The Taris Event Chapter 2

[Furiel]

"So Leet, I assume the Sith Battlecruiser is in geo-synchronus orbit, and at this point it has launched no starfighters, is that correct?"

[Blackferne]

As of the last time he checked that was correct.

[Whiteness]

"Sir, we are exactly what we seem. We do not always come up with elegant solutions to our problems, for example we can see in hindsight how pulling our guns looks but at the time we didn't have many readily available options, but if we work together I think we can get out of this spot of trouble and benefit each other. We have one goal, to locate the man that Sargo is after. While looking for him we were confonted by the sith, most likely the same men that are here, and to save our skins we offered our services in locating Jounville for them. We may be the best option you have to deceive the Sith, we could go to them and inform them that the men in the picture are no longer affiliated with Kunga and give them a false trail to follow... But ultimately, if you refuse to help us to help you, we can tell them where you are and your involvement in the kidnapping and let them interregate you until they are satisfied."

"Now can we work together to save our collective asses?"

[Blackferne]

The power goes out for the neighborhood. A small backup generator for the complex lights up some basic courtyard lighting.

[Whiteness]

"The Sith are probably walking up to the Villa now, what do you say Ro'Talth? Work with us and we save your ass?"

Without waiting for a response he turns to his team. "Eli, watch Ro'Talth's back, Bulwark and Dood, can you see anything out the windows? So, do you have what you need to make a back door out of here?"

[Furiel]

My hands go into my pockets and I'm putting on my combat gloves.

In a low voice - "Ro'Talth and Ra'Wren please move to the middle of the room and get down, this is about to get very bloody and I'd like you both somewhere you won't be harmed by our team by accident."

[Blackferne]

My hands go into my pockets and I'm putting on my combat gloves.

In a low voice - "Ro'Talth and Ra'Wren please move to the middle of the room and get down, this is about to get very bloody and I'd like you both somewhere you won't be harmed by our team by accident."

Winner!

From the courtyard you hear the sound of a speeder being shot up with blaster fire and 10 Sith battle droids walk in followed by one Sith droid of a different model.

The Sith battle droids are bipedal with blaster carbines equipped. The Different sith droid is also bipeda, but is slightly taller, a bit thicker and has more sophisticated sensor euipment and is holding a heavy blaster pistol in each hand.

At this point we need to roll initiative.

[Arrican]

"The Sith are probably walking up to the Villa now, what do you say Ro'Talth? Work with us and we save your ass?"

Without waiting for a response he turns to his team. "Eli, watch Ro'Talth's back, Bulwark and Dood, can you see anything out the windows? So, do you have what you need to make a back door out of here?"

"Of course. You all are going to need to keep the front door busy for busy. I'm gonna need someone to take me to the furthest back wall."
I start unstrapping my backpack.

[Blackferne]

For ease of combat here allow me to roll initiative.

[Furiel]

If you're rolling for me then it's that.

If not then Eli's initiative is 1d20+5 = 11+5=16

[Blackferne]

Welcome to our 26 unit combat scenario.

Mark I Sith Bot 4 1d20+8[18,8]=26
Cuspar 1d20+6 [19,6]=25
Goon 4 1d20+6 [17,6]=23
Mark I Sith Bot 2 1d20+8[13,8]=21
Mark I Sith Bot 8 1d20+8[13,8]=21
Mark II Sith Bot 1d20+15[5,15]=20
Syric 1d20+3 [16,3]=19
Ra'Wen 1d20+3 [16,3]=19
Mark I Sith Bot 7 1d20+8[11,8]=19
Klak 1d20+9 [9,9]=18

Goon 1 1d20+6 [5,6]=11
Mark I Sith Bot 3 1d20+8[2,8]=10
Mark I Sith Bot 6 1d20+8[1,8]=9
So Leet 1d20+3 [5,3]=8

Driver RIP

[Blackferne]

For reference.
The complex looks like this:


The inside is like this:


To start the droids are in the middle of the courtyard.

[Blackferne]

And as noted before Ra'Wen's villa/conda thing is the bottom right building on the complex map, and the complex has stone walls surrounding it except for the top of the map where it exits to the street. The green circles on the complex map are trees.

And Remember Goons 1 and 2 start outside the front door, goons 3 and 4 outside the back door and goon 5 is inside the main room front door.

[Blackferne]

Mark I Sith Bot 4 targets Goon 1 and Fires.

1d20[12+4]=16 that scores a hit. 3d8+2 damage [4,3,3]+2=12

Goon 1 is dead.

Next up is Cuspar, Goon 4, Mark I Sithbots 2 &8, then the Mark II Sith bot and then Syric.

[Cuspar]

Activate Born Leader. (and I'm allowed to move too, I get against a wall away from a window where I'm in everyones line of sight)

[OOC: let's fuck these mother fuckers up]

[Blackferne]

Goon 4 peeks around the corner of the back of the Villa and shoots at Mark I Sith Bot 4.
1d20+3 [6,3]=9 The shot misses.
-------
Mark I Sith Bot 2 Take a shot at Goon 2
1d20+4 [18,4]=22 It hits.3d8+2 for damage [7,5,4]+2= He's very very dead.

------
Mark I Sith Bot 8 moves towards the rear of the villa taking a shot at Goon 4 in the process
1d20+4[6,4]=10 which misses

------
Mark II Sith Bot towards the rear of the Villa taking a shot at Goon 4 in the process
1d20+14 [5,14] is a hit. 1d20+14[12,14]=28 is a hit. 3d6+4[2,2,2]+4=10 Dead Goon 4.

And Syric is followed by Ra'Wen Sith Bot 7, Klak then Ro'Talth

[Whiteness]

What does rear of villa mean? From the action I was assuming Goon 4 peaked around the top right corner of the villa since the Sith were in the center of the compound, which would lead me to believe the two droids moving to the rear of the villa are at the top of the villa moving to the right. Would I need to break the window to shoot out it? I'm going to assume no, otherwise I would delay a bit

HP 24 (Threshold 13) FortD 12 RefD 18 WillD 15 Speed 6, atk +1, Dex +3

Syric draws his Ion Pistol as he moves to the window, seeing the dual weilding droid he shoots.

Attack Roll(1d20)+6: 17,+6 Total:23
1 base attack +1 Point Blank bonus + 1 Cuspar bonus + 3 Dex=+6

Damage Roll(3d6)+2: 6,3,6,+2 Total:17
+1 base attack +1 Point Blank bonus = +2

[Blackferne]

You are right to assume Goon 4 was peeking around the top right corner of the building, and you are right assuming that Mark II Droid and the Mark I Sith Bot 8 are about half way down the side of the building right in front of the windows on the top of the building.

You can shoot out the window this turn and your shot against the Mark II Sith Bot misses.

[Blackferne]

Ra'Wen draws her pistol and gets into a defensive posture +5 to reflex


---------

Mark I Sith Bot 7 walks to teh rear if the building and makes it half way. It is next to Sith bot 8 and the Mark II droid.


Next up is Klak, Rotalth Bulwark and Eli.

Eli your stuff is in the speeder. But you'd have to go get it.

[Reese]

Klak moves to ducking down in the nearest window and takes aim at the nearest droid.

HP 46 (Threshold 17) FortD 17 RefD 19 WillD 13, Speed 6, atk +2, Dex +3

Klak draws his blaster and fires at the nearest droid to the window, Mark 2

Attack Roll (1d20)+7: 19,+7 Total:26
2 base attack, 1 Weapon Focus Rifle, 3 Dex, 1 Level

Damage Roll, (3d8)+2: 8,7,3,+2 Total:20
2 Rifle Specialization
- 5 to Enemy Damage Threshold (Devastating Attack)

Klak tries to take cover under the window sill
Stealth (1d20)+4: 16,+4 Total:20

[Blackferne]

Reese your hit lands on the Mark 2 droid who now looks at you. It seems to have been a solid shot as well.

---------

Ro'Talth draws his pistol and takes a shot at the Mark 2 droid

1d20+7=[3,7]=10 It misses.

--------------

Bulwark is up.

[Dood]

I know it's not yet my turn, but for the sake of keeping things moving, I'm assuming I can do the "Tell me what your basic goals are and I'll take care of it."

Dood's basic goal is to locate a position where he can get cover and hopefully utilize the snipe ability of the stealth skill (SWSE Rulebook, Page 73, paragraph 5).

Use carbine blaster, try not to die.

[Bulwark]

Bulwark moves next to the window to get some cover and pulls out the stock on his carbine. Gritting his teeth, he fires a shot at Bot 6 and mutters, "I really hate droids."

(1+ from level bonus, +1 base attack, +3 dex bonus,+1 from Point Blank Shot, +1 from Cuspar's born leader)
Attack Roll:
Roll(1d20)+7: 12,+7 Total:19

(1+ from level bonus, +1 from Point Blank Shot)
Damage Roll: Roll(3d8)+2: 4,3,5,+2 Total:14

[OOC: if Bot 6 is more than 150 meters (30 squares) away, remove the point blank bonus)

[Furiel]

[OOC: looks like I might be needing your shirt Reese]

I would assume considering the volume of blaster fire that has gone through the window toward the MK2 droid that that window is either open or not there anymore...in which case it's time to take the most direct route.

"Cover me you 3, I'll draw the droid fire so the rest of you can get them outta here!"

Going full defensive and moving 6 squares, likely including a diving roll through the window.

HP 40 (Threshold 14) FortD 14 RefD 30 WillD 15, Speed 6, atk +2, Dex +4

Acrobatics roll for going through the window: 1d20+10: 16+10=26

So I would say I successfully dove through the window and rolled up to my feet and am now standing in the courtyard area, full defense with my club in hand.

[Gandolfini]

Eli's plan sounds as good as any I heard yet.

HP 40 (Threshold 14) FortD 14 RefD 18 WillD 15, Speed 6, atk +3(+4 lightsaber), Dex +3

Swift Action: Lightsaber in right hand. Do not light.

Move Action: Tumble through window to end up next to Mk II
Acrobatics [1d20] 13+9=22

Combat Action: Stick my hand through the force field and Force Lightning. Use a Force Point.
Use the Force [1d20] + [1d6] + 7: 20+5+7=32
Damage [8d6]: 6+4+2+5+1+6+2+5=31x2(crit)=62 (and move -2 down condition track)

Dark Side point: +1
