Mission 1 Gameplay

I notice that Rava and a pirate tech have engaged in communication with the droid, so... leaving Garmen, I point out that

the droid supposedly contains information about a Corellian Support Frigate which might be hiding in the asteroid field. I don't know if it's a big deal, Ilon hasn't mentioned anything, but you never know.

I look at Cale and say "Yah thats what we need." I then look at the droid and say "We need all information about a Corellian Support Frigate that you have." while looking at the info I say to the tech "hey thanks for the help.. your a good man" Once we get the info I try 1. to get the info and send it to Ilon or 2. I use the ships com system and tell Ilon what we have found so he may use it.

Noticing that the sensors went dead, I tsk irritatedly... I plug in Sellia and mutter to myself:

Well, that just wont do will it...

I'll use a force point and use Sellia in attempt to speed up the time it will take to get the sensors running again.

- Cale - You inform Rava of the information that you need,

the droid supposedly contains information about a Corellian Support Frigate which might be hiding in the asteroid field. I don't know if it's a big deal, Ilon hasn't mentioned anything, but you never know.

- Rava - Turning to Cale, you respond,

Yah thats what we need.

You then speak to the droid,

We need all information about a Corellian Support Frigate that you have.

The droid whistles and some writing, and a schematic appear on the datapad. You thank the tech for his help,

hey thanks for the help.. your a good man.

You read the datapad: the information it shows is a schematic of a Corellian Support Frigate with some red highlights crossing the port shield system with the fire control system. Some text below the picture indicates that over time there have been problems with the shields losing power on the port side, so the shields have been connected to the fire control system to provide adequate power. In the battle in which the droid was captured it was discovered that excessive strain on the port shields can cause a power failure in both systems.
Having the information that you were looking for, you use the intercom and inform Ilon of the Frigate's weakness.

- Garmen - You get slightly annoyed at your technical oversight, and plug Sellia into the computer while muttering,

Well, that just wont do will it...

You gather all of your concentration to focus on the task at hand and speed up the sensor reinitialization process. The difficulty of speeding up your work is very difficult. You must beat 28 to successfully reduce your time by half (two and a half minutes), if you beat 35 you will cut down the time to one minute. Your Computer Programming skill is 6D+1. You get a 2D bonus for using Sellia, and spending the force point brings your total to 16D+2. You roll 62.
You work as quickly as you possibly can, editing the sensors root file, and reinitializing the system. You must keep working on the system for the next 2 rounds.

- Kylin - You continue to fly into the gap, maybe the asteroids will afford you some cover if you get some distance between you and the frigate.

- Ilon - Rava relays some vital information to you through the intercom (see the olive coloured text) while the two pirates in the cockpit settle into the gunnery chairs and attempt to familiarize themselves with your ship's guns. Your sensors are still out. You can see a ship emerging from behind an asteroid and attempting to block your path.

- Ka - After hearing the relatively good news, that the frigate has a handicap on top of being shorthanded, you continue to try and give confidence to those around you.

- Athena - You sit next to Nagta, who continues to play with his claws. You try to stay comfortable.

- Camon - Having seen the laser fire ahead you move into a looser formation to make it harder to hit all of your ships at once. You see a ship trying to block your path just inside the asteroid field. You see the frigate just to your right, and an asteroid on your left.

- Nagta - You continue to play with your claws. There isn't much you can do at the moment, except wait it out. The news that the frigate has a weakness is good to hear, but you don't show it.

The next post will be Saturday October 16.

I continue to work on the sensor root file, humming softly to myself as I do so, unaware of the situation and glad to be working on a computer again... WIthout realizing I say outloud, but quietly as if Im talking to myself:

People can be so bothersome and irritating sometimes.

I am going to pull a 180 turn and take up a flanking possition on the crusier. I am also going to open a channel to the crusier and send the following message.

"To unidentified crusier, power down your weapons and lower your shield. You are hear by instructed to surender your vessel. Any failure to meet this order will result in your total desturction.

I will open fire as soon as I am within medium fire range with the Laser Canons. As soon as I reach point blank, I will fire a volly of Proton Torpedos.

on a secure chanel to the others:

"Razzor, get your self and the codes out of here, myself and the fighters can hold them off and cover your escape."

thinking to my self "job well done " I will now go to the front of the ship with Ilon and stay out of his way (just want to see what is going on) and offer any help I can. If Ilon does not want it then I just sit and watch events unfold

I notice that Rava has gone to the cockpit, and left Garmen un-supervised, so I get up and stand directly behind him, watching every move he makes.

Having done everything in my power to help, I sit back and relax, mentally preparing for the next phase of our mission.

My internet got an error just before I was about to post, and I lost everything, so I'm giving you the condensed version. Sorry.

- Garmen - You sit there working on the computer and you mutter to yourself.

- Kylin - You bring the X-Wing around in a difficult maneouver, so that it's facing the frigate. You fire your lasers, but they don't cause any damage. As you close you fire torpedos. They strike the hull where the engines attach. The frigate is heavily damaged, and lurches downward in lazy spin, slowing down as it goes. You will crash into the frigate if you don't do something quickly.

- Rava - You go to the cockpit to see if Ilon needs help. He's looking at his sensor display puzzled. You see a flash ahead of you and the frigate begins to lurch and slow down, one of the engines flies off away from the rest of the ship.

- Ka - Having decided that Garmen alone is not beneficial to your health you watch him like a hawk.

- Cale - You sit back, focusing on the next leg of your mission.

- Nagta - You wait for the jump to hyperspace, or the feeling of lasers impacting on the ship.

- Athena - From your angle you notice that the pirates don't seem to like being unable to fight for their own survival if need be.

- Camon - You continue on your current path as one of the frigate's engines floats under you, preparing to make a pass at the damaged side.

- Ilon - You see that the Nav computer won't calculate any exit vectors as long as the sensors can't detect potential hazards. You see the frigate lurch and slow down, but it's still a threat.

The Next Post will be Thursday October 21.

With the Frigate disabled, I am going to pull up and return to my orginal system exit vector

Ghost [PX] · Post by **Ghost [PX]** » Tue Oct 19, 2004 5:32 pm

Still working on the sensors.

[Fallen]TSB · Post by **[Fallen]TSB** » Wed Oct 20, 2004 10:42 am

I look at Ilon and say "is everything all right?" and then look outside and say "looks like we dont have toi worry about them anymore"

[PX] Nebuchadnezzar · Wed Oct 20, 2004 12:09 pm

I continue to watch Garmen, and give a calming sense to the rest of the group.

[PX]IronFist · Post by **[PX]IronFist** » Thu Oct 21, 2004 12:27 am

I give Rava a cocky smile
"That's a shame, I was looking forward to a good fight. Just make sure button boy doesn't hurt my ship...I'd like for all systems to be up and running for our escape"

I try the sensors again to scan the corvette to make sure it is disabled. If the sensors are working now, I will also start the nav computer calculating again on an exit vector.

I then speak to my gunners.
"Our Jedi has been kind enough to inform me of a weakness in the corvette's shielding system, concentrate all fire on their port side as soon as we are within range."
I manouver the spray through the asteroid field and attempt to make it out the other side, on the way I try to swing close enough to get a volly of on the corvette's port shields.
