Ran 4-26-2010 Exp = 3050
Rogue squad was sent in to access the abilities of the AA guns. That resulted in one member being shot down and rescued later.
We landed on the planet with only the whistle so we could get closer to the cantina. We battled two zombies then a small army of droids. We found one single non zombie on the scanner and decided to make chase but were sidetracked when we found a zombie. After the fast battle with the zombie we eventually tracked down a nine year old human female. She led us underground to avoid the zombies. While scanning we found an eight story high apartment type building with large amounts of people on every floor but the 6th. On the 6th floor there was a mixture of zombies/people. We were able to convince the people we were there to help and had another epic battle with a huge force of zombies. For story purposes we found two force users that were fighting the zombies on the 6th floor.
Due to lack of time out of game I decided to hit the ultra fast forward button and advanced us to the final battle. The two force users led the survivors through the sewers to the transport and the prime. We used the sewers to sneak into the cantina and fought the final battle on the dance floor. We watched a sith spirit (that we’ve never seen before) enter Tier and take him over. It was here that we learned that the sith spirit was behind everything and had the prime bugged with security equipment and he had taken over the nuclear bomb we were going to use to destroy the planet. Tier had a dead man’s switch and a fiber cord attached to the detonation device. Tier then convinced us that he was an ally trying to work against this sith spirit. Another EPIC battle ensued with us winning with one Dashade escaping. We used the sewers again and got back to the Whistle and took off with a zombiefied Edgar and a possessed Tier. The planet was nuked and we went back to Yavin.
Personal Notes: I really wanted to give you guys more choices on the matter but with the forum RPs I just wanted to kick some ass in combat. Once again we have the debate about force grip, but I think we worked well to resolve it. If grip can get around shields then it is truly broken. I like our resolution. I was thinking about the same situation with move object, but that problem is easily resolved by just using move object on the shield and then the object inside the shield goes with it. I’ll have to post on some other forums to see how they handle force powers vs. shields.
PS - Everyone is now infected in the group.

760 EXP For jolietgaming.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=swfrp&action=display&thread=268The Race for the Cure RP – Rage and Angelina went playing around in the jungle and got separated. Rage fell into a lair that prompted Rory and Sabby to feel he was in danger. Rage then started to fight a terentatek he later got help from Angelina. Rory and Sabby were delayed by a sith mutant massassi that turned out to be an illusion. Rory and Sabby split up due to sensing Rage in two different locations. Rory was the first to reach Rage to help against the Terentatek. A hard fought battle took place with Sabby showing up at the right time to force lightning the Terentatek weakening the beast enough for Rory to get the final blow. We returned to the Jedi temple and the New Republic created scouting parties to patrol the jungle, one didn’t return and we went to rescue them.
Rory's Yavin Mission: No thread created: Summary: Angelina, Rory, and Anakin went to search for the missing New Republic troops. They found two terentatek in which they battled to a gruesome victory. Sabby’s Yavin Mission: jolietgaming.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=swfrp&action=display&thread=274Summary: Sabby and Ktygaavh found Rorg wandering around in the jungle. Rorg took the team to a temple where the NR soldiers were being held. Entered the temple to find a replica of our council chambers, but the place looked like it hasn't been used in many years. Sabby took one tunnel that transported him to some maze where he found a pelt. After getting out of the maze Ktygaavh said that Sabby was only gone a few minutes but for Sabby it was at least a day. Sabby's translator device in his lightsaber caught fire. It was later determined by Fenrir that the device was sent a massive download to it overwriting its current files. The troops were rescued and the team returned to the Jedi temple. Rage's Yavin Mission: jolietgaming.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=swfrp&action=display&thread=275Rage was sent with Luke Skywalker into the jungles to find the lost new republic soldiers. They ran into a Verpine named Jibby Yo (who became Rogue Squads new mechanic) that accidentally killed off 4 out of the 6 new republic troops. An A5 Juggernaut with 20 troops appeared and Luke, Jibby Yo, Rage, and the remaining two new republic troops engaged. The 20 stormtroopers and the remaining new republic soldiers fell and the juggernaut got away. The troops were rescued by Sabby and the team returned to the Jedi temple. 760 EXP per person.......
The group got a total of 1520 for the Race for the Cure RP and the Yavin Rescue missions.

Played Sunday June 13th 2010 2678 Exp -
The New Republic dispatched a fleet to Maridun due to the fact that the New Republic feared The Empire would not return the Lurmen they took as slaves. The mission was to engage the enemies over Maridun then sneak down to the planet to restore our honor in a ritualistic battle called a takital. The reason we lost our honor to the Amani was Pemi accidentally wandered into the current takital. Once our group landed on the planet we were taken to the Amani leader known as a lorekeeper. During the conversation with him Rage was able to mind trick him into thinking we already went through the takital. The lorekeeper believed that the takital was over, however his guards did not and proceeded to tear him into two. The one guard declared himself the new Lorekeeper and the takital resumed. The group dispatched the small group of storm troopers there and the Amani fled. We picked up the upper half of the old lorekeeper (He was still alive) and he agreed to show us the way to the ship. On the journey we had to cross a lake, repair a bridge (where we killed a rival lorekeeper, took his staff and jewelry) and climb up a cliff. Once up the cliff we found the ship, broke in, and found the plant. We were then transported off the planet and made the decision to destroy the crippled Star Destroyer.
The New Republic Fleet consisted of the following
A Mon Cal Cruiser - The Pinnacle – Severely Damaged The Prime – Severely Damaged The Skyfire - Heavily Damaged The Whistle – Lightly Damaged Sabby's Ship – Moderately Damaged Corvette #1 - Victorious – Critically Damaged Compliment of fighters (12 from the Pinnacle) - The Griefers 11 Fighters lost including Raynold Hart Corvette #2 - Acheron - Destroyed Compliment of fighters (12 from the Pinnacle) - Starlight Avengers 10 fighters lost. Corvette #3 - Eagle Ranger - Destroyed Compliment of fighters (12 from the Pinnacle) - Hellcatz All 12 fighters were lost including their leader Hell Cat Rogue Squad – Heavily Damaged Estimated death total: From The Pinnacle: Officers (400) Enlisted (3125) Passengers 1,200 troops (All Died in the Takital – They were transported down in Shuttles) Total = 4725
Corvette losses: Crew = 250 Troops = 600 (All Died in the Takital – They were transported down in Shuttles)
Pilot losses 42 (Some where Y Wings)
Losses on the Prime Crew = 15 Troops = 50 (All Died in the Takital)
Total Estimated Death Total for the New Republic = 5682
Imperial Losses Estimated death total: Interdictor Cruiser: Crew: 2807 80 Troops (All Died in the Takital – They were transported down in Shuttles) 24 TIEs Total = 2911
Star Destroyer Crew = 37,085 9700 Troops (All Died in the Takital – They were transported down in Shuttles) 72 TIEs Total = 46857
Total Losses = 49768
Etula Losses 6 YT-1300 60 Deaths including Boorka
Amani deaths: Unknown
The reasoning behind the losses is simple. Dan decided to have the fleet take out the interdictor first. Once that was out of the way it was a 1v1 fight with the Mon Cal and the Star Destroyer. The reason the Mon Cal was victories was that the Corvettes were stronger then the YT-1300s. The larger fighters for the Empire brought down the New Republics overall numbers. This brought down the two Corvettes and disabled the third. This really left a damaged Mon Cal, two damaged Corvettes, and The Prime against the Star Destroyer. I was surprised at the amount of people on a Star Destroyer.

Ran July 25th 2010 2548 exp (My Method was higher)
I'll post some more about the game tomorrow. If anyone has any comments about the game let me know. I want to try to make the games enjoyable and I appreciate feedback. I couldn't remember some of the rules.
I've forgotten about this. Things I remember, we met Khel, Boba Fett poisoned Tuxani (which later killed him) at the celebration of the contest held against the droids, discovered Taea, we found some refugees, let fett get away.

Game Ran on 8-19-2010 2500 Exp
Things of interest: Finished up the loose ends of the forum RPs. The green light was a light side Jedi (rather clumsy) who informed us there is a spirit war going on between two sith factions with the light side standing by in the middle. Khel was able to get the Dr to defect to the New Republic as well as capture a lot of data on the secret weapon the Empire was producing.
Rage beat his addiction to death sticks and is now a Jedi knight in title and power.
Tuxani has died from the poison and his successor is Rem. Rem decided to allow the refugees that were escaping to Jyrova to create a colony named Remiik. That colony has become a haven for crime and the local security forces are not equipped to deal with the corruption. We are asked to provide security for a week while the new republic sets up their own protection for the colony.
We met up with Pemi and Taea (whom I keep using the wrong mini for) and get a quick tour. On that tour we meet up with the Defel and Noghri we met before. That conversation gained us their trust as they told us of an underground passage between the bar and landing pad.
Khel met up with some old friends er at least people he has done business with (one notably named Jed). To make a long story short Rage drank a pangalactic gargleblaster really fast, got drunk and passed out. Where Jed decided to charge people to paddle Rage's bare ass.
A small distraction at the local shop (Rory bought a T shirt, I'm with stupid that had a spinner on it).
That night a popular lounge singer named Lola was to perform. Her set went off without a hitch. A half an hour later Rory (who was patrolling outside) saw some light in the forest. The light was investigated to be Lola and the bartender Tony getting it on. That was interrupted by two large Covu that really had an interest in Khel. Turns out it was the grenade Khel had. After the group got rid of the Covu by throwing and setting off the grenade we all heard a single blaster shot back at the cantina.

Ran September 4th. EXP = 1500
The second day of our security posting at the colony of Remiik we were asked by Dr Vik to capture a Covu.
Long story short, we did and a sith that was buried under some dirt.
Things of interest: When someone has an anti jedi grenade the Covu seem to ignore stun damage against them. On a side note Pemi hopes that the locals don't endanger this creature by having such easy means to dominate it.

Ran 9-8-2010 2748 exp
The 3rd,4th,5th,6th day (day 7 NR security was taking over) we questioned the locals. Day 6, Khel's ship arrived. Rico was the prime suspect in the death of Tony. He was rather uncooperative but decided to throw a party at the bar. The party was a ruse for him to escape. While on patrol with Pemi, Rory was ambushed by eight junior sith. Rory called in Sabby and Rage as Khel went into the smugglers passage after Rico. At the end of the smugglers passage Khel found a waiting thermal detonator. On an act of awesomeness Khel was able to toss the grenade down the into the passage and escape (at the cost of a destiny point)
Rico was able to escape into orbit and the Prime wasn’t fast enough to disable the ship. Kahn showed up with Rem as we raced to the whistle to get our ships from the prime to chase after Rico. We decided to go to a diner to chase after Rico. The diner was the more logical choice after Fenrir was able to plot the best possible route on that trajectory.
We got there and the locals were very receptive towards Khel due to his recent work helping the poor with the plague. Even to the point where the bartender/owner gave his “hush” money from Rico to Khel to be used for more cure for the plague. We got the information to where Rico was. It was an abandoned but for one person who happened to be Rage’s brother who he thought was dead. Rage’s brother apparently fell hard to the dark side and was very deformed. He asked Rage to help him which Rage interpreted his brother’s request was to kill him due to his brother standing like when Obi Wan was killed by Vader. Rage’s brother thanked him for freeing him then gave Rage the password for the computer system where we found the secret location where we captured Rico.

Game Ran on 9/18/2010 Exp = 2167
First off I just wanted to say that this was probably one of my worst games run in a long time. There was really nothing to it; however the Empire Forever part was very enjoyable. There wasn’t any substance but just two battles. The first battle was well played out and leads us into the Empire Forever scene which was fun and started out good. I think the problem with the second battle was just not enough going on and I was tired as hell. I was caught a little off guard the entire night and did not have my A game. We honestly didn’t have enough time if I did pull out the A game. For example we were rescuing the female Jedi, so I knew we were going to have to fight to get in. It was late already. From here do I have us RP some situations in the forest (which I would have done if we had the time) or just fast forward, here is the battle lets go. I did option #2. Not the best option, but within our time restraints.
As for the game:
We were sent to a base to rescue the female Jedi. The council members were going to go with us, but I decided that with that many players it wasn’t a good idea. The council members went to visit that light side cavern instead. The first encounter was with a group of Savrips. They were the ex bodyguards of Rico whom we just recently incarcerated. They were mad because they are out of work and wanted to attack us. With some clever RPing we convinced them to work for us; they only agreed if we proved ourselves in combat. The rules of the battle were simple anyone can surrender (so no one gets killed) by saying “Empire Forever” and the ones left standing win. Rage’s brainwashing had him acting goofy but we won the battle and hired the three Savrips. The purpose of that battle was to test the Savrip build I created. Rather then RPing the events in the forest I decided that we got some intelligence and a recon photo of the base that the female Jedi was being held prisoner. The group decided to charge, we battled, I got tired, and the bad guys surrendered after fighting was taking too long. We rescued the girl and went back to town.

Game 10-30-10 Exp = 2427
We met up with the Jedi council members in the light side cavern with the light side spirit Heek. Once there we found out that there are some alters that we can use to trap the sith spirits on the planet. Rory tripped and dropped the music box that was picked up by Joel’s character. Once Joel’s character picked up the box the box started to glow really bright and compartments started opening. It was determined that this box was the key to the master “ON” switch for the alters. We then went to a pep rally type thing held in Lanemi and lead by Rem. Rem was claiming he was the chosen one spoken of in the prophecy. Jarepi singled out Joel’s character from the crowd and order her guards to take him into custody. Rory, Sebastian, and Joel’s character went to find out what the senator wanted. It turns out she has a photograph that is over 300 years old and the image on the photo looks just like Joel’s character. After that we fought and defeated the Empire on their final advance on the locals. During that fight there was a few groups of non jedi force users that have taken an interest in the planet. We befriended the Jenesari, captured a witch, defeated some felucian shamans with the help of Jtraw and the new Etula. Geoff’s character also rescued a downed pilot who hacked into the Empires network giving us a layout of the planet with all the imperial forces shown in red, New Republic in blue, and unknowns in yellow. We are now en route to the alters.

Ran 11-6-2010 Exp 3000 (+406 for Geoff)
Things to know: I am going to be referring to a device as an “Ipad”. This device was a computer terminal that was hacked by a New Republic pilot that shows the exact position of all the people on the battle field red for the Empire, Blue for the NR and yellow for unknown. There were some red dots that would just vanish, they were all droids. When someone died the color would blink rapidly then vanish.
Our mission changed a little because the Luke heard we befriended the Jenesari and sent the Jenesari of the Tiger Clan (no one bothered to ask) to an alter. We were also backed up by Jean Claude (Another Dan – Geoff’s friend) whom was sent by the council for reinforcements. Our mission was to travel to the master on switch with our new Jenesari (of the Falcon Clan) friend.
We made a stop to save some locals from a few storm troopers and dark troopers. The troopers got the drop on us because we were no longer cloaked from the “ipad” device. During the surprise round a dark trooper knocked over one of our two speeders. We defeated all but one dark trooper whom Sabby proceeded to strip and take his armor. That dark trooper was allowed to escape into the forest and we repaired the speeder and re hacked the “ipad. The locals were so grateful they gave us some stew that healed our wounds a little.
The next stop was an imperial check point guarding a bridge. We snuck up as best as we could but where spotted by the enemy AT-ST. A battle broke out and we defeated the imperial forces guarding the check point. PoW (Geoff) was able to turn off the electric gate so we could get through. We encountered three Jenesari of the Tiger Clan whom Nathan’s character identified as not being very nice guys. After a sensational persuasion attempt by Jean Claude the Jenesari of the Tiger Clan joined us. We still didn’t check to see which clan was sent to the other alter.
We followed the path and got to a very large cliff. Our speeders couldn’t get up the cliff and there was no way around. There was a near by imperial hanger that we decided to break into, defeat a few technicians, and repair a shuttle. Once the shuttle was powered on we started showing up as Red on the “ipad”. We decided to hack the ships computer to turn off the transponder codes for the ship. All that did was attract the attention of the Empire and the new republic. We ditched the transport and climbed to cliff. Once on top of the cliff we were able to capture and ride native horse like creatures to a very large valley. In the valley was the two sides of the sith war. Darth Plagueis on one side Emperor Palpatine on the other. They went back and forth (verbally) at each other for a while and the only thing of importance was that Plagueis said he was controlling Tarkin and they have something that will bring the Empire back to its glory but with him in charge. We were able to sneak around the battle that ensued.
After that we got to the alter and got the password to get in finding the light side force user and Sabby turned on the switch. We were able to get all the stations active but one. The Jenesari of the Tiger Clan destroyed the one alter allowing Darth Plagueis, Emperor Palpatine, and a few minions from each group to escape.
We returned to hq and got medals and freed the planet.
We are to escort Mon Mothma and Princess Leia to Coruscant to sign the official papers for the official surrender of the Empire. We are all expecting a trap.
