[SWSE] Strike hard for the Adamant!

"It is not looking good up there," Chase says as he takes a brief respite from the mission on the ground to look at the battle going on in orbit above, watching the explosions in the sky. "Let's hope that's all theirs," he adds.

Chase looks around the cockpit of the vessel. "All right," he says as he gazes at the droid hookup. "There's definately an astromech around here somewhere,", he states to the others around him. "Now, where is he and is he the one we need to be looking for?"

The ARC trooper leaves the cockpit and heads towards the nearest cargo holds of the transport, looking for the droid.

Sonja nods, "Hmm, maybe. Let me check."

She closes her eyes again and reaches out with the Force to look.

no astromech droid found. The console isn't the pilot's seat, btw.

Sonja opens her eyes and calls after the disappearing ACR trooper, "Chase, it's not here."

Looking at their squad she asks, "Who's the pilot?"

ooc: I'm not sure we have a pilot, per se. Mostly combat builds. It's a transport, though, so while the Falcon is amazing in combat, I'm not sure it needs someone with, like, Jedi Ace levels.

Anyone who wants could work it. One of the clones could drive, i suppose, though they're NPC mooks and won't do much that isn't required for plot reasons (ie: if you need to escape, you escape; if the ship gets captured, it does; if the engines fail and you crash on a planet... etc.)

IC:

One of the clones steps up. Sir! All of us are fully trained to pilot vehicles for you, sir!

Looking at Khor, Sonja waits for him to give the orders. She has been really more the hired muscle of the Jedi duo, figuratively. After all she doesn't strike an imposing figure, more like eye candy until the light stick starts waving around in a fury.

OOC: OOC: Is there a local scout still with the group?

ooc: Okay, if we're going to do this game I need you guys to increase posting. I have this game, an M&M game, and a 20th level Pathfinder game that I'm running. They each take creative energy. If you're going to use some of it, I need some from you lot. This isn't TV, it's interactive.

Moreover, I need some direction for where you're going to go.

The reason I ask is that you could either go through the streets as planned, or take the ship directly there.

The Ship: It's way less subtle, and you'd get all the attention of all the droids in the city. That means you'd get to the site of the shield generator, do whatever you're planning on doing, and then (if not before) all the droids in the city would be after you.
Also, you'd get the ship shot up; can't say if this includes it destroyed, I don't know.
Either you could give up one clone to pilot it, or get Adara to pilot it (I suppose she's there to facilitate this sort of thing). Or you guys could turn this mission into a piloting mission.

The Streets (ie: no ship): lots of stealth and dodging patrols. You'd sneak in like we did this building, blow up the shield generator, then you'd have to make it to the Ion Cannon to save the fleet.
The droids would converge there also, so you'd have to stealth through the streets again (with a higher difficulty to stealth this time) to get to the Ion cannon. If you get attention, you'll fight at least one patrol before you get to the Ion cannon, if not more.


If you guys have a different plan, I'd love to hear it. That's what this game is about: come up with ridiculous plans and do them. Like, go to the Shield generator but leave a Clone here, then signal him when the shield is down to pick you up. OR you could pilot over to the generator and shoot at it from the air until it explodes (not saying how heavily armored it is). Or crash the ship into the shield generator. Or try to disguise yourselves as separatists and sneak in.

I need someone to be decisive. It can't be me, I'm the GM; if it was, I'd be an author and we'd be in chapter 8 by now.

An idea springs unbidden into the brain circuits of z3r0. "We cannot fly this thing to the shield generator. It's too obvious. Let's leave the best pilot of the clones here, and make our way on foot. Once the shield is down, the Druids will be distracted and and then the ship can swoop in and pick us up."


OOC: I may have been thinking something like that already.

Chase looks at the droid that's speaking. He shakes his head, annoyed that he had ignored the obvious. "That's right," the clone says as he looks around the ship at the others. "A YT flying about this area would be far too obvious to the Seps and we'd be shot down quick. At least we've secured our way out of here, though." He points to a small number of the clone troopers. "You all stay here and make sure that this area is secure. The rest of us should be making our way to that shield generator."

Chase scans the crowd again. "Any objections?" he asks.

Sonja nods her head as the plan seems reasonable. She is ready to move out with the others.

OOC: @GM; Still not answered, is there a local scout still with the group or not? I was also waiting on Khor to participate since he was acting like more of the leader of the group.
