[QUOTE="DarkCrisis, post: 9674467, member: 1788"] [HEADING=2][/HEADING] Wanted to run a Firefly style game set in the Empire Era. Well we had our first session. A group of Mercs just trying to stay flying. The first adventure is basically the Tatooine Manhunt adventure with some changes here and there. PCs: 2 Mando Bounty Hunters (Thanks Disney) 1 Gungan Kid. Force Sensitive. (played by actual kid) 1 Dathomirian Failed Jedi. Trying her best to teach the Kid. 1 Treadwell Droid that mostly stays on the ship for repairs and piloting as needed. Before we start, their ship a Mon Calamari Wander Class freighter was once owned by Jabba. With no other options they agreed to buy it from him at high interest. Thus they are indebted to him until they can pay off the bill (which never seems to lessen). While recovering from a mission on the planet Kwent the players are contacted by their broker Brock the Twi'lik. He says he has a hot job for them nearby and the contact is desperate. They agree and head the space station nearby to meet "Dana". Upon arrival they go to the meeting room and find Dana dead on the floor and one imperial officer and 2 Merc over her body. [IMG alt="Entering Star Wars GIF by Disney+"]https://media0.giphy.com/media/M8IuuVazK0l9dWsjuD/200.gif[/IMG] Blaster fire rings out at they trade shots. One of the Mercs tosses out a grenade as the Imp Officer quickly finds a burning hole in his chest. Eventually the Mercs are slain with only one wounded Mando on the Heroes side. They run over to Dana and grab her data pad. Also, steal the weapons off the dead Mercs. Always nice to have a spare Blaster. They hightail it to the ship and blast off just as the alarm sounds and the bay door seals shut. Unfortunately 2 TIE intercept them and they trade fire as the Droid tried to spool up the Hyperdrive and lay in some coordinates to anywhere but here. After 4 rounds and only a slightly damaged TIE they speed off into Hyperspace. [IMG alt="star wars GIF"]https://media3.giphy.com/media/lHF5rbg9TYqDS/200.gif[/IMG] Taking some time the Droid cracks the security on the pad and finds out that Dana was a Rebel Spy and an Old Republic hero has been located on Tatooine. If he could be convinced to join the Rebellion it would give them a much needed boost. Dana also mentions the Imperials have the same info and will soon be headed to intercept him as well. They have in the mean time offered a large bounty that every Hunter in the system will be after. The group sets the ship to the target and will arrive in 24 hours. ---- Once they arrive the land at Mos Eisley and begin the search. First things first the should head to Jabba's Town House and pay a visit and make a payment. The streets are very busy. Obvious Hunters everywhere also seeking info. The group stops to listen to preacher about a Bantha Religion and offers them a flier to a meeting outside of town. The Kids takes it. They soon arrive at Jabba's house but he isn't in. Probably at his palace. The guards contact him and he tells them it would be wise to not seek the Old Republic Hero as they will likely end up dead and they still owe him money.
