For the battle: As you search through the comm frequencies, with codes from Wale, you are able to gleam that the Empire has split into separate powers, the loyal but corrupt followers of the Emperor, the ones who allowed the Hutts and Black Sun to run their day to day operations unhindered so long as they continued their bribes, whereas the New Imperial Order, under command of Darth Vader, seeks to destroy the injustices of these corrupt officials and the organizations they support, bringing a true peace to the Galaxy and ending this painful civil war between the Rebel Alliance and the two separate factions of the Galactic Empire.

Watcha doin with da Triumph?

I'd like to use it as Kaigen suggested, see if I can make out the safest path through the battle and relay that info to Wale.

Yeah, you can do that.

Can I spend a DP to have something good happen? Like something really good. I found out about Jedi Supply Caches when I was rereading through KtP.

Define "Really good"

I don't know. Obviously, it's killakan's call, but caches full of cool stuff seems like a bit much for a DP. The rulebook examples for "Luck/Deus Ex Machina" are much more minor things designed to allow the plot to keep moving rather than an excuse to stumble upon powerful items.

I like the use of that, find powerful items yourself.

Okay then. Will edit my post IC.

Can I scan to see if the hail is coming from the coordinates to which we're supposed to go? Difficulty?

Can I use my Intellect and assist sonovabith?

Yes to both.

2 Purple 2 Red.

Flipping a DP to upgrade my check. Also, thanks for the boost Shadowguard.

: 1eA+2eP+1eB+2eD+2eC 3 successes, 2 threat

OK, that could've been worse. Given the negative response that came across to Naught's reply, Larik felt a ton of pressure while doing the scan, so I'll take two points of strain for the threats, OK?

More like a setback die for the next check you deal with him, you did find him though, and he is not at the coordinates, he's at the airfield next to the coordinates.

OK.

Okay, what kind of base difficulty are we looking at for a Charm check to persuade them to allow us to land? I know we're adding a setback from that threat.

You can get a skilled assist from Larik to add an extra green to your Charm check Kaigen, since Naught has surely picked up a thing or two from watching him charm people in the past. Also, he's mouthing Naught words of encouragement and generally showing approval for how you're talking to the person on the other side of the comm.

Do it, 3 purple.

Less than ideal: Failed roll, but with 2 advantages.

Not that it will probably help much but don't forget you have the Kill with Kindness talent and haven't used your boost I got everyone from my successful leadership check when we came out of hyperspace.

Good catch, that negates one failure from the setback die. Here's the boost:

Shouldn't sonovabith have 4 die on his check due to my 4 Intellect?

Good catch, that negates one failure from the setback die. Here's the boost:

Charm follow on : 1eB 1 success, 1 advantage

Just short of success with 3 advantages.

What are you doing with that?

Using scanners is a perception check, so it has cunning as a base stat.

Hmm, advantage on Charm checks is normally used to affect unexpected subjects beyond the original target, so maybe someone else is on the ground listening in and is willing to help us despite spaceport guy's reluctance?

Ah, whoops. I'll need to change that in my games!

I mean, I could see an argument being made for using computers for a scanner check too.

So what are you doing with that advantage?

Well, what did you think of my suggestion upthread that someone else listening in offers us help?

That could happen, you just need to decide on whether or not to do it.
