Sure...let's call it a maneuver to amble back on inside, and then it'll just be an action when you're close enough. Go ahead with the narration and the Influence power check, making an Average () Discipline check alongside it.

Sal is going to punch it as well, staying out of anyone's way but doing his best to stay with the other racers. What is the dice pool I'm rolling against?

Punching it is just a maneuver. You decide what speed you want to "punch it" to, and then you suffer an equal amount of system strain.

You'll be making a Piloting check at the end of the round, so do you maybe wanna fix some strain with a Mechanics check? If you are at 2-3 strain, it's an Average check, but if you're just at 1 strain it's Easy. But in any case you'll need to increase the Difficulty +1 for not having tools to fix it (I don't think opening up a toolkit whilst piloting a speeder is exactly a good idea, do you?)

Any other input it welcome!

What I need to know is how you are intending to discern/ascertain this information. For example, you don't already know the information, so a Knowledge check isn't appropriate

If you like, you can go ahead and narrate IC what you do, and then I will give you a difficulty & skill to use. Or, you can talk about it here OOC and we can work something out.

Want me to hold my action while this sorts out, or is it okay to go ahead and post it?

I would like to try and either overhear who has the Jedi or charm someone to tell me where he is.

I think Sal and Gralrrua have claimed the two spots...hold tight! We'll get there soon.

I would like to try and either overhear who has the Jedi or charm someone to tell me where he is.

Sure! It'll be a Daunting () check for Perception, difficulty upgraded once, or a Hard () Charm check. You may add a Boost die to either check for the information overheard in the previous round.

Gralrrua, need any help with the skill check?

Keeping his head down, Sal accelerates to get follow the rest of the pack.

[Giving up my action to have two Maneuvers. Using both Maneuvers to Accelerates from 1 to 3.]

This will still cause your swoop to take 2 System Strain—just making sure you're aware.

Is that how it is suppose to go? According to page 232 of the EotE, as a single pilot I can downgrade my Action to a Maneuver instead of taking the two strain.

Yup, but any time a vehicle performs two pilot-only maneuvers in a round, it suffers two strain for the second one. Doesn't matter where the maneuver comes from.

How's it going, guys?

Let me know if I can be of any help in the encounter, or if you aren't sure what to do, or if anything is unclear.

Currently just waiting on Gralrrua for his turn.

I'm waiting on my slot to go; I can go ahead with my turn if you want.

Go for it!

Hey all, just need a few hours to sort my computer out and then will take the NPC turn.

I can go after the NPC slot, sorry things got hectic for me these last few days, also does anyone care if I use a destiny point on my check?

OOC: Lotr_Nerd - I say go for it and spend the Destiny

Gralrrua can take his action now, if he'd like, while I am waiting for my computer to finish fixing itself. I know it's a little out of order, but he can do little to affect the swoop racers from his location, and I'd prefer to keep the action going

Well that check didn't go my way, I used a perception check . I used a destiny point to upgrade my check.

2eP+1eB+3eD+1eC: 0 successes, 3 threat [2eP=S/A, -] [1eB=S] [3eD=Th, F/F, Th/Th] [1eC=Th]

You missed a Boost die from Gormo's last check...perhaps his antics might have caused a distraction to your advantage. We'll know once we see the results of the Boost die (you may roll it and post the results here).

Nothing changes but at least there was a possibility of something happening.

1eB: 0 successes [1eB=-]

Who has yet to go this round?

Just wanted to check and see if the current encounter is grabbing everyone's attention Speak up if you're bored! Or confused.

I'm idling for now, but I knew that when I set up my backstory.

I posed this to Sarone in PM, but what would you all say to an automatic loss on the PC's side, but the catch is that it's "all part of the plan" to get Wes Alban's brother back?

I am fine with that just remember you have two dark side points GM.
