Initiative is yours!
Six successes to Xeth inflicts 12 damage to the Champion with the shotgun, while seven successes is more than enough for Tilulla to finish off the Champion engaging her.
Navir sends a grenade poomfing down on the Champion with Xeth's blaster. Ka-boom! Zarjab is actually hit by some of the shrapnel and shrieks.
The lesser minions are drawing back; you have been killing them in waves. Only Champions assail you now. From the stage, Champions with your blasters open up on Navir. He takes a very light hit.
Xeth is missed by the shotgun-wielder, but expends some effort deflecting blasterfire from a Champion with Navir's rifle.
Tilulla skillfully disarms a Champion with Xeth's pike, but takes a glancing blow from a Champion wielding a club.

Barker will be up next turn.
Clubber it is! Ti scores a hit for 9 damage on him; not enough to finish him. Xeth puts an end to the shotgunning going on and flips over to where Ti is.
Navir sends down another grenade as Vera-Kin brings Barker up. Zarjab is yelling uselessly on the stage as another Champion is blown up.
Ti puts down the disarmed Champion with her tap and protects Xeth from blasterfire before slicing the club out of the Champion's hand and running him through. Good form.

Tilulla starts floating into the air, then! She can use Pull to snag her swords as she comes up.
With only one Jedi still on the floor, the Maltites grow confident again. Xeth lands a hit on the Champion but doesn't quite finish him before being swamped with warriors.
Navir blows up the Champion on stage, leaving Zarjab alone and wailing.

"Want me to take him out?" Navir asks you, Vera, referring to the cult leader.
