Sorry for the delay. I've posted more questions, this time about the aqueduct. I'll probably have one more post with questions before leaving Zavvel.
The rest of you, feel free to chip in or add something. Just because Liaka is asking questions doesn't mean the rest of you can't pile on, do something threatening, dance in a clown suit or something else you want to do 
Two things:
Firstly, I'm very sorry it's taken me so long to get back to this thread. It's been my own fault, and I shouldn't have left you guys waiting.
Secondly, Kymrel, could I have another interrogation check (your choice of skill) versus Zavvel's Discipline with DP flip (CCD) please? You're attempting to uncover further details, and he's not necessarily willing to fork them over.
Firstly, no worries!
Secondly, I'll try my hand at Charm I think. Liaka is a good listener, and Zavvel might find himself wanting to please her somehow. My questions are phrased in such a way to pain him in a very negative light, hoping he'll come clean just to show us he really isn't that bad...
So save you the trouble of updating, I'll flip a DP too. Can I claim a boost for assistance from either the trusty Analyst or the even more trusty Droid? If not, just ignore the boost 
Is it bad that Kixue finds himself agreeing with Zav? He can't seem to fault the logic in a pure analysis of war .....

The problem comes from the fact that would be a good policy where air power/control is not a factor (World War 1 and previous wars). However, with the coming of the "modern" air power, rail ways and bridges are no longer as necessary unless it is for the big pieces of equipment. There is a reason why most bases have at least a landing strip for VTOL (Vertical Take Off/Landing) craft, while something like a garrison would have the facilities to handle the big stuff since they are the main and most secure landing site on a planet.
In addition, water supply is one of the primary resources to be secure in building a base. While an aqueduct might be readily available, the fact that it can be easily taken out would make the Imperials less likely to make primary use of it.
Finally, it would also help the Empire control the local population as well as hand them a propaganda piece. Why support the rebellion if they don't care if people go without clean water, which was clearly being protected by the Galactic Empire?
But presumably you can't land massive troop ships in a city. So if there is a limited way to make troop movements harder it does make sense to limit the number of ways troops can be easily moved throughout the area. And the plan seemed to work the way the captain intended. As for the propganda aspect ....
Kixue's job is to provide intel, other people are payed to spin it

Well, that's the last of the questions for Zavvel up. We should be able to wrap this interrogation up now.
I'm waiting for one of you to post at this point, or else for you to decide where to go next. If not, I'll simply move you up to speak with Braxus.
Sorry for hogging the spoltlight during the interrogation. I didn't want to post yet again without allowing the two players who have not posted after the interrogation to do so.
Ready to move on.
In my defense I was the last one to say something IC
Not worried about you guys, just don't want to steamroll over the others without giving them a chance to post. Unless they have some objections, I'm fine to move on. Liaka's next move, barring any conversation with the rest of you, would be to ask the trusty analyst to compile a report, and then head to Braxus for a verbal debriefing.
If nobody has anything to add I'm fine with going for a chat with Braxus.
I think there's nothing more to be said. I'll update tomorrow.
Alright, that brings us to the end of Chapter 3. Therefore, you each gain 30 XP. Let me know how you spend it, and when you are ready to move on.
You also each gain 5 Duty. Kixue earns an additional 5 Duty for fulfilling his Intelligence Duty, but also earns 5 Conflict for his treatment of Zavvel, and allowing other PCs to treat him in a manner attuned to the Dark Side. Kael, if you could make your Morality roll in addition to the other parts I'd appreciate it.
Awesome, thanks for that. Since I have about 10.000 things I want to spend XP on I'll have a think and let you know.
EDIT: Well, not actually that complicated:
One question. I have exactly 100 credits. By bizarre chance. Can I spend those on parts to mod one of my attachments once, and ask our resident droid specialist to try to install it, with assistance from Liaka? I'm thinking about modding the Custom Grip, which has only one mod available, Accurate +1.
Edited by KymrelSure you can, with dtdunn's permission. Thanks for updating so quickly.
Kymrel, go ahead and roll: +1 Boost from you, 4 intellect and 3 ranks, +1 boost for journeyman tools.
So 1 green, 3 yellow and 2 boost. First one starts at 3 difficulty (although you likely already knew that)
Gearhead lowers the cost of mods in half, so I will add the extra 50 credits in supplies to the pile of "misc. gear" he has for crafting. He will use this for creation of other items. It will sort of be a "Hey, I didn't use all the materials I thought I would, I will save the extra for the next project" if that sound okay with everyone. This way he will get to crafting goals sooner as well.
I will spend 15 xp on "Bad Motivator" talent, and 10xp on 2nd rank of computers skill. I have updated the swsheets character page. 5xp held over
Well that thieving little droid...!
Just kidding. Thanks for the help! If you want to appropriate the 50 for the cause, feel free. I have other attachment I want to mod, but those can wait.
Here is the roll, only just managed to stop me rolling 3 difficulty dice, the "Quicktrigger" actually has a special rule lowering the difficulty of mechanics checks. Knew I bought that one for a reason 
N97 is very helpful with these things, and as long as the GM says the characters have the time, he can do anyone's mods. Just use the 1green 3 yellow 2 boost dice to roll your mod and make a post about it. In fact he generally will do anyone's bidding if it is reasonable and legal. He is just helpful that way.
I'll do updates and rolls a bit later. I'm thinking over what useful skills or talents Kixue could use

Mechanics for accurate attachment on custom grip: 1eA+3eP+2eB+2eD 1 success, 6 advantageWow. That was a little too close to a fail for comfort!Can we use the huge number of advantages for something, CC?
Special Modifications includes tables with extensive lists of potential ways to spend advantage. If you've got the book, you can have a look at those (it's in the crafting section, but I'd say they're cross-compatible).

Cool. I'll check that out tonight, don't have access to the book at the moment.
Thus far only Liaka and N-97 have spent their XP. Kael, Sarone, Jaspor, could you make your own expenditures please? This is a little frustrating.
