Skirmish ROGUE LANCE: AMBUSH AT ANAXES [THR/LS vs. GE - OOC Sign-Up/Coordination]

[Kylass Starhaven]

---

ASTEROID BASE DEEP-ECHO IV in the ANAXES ASTEROID BELT has served as a covert JEDI ORDER listening-post and allied smuggler’s station since the DEEP CORE fell into the hands of the GALACTIC EMPIRE.

The fall of ARKANIA and its neighboring systems to the Empire endangers the Asteroid Base’s secret supply lines and escape routes from Imperial Space. JEDI KNIGHT AIDEN PORTE travels with JEDI LIGHTSWORN KYLASS STARHAVEN, and her ROGUE LANCE STRIKE FORCE, to assist in Deep-Echo IV’s evacuation.

However, the IMPERIAL NAVY has finally discovered this eavesdropping operation and has dispatched an IMPERIAL BATTLE SQUADRON under VICE ADMIRAL REMUS ADAIR to capture Deep-Echo IV before it is fully evacuated. Rogue Lance and their allies don’t know what’s coming. THE AMBUSH IS SPRUNG! NOW THEY HAVE TO ESCAPE!​

Set Up Breakdown:​

Tales of the Lightsworn: Rogue Lance - Ambush At Anaxes is a Space-Combat and Close-Quarters Combat Story-Driven Skirmish taking place across TWO OBJECTIVES in Asteroid Base Deep-Echo IV and the surrounding Anaxes Asteroid Belt.

[MAP OF ASTEROID BASE DEEP-ECHO IV WITH FACTION STARTING POSITIONS. CORRIDORS DENOTED ABOVE ARE PURELY FOR ILLUSTRATION]

OBJECTIVE 1: BATTLE FOR THE MANGLER (Starfighter Dogfight and Capital Ship Attack Run)
​

Accompanying the IMPERIAL BATTLE SQUADRON is an attached IMPERIAL PATROL LINE commanded by the IMPERIAL INTERDICTOR-CLASS STAR DESTROYER THE MANGLER.

At the beginning of the Skirmish when the Imperial Battle Squadron arrives The Mangler deploys its gravity wells and effectively locks in the Rogue Lance Strike Force’s ships.

Allied Jedi Forces and Rogue Lance must engage the Imperial Battle Squadron and Patrol Line and disable or destroy The Mangler in order to allow all allied vessels an escape-vector.

OBJECTIVE 2: FIREFIGHT IN THE DEEP (Close-Quarters Combat inside an Asteroid Base)
​

Meanwhile, inside the ASTEROID BASE DEEP-ECHO IV, allied forces must contend with an Imperial Landing Party that offloads a swath of IMPERIAL ASSAULT PLATOONS, led by the DARK LORD’S DARKSIDE ELITE, into the Asteroid Base by overrunning a side-entrance in HANGAR BAY 2.

Allied forces must hold off the onrushing Imperial Stormtroopers to allow the Base to fully evacuate from the MAIN HANGAR BAY and allow for the scrubbing of data-banks and removal of communication arrays from the OPERATIONS ROOM.

Between the Imperial Assault Platoons and the Main Hangar Bay is a WARREN of corridors, side-rooms, and storage spaces, ready for allied ambushes and crossfire. This is a gritty corridor-to-corridor, room-to-room, and hangar bay-by-hangar-bay close-quarters fight. Sabers and blasters will echo down the halls of the Asteroid Base.

Antarian Rangers?

 

[Casi Braste]

I'll be there at objective 2, open to any duels or small unit CQB.

I'd be down to do either of these, or both? Casi will lead some infantrymen into the station, but she's a duelist primarily if you're looking for a fight.

 

[Mykel Dawson]

Casi Braste

Awesome, we can transition into dueling and leave the unit fighting to the background for flavor.

 

[Kito]

Will be there on obj 2 for some duels :3



can fire work in space?

 

[Jared Starchaser]

Anyone need flight lessons?
Object 1

 

[Balun Dashiell]

Would like to sign up for Objective 2, and will be bringing the ol' Task-Force Rebel Dawn along for this one!

 

[Sylith]

throwin' down on whatever objective I'm needed, fite me

 

[Marcus Karrde]

Heyo is this still open for sign up? I would like Objective 1 if it is.

 

[DT-7747]

Objective 2, and a guest appearance may also arrive, depending on how things play out.

 

[Reiner Ghadi]

I am already listed as my pilot Soontir Barvel , but if anyone needs a dance partner I can also bring my Dark Side Elite character Aphon to do some fighting.

 

[Kylass Starhaven]

CLOSING THE SIGN UP FOR THIS! (An exception will be made if we can get more Galactic Empire Opposition)

PLEASE MAKE SURE I HAVE YOUR NAME, CHARACTER BLURB AND OBJECTIVE CORRECT.

Because Galactic Empire folks are rather outnumbered here, I am going to let them have some NPC's to control. So feel free to use the Imperial Assault Platoon and Imperial Battle Squadron links to fill up your ranks. And to our Jedi/Lightside Ally RPers, try and respect the larger story environment so we don't overwhelm our opponents!

Remember the narrative crux of this Skirmish is we are outnumbered and outgunned, and are caught between escape and resistance. Play up that drama!

Very much looking forward to the thread!~ I will post it up tomorrow or Sunday!~
