USH'S STAR WARS GAME- CAMPAIGN II EPISODE VI (DARK SIDE)- Enemy

Draw it? No, they're not interested in shooting hand weapons at a starship.

What about just getting in the way in general? My ship's shields can stand up a bit better.

You can't cover all the windows- and also you'd in turn become a sitting duck for the ground fire, and you aren't as sturdy as Xavier's ship.

He can do a lot with the Force but if Merek falls out the car, Rand can't hold him in mid-air as he zooms away.

That car certainly isn't built to take hits. Flying stable is highly risky. Daredevil and/or Jinks Master would help.

Gallador is not greatest of pilots but I have one reroll left from Lucky Merit maybe it will be enough to reach Xavier?

We are waiting for Rand with Merik situation....

Yup you just need a good roll to reach Xavier. The Merek situation is separate. We're really honing in on a 'why you came here' vibe now, as you didn't have time to subdue Merek before leaving (due to general desperation).

Well we need him alive because we need to know how he knew everything about us. Killing him would take care of that but we want to know who is behind him so we can deal with them too.

Just to confirm, I won't be able to open fire this turn without harming Relle and/or Xavier's pickup?

Indeed so. Unless you want to blow in Guidance too.

Incidentally, entering a starship in flight is very dangerous indeed even at the best of times (which this ain't). Getting Merek into the ship... nearly impossible. You would need to have brought harness equipment and the like.

Hmm I do have some Force points left...

That does make this difficult. Maybe Gallador and Rand could crash land somewhere else and we could come for them instead?

I wish I had Guidance right now, I would be able to make a lot of spends. Oh well.

Azarl hits a fighter either way.

Maybe Rand could convince Merik to tell us why he tries us killed, quickly?

Everyone has astutely pointed out that Rand isn't very strong, so using the Force seems like the best option for pulling him back into the speeder, but it requires focus that Gallador's jinking doesn't afford me. If Galder strikes at the casino that will solve some of the trouble, so Gallador can relax his maneuvering enough for Rand to rescue Merek.

I somehow feel like he won't tell us while dangling from the speeder...

You're thinking rather Jedi there. In many ways, that's a great time to talk...

Rand could try to Intimidate him, telling him he will throw Merek off of the speeder unless he tells us who coerced him into coming after us.

He could try! I'll need a line though.

*Grabs some popcorn to see how this plays out* popcorn

What would happen if Gallador went in reverse all of a sudden. You would think that would throw everyone for a loop and get Merrik back in the car 😛
Still Intimidate Master squid 😄

"If you want to live," Rand yells over the roar of rushing air and laser cannons and speeder engines, "tell me who put you after us and why! My life matters more than yours right now, don't think I won't throw you off this speeder to save myself easily!"

Maybe Merek isn't supposed to come with us at all. Find out what you need to know and you can drop him and be done with it.

"He didn't give me a choice! It wasn't anything personal!"

"WHO?! Give me a NAME, Merek!"

Rand is perturbed that the gambler did not say "she," as in "Adelmo."
