Episode 5: Rebellion’s Call, Part 2

• Mission Objective: The group is tasked by Saul Gerrera to break into an Imperial communications facility and acquire communication logs to disrupt the Empire (2:59-3:47).
• Facility Information: Bosco successfully gathered information about the facility, learning it was built on an old mine with a recent cave-in creating an unexpected breach (4:11-5:31).
• Stealth and Infiltration: The team decided on a stealthy approach, with plans to use the mine as an entry point (5:41-5:50, 54:42).
• Character Contributions:
  • Bosco: Used his social skills to “turn” an Imperial officer named Trina, who now serves as an unwitting asset with high-level security access, potentially providing key card copies (9:56-28:56).
  • Darrrill: Won a device from a smuggler that provides a +1 bonus to security-related roles, aiding in bypassing security (31:50-32:18).
  • Luck: Conducted physical observation of the facility, estimating 20-30 troopers on site and noting the presence of Moff Panaka (35:50-37:02).
  • Nim: Utilized Streetwise to find criminal vulnerabilities, learning about local personnel in Hobs’ pocket who could be utilized for a cost (38:45-41:12).
  • Tina: Researched the facility’s security systems, gaining a +1 bonus to hacking-related roles, and also repaired her lightsaber and learned “Force Pull” (43:52-52:27, 1:06:10-1:09:00).
• Disastrous Plan: Despite initial successes in information gathering, a critical failure during the tactics roll indicated a “disastrous plan” with a worse-than-expected “bad” outcome, suggesting unforeseen complications, possibly related to Trina being a double agent (1:00:00-1:04:13).
• Limpet Mines: Saul Gerrera provided limpet mines, intending to render the facility inoperable after the data acquisition (57:28-59:53).
• The mission’s success is now largely dependent on navigating the unforeseen challenges stemming from the critically failed tactical planning.

Player Notes:

• Full house again.
• This recap is insanely late. It’s one of those things I kept meaning to getting around to, but life kept getting in the way.
• This recap is also a YT AI summary because I’m super lazy …
