Escape from Mos Shuuta - Part One

We used the Beginner Box adventure for the first session.

Opening adventure had the four heroes running from Teemo the Hutt. They ducked into the cantina to hide from three Gamorean guards in hot pursuit. Craig & Kyle tried to blend in with the people in the booths. Craig failed to blend, but they didn’t run away. Kyle failed to blend and the people got up to move to some tables. Brent charmed the Twi’lek on stage into letting him dance as well while Jonas pointed his gun at the bartender and hid in the supply closet.

The guards failed to see Jonas & Brent - but they spotted Craig & Kyle and started to enter the cantina. Craig dropped one with a blaster shot, slowing the others. Between him and Kyle they dropped the other two. The bartender, not a fan of Teemo either, nor the guards, told them of a freighter in the hanger bay owned by Trex, a Trandosian bounty hunter & slaver. It only needed a part to be able to jump them to hyperspace and safety - a Hypermatter Reactor Ignitor. He told them they could probably get one at the junk shop next door, so they thanked him and left. Jonas grabbed a Cudgel from one of the fallen guards as they escaped.

They found the part they needed, but it cost more credits than they had between them. Brent led the shop owner out back looking for some “accessories” for the ship, leaving the others inside. Since the part was just laying on a shelf, Kyle & Jonas kept watch while Craig stole the part and took off.

They went the “back way” toward the hanger and narrowly missed more guards looking for them. They spotted an Imperial shuttle coming toward the town as they made their way toward the hanger. When they got there they found two droids standing guard at the entrance, so they found a back way. Failing to slice the door open and attracting one of the guards, Kyle asked the guard about hiring the ship for transport, thus distracting him long enough for the others to slip in.

Once they were all inside, Craig left the HMRI under the mandibles as they made their way around the ship. Brent and Jonas noticed the docking clamps were still in place, but decided they would deal with that later. They found two more guards at the bottom of the landing ramp and they attacked. Down the ramp comes Trex who gets into a hand to hand battle with Kyle as the others dispatch
the droids guarding the ramp.

It’s a fierce battle between the Trandosian and the Wookie, but the Wookie winds up on top. Literally. He caused Trex to stumble and managed to finish him off, then drug his body on board the Krayt Fang. Craig retrieved the HMRI and they locked the ramp just as the  other security droids were arriving from the door of the hanger bay. Kyle upgrades his blaster pistol to the heavier one that Trex had worn and gave his to Craig.

Craig managed to get the HMRI installed with a wonderful roll! Several Successes meant he got it installed first try and in record time. He also rolled four Threats and the group has yet to find out what that will mean. Craig kept saying, “it’s not my fault! It’s not my fault!”

The first session drew to a close and each player received 10 XP to spend.


The picture is just a quick grab - it's not what it looked like at the time, but I didn't think to grab a pic at that time. :-)
