RE: Nightshade: Return to Karvis III

[Trax]

Yeah, I just meant in regards to what happened to her after arriving on Karvis.

[Niil Spaar]

Ah!  Serves me right for not reading the post properly.   

[Trax]

I probably should have clarified.

[Trax]

Very nicely worded Ben. 

[Nightshade]

Aww, shucks.  Thanks. 

[Trax]

That is one detailed dossier.

[Nightshade]

Aye it is, and I like it.

How much time do I have from arrival til when the party starts?

[GM Craig]

less than 30 min

[Nightshade]

Couple questions to be sure I understand the layout properly...

1. Do I have a clear line of fire to the snipers from my current position?

2. If so, are they covered by the droids, meaning if I take them out will the droids see it?

3. Could I get the vehicles to crash into the area where the troops are or are there too many walls/structure to make that viable.  They could make a nice distraction that doesn't risk rebels getting shot at.

[GM Craig]

1. No, they are below you. You are still on the stairwell. You can see them through the grating floor, but don't have a clear shot.
2. The pair of droids are only covering the lower stairwell. Depending on how you get off the stairwell, they shouldn't see you taking out the snipers.
3. There's debris and machinery in the way, but it's possible to get the escape vehicles to overrun two of the trooper positions. The other two are behind structural supports, and the techs are in the back corner.

[Nightshade]

Are the pairs close enough together that I might be able to drop from above and reach both with a melee attack in the same round?

[GM Craig]

Possible. You'll likely be able to kill two, but odds are against you that you won't be spotted doing it.

[Trax]

With the snipers down maybe take out the techs and monitor the rebels escape. That way you can launch your attack just before they get there. You might even be able to use the surveillance drones to try to contact the rebels.

[Nightshade]

That is a good idea, Ken.  I will try that.

[Trax]

Do you have any grenades?

If you can at least disorient as many of the troopers as possible it'll buy the rebels a few valuable seconds. Or, assuming they all have their comms on and open, would there be a way to send feedback or anything through their comms?
