Star Wars CYOA/RP

[James Gryphon]

I'd take a gamble and go for the ship. I'm not sure how viable this is, since the Rebels are losing, but if you go to the planet, the Imps'll just track your pod and hunt you down on the surface, anyway.

[Hickory]

You spot a Nebulon B class frigate nearby in fairly good condition. Working the controls, the pod's steering thrusters turn it towards the ship. You press a button to activate the IFF tag, and in a trice the radio is cracklung wit the voices of rebellion soldiers. "Attention escape pod, enter one of the forward hangars."

Swinging the pod to the left, the glowing shields of the forward hangars provide a sense of safety. The pod passes through the shield and falls to the ground upon entering the gravitated atmosphere. Another passenger pulls the lever to release the door, and it falls away, revealing a Rebel soldier. "Good to see you alive," he grinned and helped them out.

You smile too, sure that you just escaped the death trap of space. Jan is forgotten in your mind as you walk towards the hangar exit.

Boom!

Something's crashed into the ship. Crashed.... or docked. A pointed nose of a ship is sticking through one of the side walls of the hangar - it must've crashed through the side of the blast field and driven itself diagonally into the hangar. The point splits into four sections and blossoms outward, revealing a squad of black armored shadowtroopers. Your gut senses the prescence of the figure as well. The rebel soldiers start to fire into the gap, but the shadowtrooper's superior armor is helping them spread out into the hangar.

Help the Rebels fend off the boarders.
Run away into the other parts of the ship.

Deciding that it'll be easier to take on these troopers with back up, you fire into the ranks of troopers. A few fall, and you congratulate yourself as the Rebels lower their weapons. However, the figure's prescience hasn't left your gut, so you stay on guard. "Better go investigate the craft," says one of the Rebels. "Make sure there aren't any stragglers.

Volunteer to check the craft.
Let someone else go.

What? It says I voted for the first option but I didn't.

[Hickory]

Forgot to reset it. Try again.

[HeadInAnotherGalaxy]

Aboot vot toime period iz ziz exactly takin' place around?

[Hickory]

During the Rebellion's fight against the empire - before A New Hope.

[HeadInAnotherGalaxy]

Ah, Major. Ziz villnae be Ze Force Avakenz rubbizh vill it?

[Hickory]

Nope. Pure Empire vs. Rebellion, plain and simple.

[Hickory]

"I can go check it out," you say. The Rebels nod and cover you as you advance towards the open boarding craft. Your boots clank against the metal as you step inside. It's dark, with racks of heavy blaster rifles. You look at one of them, and back to yours. The Imperial ones fire large blasts of energy but have a slower rate of fire and bad aim. It would be nice for taking out enemies quickly, but not large groups. You could take one of the heavy blasters, but you'd have to give up your own blaster rifle.

Continue on without exchanging the rifles.
Exchange the rifles.

[James Gryphon]

You can pick up your own when you come back, if you want it.

[Wylder Treejumper]

Power doesn't compensate for bad aim; I prefer to be able to hit something with a bolt less deadly over missing with a more forceful one.

[James Gryphon]

Maybe, but if it's a landing craft inside a Nebulon-B, I'm thinking that you're going to be fighting in fairly close quarters. The aim shouldn't be so bad as to cause you to miss at short or medium range.

[Wylder Treejumper]

Storm trooper weapons, James. Think about that...

[James Gryphon]

Stormtroopers are underrated.
