Base damage for a lightsaber is 6. I think a shoto is 5. That said they have a quality that means they basically ignore 10 points of armor/soak. So given the fact that most people have a soak between 2-4 they sorta have a base damage of 8-10.
The Shoto also has Accuracy 1 so I add a boost dice to all my lightsaber attacks. Luckily I took the Ataru Striker training or I would be useless with this thing still.
I know -- a crazy roll. I think I over-allocated skills to Vigilance for them, but my source book is at home and I'm in California (or on a plane) 'til 10 tonight. So we'll roll with it.
Phantom -- I did minion damage wrong. you did 11 points of damage to a minion pool of 15. that means you dropped 2/3 of them and wounded the third. updated the narrative to fit.
generally when it comes to minions and lightsabers, I'll try and give you a sense of their wounds/soldier in the future so you can choose to embellish the outcomes based on your rolls if y'all want. :)
I have 9 strain left, and 6 wounds left. Having to count backwards since my character sheet still will not let me put '0' in my current strain and current wounds boxes.
