Turns out the old farm has been burned out before we got there. What we did find were two human female youths who were afraid of their shadows after their ordeal. Trandoshan children are bread to be tough - you wouldn't find them cowering like rats!
We find a blaster pistol in the rubble, so it is not a total write-off. Arro transports them back to Mos Eisley, while the rest of us go on to check out the Tuscan Fort.
On the way we travel thru a narrow pass. Perfect time for a herd of bantha to stampede! Looks like this is no random act though because the lead bantha has a body tired around it's neck!
Provence sensibly dives for the cover of some nearby pebbles. Dragool and I look around and just know hiding is not in the cards for us. Dragool and I take two different approaches...
Dragool decides to dodge and weave through the bantha, body surfing through the beasts. But he forgot to your his boot buckle or something because he quickly found himself underfoot.
I couldn't go around like Provence, couldn't go through like Dragool, so the only option was to go over! Take charge of things! Jumping up on the first one was no problem at all. Bit I had some problems convincing the beast to turn right when he wanted to turn left, and he managed to loosen my grip. I tried to re-seat myself, but he three me off! And he had the bantha balls to trample all over me on his way by!
When Dragool and I dusted ourselves off, Provence was casually waiting for us.
We got back on the trail to the fort, and found it before too long. We got a lukewarm welcome, but we did finally meet with Adar Talon. Problem was that he didn't want to come along with us! We did get some help from his friend Quiss, who double-crossed him by calling in the bounty hunters.
An epic battle later, we are the only ones standing. We do find another one of those sweet nodded heavy blasters though.
Adar agrees to come back with us, seeing that his family is being put at risk and all.
Back at the ship, we find storm troopers, along with that silver bounty hunter! We kill 2 in the first two moves, then a grenade is lobbed by the hunter, but it is not that effective. Dragool and Provence soften him up, but it is up to me to climb on top of our own ship to finish him off.
When we leave, we find a start destroyer, belching out tie fighters at us. G'unresh tries out our new lasers and destroys three tie fighters in one shoot. "Don't get cocky!" shouts Dragool from the pilots chair. Well, with shooting like that, and some expert piloting we are soon out of the system.
We deliver Adar to Duntar's at Roche, to many thanks, and more importantly 5,000 credits each. (Total 25,000)
