be a man who cares more about his daughter than the order, or so we hope. We should try and stop nayler from contacting him, though"

"He'll have to do it the long way around," says Saar, pointing at the comms unit. "That's the only long-range unit in this citadel. We have to make sure Nayler and his men are killed before they sort things out.

"You had best prepare to defend this place, Takuan. It's going to get quite ugly.

"we'd better recieve reinforcements from Trokair. How long could we stand on our own." Takuan starts looking around to figure how they could block themselfs in, sieling the possible entrances

"We'll seal off as much of the citadel as we can and just defend the upper level- my office and Latara.

"I'd welcome any ideas."

"well..how many entrances are there to the upper level?"

"Four, in compass directions, all stairways."

"they'll come through all four of them. i doubt we can block them all..we have to approach them otherwise. Can we count on Trokair responding before we're attacked?"

"No," says Saar. "Nayler's men only have to get back through the jungle to here. Trokair has to marshall his forces and get a hover transport to fly here." He hands you a small, squat device with a dial attached.

"Use this to blow the armoury. Set it to 5 and then meet me up top."

takuan runs towards the armoury, attatching the explosive on it, as indicated.

It occurs to you, halfway there, that the armoury is guarded...

(not turned against us yet i assume)

It's a dodgy area.

Takuan slowly approaches the building having his sabre hidden. He'll be ready to ignite it if they turn offensive.

(i was thinking of approaching for the guards not to see me at all..but if they would see me....they'd surely turn offensive)

Considering the circumstances they may well be suspicous of you approaching the armoury.

If you have a plan please feel free to describe it.

if they didn't see me already, Takuan looks around for any vegetation or whatever he can approach the building behind of, and not be seen.

Armoury is inside the main citadel; it is all internal.

oh.
how many guards?
