Ffffff-
Well giving it further thought...
Dekas are actually pretty hard for a Jedi to beat when they turtle themselves with their shields. Even Qui-gon and Obi-Wan just stalemated them in TPM.
We should proooobably retreat. But not "turn tail and run so they can shoot us in the back" retreat. More like, "back up slowly using our sabers to block laser bolts until we get enough distance to run away" retreat. And kill any epireans that try to fight with us as we do so.

Rianna- force senses say: As soon as you get within sight of the door, you will be within sight of the sniper.Not that you really need Force senses to have got that; where else was he going to cover? He's not found it hard to predict you.
Getting inside trumps trying to be unpredictable...
(besides, where else could I really go or what could I do anyway?)
Would that be close enough where a Dash could get me the rest of the way inside?

Well if out of sight of the doorway that could be tricky and might involve danger.
Doubly so as you can hear gunfire from there.

...but you said that when I'm within sight of the door I'd be within sight of the sniper? Meaning that I'd still be able to see it when I were to use Dash (if it were to help)...?

In any case Vic, yes, you think you should get out of there. You are not 100% sure how. Calling for help might be wise- maybe get an air strike over here after all. What's to lose?
We can call airstrikes? We have -air support-? WHY DID NOONE TELL THE NEW GUY THIS.
Vic will speak to his companions as they band together for their turtling. "Is there noone we can call for help?!"
Well you guys have spaceships, but there were practical reasons why they weren't much good to you. In part, trying to make a surgical strike on Ogros specifically through the jungle canopy is near impossible, but right now you'd go for any distraction.
You can call back to base and tell them things have gone not entirely as planned.

Not saying the situation is easy, Rianna! I can confirm that a. the sniper is indeed covering the doorway but also b. you sense danger involved in trying to Dash over there. And it's always trickier to dash to somewhere out of your line of sight as it's really a straight line power.
