Right.
Right.
I think
Vance is handling a fight in another room. Solo.
Maybe
Reese is backing him up. I hope so.
Cap'n
Kolene is shooting any key target she can line up. Keeps giving instructions to Spook. Some of those instructions are about the doors.
Davish is bleeding. Not okay. Needs some first aid. Nobody available.
So'Zen Al Saba just faceplanted under heavy crossfire. He's clear across the battlefield, I cannot get to him super fast.
My combat sense faded down under the strain. I have limited effective time remaining in this fight before we get overwhelmed.
I need to start eliminating directions of threat.
Right after I get out from under this heavy droid.
My new parishioner is Zam Ello, and he says he'll convert if I will protect him from an ex-Crimson Dawn enforcer type named "Voodoo". Ohhhhhkay sure.
On the plus side, Vance got the Dark Troopers to shut down. And I think Reese has control of the base exploder AND all the door locks.
There's a Devaronian working in this place named Heth G'vanek who is
A
mazing
when it comes to bo kata. He is an expert in Zama-shiwo. When we'd exchanged a few moves, So'Zen and I stopped dead to exclaim enthusiastically our admiration for his form.
It was not difficult to take that conversation over into finding out the terms of his contract. The necessary modifications to the stolen weapons have not been specified. All he has agreed to do is to watch over these farmers to ensure they make "modifications" to these weapons -- at the end of which, he gets the other half of his pay. No problem for us. We direct the farmers to make the modification of detaching the power packs from the weapons. Put all the power packs in one box, all the weapons in another, bring along both boxes.
Also So'Zen confiscates that other gunship as a transport. And gives bounty hunter Arthal Kale custody of the fighter that was parked in the base's hangar.
When we land, while Davish and I await our medically prescribed yelling fest, Hicks and Vondromas arrive with somber news. There's a place called "Chausid Station" where some Republic Troopers got attacked by Killian's pirates. The Troopers' weapons misfired and knocked them out of the fight. Chancellor Kanter needs to take it back but does not really have the forces to do so by strength. Hicks says he thinks a small Commando force could sneak in and get the job done. We compare some notes with So'Zen before confirming that yes, I will go. (Davish can work on returning the _Shenanigans_ to Vorbaize and get our shuttle back.)
Everyone else signs on to support this plan. I appreciate that a lot.
