[ooc: Craig...would using a FP to concentrate and slice records be considered a heroic use since I'm doing it to save the senators?]

I'm not going to pre-declare use of force point as heroic - that is very situational and context is critical to that determination.

Is there anything Trax can do to help Nim down?  Someone's a little concerned about the DC. :)

Oooo, boy.  Unless any of us have blaster rifles, I think the stormtroopers are all out of range.

Darren, sure you don't want to prep for the jump?  Unless I'm mistaken your MAP for resisting the dark side is in play for all rolls so you'll lose 1D on the roll.

Okay, IC post being amended again.

Then I'm glad I mentioned it.  Last thing we need is almost half our team injured before the fun even starts. :)

That's the danger of one-trick ponies... a relatively minor hurdle can seriously blunt your amazing skills in other areas. :)

Hey!  Trax knows 2 tricks, how to shoot AND how to dodge shots!  Call me a one trick pony... :P

I need a quick refresher, are the increased DCs to hit for range categories added to the targets dodge roll?

More CPs could help flesh out those other areas . . .  ;D

A thought on the jump for our wet behind the ears jedi, could you use the concentrate power?  You'd likely only end up with 1D extra on the roll with MAPs, but 1D can make a big difference.

I already asked, and it would mean that I wouldn't be able to do anything else that round.  Including Dodging.

True.  But Trax and Ch'lana have the troopers attention, and Trax is closing with them as they are with him.  I doubt they'd switch to a threat that's further away before dealing with one that's closing on them.

2D in alter is the better deal for doing climbing jumping

As someone who has no real clue on force powers, how so?
