It's your turn. The floor is yours...

Looks like Issan is a more promising leader than even I hoped.

Just to let everyone know, I'm again away this weekend (reenacting the American Civil War this time) so after I go AFK tonight I'm unlikely to post until Sunday evening. Sorry guys!

You're facing four minion groups of three (so twelve, although two are dead) - one to the left of the transport, two in front of it and one to the right. Zavvel's troops in the courtyard next to you are holding out in the doorway against the Imperials but they're becoming more outnumbered with every moment. They have a speeder loaded up with supplies which they're having trouble moving because of the incoming fire blocking up the gates facing each other.

Tactical assessment:

Toco has been hit and suffered 8 damage. He is taking fire but is otherwise in a good position to keep providing fire/sniper support.

Hotdog has also been his, taking 10 damage. However, he too is other wise good for now.

CT has also been hit for 6 damage. Like Hotdog, he is on the ground floor.

There's an upgrade and boost dice to the next attack (I'd recommend Toco or Rax takes the shot).

Four groups of three stormtropers. One group has only one member left and he's injured. What is the status on the other three groups (I believe three troopers are injured. Does hat one trooper in each group is injured?)

There is a setback dice due to the darkness (see question #1).

#1: According to the rules the threat generated by the storm troopers should significantly affect them, not us. In fact, due to them not really moving and us being able to see them, that would be in our favor. Is that set back dice just for them or are we all being hit with the negative despite it being the stormtroopers getting the threat?

#2: Now that Issan took his action, is it top of the initiative order? What is New order now?

#3: What about the rebels that were caught out in the open? Any them wounded but still alive or are they all dead?

#4: If Geoff can't see the injured rebels, how is a Perception check considered? RAW says it's an incidental.

I am hoping that if the troopers see the bunch of you running away from the house, they will chase you and I can open fire from behind them.

Distracting them or leading them away.

The fact that we keep being told we are getting more overwhelmed by the moment seems like it's certainly a flee situation. I'm going to see if there's another way to hide or escape. The GM made a couple mentions of Rebels being good at hiding and scattering, so I'm taking that as a hint.

Yeah, we should probably break for the sewers or something. Issan just wants to try and catch some footage of a "Heroic Last Stand" from whomever will cover our retreat. Don't worry, Issan can edit it to only make it appear that your sacriificed yourself for the effort.

That's my thinking too. Hopefully we can flee with the truck, but that could change.

Heck, finding a quicker path through a building or three might be helpful as well. That provides cover for us and will force the Troopers to try and fan out.

Also, for the record, I am going to be looking into taking either quartermaster, trader, or entrepreneur for a second specialization. I am going to want to get you three combat monkeys some better pistols, carbines, or rifles (and a nice video blade for you, Jaspor) since you guys seem to have the most use out of them (especially after Galeth's heavy hitting).

I also don't want to leave our truck and Tookur behind.

Way I see it:

Team A:

Rax and CT (Hotdog and Wolverine) are going to get the truck.

Team B:

Toco and Geoff will provide some cover fire and rear security.

That leaves Oro and Issan to decide on how they go. Either team can use a third person.

Oh I get that we are leaving.

But someone has to go after the Buckets, and I figure if we can confuse or split them we can make it easier for the Driver to get to the carrier.

How much am I allowed to hint? Because I had a cool idea but I don't want to push you. I may make it super subtle...

I never refuse a hint.

Hint hint - RUN LIKE KARK!!!!!

Well, I'll still go 6th. No shooting all about the running!

btw I have plans tonight, so I will be AFK after 5pm EST.

Nice roll, Jaspor!

Alright I'm going offline now. If I do post it'll be on mobile and thus without formatting, so apologies if there's confusion. Carry on without me, see you all on Sunday.

It's cool.

Just curious, for the actions, would you like us to bracket them for people as well as use a color code if possible?

I think it's fine if you just colour code them

Yeah the square brackets are just for poor bums like me who have the site blocked at work and therefore have to post from my phone during work hours. Lol

Alright I'm back. Everybody get posting!

I'd like to double-check what upgrades/boosts are floating around, any Issan can grab at if he can shoot?

Last I saw, I believe it is 1 upgrade and 1 boost from the previous turn. I'm currently getting the other stormtroopers to cover by firing my holdout at them.

You could also use a Destiny point to bring the pain of the stormtroopers as well.

You can always flip a Destiny point. Post and I'll adjust the pool accordingly

Yeah, I think Tears would have used a Destiny point for Toco had we all realized that the stormtroopers were going to charge on in.

Now part of me wished I took a mechanic/demolitions based character. I'd have wanted to place some charges next to the door to have them detonated. Or throw a stun grenade or three.

I wouldn't have used the destiny point. I was kinda hoping to be a target rather than some of the other players.

I didn't expect to drop, but in this game it isn't the end of the world.

Plus, It feels tense as anything now that PCs are dropping too.

Okay, I'll take all those upgrades and flip a destiny point. Let's hope Issan doesn't whiff it!
