As the situation transitions, obviously, from negotiations to combat, Wes fires upon the officer in charge, whom had been talking with the Commander.
OOC
As per my notice in the OOC, I'm heading out to PaizoCon in about seven hours...so, if need be, the GM should feel more than comfortable NPCing Wes, as needed, or assign someone to do so. I'll check back into the thread, ASAP, but it won't be for 15 hours, at least, since I'm driving the 8+ hour drive in the morning.
Rosa curses as a shot is taken at the Imperial officer, knowing that any second the entire bridge will erupt in blaster fire. She aims her blaster pistol at one of the war droids and fires, hoping that none of her team is killed in the fray.

Storm was almost pleased. He enjoyed combat, as much as he disliked admitting it, and as most of their opponents were droids there was no need to hold back. Storm pounced at closest wardroid that wasn't dealt with by the other jedi, slicing an arc through the air with his blue saber.

The officer quickly ducks out of the way from Wes' shot (modified 19 MISS), and the firefight begins.
Istara calls upon the force to disrupt the inner workings of one of the droids, but it looks like the large war droids are very heavily built, and it doesn't do much damage. (UTF roll = 21, 13 DMG unless you want to spend a force point), then steps back behind the bulkhead (move to J22).
Khyber stays back, guarding Saricia (move to M23).
Zenith leaps at W1 (move to M19), but the war droid is a bit more agile than its size might suggest, and she misses (MISS on a modified 16). Storm has more luck with the other droid (move to J19, HIT on a modified 23, 11 DMG).
W1 and W2 each bring a hulking metal fist into contact with the Jedi facing them (both HIT for 9 dmg). W3 moves to give the officer cover, then fires a burst of fire from each of its repeating blasters, one at Rosa and one at Wes. Fortunately, the accuracy is poor, and it misses with both shots.
The officer shouts some orders to the droids, but stays behind cover.
Rosa takes a shot at W2, but misses. On the other hand, when Wes fires his rifle at W1, he badly damages the droid.
Saricia keeps working on the panel she hacked at to open the lock; no one knows what she's doing.
OOC: I inadvertently had Storm go too early in initiative order.
"Spread out," Rosa orders as the blaster shots begin to fly, seeing that her troops and the Jedi are already begining to do so even before she speaks. She takes a few steps forward (J-21 to J-19) before lining up a shot on the war droid ahead of her (W3). "Concentrate on the larger ones, they're the biggest threat!" she adds.
Okay, used my Move to move, my Standard to fire. I'd like to use my Swift to activate Born Leader. Actually, let's use the Swift first, because I don't know if Saricia and Istara would count as Line of Sight after I move.

OOC: And the last of round 1 stuff that I forgot...
The techs and utility droids try to keep working or hide behind their consoles. The smaller (but still roughly human-sized) battle droids take shots at anyone they can get a line of sight to. Six of them miss badly, Storm deflects one shot casually with his lightsaber, and one hits Zenith.
Istara ran forward to get a better view of the room, disagreeing with Rosa's assesment of the danger, but not enough to cause her to disobey. Reaching out with the force as she ran, she sent out a wave of force energy that was intended to enfold the War Droid she'd attacked earlier and send it flying at the one that was acting as a shield for the Officer.
"Bowling for officers." she mutters with a grin
[Actions:
Move: Move to K17
Standard: Move Object on W1 to throw it at W3]
Istara hurls the badly damaged war droid in front of Zenith into the one shielding the officer, rendering the droid that was in front of Zenith useless, and damaging the one in front of the officer as well.
She bolts after the hurtling hulk of the war droid as it towards its brother, never slowing even as it slams into the other war droid. Even as its battered and wrecked body falls away, she follows up that impact with the flashing arc of a lightsaber swing!
(move to K13 and attack W3 with lightsaber! Also, use Negate Energy on first energy attack that hits in the round, and spend Force Point to absorb healing from it.)
Kyber continues to guard Saricia as she tinkers with an access panel.
Zenith runs up, and takes a slice of electronics out of W3 (a 26 hits for 10 pts of damge) leaving it in less than great shape). Unfortunately, that brought her in range of the droid's huge steel fist, which didn't go well for her (a 30 hits for 11 damage).
The other droid slid back a meter and a half, and then filled a cone that should have included Storm, Rosa, Wes, and Khyber with flame. However, the jet of flame was aimed high, and all were able to dodge or duck the full force of it (an 11 misses, so half damage = 8).
With the droid he was taking cover behind heavily damaged, the officer slips out and takes a position next to the other large war droid, before tossing a grenade at Rosa and Wes (a 25 hits for 17 damage).
"Oh Sithspit," Rosa curses as the frag grenade explodes, severely injuring her. She falls back behind the wall, near the door and rests. (If I fell a step on the CT, I spend two of the three swifts needed to move up.)
