The trio of stormtroopers who'd been playing cat-and-mouse with Rico continued moving southward around the ziggurat. There was enough cover to hide from them so long as they continued circumambulating the ziggurat and didn't break off to investigate the southwestern arm of the temple. The whine of speeder bikes sounded like they were combing around the southernmost arm of the temple complex, yet unclear whether the speeders were equipped with sensors that had a fix on your party's position.

A sleek dark walker, some 8 meters tall, was momentarily visible clambering through the thick shadowed overgrowth, several hundred meters away, but then it was swallowed up by the rainforest shadows and the thundering of its legs on the ground suddenly fell quiet. Wherever it had gone, there were only moments before it would be on top of you. [GM]A few action possibilities... Rex can make a Difficulty 2 Computers check as an action to pinpoint the AT-FRC walker whose reading has grown exceedingly faint on his scanner. Anyone trying to pinpoint the AT-FRC walker's location can make a Difficulty 2 Perception check as an action. Right now everyone has cover from the stormtroopers to the north. You can automatically switch that to cover from the walker, but that'll reveal yourself to the stormtroopers. You can attempt a Difficulty 2 check (possibly Stealth, possibly something else fitting the situation) as an action to find and move to an area of the amphitheater providing cover in both directions. Someone could make a Difficulty 2 check (possibly Perception, Vigilance, or something else fitting the situation) to locate another archway or door or anything exiting the southwestern arm of the temple.[/GM] [img]http://i.imgur.com/ML1lUuP.png[/img] [/QUOTE]
