Reach of the Empire OOC

By Edgehawk, in Star Wars: Age of Rebellion Beginner Game

Okay. Hacking and trickery both failed, but I’m using a Triumph to have the well-meaning Captain override the lockdown.

@bsmith23 You still need to narrate your turn in the IC, Ralph. 🤣

@Rabobankrider and @Rimsen

You are up!

The two Cutlass-9 patrol fighters will wrap up this round after everyone has acted.

@Edgehawk I am literally right next to her on the ship right? Or close enough to her? Could I pick up the vibrocutlass and smack Velana into submission.

I narrated Banshee Squad taking PQ into custody, and Venlana’s guards escorting the hostages off the yacht. Would Drogos still be on board? His presence on the yacht would certainly change a few things.

Ah ok, yes he would want to imprison Velana as she took the imperials hostage, so he would have liked to have the ship scuttled if possible

As I see the hostages leaving the Yacht, Evon goes to them and identifies them as he did with the troopers in the transport. He wants to make sure ther is no impostor among them and check their medical condition.

I added a line at the bottom of the IC acknowledging the Inquisitor’s continued presence on the yacht. Everyone will have a turn before it gets back around to Venlana and her yacht next round, but her crimson guards will be up nearer the top of the round. Also bear in mind there are still queensguard boarders, preparing to enter the main hangar.

If Drogos is remaining on the yacht, he will have the opportunity to either confront the Baroness, or sabotage the ship.

I would like to sabotage the ship then she can be confronted.

Still down. Venlana ordered it closed, but did not take Drogos into account. Logan is down by the ramp, while Venlana’s other guard is near her.

Help would be nice

Can I do a discipline or cool check to drop some strain or are we still in structured turns right now?

Keeping it structured for at least this one upcoming round, though rolling to recover Strain is an option (in lieu of other maneuvers/action).

Venlana’s arrest will keep things in structured time, for as long as it plays out (so surrounding activity will also remain structured, for now).

Evon has served aboard the Intrepid , and can recognize the familiar faces- there are only ~40 total officers, enlisted and troopers attached to the vessel. Lieutenant Govern, the Ops Officer, has a badly broken nose which you could tend to if you wish.

Okay, I edit my post according. I assume I can make the medical check this turn, while being grumpy about the lack of protocols :D What's the difficulty?

Yes, go ahead. I’m away from books, so just use your judgement to make the check you think it should be. I just narrated the guy getting elbowed in the face for 2 Threat generated in the yacht hostage revolt.

When do I get my next action

Even if he got some wounds it still should be easy for less than half of his threshhold. Otherwise a not too harsh critical, I feel like I can make an easy check:

Fixing Lt. Govern's nose : 2eP+2eA+1eB+1eD 1 success, 6 advantage
p-a.png p-a-a.png a-a-a.png a-a-a.png b-s-a.png d-th-th.png

Ok, so i put it back to it's place and for the advantages, maybe a bit of a morale boost? Some strain off the ppl around the crew or the crew is a bit more eager, maybe someone remembers my name, when next time I requisition some new gadget. Honestly I have no idea how could it change the scene right now.

Sorry for the delay, I've not had a chance to get back on the computer.

Den Gunnery Check : 1eP+2eA+3eD+1eS 1 failure, 2 advantage
p-s.png a-a-a.png a-a-a.png d--.png d-f-th.png d-f.png s-th.png So the shot goes wide I guess, can I use the advantage to pass a boost to our pilot?

First I'll spend my free maneuver to do a cool check to recover strain, if that Alright.

http://: 4eA 5 successes, 2 advantage a-s.png a-s-a.png a-s-s.png a-s-a.png

Can I use the advantages as a boost to my action? (Which will likely be attacking logan)

The Strain recovery was your whole turn, not just the Maneuver.

Unfortunately @CloudyLemonade92 , @P-47 Thunderbolt is correct. With the boarding party, and plans to arrest Venlana, we are still in structured time. You may use the Strain recovery roll in lieu of Maneuver(s) and Action. Assuming you choose to Maneuver and Act instead, you may keep this roll, but it will not be applied until we leave structured time.

Oh my bad, I had that all wrong.

If it takes my whole turn I wouldn't have chosen that. I'll move to engage Logan, then I'd like to attempt to persuade him to surrender.
