I was thinking about putting a couple-few grenades together and using TK to loft it inside a leg joint.

Oh wait, scale...would a lightsaber or even the grenades come close to hurting that thing?

Grenades?  Probably not, unless you popped the crew hatch and tossed it inside.  A lightsaber might have more success, but I think Collan only brought his training saber.  And using any blatant display of Force skills?  We'd have to kill all of the Imps before they had a chance to get a message off.  Can you imagine what would happen if one of them squawked, "There's two Jedi here!" over the Imperial comm net?  Uuuu-glyyyy!

Saaaaaay . . .  I wonder if there's any fuel stores left in the shuttle . . .   ;D

Something like that, but we'd have to be well clear of the blast radius ourselves.   ;)  I was originally thinking of improvising some kind of remote to ignite the fuel cell, but that would require A)  There IS a fuel cell still aboard, B) Anything I could jury-rig to ignite the fuel cell manually, and C)  Time enough to do it.

AT-St are walker scale, so scale factors would come into account.

Picture, for reference.

You could always surrender and look for an opportunity to escape after the fact.

Surrender is not an option for Collan. It’ll bring Darth Banen here right away.

But if that AT-ST starts firing on the shuttle you might lose a medic or two.  The blasts don't even need to penetrate the hull, just enough to rock the shuttle and have something fall on Trina is probably enough to do her in.

One of you might have to play rabbit and try to draw most of them off.

Hmm. Not a bad idea. I wonder if I could get healed up a bit. I could play rabbit really well

A reminder that a scout walker can move at 90 kph, and has the following weapons:  Twin blaster cannons (4D vehicle damage), twin light blaster cannons (2D vehicle damage), and a concussion grenade launcher (3D vehicle damage).  It's likely gonna have enough juice to shred what's left of the shuttle in 1-2 salvos, and unless we have a lot of forest to play in, it would run circles around us if we tried to bolt.

What's the terrain around us like?  Anything that could slow that walker down or impede it's field of fire?  And . . . any remaining fuel in the shuttle (or failing that, some other volatile combustibles?)

I wonder if I could destabilize the ground near the crash site such that the walker has one leg on solid ground but another in far too lose material. Would its systems be able to compensate?

Darren...we need to takke out that walker somehow or abandon Trina. The latter is not acceptable so the former seems to be our best choice.
