The rebels have returned from a successful mission to the planet Typha-Dor, being the tenuous diplomatic relations between them and Vanqor.

The tension from the war and bad business decisions has led the Gallofree Yards Inc. into bankruptcy. This has left many of Gallofree ’s resources being sold to the highest bidder or seized by the Empire.

The elite strike force from the ENDURANCE cell receives orders from FULCRUM to secure the sectors local Gallofree Shipyards for use by the rebellion. Their goal: infiltrate the station and secure it for the rebellion.

EPISODE VI

ONSLAUGHT AT ARDA 1

The ENDURANCE cell of rebels has been steadily building its base and establishing its foothold on Vanqor. In a testament to their success, REBEL HIGH COMMAND has called for more resources to be allocated to them.

BX-FX42

Maro, Cindi, Sinek and I departed for Stenos to acquire supplies for the Rebellion. I supplied Sinek with some credits to secure 2 Blaster Actuating Modules. Then Left with Cindi and Maro to obtain illegal goods that we need to continue our mission. The odds played out as expected and the criminals decided to try and double cross us and take our funds. It didn’t end well for them. Leaving behind piles of dust and Cindi cremating the other corpses, we proceeded to the randevu. Despite the lack of we evidence we left, the authorities, of which there are few, decided to peruse us and odds being at to 313/5 extort us. I prudently took this opportunity to contact Sinek and we decided to depart. Coming back to this planet in the future is unadvised. Sinek was able to acquire the mundane goods along with my specialty items.

Crishaliah

Chrish goes back to Nagus to get a commissioned statue of Calvin for the ship. Leo of Leo’s statue Emporium has only great things to say about her and thanks her for the bath salts that has helped him have many children.
Chris sets up good relations with Leo’s Emporium and promises to spread his name throughout the galaxy. The statue is delivered and installed on the Hobbs like a hood ornament / bobble head on the inside of the Navigation window.

Introduction to Nagus

I had a lot to think about. Without me being directly involved the breakdown was almost immediate. Spacer was not able to maintain command, Enife argued with every decision and people almost died. I didn’t want to be in charge. That was always someone else. Trebor, Kit, Rhan and then Kota. It makes sense though. Before the Jedi order when Mace found Kota he was strong with the force however he was a inexperienced boy – one who grew into a great man. Now it is my turn to be that leader. This is my militia now. I called everyone to the command deck.

After everyone is seated and comfortable I speak.

“We are a team. I may have the force however I can’t be successful on my own. I am but one Toydarian in a big galaxy. I can see the future, read people’s minds, and channel the force into each of you. Empowering you to do great feats far past your normal abilities. We are destined to do great things. I have seen it. However, we will only be able to accomplish those great things together. I can see the future but I am not proficient with shooting a gun. Spacer can shoot very well however he can’t fly a fighter. Tiree can fly a starfighter however he can’t repair the hyperdrive. These are all things we can do together. Together we can accomplish anything. I have thought about this a lot. This is not Kota’s militia anymore. It is ours. With that said I will not disrespect his memory by allowing what he built to fall apart. So this is what we are going to do.

Jake is in charge of training pilots. You were a instructor at the academy – that will be important here. There are three Alpha-3 V-wings in the hanger – we just can’t get to them right now. Do what you can until we get that done.

Kix, get into the medical bay and do a full inventory. Take who you need to get the place cleaned up. Let me know what you have and what you need. Power has been routed to that area. Get a mechanic in there to help clean up all the systems.

Cyndi, You were interested in the workshops so that is now your responsibility. Grab a crew and clean the place up. I want all those workshops up and running with people in them fixing the things around here that need to be fixed. Take a look at the manufacturing area and figure out what you need to get it up and running. Don’t change what it is currently configured to make. I think those DC-15’s might end up being useful.

Crishaliah, take a look at the YT-2000 and tell me everything we need to get her up and running past peak efficiency. Including what order we need to do them in. Use your best judgment.

Spacer and Maro, I want base security to get a serious fix. I am not happy that we were infiltrated. Especially by a bunch of amateurs. Get a rotation of guards set up. No one works alone. In addition I want our electronic security revamped. No more unwanted data pads. Also I want our long range sensors up and running along with someone manning that post at all times. If you can’t find a sensor dish make one. Or steal one from the empire. In the end it is our job to make their lives harder. They might as well help us out with doing it.

Keep me up to date with progress. I am proud to be working with all of you. Let’s get to work.”

EPISODE III

Endurance Explored

The rebels have returned from a successful mission, and have been informed that they will now be responsible for Alliance operations in the entire Sertar sector.

The Venator Class Star Destroyer that they have made their home is in dire need of repair. In an effort to catalog all that needs to be done, our group of rebels have set to explore the grounded ship and make the much needed repair themselves.

A family of Gundarks has made the underbelly of the ENDURANCE their home. If the base is going to be safe they must be dealt with – one way or another.

The Setup

Initial excursions into the bowels of the Endurance have had limited success. Leeching power from the city is not a viable long term solution for remaining hidden. Sinek opts to command the mission from the Command Center via comlink, while several experts are gathered to explore the ship.

The Fore

The party begins by moving towards the fore, and find themselves blocked out of engineering by a stuck door. It was luckily not a blast-door. While Maro scouted ahead through ventilation ducts, Morian cut the door with her fusion cutter. As it crashed down they noticed several deactivated buzz droids, but several active Stinger droids. Most were dispatched, but one was captured and reprogrammed, now serving Spacer as “Popshot”. The party explored the engineering area and realized there is a small manufacturing plant here, designed to be able to create parts needed for repair and maintenance of the ship. It is currently configured for DC-15 Blaster Pistols.

They continued forward to the Sensors center of the ship. Here the hull of the ship was badly damaged during the crash and the internal systems are somewhat exposed. While searching the area the group noticed a datapad attached to one of the terminals – and a probe droid lurking just outside the ship! The party dispatched the probe droid and sliced the datapad, realizing it had been slicing the sensor systems of the ship, tracking incoming and outgoing traffic! (The ship’s internal sensors had not yet been repaired). Maro was able to determine the owners of the datapad – two low level bounty hunters. The party turned around after Crish surmised they would try to set an ambush at the main hangar elevator – which turned out to be true. As the party left though, they spotted – just a second too late – an Ion mine hidden inside a clone trooper helmet. Cyndi was blasted unconcious. After some medical attention he was brought back, if worse for wear.

Main Elevator

As the party approached the Main Elevator they scouted thoroughly but could see no sign of an ambush. Deciding to press on for now, Morian, spacer, and crish began to climb down through the hole in the elevator floor, down the shaft. They failed to make it all the way down, getting stuck on a ledge some 40 feet above ground – a freighter hangar door. it was while reseating to finish the climb down that they were caught off guard again – spacer spotted another ion mine. He was able to pry this one from the wall and throw it away before it detonated, but Morian was still caught in the blast and knocked unconscious. A fit of fire erupted from two bounty hunters and their probe droids. The noise from the battle stirred some Gundarks underneath inside the main hangar, but luckily they did not seem to move into the area where the battle was taking place. Once the bounty hunters and their droids were dispatched, Morian was cared for and everybody climbed back up the shaft, moving across the elevator towards the aft of the ship.

Secondary Reactors

After crossing the main elevator the party continued through towards the secondary reactors, accessing them via ventilation ducts. The spotted inside a gundark. They decided to just lure the gundark out towards the main elevator by dropping food – the body of one of the bounty hunters – down the elevator shaft. The plan worked, and the sealed the door behind the beast. The parties technicians set to work rerouting the four working reactors, each capable of powering a system. Several more in here were not functioning but would require parts to repair. The party decided to leave the door sealed, and would create warmth elsewhere for the gundarks so that they would stay and act as a security system for the lower bowels of the ship.

EPISODE II

Perlemian Haul

The remnants of Kota’s militia have finished regrouping on Vanqor and reestablished communication with FULCRUM, their connection with the rest of the REBEL ALLIANCE and the cell has been assigned the new codename ENDURANCE.

Above Vanqor, an aging orbital platform may hold the key to striking a painful blow against the GALACTIC EMPIRE. Captured data reveals that the mysterious PERLEMIAN HAUL, an Imperial convoy filled with valuable information and powerful weapons, must stop there to refuel.

Now, an elite strike force from the ENDURANCE cell approaches the station. Their goal: infiltrate the station, board one of the convoy’s freighters, and commandeer it.

The Setup

CT-6116 “Kix” uncovered data from the droid brain of BLX-D4R while working on reprogramming the droid for rebel use. It indicated the Perlemian Haul was coming to Vanqor, and the rebels decided to seize the opportunity to strike against the Empire and implicate Muraga the Hutt if possible. See the Prelude, Recovered Intel. The night before they leave for the mission, Sinek Kaplumbaga has a dream about a lonely girl in a prison cell, the words M226 painted on the side of the ship.

Martle Station

The crew boarded Martle Station in their Stolen Lamda-class T-4a Shuttle using the false identities Fulcrum provided as workers hired on for station cleaning and maintenance. They got to quick work learning about the station. Maro Bibble broke into a bulkhead and began to access security systems while (Jennifer) went and found an officer – Staff Chief Blin Waldin – in the mess hall, gleaning information from him under her false identity. They eventually narrowed down that several freighters from the Perlemian Haul would be here the next day – so they set about finding a way to board the ship. They met with Passk who was able to introduce them to Raf. Raf allowed them to join his work gang, the Big Black, in exchange for getting a member of his workgang and his ill wife off Martle Station. They made plans to hide them in cargo containers and load them in along with the rest of the cargo.

After accessing the security tapes (triggering the alarm in the process), Maro was able to splice together footage that would show them leaving towards their shuttle. They rigged the shuttle to blow at the same time they were boarding the M226 – making it look like engine failure (as they had already set up that their ship had trouble when landing). The plan went off without any apparent issues – though they were quite nervous when the Inquisitor gave control of the prisonerMorian Kal to Lt. Commander Jilan Noor, and they were aboard.

Freighter M226

After taking out a couple of patrol troopers, “Nerfherder” donned the officers uniform while the rest of the party hid in containers again. Spacer managed to bluff a worker into loading the containers with the players into a skiff and sending them to the first Cargo Bay. Inside, they were nearly found out as he tried to bluff another worker to moving them into the 3rd cargo bay. After a short shootout, a Stormtrooper guard was dead, and the worker was unconcious. BX inspected the container and found a cylinder full of some dust – which Sinek eventually identified as ground Khyber crystal.

The party woke the captured worker and coerced him into service. They moved to the second by and learned that it was a prison. They took the security room by force, and worked their way through the prison where they found and rescued Morian Kal – the woman from Sinek’s dream.

Unfortunately, this set off the alarm aboard the ship. The party kicked it into high gear, releasing all prisons at once and heading back to their skiff. They rode directly to the command module, bypassed the lock, and took an elevator to the bridge. From the elevator maintenance shaft, Maro managed to send a surge that damaged almost all lighting throughout the ship. A firefight erupted in the room outside the bridge, that ended with 2 dead stormtroopers and 8 dead imperial troopers.

When they finally got the doors to the bridge open, they killed Lieutenant Hyzhan Troo and Lt. Commander Jilan Noor – the XO and Captain of the ship. (Jennifer) then successfully brought the ship out of hyperspace and jumped to the rendezvous coordinates which took them to the Telaris System. Here they were greeted by Admiral Raddus who honored them for their contribution. The rebels hiding in the wreckage of the Endurance were given a ship (which was in the 3rd cargo bay, in imperial impound), and given responsibility of their entire sector.
