"Nothing sinister. Just going by observed performance, given the known energy outputs of my pistol relative to Martina's rifle and the more standard-issue weaponry you and your friends appear to be carrying." Devan says in response to Sianni's comment.
"Talk to the lek." Sianni grunts in reply while nearly poking one of Devan's eyes out as she thrusts one of her lekku into his face. Bent on finishing her current target off she pours fire into the doomed droid till the shields collapse and it is blown apart by her spectacular display of firepower. * Only then does it fully register on her mind what she has just heard. And while there is a lot Sianni is willing to take without complaint, some things just go too far - like 'criticizing' her "father's" work. Standard? Standard ?!!!
* 3 shots at droid #5 w/PB (1d20+9=22, 1d20+9=22, 1d20+9=23)Damage for droid #5 (3d8+5=23, 3d8+5=18, 3d8+5=20)
** Sianni uses two cut-down and highly customized RepublicArms Starfire-6 blaster carbine prototypes. The last Starfire series model to be sold was the Starfire-4 which vanished from the market around 300 years ago when RepublicArms was swallowd by Merr-Sonn and the carbine was promptly replaced by an inferior but cheaper-to-produce Merr-Sonn model.
Kacela races into the cavernous room, lightsaber held back and up, tilted at an angle. As she gets to the nearest wardroid, she slashes it in a low, angled arc that bisects the mechanical menace's midsection...nearly dropping to her knees in the graceful motion. On the followthrough, she spins back up to her feet into a guard position, sweeping the 'saber around and back up. And the wreckage of droid#7 was all that remained after the blade passed through.
Working methodically, Hawke lines up another target in his sights, waits for a good shot, and fires a fifth blast from his pistol. And it was more than sufficient to drop droid #3.

In a stunning display of overkill -- Sianni's first shot destroys droid #5, but she shoots the wreckage with another pair of blasts -- droid #5 is reduced to a steaming pile of metal and circuitry.

Seeing most of the nearer targets being taken down or dealt with by others, Theta shifts his aim to the droids advancing in the middle of the room. He considers shooting a grenade into their midst but decides they're a bit to spread out to make it worthwhile using up one of his 3 grenades. With a flick of his thumb, he switches his rifle over to autofire mode and lets loose at the two droids in the center of the room.
"Quit bunching up and making us a target for their area attacks!" Theta advises the others before moving himself to get a better tactical view of the whole room.
Theta's shot was square-on enough, but it didn't seem like he got through the undamaged shields of either droid.
Tomalor continues his concentration on the droid, hoping to keep in still if nothing else. His droid keeps on shooting after stepping out of the way. His droid fires a rapid blast of shots that hit droids 8 and Y, causing their shields to flicker for an instant.
OOC
Continue to concentrate on force grip. Aicht will move N1 and tag 3 with a Rapid Shot if its still up, Y/8 with autofire otherwise.
Tomalor again held droid#1 immobilized, and crushed it a little despite its shields.
Devan took a shot at the immobilized droid, blowing away the last of its shields.
Droids #8 and #9 tried to set up X for a shot at Kacela, but the attempt failed, going well wide. Droid Y moved to target Martina and Tomalor with autofire, but couldn't even hit the area (because I rolled a 3). Droid Z tried the same tactic, aiming for Theta and Aitch Cay, with slightly more success; each was able to avoid some of the autofire, but not all.
Round 5
With the droids no longer bunched up, Martina flips her rifle out of autofire mode and takes a shot at #8, further blasting away at its shields, before backing up slightly.

1-9, X, Y, Z War Droids
* Cover (equipment)
Droid #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, and #7 are destroyed
Droid #1 is moderately damaged and has suffered severe damage to its shields; it is also immobilized
Droid #8 has slight damage and severe damage to its shields
Droid #9 has severe damage and have no shields
Droid Y has some damage to its shields
Droids X and Z are undamaged
Seeing his target satisfactorily eliminated, Hawke shifts his aim to the strangely immobile droid in the midst of the group and fires another single shot from his pistol. "I think I agree with Theta; threat level terminal seems appropriate."
Seeing how vulnerable it is...yet is still firing...Kacela quickly leaps around the corner to the south to jab her lightsaber at the guts of the wounded war machine...a straight thrust that would carry it through the energy core if successful, and poke into the cover behind it.
Tomalor keep clutching his left hand, lost in concentration. The droid continued its barrage with gusto.
OOC: The Use the Force check is re-rolled every round, correct? Let me know if he rolls a twenty (and thus keeps the power). For Aitch, Rapid Point Blank Shot at #8.

Still enraged over the 'dismissal' of her "father's" work Sianni comes out of her crouch and grabs Devan by the collar to drag him closer, hissing into his face:
"Standard-issue? You are a real idot, Ijatsi, aren't you?"
Almost instinctively and mostly as an afterthought she fires her right hand blaster without really looking at one of the metallic forms she vaguely caught at the corner of her eye while moving.
OoC: Move action to move one square to J3, attack action to fire at droid Y. Attack roll + damage 1d20+14=31, 3d8+5=11
Theta Fett, M Hum Soldier 7/Elite Trooper 1 (Ref Def 29, HP 67/100, Power Pack 36/50)
Theta flicks his gun setting back to single shot while stepping forward to the strangely immobile droid in front of him after seeing Hawke miss his shot at it. With a soft *clink*, he puts the barrel of his rifle up against the casing of the droids head. "Dodge this." the Mandalorian says without emotion before pulling the trigger once, causing a fountain of sparks and plumes of smoke. If a battle helmet could smile, you would swear that Theta's was doing so right now. He turns to look at his companions and just nods his head slowly in reaction to their looks at him.

Swift Action- Switch gun mode to single shot.
Move action- Move to P3.
Standard action- Fire critical hit shot at droid #1's head!
Tomalor snaps out of his trance, and, realizing where he it, bolts for some cover. His droid fires two shots in quick succession at #8, but neither finds its target.
Devan, though, was a better shot than Aitch, albeit armed with a lighter weapon. He stepped forward, fired a single shot, and destroyed #8.
Deciding that they'd had little success trying to pick off the heroes in groups, the three remaining droids concentrated on what they percieved to be the most dangerous target, and all three took shots at Kacela. Two missed her easily; the third must have been rather lucky; it came at her square on, and she was unable to deflect it with her lightsaber.
Round 6
Always trying to keep herself between Devan and the droids, Martina stepped forward and got off a nearly perfect shot at droid Y, knocking down its shields further and doing significant damage beyond that.

From his cover, Tomalor let shot a blast from his pistol, it giving an odd hum due to its personalization. The red droid continues its barrage, giving off a joyful mechanical tune as it shoots the same target.
Kacela curses inwardly and clamps her mind down around the pain...isolating it away from her body so it wouldn't interfere. These droids were tougher, but worse, they were smarter. Even a Jedi would have trouble deflecting shots from three different directions like that. The Force guided, but the body had to be fast enough to follow through.
There is no emotion; there is peace.
With some effort, the Jedi seeks calm. Losing focus now would only get her killed. The momentary anger falls away, and she can feel the Force filling her. Suddenly the war droids seem very small indeed.
Kacela lifts her left hand towards the droid to the west and makes an almost casual gesture towards the one to the north, keeping her lightsaber ready to intercept incoming shots.
OOC Quickie: Kacela succeeds; Y is severely damaged and has no shields. X has minor damage and its shields are slightly weaker. Also they're both kind of on top of each other in H6.
Sianni is about to give Devan Ijatsi a mouthful for running off just like that and almost jumping into her line of fire when something else catches her eye.

Preening like a little dancing girl! After the most demeaning wolf whistle she can manage, Sianni grins broadly as she yells at Theta. "Not bad, but next time I want the lap dance I paid good money for!"
Not waiting for an answer she fires on the bigger droid closing steadily.
