Currently I narrated the companies colour as black, as I don't believe that was used yet by a unit. However if you all prefer a different colour I am willing to change it.

@rocketrobie2 , that is correct for the fear check, yes.

Anyone trying to rescue the clones and civilians from the wall, I'll need a hard athletics with a setback to see how many you can resuce.

So should @rocketrobie2 and I proceed in the pit?

@Xcapobl It's just an Easy (1 Purple) Medicine check (base difficulty anyway)

Medicine check on Brick : 3eP+1eD 3 successes, 2 advantage, 1 Triumph

Seems like fixing Brick is easy. 😂

Also, is Caieous still Stunned for this round? Or was that during the “free” round when he ignited his lightsaber?

@rocketrobie2 , you suffer 2 strain but otherwise are unaffected by the visage.

@P-47 Thunderbolt and @Shlambate , if you want to try and rescue the prisoners, it's a hard athletics with a setback. This will determine how many you can rescue. Anyone who wants to help can do. You can either do a check with an assist or two solo checks, the net number of successes will determine how many you rescue, so bare that in mind when deciding.

As this is happening at the same time as the combat below, the result of the rescue attempt will affect the creatures turn.

As a heads up, I will be away for a week or so, I will try to post during by it may be sparse at times, so apologies for that.

I'm taking that as two of us can each make one check, or we can work together and make one check.

Were you factoring Brick into that? We've got three who could make the check.

Driz's roll: Rescue Ops : 1eP+2eA+2eB+3eD+1eS 0 successes, 2 advantage

I'd like to pass on a Boost, if I may.

@P-47 Thunderbolt , that's correct yes, and feel free to pass a boost. Unfortunately you are not able to free anyone, but narratively can help the others. @pyciloo you can make the check as well if you want.

@Rabobankrider I'm going to use my action to move in a range band towards @Jedi Ronin and the lightsabers.

@Rabobankrider Caieous next action is to use Move to slam the figure into the ground, Maneuver to Aim that ranged attack.
If there is an obvious object to throw at the figure of Silhouette 1 or 2 instead he’ll do that instead. I’m going to assume that the ranted attack will be an opposed Discipline check instead of of a base difficulty based on the object Silhouette.
Thanks.

@rocketrobie2 , that's fine, you can also grab your lightsaber if you want. @Jedi Ronin there's some loose rocks and the plinth itself for silhouette 1. The figure will go before as it is there turn, I will try to sort that post upon my arrival.

@Shlambate , you can either rescue some extra individuals, or gain some insight into what's going on here from a 'gut feeling', or something else if you're feeling creative. For the threat you just suffer 1 strain.

I will take the info.

@P-47 Thunderbolt And Slugger will tell Driz all about it after a commercial break or when Rabo gets back.

He was being sarcastic, as in, "I feel the same."

I know, but he will literally tell him about it, which I found funny.

@Rabobankrider Just zip the lightsaber to Vinteer's hand with the force? No role or nothing? If so I'll edit my post accordingly, just want to make sure.

@Jedi Ronin , you're up! Currently all enemies are at medium range, with the statues moving between you and the corpse figure. You can see most of their room seems to be some kind of cave, strewn with rubbish and what looks like remains as well as old mining equipment. You also no if you choose to try to escape that their must be some kind of way in and out that Vinteer used.

@Edgehawk , @Shlambate , @P-47 Thunderbolt , @Xcapobl and @pyciloo , if the rest of you want to push further into the temple, an average survival check will help you navigate, and a hard athletics can have your arrive at the next location this round of initiative.

@P-47 Thunderbolt and @pyciloo , you're able to smash the restraints and rescue about five of the clones or civilians before my post comes into action. You can choose among yourself if you want to prioritise soldiers, gungans and ithorians, or a mix.

@Shlambate , for Slugger this is mostly gut feeling, but you do remember some of the older clones telling 'ghost stories' back on Kamino. Stories of sinister cults and witches who could suck the very soul out of your body. This place with its religious motif, sacrificial rooms and strange undead creatures certainly match those stories. To Slugger it feels like this place is stealing the very soul, or force or something out of these captives, leaving them empty shells. Perhaps that's how they're transformed after. The orb must be some kind of storage or transformer for this process.

@Jedi Ronin and @rocketrobie2 , I don't think it spoils anything to warn you that I am intending on using phalanx rules for your upcoming combat. I know that it is designed for droids, but I think it fits the scene here well.

For anyone without the clone splat books, the rules are as follows:

A phalanx; or horde for this combat, will for the most part be treated as a standard unit of minions, however when they lose units they remain at full effectiveness. If the pc's defeat the number of enemies at the front of the unit, the horde loses its manoeuvre, if they defeat double or spend an triumph then the horde moves one manoeuvre back. As this has a melee focus, if the horde moves to engaged range and the pc's don't destroy the front row on their turn, they will be overrun. Thus means they are acting as if in difficult terrain and the horde gets a second attack against them.

In the mean time, I am going to say that you guys can choose your battalions colours. Most units use a single colour but some rare cases may use 2-3. I will ask that you avoid anything too obvious as mimicking established units, eg the blue of the 501st or the orange of the 212th. This'll be decided by rule of majority so, the most chosen colour etc will be the final choice.

Currently no one other than Gunslinger has any markings on their armour, and Gunslinger's are only the sergeants markings. This time period is around the transition time from standardised colours to unit patterns, so you will be able to take on your colours next session. Assuming you survive that it.

I vote Red, but a deeper one than the security forces on Coruscant under Fox. Maybe a Red and Black so that we are different.

I say prioritize clones.

Is the Average Survival check for each individual, or for the group? I'm guessing it's one for the group. Fortunately, I believe Driz has the best Survival anyway, so I'll just add a Boost if it's relevant.

Survival : 1eP+2eA+2eD 2 successes, 1 threat

Take a strain? Any effect on the Athletics check?

I vote blue, as I've already schemed out what Driz's markings will look like (picture on his sheet). Maybe just make it a darker blue so it doesn't look like the five-oh-first?

As for not copying existing legions, we've already got purple, red, dark red, maroon, brown, black, gray, blue, green, dark green, yellow, and orange, so I'm not sure what options we have available.

Pink, Indigo, Brown, Plenty of colors but none of the like top favorite colors as we Hit most of the main rainbow colors.

As for my most recent IC post Slugger wants to try and save the clones but he's no doctor so he wouldn't immediately know that they were gons after the screaming. Can Slugger make a Check to determine if they are alive or does he know as soon as he checks the pulse? @Rabobankrider

Nope, no Brown. Captain Keeli's legion.

I feel like a real dolt. I just noticed I can't use the damage upgrade with my force move power since I can't move anything larger than a silhouette 0 item haha.

Sil 0 does 5 damage.
