I got lucky, aced it first time with a +10. :D Glad you could finally join me!




Oops. I forgot to consider if blasters work underwater. Come to think of it, I might've had a special underwater blaster rifle then. But I'm using my fancy DC-17m ICWS, and I guess it does everything.

Where are we posting at for Awakenings and You are Worthy? It's not rpol? All the settings and themes are different.

That was

That was me causing confusion by setting up lots of different labels and title. Post in the open thread.

Lyla, I had hoped you would order me to not kill the fish people for their deception.

I presumed that was rhetorical and you didn't seriously intend to threaten them. But anyway, I've edited my post to include a small intervention.

It’s open to discussion but I’m of the opinion that firing starship weapons at the cave and the likely collateral damage and loss of life would be a moderate Dark side transgression. I’m an arbiter only and this is not intended to sway your choice in anyway, however I didn’t want to award any character a Dark side point without first giving due warning.

What collateral damage and loss of life could there be? There's been no mention of a settlement nearby and I presumed we'd moved far enough away from the cave mouth for Anyar, Iych-thae, and any others to be safe. Lyla would not order it if anyone was standing in the blast radius, and accounting for the increased range and pressure underwater. Maybe we could add some kind of warning to get them to move further away?

But these guys are dicks and they need to be taught. :|

The Rebels swam away from the Anguillans and the visiting Ithorians, leaving them at the entrance of the cave.

Ugh. They would still find a way of obstructing us, wouldn't they? Maybe some warning shots would clear them out? Anyway, what do the rest of the PCs think? Am I just going mad?

So, Lyla... Do you like how I used your own words? :-)

Well, if it's a good line, steal it! :D

What is the plan?

I thought it might be worth a refresher.

The Rebels mission was to rescue the Gray Griffins and secure any new worlds for Radell, in exchange for supplies from Radell to help in the war effort.

The various factions they have encountered to bargain with, overcome, aid or hinder them in their mission of industrial intrigue have been;

Imperial Mining Ltd or IML

Star Dragon

The Scourge

Iych-thae and the pilgrims of the Mother Jungle

Slythor

Anguillans

The Imperial base!

How you plan to use any knowledge gathered or connections made is up to you...

At this point, I feel a bit lost or like we're done here. We had three aims. The primary aim was to rescue the Gray Griffins, and we've done that.

The secondary aim was stopping Chalmer Trilili and the Scourge. We hoped to find them here and didn't, and now the trail's gone cold. Do we have another clue for tracking down the pirates, another planet to visit? In any case, we have severely damaged their operation.

A tertiary aim was to secure a world for Radell, this also seems to be a bust. One, the world is inhabited, not free for the taking, I hope. Two, this doesn't necessarily involve taking on another Imperial sea base. It might be smaller than the last one, but we're stretched thin, have plenty more enemies, and no one knows we're here. I want to be sensible about it: if we try it and get caught/die, the Rebel Alliance will never find out about it. We should return, report it, get more intel and resources, and see what needs to be done about it.

As for the other groups, we haven't encountered IML yet, but presumably they're enemies and in the Imperial base. The Star Dragon seems like a random encounter, and we can't find it again or do anything with it that we know of. Slythor we've got what we can out of and have burned bridges with. Iych-thae and Anguillans were impossible to work with. The Gray Griffins might tell us something new, but they haven't really said anything since we rescued them, so maybe they need a proper hospital.

So, all I can think of is returning to Elrood to report in, get fresh intel, rest up, and find some way of dealing with the pirates' interdiction field. But I'd welcome a better idea.

I agree wit you totally. There is nothing to go on until more information becomes available.

What you do is entirely up to you.

I will remind you however that you were not ordered to do anything with the pirates.

Your orders were twofold, rescue the Gray Griffins and secure any new worlds for Radell.

The first you have achieved, the second is in the balance. This is a mission of industrial intrigue.

We were not ordered true, but the company was losing ships to the pirates, and we were supposed to help the company. So...

Just to clarify, the base is a space station correct? You said it was in orbit.

No. The Base is a floating Base on the ocean.

This isn't something we can just fly over and bomb and shoot until it sinks, is it?

You can try. Chance of success? The base's armaments include a Turbolaser and a shield generator, also where there's an Imperial base there's always Stormtroopers and TIE fighters. Some sort of sabotage or subterfuge might be more likely to succeed.

So what's the plan? Are the Rebels staying in Alluuvia or plotting a hyperspace jump, if so where?

It looks like we're done here, so back to Elrood.

Groans at Lyla

Really Lyla? Make it so? Am I Westly or Data now?

As long as you're not the redshirt, you should be fine. :D

LOL!

Any other actions?
