So you have the four envelopes and datapad from the officer (along with whatever equipment ya nicked). Heading anywhere in particular?The Last Ambush

Bast glances back again, speaking slowly and cautiously, "It doesn't. Those soldiers were just... misinformed. Brainwashed. If there was another way..." He stops, biting his tongue and reconsidering his words.
After a moment, failing to think up anything that might be consoling, he simply puts a hand on Ishala's shoulder and says, "This isn't going to be easy. We're saving other lives, though, and the Empire wouldn't let them go as quickly as those troopers went."

Ishala smiles sadly at him, "I know what we're doing is right. But the day it becomes easy? That's what I'm really worried about." She looks around. "We need to stash this stuff. Do we go back to the clinic or find a new hidey-hole out here?"

"I am reluctant to take any of this back to our safe locations without checking it for tracking devices" C6 says as he starts to take a better look at the datapad "Hopefully we can get some details from here of where these payoff's were intended for"
OOC:
Ok, I'm rolling to crack this with 2 Int and 1 computers....anyone with better in either want to assist in the skill check?

Bast pulls up his sleeve once again, idly checking to see if he can spot where he was hit. As he does, he speaks, "Good idea. Give it a quick once-over, but they won't need a tracker if they come looking here. Lets keep walking at the same time."
"By the way, those envelopes... can I see those?" Bast asks, stepping over to whoever has them and pondering the numbers. Maybe his time in the Empire might help him crack the code...

C6 nods at Bast's suggestion to move, starting his examination of the datapad as he moves.

Ok just gonna make to check based on my skill then.....ooooofffffff, that could have been better!Last edited January 4, 2017 9:04 pm

Looking over the envelopes reveals very little other than the first two envelopes are sequentially numbered and the others are not. There doesn't even appear to be a correlation between the numbers and the credit amounts contained within.
Trying his luck with the datapad C6-9K does his best to bypass the security and just when he appears to have it beaten the entire pad shuts down. Try as he might he can't restore power to the device. Two immediate options spring forth to the droid:
Mannies' Tech-o-Rama: A store which sells and repairs standard technical devices. They are known to be Empire friendly, however.
Slicer's Paradise: The crew here is pretty good and specialize in repairing more obscure devices. While not known to be Empire friendly, they're not known for participating in illegal activities either.
With the sun risen, yet still low in the morning sky, you all arrive safely at Galactic Family Medical.

The tension leaves Ishala's shoulders as she leads the way inside.
OOC:
Can I give the datapad another shot?Jan 6, 2017 9:01 am
OOC:
You might want to upgrade the check with the light side token we've got, doesn't look like we've got any good options if we can't crack it ourselvesJan 6, 2017 10:13 am
Ishala flips over the datapad, peering at the back, "I think its just...here!" She grins in triumph as the screen comes to life.

I stand in the main room, hands clasped behind my back. "That could have gone more smoothly. What happened? What do we need to do differently?"

"When we started these ambushes, we had the element of surprise," Bast explains, laying down a large piece of cloth. "We certainly don't have that anymore. We're going to be expected every time, just like we were expected this time." Bast begins to take apart his rifle, laying the pieces onto the cloth and wiping each one down meticulously. "The fact of the matter is that we are only four people," He goes on while he works, "And four people with limited funds can only do so much against the Empire."
Bast clicks his tongue, sounding somewhat annoyed, "I kept on with this because we were getting good intel that gave us an advantage. If the next message just says, 'Same old, same old; good luck,' then I think we should consider it carefully before running off to fight some Imps."

C6 looks at Xin for a moment before responding "Your feelings on the subject of lethal force may need to be addressed. We are working towards the goal of fighting, and ultimately defeating, the Empire - the more often we leave their forces alive the more they will learn about us and our tactics and will be able to develop effective countermeasures." he pauses for a moment whilst considering more data "That aside our operation achieved it's objective with minor injuries on our part. Dependant on what is contained on the data pad we may also have gained more valuable intel in addition to the payments I highly suspect were destined for Imperial collaborators in towns I would count it as an unmitigated success"
He sits in a corner and pulls out a small, improvised toolset and starts to try to repair the fairly obvious blaster wound on his chassis

Ok, I'll be rolling 2 yellows to try and 'first aid' myself with mechanics but the difficulty will be 3 purples due to me doing it to myself (adds 2 purples) so anyone got a halfway decent mechanics score or Int that wants to help a fella out and have a crack instead? :)Last edited January 7, 2017 3:33 pm

Ishala notices C6-9K getting out his tools, and walks over saying, "Here, let me help. It's hard to fix yourself up."

Thanks :) Right, that leaves me on 2 wounds, can we say that the advantages are spent to make the damage/repair as hidden as possible rather than spending them to get strain back?load next
