We wake up in jail and are taken to holding. A dashing human is waiting and then a guard rushes in to get the Captain’s attention. Behind him, we see Shree approaching with a cadre of battle droids. Dizzy claims he is our lawyer and we are released into his custody. Greelo starts some legal claptrap and Doc Fuzzy makes a call to the Beer Baron. Silar whispers that he isn’t Silar and I insist we get to our ship with the outlaw tech and get to the bottom of it. Our beer run is still a go and apparently, the dashing human has smoothed things over. We invite him and Jangir and the captain to go with us and Silar on the beer run. Jangir and Silar are going with us. We get to the ship and the Captain offers to fly her own ship and lay a false trail and meet up later. As we start to board, Silar breaks down and confesses that he and his brother created the concept of Silar Mins. Then suddenly people start showing up to kill them and claiming they had done things that they haven’t. They had split up, but his brother was not at the rendezvous. We handed him over to the concierge and Jangir is also shown to a room where he can babysit. I head to my quarters to clean up and carb up as I apparently had a berserker moment on the station and you never sleep well in jail.
We are on the trip for four or five days and Arthur checks over the plan for the hibernation units the clone troopers are trapped in. He thinks he might have a plan. We arrive in system and are in the middle of an attack on the station. There is a transmission and we are told that the Black Hat pirates are after the whiskey we are here to transport. We respond and tell him we are here for the shipment and will be happy to assist in the defense on the station.
Apparently, there are 15 hodgepodge ships cobbled together from X-wings, and Y-wings, and Tie fighters. Shree is our overwatch and tells me to fire on the ships that Vader buzzes. As we fly into the group targeting the dock, I draft behind Vader getting ready to fire. Suddenly my telemetry data changes to show that the fighters are ex-military. Vader takes a shot and then I fly above him and shoot at a ship on the right. The ship on the left fires thrusters and turns around – missing my shot and has all weapons pointing at us.
Suddenly the two ships flip and combine to make a single ship with double shields and weapons. I decide to bypass them and fire on the group ahead of them. I take out one of the trios. It fires back and a hit takes out my shields. I manage to dodge the rest of the hits and send Charkarr to get the shields back up. Behind us, a capital ship warps in and a couple of groups of ties peel off of the hull. We hear a message about us being meat bags which rings a bell, but then I get back to dodging and lose the thought.
Dizzy comms that they are droids that appear to be determined to destroy humans. She convinces the Black Hats to side with us – at least until we take out the droids. We agree to give them some chip they want if we find it inside our delivery. I turn to fire on one of the droid groups but they have insane dodges – must be nice to ignore human body needs. They also appear to have some sort of extra cannon ports around their gunnery ports. I fire again and then have to dodge like crazy as their capital ship opens up on the station.
