Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
The first thing you can see from an extreme distance is the fuzzy outline of two AT-ST's.

"We will prepare for your arrival. We have taken one rebel into custody. Have anyore been captured?".
See the walkers. He syas to the others off comms. get on! We either get them out of the walkers or we leave now. They think I am him may be able to get them into the base and out of those things.

"We can't just leave these two officers here! Either they come with us, or we execute them here and now for crimes against the Republic. There's no middle road. They've know who we are."

Re: IC - Walkers!!!
It is just about at this point where red streaks of laser bolts smash into the armor of the Red Dawn. Streaking out from between the two AT-ST's is a smaller, manned AT-RT. It apparently moves faster than the others.

Re: IC - AT-ST's
Two AT-ST's increase their speed and stumble forward. Their forward-mounted twin, heavy blaster cannons fire at the rear of the Red Dawn causing a large explosion. Their overwhelming firepower strikes fear into the hearts of its opponents. Each PC making a Fear Check (as will be detailed in the OOC shortly).

Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
Thino barely had time to examine the datapad that Lanna had handed him before the shape of the walkers began to materialize, "This will have to wait till later then," he said as he placed the pad in his pouch and began walking up to the commander while releasing his Vamblade, "We need to make a choice about these two now, someone decide or I will."

Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
Suddenly the Commander lunges at Thino, reaching for the datapad, trying to knock it from him....unsuccessfully, as Thino Krist turns him aside. (Opposed Brawl checks) With his Maneuver, Cooks runs away from the group towards the base (he is at short range.)
Spoiler:
Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
Vesper levels the snowtrooper blaster rifle at Cooks. "Commander Cooks of the Galactic Empire, illegitimate successor of the Galactic Republic, you are guilty of war crimes. The sentence is death. Prepare to meet your maker." She fires at the escaping Imperial.

Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
Thino was startled slightly by the man trying to rush into him, but easily swatted him away with his free hand before the man ran off towards the walkers. Moments later Vesper fired at the commander issuing her decree of death unto him. Not wanting to miss out on the action Thino brought the new repeating blaster that he had been holding up so that he could aim at the fleeing imperial.
"Alright, let's see what this can do."

Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
Oona swallows down on the sick feeling rising in her stomach at the ghostly sight of walkers through the haze of the blizzard.
"You- you men... Come on now, everyone on the repulsor lift! Now!" She rushes towards the vehicle, pulling the straggling wounded by elbows, clasping shoulders, anything to get them moving. She clambers aboard and turns about to encourage the rest, offering her hand to help them up.

Walkers....
As you see the two Imperials AT-ST's moving your direction from the other side of the glacier that holds Echo Base, a fierce blizzard moves in quickly from the West. The snowstorm falls like a curtain across the horizon. The one slightly further away is swallowed up by the storm. The second one (slightly blinded) tries to proceed forward but encounters some difficult terrain....a crevasse in the ice. In a herky-jerky motion, the Walker makes it by the crevasse but has a difficult time regaining it's position (2 Threats: setback to next action).

Re: return fire...
It is then that you hear a loud burst from the ventral laser cannons of the Red Dawn!!! It strikes home on the forward AT-ST, doing it significant damage.

Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
Coming out of the snowstorm is a smaller, one-person Walker. It uses all it's maneuvers to step forward, coming into within long range of the Red Dawn, but extreme range to where the party is located. (If we moved on the lift to the ship, we'd be within range).

Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
Thino lowers the barrel of the light repeating blaster after seeing the effect it had on the commander's body. He was not one who liked to kill needlessly but it was what it was, and he did what the commander had forced him to do. Turning to the other issue at hand, they still had one more prisoner to deal with, but he knew the lieutenant would not be willing to cooperate any more than the commander had been based on their previous conversation, but he had not been lying before, he knew that his comrades would kill the man if Thino could not bring him with them, especially after the good doctor had rushed at the chance to fire at the fleeing commander.
"I'm saving your life whether you like it or not imperial," Thino says as he holsters/straps the LRP and draws his Carbine, setting it to stun and letting it fire on the bound officer, telling the rebel soldiers to carry the prisoner's body onto the transport.
Lt. Pitts strenuously resists the stun attempts, but finally his body gives out and he collapses. The Rebel Soldiers take him aboard the lift.

Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
As the last of the rebels and the prisoner get onto the lift, Helios swings it around and beelines for the freighter. "Get ready to jump and get on the ship. We need to book it!. When the lift gets to the ship Helios immediately turns and starts grabbing the loose gear which needs to be taken onto the ship. "Get moving! The dragons are getting closer!"

Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
Vesper disembarks the craft at the ship. Seeing the limp body of the Imperial, she asks, "Why are we taking him?! We should have executed him! What good does it do to take him with us?"

Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
Thino positions himself between Vesper and the lieutenant, “Because we are not murderers doctor. Had he died in the heat of battle or while trying to escape that would be one thing but he is incapacitated now and our prisonoer.”
Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
Vesper rolls her eyes. "Stand down, Thino. We should've executed him the instant he refused to cooperate with us—before you stunned him and made killing him a war crime. You made that decision for us." She gestures at the limp body emphatically. "Now are you going to help me pull him up the gangplank or stand there accusing me of premeditated murder?"Boutrose Saba-Norr wrote: ↑Thu Mar 22, 2018 3:49 amThino positions himself between Vesper and the lieutenant, “Because we are not murderers doctor.

Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
Voice trembling with fear and anger, "There is no time for this! In the event it had escaped your attention," Oona gesticulares wildly towards the oncoming Imperials, "there are Imperial Walkers bearing down on us as we speak. We will be overrun in moments! We must board the ship now."

Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
Thino looks from Vesper to Oona and grunts his agreement, “You’re right, let’s hurry”
Having said that, Thino moves to lift the lieutenant’s unconscious body from the floor of the transport and to throw him over his shoulder in order to carry him into the ship.

Re: IC - "Return to Hoth"
The one-manned AT-RT speeds forward and let's loose with a heavy volley of heavy repeating blaster fire. It peppers the side of the ship (to no effect) and the surrounding terrain, but leaves everyone unharmed. A second later, the cannons from the Red Dawn blow the AT-RT into smithereens!!!
The group decides the Lieutenant's fate and is able to safely board the ship.
[We are out of structured time and can resolve the Lieutenant's fate before the ship elevates into the atmosphere....barring any other decisions the group makes. We'll continue when that's resolved.]

Vesper gives the Imperial prisoner a baleful glare. "Lanna, you want to keep an eye on him? I'm gonna help with the takeoff." The doctor runs up to the cockpit and takes a seat at the navigation station. "Time to get outta here, folks!" she yells down the corridor to the others dilly-dallying near the entrance to the Red Dawn.

Oona turns to the wounded soldiers, "Now, Sergeant, let's get these soldiers in quickly. Everyone, grab whatever you can hold and haul ass." She hastily stuffs whatever comes to hand into her belt before helping the soldiers on board quickly.
