Seeing the troopers mounting the hill, the droidekas both open fire with their cannons, raining down terrible fire on Booth and Hammer.

Results

Hammer is hit 2 times for 19 /2 = 9 -2(DR) = 7 and 18 /2 = 9 -2(DR) = 7 for 14/91*

*Sorry, Stefan - I miscounted the range and so the attacks would have been at PB instead of Short and thus not had any penalty, but instead have gained the Point Blank Shot bonus.

Booth is hit 2 times for 17 /2 = 8 -2(DR) = 6 and 14 /2 = 7 -2(DR) = 5 for 11/89

  Can I get a shot at the droidekas?

[Stefan]

 Fair enough, i'm still winning on the damamge scale for the moment. Can Hammer see the B-1's yet?

The burning sensation as the blaster fire from the droideka above was a special feeling that he'd learned to love and hate over his years in the army.  It nearly brought a tear to his eye but at the same time it brought the adreniline that he could use to carry the battle.  He droped to his knee, not from the pain but to brace.  Although the others couldnt see, at malicious grin broke out across his face as he returned fire.


Fire on the same droideka he hit last time unless Mitts kills it first, otherwise fire on the second droideka.

Can Hammer see the B-1's yet?

Yes, Hammer can see the B1-P2 platoon. It is a total of six B-1 battle droids, with two b-2's as support. Longshot can also see the platoon running across the open terrain. The remaining team cannot see the droids due to obstructions.

I have edited the map to remove the former shadowed ruin - as I never really had any idea what to make of it. I was thinking a downed ship, or a burnt out structure, but then decided its easier to just clear it off the map.

[tomcat]

Can I get a shot at the droidekas?

Yes, based on your character's position on the map, he is 4-squares from the wall of the first tier and does have line of sight (based on my ruling above needing to be 4 squares away from the wall - remember the overhead map squares are considered two each at 3 meters instead of 1.5).

[Posterboy]

 Doug, just checking on the hits that the droidekas made. Wouldn't Hammer and Booth both sustain no damage because none of the droidekas' shots actually beat the troopers' REF defenses and both troopers have the Evasion talent?

[tomcat]

Oh crap... yea, you are right. Dude, I missed the Evasion talents. I might as well open the doors and let you guys walk in now! 

These damn droids won't be able to hit crap. I will remove the damage.

[tomcat]

never mind, not so bad - Hammer an Booth are the only evasive ones and Martel has delect. So, the droids can be a bit of a threat.

[Callowmoryne]

  doug if  i use my entire round to run towards the squad how many squares can I move

[Posterboy]

Booth ducked as he felt two bolts of hot laser fire pass over head. Their aim's improving... that was close!

The sergeant heeded the Jedi's words, shooting the synthecable dart to find a hold on the next cliff ledge. Sliding his arms under the commander's, Booth hit the switch and began their next climb.

"Haywire!" Booth commanded through the comm. "Get yourself up here quick. Longshot, you got that sniper offline yet?"
