While Zom sat staring into the forest, his eyes wandered to a fragment of stone that lay almost buried beneath the ground. On closer examination and upon removing some of the dirt that covered the stone, a faded mural could be seen on the piece of rock.
From what the Duros could pick out, there was a large temple surrounded by two smaller temples. In the larger temple, yellow fumes appeared to rise from the sides of the temple walls. Likewise, yellow fumes rose from the sides of the smaller temples but converged with the fumes from the larger temple to create one large fume that disappeared into the sky. While hard to see since the mural had been partially destroyed, small figures seemed to be looking up at the fumes as they reached into the heavens.
Zom peered to look closer at the mural as the darkness seemed to close in. However, that was not all that closed in upon the scouting party. Something lurked out in the dark.

As if on cue, a cold wind blows over the temple as dark figures come rushing out of the trees. Eerily, their advance is quiet except for one blood-curdling scream that comes from the lips of one of the figures. They rush over the ruins of the temple towards the relaxed scouting party.
Zom can see multiple dark shapes form into human figures. Even in the dark of the night, he can make out some features from a quick glance. Their hair is brilliantly white, and their skin looks as if someone lashed them with a rake. Onward they came as Zom's eyes grew wider.

Having rushed forward, a few of the strange figures stop. Whirling sounds are heard as leather bands are set swirling in the air and come hurtling towards Zom and Kikli, the ones most visible.
Also, I neglected to mention, there are four sets of three minions all at medium range. Two minion groups have used their action to throw bolas and then used their maneuver to grab javelins.
Also, the trip wire Tark set up was those two boost dice Zom had when he made that perception check. Just to let y'all know I didn't forget that.
OOC:
Five damage on Zom since the bola only has a base damage of 3. They miss Kikli. Ah, no advantage. Otherwise, I could have ensnared you guys.

Zom lets out a startled Yelp as the bola strikes his arm. He immediately jumps back behind a broken piece of temple.
Hey guys! We've got incoming! Zom cautiously draws the new imperial blaster pistol he picked up at camp. He steels himself for a moment, then pops around the corner and takes a shot at the group.
But his shots go wild, flashing past the natives harmlessly. The crimson bolts do make the attackers hesitate briefly, giving a small window of opportunity.

Ketta quickly digs into his back pack, rummaging through its bulky contents. He pulls out his Luma Flare Launcher, pointing it High into the night sky he squints and pulls the trigger.
With a "fwooop" the flare left the barrel of the launcher much slower than required for a healthy launch. The launching rocket motor sputtered and fizzled. The accidental splash in the river earlier must have compromised the powder charge. It only reached the height of about 2 meters in the air before the flare began burning. It was bright, much brighter than the fusion lantern. It started its descent immediately and landed a short distance away from Ketta. It clicked and clacked on the rubble stones as the flare hissed and burned with a fervent brilliance.

I'll spend my advantage to give a boost die to the next PC turn (as long as you can work it into a narrative)

At the sound of the bola whizzing past him, Kikli's ears perk up as he reflexively draws his blaster. Peeking at their attackers from the encampment he smiles. Field work. Aiming towards the denizens as they approach, firing shots at what he hopes is a vital area (the head).
His smile widens as his shot hits true (to the best of his knowledge), he shouts out: Rokarr get up, you simply must try this!

With the bolas flying through the air and the Duros quickly scrambling out of the way, the forest denizens advanced again. One group lets fly a hail of javelins at the slightly bruised Duros hiding behind some rock.
The other group, seeing the impact of a flare of light, set their sights on the Squib.
The javelins flew in the illuminated sky as Zom and Ketta felt pain as the sharp objects found a mark.
Zom receives 6 damage with Pierce 1. Ketta receives 8 damage with pierce 1. Ouch. They had a setback to attack Zom since he was behind cover.
By the way, y'all weren't going in initiative order for some reason. It doesn't really matter since I retconned it but Kikli wouldn't have had a setback thanks to Ketta's flare and his difficulty would have only been 1 since the baddies advanced closer.

Blaster fire began to whip through the night as Kikli aimed his blaster. As the javelins came down upon Zom and Ketta, one of the javelin throwers clutches his shoulder and falls back slightly panting as blaster bolts hit him.
Meanwhile, Tark has rushed forward. The other group of javelin throwers, caught off-balance by this move are unable to counter right away. The Gand's pole-axe swung around and caught one of them in the stomach. Grunting in pain, he fell to the ground unmoving.

Blaster fire scorched through the wild natives. The one wounded by Kikli was felled quickly by a smart shot from Rokar. Soon after that, his comrades felt the brunt of blaster shots from the gunslinger as the second fell dead while the third spun as a shot hit him dead as well.
OOC:
The only thing you forgot was that the difficulty was only one purple die (and one more because of the two weapon penalty) since you were firing on short range. So I disregarded that extra die that you rolled. Also, the damage was 9 and 8 since you add the successes to the damage. But you leveled those blokes taking all three out.

Seeing that the intruders were made of sterner stuff than they first anticipated, the natives' eyes began to smolder.
The group of figures who had thrown the bolas rush up with axes raised high.

The two minion groups who had thrown the bolas use a maneuver to get out their axes and their action to move into short range. So there is one group engaged with Tark and two who are rushing up and are at short range.May 21, 2018 11:54 pm
Seeing the rest of the attackers approaching the group, Tark's eyes narrowed behind his helmet. Taking a moment to determine the pattern of the attackers, he stepped up his attack, seeking to end the fight as soon as he could.
