Making this because we should have one and I just wanted to put some things down for clarity.

1) I messed up my first post, and fired on you guys forgetting that I couldn't attack first turn.

**This was sorted out on discord and the shots were ignored which is as it should be.​

2) There are four mercs hiding behind supply crates and whatever at the front of the cave. It reads that Arianna walked right in and past them. I'll ignore this since my first post was super confusing since it got messed up. I will be continuing my post from the point that Arianna begins to approach the cave with the others.

Sorry for prior confusion everybody. It'll be much more clear from here on out.

I apologize for my last few posts. I feel like i've aided in the confusion going on.

No problem. A fight like this is bound to be confusing. I'll do my best to make each merc's action clear in my posts and if we need further clarification we can use this thread to do so.

Everyone mentioned 'approaching the cave' but didn't specify distances . Below is a very crude map of how I saw things to be positioned in my turn.

@Lucid

Map looks okay, just to clarify that there are four Sith Troopers out in front of Arianna and it seems that Shizuo stated in his post that he is walking along side them. I’ve also mentioned there are some crates and rocks which can be utilized near the front for the Sith.

I think that’s important so that there are some obstacles in the way of shooting and the Mercs don’t have directly clear line.

The Sith troopers are fine. They're just there doing whatever Sith troopers do. I can't edit my post since it's a storyteller post and it looks like I missed that detail so congrats, free move for Sith troopers. I apologize there's a lot of people and bodies in this thread and it's already hard to track. I do however, have issue with your mention of cover. The cave is the domain of my NPCs.

From your post it seemed that you were already inside the cave. See here:

Arianna nodded towards Arnen's words, continuing to track slowly and cautiously in the cave, her cloaked form blended well with the ample darkness provided and remained out of visual detection. The path would be behind crates and rocky formations

That couldn't happen. The Mercs are right at the front of the cave at the entrance. For you to be inside you would have had to walk right past them. There would be no crates and things out in the open. Perhaps some rocks, but you guys are literally just walking toward the cave at this point. Nobody gave any indication of being in cover outside the cave.

I understand, but just so we are clear due to the confusion in the beginning, we are taking it from the point that the Mercs are out in front under cover and the Sith are approaching in towards the cave? Arianna and Shizuo are not behind the Mercs, correct?

I can accept your cover argument, that is fine.

Shizou is slightly behind them. The Merc's aren't a wall and Arianna was described by someone as being out in front. So that is what I went with.

@Lucid

Wait, Shizuo cant be behind the Mercs as per your diagram. It shows them all out in front of cave.

I don't understand. As I said in discord, the NPCs aren't an impenetrable wall. The Mercs who took shots at Shizou, Arnen and Artarion shot in their general direction as suppressing fire. The only PC who took direct, aimed shots was Arianna because she was said to be at the head of the group.

Yup, that’s fine. Just wanted to make sure we’re all on the same page.

Now that combat has begun, each side has 48 hours I believe or does each player have 48 hours?

Who is up to post next?

 

[Lucid]

Whomever.

This next round will cement posting order.

@Lucid edited to note that the flying kick was to happen after the Force blast.

@Gian Greydragon @Faded Truth @Critas @Cainhurst Crow

Ok, so I've read all your posts a number of times and I'm sorry to say, I can't make head nor tail of the actions taken. Some are clearer than others but for the most part I would like to request clarification of each action taken by each person.

 

[Faded]

Sure

Arianna Marris has five shots coming towards her, two from H1 and 3 from H2.

She dodges towards the ground to her left, rolling to a crouched position with a rocky outsprut providing partial cover. Lightsaber is ignited with that movement and she shoots a force blast towards the crate that H1 is behind with the intention of knocking the crate into him.

As for the five shots that came for her, she dodged the two from H1 with her movement. The three from H2 hit a Sith Trooper that was standing between her and H2’s blasting trajectory.

Let me know if you need anything else. @Lucid

 

[Critas]

Artarion used the force to flip a container on top of H3. He then ran to cover on the south side of the cave mouth.

@Gian Greydragon @Cainhurst Crow

Guys come on. I can't post until you clarify your actions.

Im sorry i dont know why but the tag didn't send an alert.

Shizuo blocked the surprsssing fire and ran 15 meters to the wall that you drew the cave having. He gathered up force energy to preform a force leap, up to H2's crate cover. He stabbed through it, hopefully hitting H2 on the other side, and allowed the gravity of him falling back down to cut H2's cover, and hopefully H2, in half. He landed on his feet and took a defensive position against any other incoming fire
