Star Wars Clone Wars: Cyclone Squad OOC

By Rabobankrider, in Star Wars: Force and Destiny Beginner Game

Sighs, fine, I'll just shoot things then.

Well, guess we can't hotwire the droids on top of the heavy towers, huh? Or have their blown arms hold down the trigger on those things and just have them aim at the autoturrets.

If you want to try and scale the tower you're more than welcome to, but that's a **** of a risky climb. I do promise in other missions there will be plenty of things to hack and hotwire throughout. It's just that this tests primary focus is on combat.

For inspiration:

@Rabobankrider , what is our current range to the tower? Also, do only the clones have ascension gear or does Anler have gear as well?

Guys, what do you think about having Anler tie up the droids at close range while the rest of you advance and try to take out the droids manning the turrets? That's something Anler can't do, while a group of 5 B1s should be easy enough for him in a couple of rounds (dice permitting).

I think that's a good idea, then.

Citadel Initaitve:

  2. @satkaz
  3. @KungFuFerret
  4. @Kymrel
  5. @Vergence
  6. @Shlambate
  7. B1 Battle Droid Squad, soak 4, 20/20 wounds, 5/5 men
  8. Tower 1 soak 4, 4/4 wounds, 1/1 men, 2 setback dice
  9. Tower 2 soak 4, 4/4 wounds, 1/1 men, 2 setback dice

Current range to the towers is medium range (from the centre to the edge of the arena). You would all also have ascension gear for the climb.

Guessing that Tower soak and wounds is vehicle-tier?

Nah, it's just the soak of the droids operating the heavy machine guns. The 2 setback is from the secure position they're in.

Ah, okay.

Well we all go first so what's the exact plan guys?

The plan is that the clones are going to attack the towers, take out the droids manning the heavy guns there, and maybe use those guns to our advantage. Meanwhile, Anler will keep the droids busy.

Doc, Mynock, and 2112 are hitting left tower, Gunslinger and Slugger are hitting right tower.

I’m cool with the present initiative order if you want to begin with the left tower and then @KungFuFerret

@Edgehawk 's first, unless the turn was used to order everyone to positions.

Since we all take turns before the baddies just take your actions when you have the time to roll dice and write up a post!

Also, this just happened:

Attacking the B1 droids : 2eA+2eP+1eB+2eD 0 successes, 1 advantage

Clearly I forgot to send my monthly bribe for June to the Orokos-mafia.

I'll spend the single advantage on giving the next PC to act a boost, inspired by the heroic commander leading the way. An IC post is incoming.

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

, targeted the droids in the left tower as ordered.

Forgot the setback die, so they are here.

Extra Dice : 2eS 1 failure, 1 threat

Looks like the tower troops have 4 soak, so I did 4 damage total, and 2 threat.

Soak 4 (but also only 4 Wounds).

Ah yes, misread Tower 1 as 1 Soak after it.

Roll a Boost (from Anler)- see if you can negate that Threat.
