You can hear the loud echoes of heavy weapon firing and multiple sounds that can only be TIE fighters. A second later, two large, twin-pod TIE Bombers fly out over the sewer, heading out off the cliff in front of you and looking ready to wrap around to head back.Looking out of the sewer more carefully, you see that the area to the left, where your transport was set down, is clear. On the other side, though, you see chaos. In the sky, a fireball falls to the ground, with the two X-Wing fighters streaking past after two of the normal TIE Fighters right behind them. There are multiple large scorch marks in the ground that could only have come from the TIE Bombers, likely explaining the heavy explosions you had heard. But there is another problem, much more immediate and much closer.Just off to the left, two large Sentinel-class Imperial troop shuttles are on the ground. There is a huge outpouring of white stormtroopers from one of them, all heading your direction but at the same time spreading out as if searching. But from the other, two large AT-ST scout walkers have emerged. They are quickly making their way through the lightly forested area, coming straight for the sewer pipe, their heads turning side to side as they slowly scan the area.After carefully having his own look out to what is going on, Arik pulls back into the sewer pipe and says, "I didn't think we were worth this much effort. My men can help put down some covering fire. Where's your ship at?"Flight Group:((Dol's attack against TB1 is a 30. Hits and deals 73 damage. Another boom.))The X-Wing streaks forward, shots from the four laser cannons arching in towards the nearest TIE Bomber. All four hit, piercing the solar panel and seperating it from the rest of the fighter. There is a half second where it falls from the sky in two seperate pieces, then a flame erupts from the mid section of the bomber and it fireballs down to the lake below in a bright flash.((Va Dien flies forward then attempts a Tight Half Loop to face T1. Pilot check on the stunt is a 30. Just barely makes it. His attack against T1 is a 29. Hits and T1 takes 61 damage. Its down.))Va Dien's X-Wing shoots forward, away from the pursuing TIE, before half-looping around and rolling to re-orient the ship. Now, flying straight at the surprised TIE Pilot, Va Dien fires off a quick burst of shots from the X-Wings laser cannons. The shots hit the cockpit dead on, detonating it immediatly and opening a path for the X-Wing to fly through instead of colliding.The remaining TIE bomber continues its long loop around, this time heading straight for the downed assault transport. It also seems to be ignoring the fact that the two X-Wings are easily shooting down the other fighters. The remaining TIE l/n streaks past Va Dien's X-Wing, still staying on Dol's tail and letting loose a quick burst of green laser fire.((Attack against Dol is an 11. Horrible miss.))The shots go high, firing off into the blue sky above and disappearing.</blockquote>
