It began in 24 BBY with the Raxus Address being issued to the galaxy by the esteemed Count of Serenno and then newly incumbent Head of State, Dooku. The SEPARATIST CRISIS. Thousands of star systems and several megacorporations coalesced to form the CONFEDERACY OF INDEPENDENT SYSTEMS in the wake of the aged Galactic Republic's unchecked corruption and harsh taxation of the galaxy, aiming to secede.
For a time, the movement was met with unabated successes, growing more powerful over the course of two years with hundreds more systems and sectorial governments joining the Confederacy until the tensions with the Galactic Republic reached their boiling point upon 22 BBY, culminating with the start of the devastating CLONE WARS that consumed the galaxy. The Separatists were ready, and the DROID ARMY, numbered at one quadrillion units galaxy-wide, was activated.
The Republic was likewise ready as well, having unveiled the newly formed GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC at the beginning battle of Geonosis. The vaunted Clone Troopers proved far more efficient combatants for the war than their Battle Droid counterparts initially. Both sides were repeatedly struck with bolstering victories and fatal losses.
The CIS had nearly overwhelmed the Republic in a decisive campaign to the Core, but the Republic soon pushed them back to farther rims as the war dragged on. The Republic Navy was hard pressed to keep up against the unrivaled might of the Confederate Navy on average, and so kept to as many ground conflicts as possible in order to secure their claims over planets and sectors. The Clones, despite their advantages, were pressured by the sheer numbers of the mass produced Droids, but their prowess and zeal carried them through every time to either victory or to bitter fights to the end.
The Foundry stood at near completion, awaiting cargo from a CIS Supply Ship and Lucrehulk. Unexpectedly, the Republic struck to intercept and eliminate the Separatist ships with a Venator Star Destroyer force. A skirmish in space and on land took place, few Republic personnel surviving and being forced to retreat with a single damaged cruiser, but not before the CIS forces were decimated and the cargo lost as it crashed on the planet.The battlegrounds were shrouded by harsh snowstorms, preventing any attempts to mull over the aftermath by the Republic or CIS afterwards and causing them to otherwise abandon the planet, and the unfinished Foundry that lay on it. Many intact vehicles and articles of equipment remained, as well as a disabled but untouched MUNIFICENT CRUISER. More importantly... there are Droids here that survived in working and functional conditions, waiting to reawaken...Our story begins here, for YOU are one of those Droids.
+============================================================================+The B1 BATTLE DROID is a cheap rank and file combat automata. It is lacking in tactics, it's armor is not the best, and it's Droid brain is under constant stress from having to process it's duties, and it's typical firearm is mediocre compared to many other weapons. However, it is capable of killing and will always strive to succeed in it's mission. As a plus, it can utilize a sense of humor and sarcasm unlike many Droids. The humorous and sarcastic do not last long in the Galaxy, unfortunately.+============================================================================+The B2 SUPER BATTLE DROID is a strong and reliable soldier-bot. It's armor is durable, it's wrist mounted weapons exceptional at obliteration. It's attitude is strict and it's patience for trifling matters thin. With a bulky frame and enhanced piston strength, it is highly capable of nearly anything others in it's profession are, with twice the proficiency. However, they are not the greatest thinkers, being made to take orders, never give them.+============================================================================+
>>4653119>B1Clankers gonna clank
+============================================================================+The BX-Series COMMANDO DROID represents some of Baktoid Combat Automata's finest work. A tactical thinker coupled with strength and armor greater than a B2 unit and enhanced agility to that of any organic combatant makes the Commando Droid one of the deadliest opponents to encounter on the field, not even counting the fact it can disguise and preform stealth. However, the head is incredibly weak, and many will be seeking to acquire such a rare droid by force to add their arsenal. The Commando is additionally awkward in it's non-hostile encounters with non-Droids...+============================================================================+The CDE-T-Series Unit, informally the TACTICAL DROID, is a staple of Confederate Military tactics. It is far and away a greater intelligence than many droids in the entire galaxy. The body is merely a shell to contain it's valued hardware and software. It can process extensive amounts of data to determine solutions, create formula and triple-think strategy for battles, and a variety of other tasks. It has it's own personality and unique cognitive functions. It is a poor fighter, obviously, and rather weak much like a B1 unit. Tragically, most are extremely arrogant, and you will be as well if you choose this droid.+============================================================================+

An ordinary B1 Battle Droid.>2#. A fearsome B2 Super Battle Droid.>3#. A skilled BX Commando Droid.>4#. A sound T-Series Tactical Droid.+============================================================================+And your designation. Every Battle Droid has a multi-digit code designation by which they are identified. Droids in this army detachment are allowed nicknames among themselves as well should the occasion arise, though it is rare as Droids do not usually keep up with or pick up nicknames like Clone Troopers.(Designation Example: 3B3-1204, TA-175, NI-22)>1#.

>>4653205Uh, those are pngs but yes shit I did, and it's a crucial slide too. Sorry, this is a bad first impression for a new quest. Remind me not to make threads late.Not every battle the Clones fought were victories or defeats however. Some were stalemates. One such stalemate with no clear outcome took place during the waning days of the Clone Wars here on the icy colony planet of CRONDRE in the MID RIM in fact. The planet was home to a secretive DROID FOUNDRY commissioned by Viceroy Nute Gunray in order to fuel attacks against the Republic's legions from behind during the OUTER RIM SIEGES.Absorb this info because it sets up where you are. We'll set out in a few after I get my coffee.
if we are tactical droid we are going to be the big king we are going to even have a big nice crown with our court of Rodgers
and remember B1 battle droids are designed to die cleanly as any hit either does literally nothing or completely kills it as a fail-safe from them going rouge from head damage
>>4653257you up for a tactical droid?
>>4653766Glad to clear that up.>in the vicinity of a foundry that could workWe MUST be a Tactical, no doubt about it
>>4653814the war and loss would have squished arrogance and we can learn to joke with the B1s

>>4653880LE GASP this is revolutionary
Man I just wanted to start at the bottom so we could do maximum upgrades and be the best damn clanker in the galaxy. Tactical droids are all losers anyway who get their "lesser" brethren slaughtered and they don't even bat an optical receptor. Gat dang tacs and super tacs with their shitty powerful brains.
>>4653126I pick thisROGER ROGER GANG
>>4653889While I'm interested in the aspects in getting a Seppie holdout up and running and building an army with that foundry and managing our army assets and logistics this is also a nice scenario and I'm fine with either.
GOD DAMMIT OP START WITH THE ROGER ROGERIN
>>4653900Why do we need to be a taccie to run an holdout? If we're a clanka and get ourselves some hardware upgrades, we would be keeping our Roger Roger mind while freeing up processing.
>>4653910because a b1 battle droid struggles not thinking and following orders and are designed to be recycled and there heads are designed in such a way it easily and cleanly dies from a damaging blow so that it does not go rouge or glitch as they recycle all the parts putting faulty programming out of circulation
>>4653910>>4653919>it's Droid brain is under constant stress from having to process it's duties.it struggles with its brain when not even thinking on its own and instead following orders, being kind of worse then a organic brain and its armor is designed to be cheap and well its head with designed faults containing the brain
>>4653910A B1 isn't really smart enough. Yeah I know we could try upgrading but we'd have too much charisma for a leader's position, and nobody will take a B1 leader seriously. But like I said I'm good anyway, a B1's attempt could be fun.
>>4653865B1 BOIS
Right, B1 vote stands at ten votes.Tactical Droid vote stands at eight votes.Vote called, Stud Bucket winrars.
>>4653952awww atleast i hope we can get a tactical droid body to stick our head containing our processor onto
>>4653952Lets do this, we can try upgrading to an OOM in the foundry.
>>4653958twin processors and eliminating the head weakness perhaps also some photo sensors on the chest and we paint a mouth on the chest or stomach grill and switching between the voices as we talk
>>4653958>not designing an entirely new body with blackjack and hookers to slot intoCannibalizing or adapting "superior" model parts is cool though. Gotta snag some wrist-rockets.
>>4653992yeah definitely replacing the arms and legs but we will be firstly the rules and also why i suggested it was a easy mod to do
[....RUNNING CORE PROCESS....][....ACTIVATION INITIALIZED....][....MOTORS, COMPUTER, LOGIC MODULE, FRAME ENGINE ONLINE....][....CORE SHIP NOT FOUND, COMMAND UPLINK UNREACHABLE, ORDERS WITHSTANDING....][UNIT ACTIVATED]....Slowly, pressing all of it's strength unconsciously, a lone B1 Battle Droid rises out of the snow of the tundra of Crondre. YOU are that B1. Your standard issue E-5 Blaster Rifle lays unused in the snow before you as you clench your head trying to... trying to just understand... well, anything. It's hard and it feels like you're at you're limits alone just activating. There are brothers around you... cold and motionless. Some are destroyed, and some are just lying around, deactivated."Uhh... what were my orders... ughhh.... where am I?"Seems like you've been here a while, you were deep covered in snow. That as much you can at least tell. Good thing most on board functions seem to work. The battlefield around is just silent save for the howling wind.... What to do now?What exactly to do... now? There aren't any orders currently received. What to do now?
>>4654013>Attempt to locate your base of operationsIf there's no orders, then obviously you need to fall back and regroup and wait for orders from high commandFinding out there IS no high command is where the fun begins
>>4654013Grab another weapon and DUAL WIELD then search for other Droids that might also be working before looking for the foundry.
>>4654013pick up your blaster locate any functional troops and locate center of command and production to get orders>>4654021okay grab two weapons
>>4654018+1
>>4654018+1 to this
>>4654018Clearly this. Also, i really like this QM, very nice.
"...."Standing up straight from the snow and wiping the excess frost off, you scan your surroundings some more, trying to think, waiting for anything to pop into mind... Well, looking down at the destroyed hunk of a fallen brother missing his lower midsection, you do think of one thing."Hmmn... Two blasters are better than one!"Not like he'll be needing it anyway, more for Stud Bucket. Oh yeah, they called you Stud Bucket before. Or did you call you Stud Bucket before? Either way, you just remember being more assertive than a typical B1, that was why you were a stud! Er, where does the 'bucket' part come from again....? Oh yeah! You were repaired and redeployed since Christophsis! You were a durable bucket for a B1."Now I just have to remember my orders. Ughhh, what were they again? Mmmm.... do I even have any?"The answer is again no. So... if there aren't any orders coming to you... what if... you went to the orders? Of course, just go find the commander and they'll have the orders! Commander was in... the core ship, right? Or was it that supply ship? Wait, the supply ship was destroyed wasn't it? Or are they in the Foun... wait, there's a foundry?....This is all so confusing. If there's a foundry... which way was it? Maybe someone else will know, if you're active... another brother has to be, right?
>>4654096sigh see this is a b1 brain do you guys now understand why i wanted a tactical droid also it would likely already been in the foundry or command center but atleast all this snow prevents overheating processors
>>4654096>See if you can find any active brothers to ask directionsand if that fails>Kick a CDE-T series unit until it wakes up from beauty sleepWe need a BRAIN to locate this foundry...and Stud Bucket doesn't have one. WhoopsI keep wanting to call this guy stud muffin
Looks like SB-62 will be setting off in search then. Oh, right, that was your ID. Can't forget that, it's ingrained in your memory chips. If a B1 didn't remember his ID, he likely had a faulty chip, so he'd melted down for scrap to make a better B1. Never happened to you though, your memory is good! ....Enough.The battlefield is real littered with junk. And by that you mean wreckage. There's destroyed alliance and Republic vehicles everywhere, some broken down AATs and MTTs here, some of those Clone walkers in ruin there. And the bodies are plentiful too, there's trashed brothers, and dead Clone Snowtroopers. Better watch your step, don't wanna trip over on-"FI-FI-PE-PI-BE-PI-BE-BEEP...!""Huh? What was that...?"A good question to yourself. There was a sudden beeping then a few feet away! Don't know of any organic that beeps, so it must be a fellow Droid!"Hello? Anyone there? Hello...? Oh!""WRI-WRI-TI-TI-TO-PE!"You slowly approach what looked to be the hulk of another wasted vehicle, but it turns out it's simply one of the bigger Droids. A Techno Union Octuparra Tri-Droid, buried deep within the snow. The big brother can't seem to move anything but it's head, guns and optics. It struggles in the snow to reinforce how stuck it is to you as it bleeps for help. Well, you could, but it might take a while, considering how much snow there is, and how big the Octuparra is!"I can blast you out."True, those plasma bolts should melt the snow. But the sound... do you want to really risk attracting unsavory attention?
>>4654102This is precisely why is chose a B1
>>4654109>Blast him outNo brother left behind.If his guns are active just let him know he should blast anything that moves while we're extracting him
>>4654109We're right next to a functional Octuparra Tri-Droid, why would we be worried about attracting attention? If anything, attention is good, we might find more droids!>Blast him out
>>4654109Ask the big bro if he knows where the foundry is, promise we'll go there and get help and then come back for him. Doing it solo might be dangerous, scavengers or pirates or wildlife could be about.
>>4654109Wait uh...now it's the choice right? It gets confusing if you don't add something in the end to signify that. If it is...>Blast Him OutSnow's pretty loud, right? And we're already close to a giant tri-droid.
>>4654115>>4654116He may be big and have a strong weapon but he's slow and can't reach anything under him trying to get us.
>>4654120Nothing's trying to get us. If it had, we'd be scrap already. Even an bucket can understand that.
>>4654120Yeah but we're also dumb enough that if we leave him and wander off we'll probably never be able to find him again.Either he knows where the foundry is and can lead us to it or he doesn't but we have a bigger gun to point at enemies while we bumble around trying to find it. Win win.Also yeah QM adding when we need to make a choice would be good.
>>4654120sure he can, those guns depress just fine
>>4654109sure lets blast him out but be careful not to blast them directly simply blast around them leaving behind a kinda thin layer of snow around the limbs
"BRI-BRI-BRI."The Octuparra urges you to free it. It says it must recharge it's batteries at the Foundry. The Foundry! It knows where it is! Probably."Alright. This might sting a little."Not against that armor, but B1s have more courtesy than most Droids. After all you wouldn't smack a brother down just because they're in your way, unlike certain grey units with wrist weapons...Aiming carefully and sinking your feet a little in the snow to brace, you raise both E-5s and shoot bolts off at the snow around the Tri-Droid's buried limbs to heat things up and free it. The snow softens and melts, exploding into hot watery chunks as smoke rises. The Octuparra beeps happily as ice built up around it's limbs begins to snap and break.Slowly and steadily, the gigantic war Droid rises up over you, bleeping gratefully for the assist."That should do it! Uhh... you can take me to the Foundry, right?""BRI-FI- WRI-WRI TI TI LO PO BEEP BOOP."That means yes.
>>4654221Lets fucking go
The massive Techno Union Droid takes a slow step to behind itself, it was low on battery so it wouldn't be the fastest to move.However, just before it gets far, it's head spins around and it aims it's heavy laser in the distance behind you, making you stop dead in your tracks."H-Huh? What is it?""PI-PI BE.""Enemy?! Where?!"The Tri-Droid is staring off at a crashed hull of a Republic gunship some ways back. Looking it over, you can see the disturbance it detected with it's monocular eyes. There, a little tiny cloaked figure is looking sheepishly back from atop the LAAT, slowly retreating back into cover. What is it? An alien? An animal? ....a Clone?!The Octuparra gives a low beep. It's low battery means it can't fire much more, it says it's your call. Kriff, nobody ever said it was your call before. What are you supposed to do...? Go in gung-ho and eliminate the possible enemy by blasting 'em? Greet it? Greeting things wasn't in your standard protocol programming!....But your standard protocols weren't running right now, was your programming even taking the reigns? Feels a bit too independent than normal today.>How will you approach the situation?
>>4654232Uh... How about we knock?
>>4654221Fuck yeah.>>4654232SNOW JAWA>Tell the octu to fire at the sign of any hostility. Approach the laat and say hello.
>>4654232Tell it to come out? That's standard procedures for...possible prisoners, right? I'm trying to think like an droid here.
>>4654232>Greetings sentient! We come to parley!Because that's *totally* how to approach non-droids without getting shot, right?
>>4654250Sounds too friendly for an B1 droid to me. It should be either confused order or snark.
>>4654264We're the friendliest of the bunch aren't we? But if it's too jovial then just add the biggest pauses between each word like stud bucket is very obviously trawling through his databanks trying to find the appropriate-ish wording. >Confused orderKek now I'm just imagining us ordering this guy to come out and talk to us please....OR ELSE *waves blaster*
>>4654279The studs approach>Hands Up Pants Down
"Ughh... Alright, you back me up! I'm going to take care of them!" You say, possibly with murderous intent or not.The Octuparra watches like a fatal Nexu waiting for the right moment to pounce on it's prey as you sally off into the snow slowly and steadily towards the LAAT. Coming within fifteen feet of the crashed transport, you stop and look up at the roof of it, the small figure peeking out at you warily. They seem to shiver despite being bundled up, is it really that cold out here? Oh, wait, no, that's fearful shivering."Ughhh...."Ughhh.... what to say, what to say...? You aren't exactly like the OOM-Series Commanders and Security Droids assigned to Lucrehulks and what not, you're supposed to be a mainstay front line soldier who doesn't take prisoners, you're made to shoot all the Clones in sight and be done with it. If you were to take prisoners, you'd be issued orders or beamed new programming at the whims of a Nemoidian or T-Series to...."Uh, hey! You! Show yourself and uhh... identify or... uh, else!"...."Ugye nem fogsz lőni?"Bantha fertilizer! An unknown alien language, that makes this even more difficult! You're receptive to Galactic Basic, not this foreign lala tongue!>"Uhhh.... Yes?">"Uhhh.... No?">Write in.
>>4654338>Write in."Uhhhh...... I come in peace?"
>>4654347This. Hopefully it understands basic even if it doesn't speak it. Maybe make sure the blaster isn't pointed *directly* at it's little skull for emphasis.Also I forgot Jawas are basically droid slavers. Can't let our guard down unless we wanna be sold. (On the other hand if we someone manage to befriend it we may have gotten ourselves a mechanic...)
>"Uhhhh...... I come in peace?"
"Uhhh.... I come in peace?"You didn't really want to shoot right now, getting to the Foundry seems more important. Shooting people is still fun to do any time though..."Huhh...."The small figure puffs and slides down the roof of the LAAT into the snow below. They come around, still wary, as they drag a large bag through the snow. The figure is adorned in patchwork clothing sown together from burlap and other fabrics. They look poor, like most of the poverty stricken peoples in the Outer Rim."You not... going shoot?" They say in a childlike voice as they stop in front of you."No. Not if you identify yourself I won't." You say, unwilling to let your guard down."Tch... Sorry, not.. speaka basicc real very well..."
The figure lets down their, or rather her hood."Hek... Hello." She coughs.You tilt your elongated head a bit. You didn't know what kind of monster this female was."I Nelvaanian, Nelvaanian! That what I is. My nama Mimve see? Mimve." She points to herself, twiddling her claws.[ANALYSIS: Species; Nelvaan. World of origin; Nelvaan. TECHNO UNION CERTIFIED]Uhhh, your memory chip is telling you this is one of those people on that run thing, what was it called again? Oh, right, the Corellian Run. Hey, the memory chip actually recalled information from the universal tactical outlay uploaded to all active CIS units, nice. Now if you could just remember what world this one was..."Y-You... ghost, yes?""What.""Ghost! You ghost! Elder say no come here... battle place full of ghosts! Kill people!""Uhh.... that doesn't compute, I'm not a ghost, I'm a Battle Droid.""Droid...? Metal man... kill people?""Er, yes?""Egh!""No, no, wait, I'm not going to kill you, I come in peace! Ugh... what are you doing out here, Min.. Nelv.. Er, Mimve?"
"...."Reluctantly, the little alien girl spills open the bag she was dragging. It was full of weapons. There was an E-5, an E-5S, and some Clone guns."Hey, that's Trade Federation property.""Y-You saying I not h-have it?"Standard procedure when handling Trade Federation equipment and property is that if it isn't in CIS or Trade Federation hands, then the person those hands belongs to is better off dead unless permitted to handle said property. Although she wasn't shooting at you so you haven't started shooting yet."Why do you want it? Trade Federation property is strictly... belongs to the Trade Federation!""I-I want weapons... kill white devils and pirate with!""White devils?""White devils! Enslave home town people, force build castle or die! I hate white evil things! And pirate, pirate kill anyone want, no care about anyone! Pirate steal! I want give guns to home town, fight pirate back and white evil people!"Hey that sounds a lot like-"...Clones..."-Still though, that's Trade Federation property!"BRI-BRI-TI-TRI-TRE-PE!"Oh, and the Octuparra is telling you to just kill her and be done with it.>Are you just going to let her take it?
>>4654542>"Eh, I suppose it couldn't hurt to say we're supplying pro-confederacy forces... I might even get me a promotion with some OOM upgrades for showing initiative. And maybe some new stuff for you too, big guy! Whaddya think about rocket pods on you chassis?"
>>4654542Of course not, see we are going to have a brainwave here: We can't let her take the weapons cause she's not CIS or TF right? But from what she said she wants to use the weapons to kill clones which is good. Therefore the obvious solution is to conscript her as an auxiliary so that she can count as a CIS/TF member and therefore be allowed to use those guns to help us in our glorious fight!
>>4654542>>Are you just going to let her take it?"uhhhh.....whatever, keep it."
>>4654542Thank you for reminding me about Genndy wars, I should rewatch it.>Tell the nelvaan she has to get permission from your commander to have those blasters and to follow you to the foundry.Don't want her to end up getting killed in the meantime by something or another droid waking up.
>Tell the nelvaan she has to get permission from your commander to have those blasters and to follow you to the foundry.
Hmmmm.... time to strain the processor, EVEN HARDER."Eh, I suppose it couldn't hurt to say we're supplying pro-confederacy forces... I might even get me a promotion with some OOM upgrades for showing initiative. And maybe some new stuff for you too, big guy! Whaddya think about rocket pods on your chassis?"The Octuparra Tri-Droid stares silently for a moment, as if contemplating this. You were surprised it even had that level of intuitive thought like yourself. After a moment, it bleeps in affirmation and lowers it's gun."What fedrate?""Uh, well, look at it like this, I can't let you have the blasters under normal circumstances... sooo, instead, I'll let you join me, that way you can.""Join? Like army?""Yeah! You got the right idea. Normally the Confederacy doesn't let organics fight... unless it's their homeworld... but you're from around here, aren't you?""Yeah! Yeah, Crondre home. Colony, born in town!"Crondre. Oh, right, the ice world, this is where you're at."Great. That way you can tag along and become an auxiliary. You join up with the Confederacy and sponsor your system, you'll have permission to use those blasters to kill Clone demons in white!"The little Nelvaan looks stunned at your offer as you explain it with a firm hand of trust on her shoulder. Actually, you just didn't have a very good idea of not invading personal space. She doesn't seem to mind as her face lights up with a hopeful smile however."Yes! Yes! Mimve join xilary! Help kill white demons! Oh thank you! Thank you thank you!" She jumps with joy."Fantastic. Then come with me, we're going to the Foundry to see my commander so I can get promoted.""Fawn... dri?"
"Yeah, the Foundry, it's where Droids like me get made.""Made... like born?""Er, I guess you could say that.""And then what?""And then we march out to battle and destroy all those kriffin' Clones, because we're the best army the galaxy has ever seen.""Wow.... fawn dri could save Crondre from Clone then!""Of course! It's our duty to liberate the galaxy of the corrupt Republic. Now come along, my commander will be able to make your advent as a Volunteer auxiliary official.""Hmm... okay! But public gone.

Err... but we can be friends too because... uh, you're Confederate, now.""Yes, yes! Fedrate friend!""....Oh! Look, we made it.""Uwahhh...."After a long trek through the harsh snow and howling gusts, you arrive at last about three hours later. There lies the Foundry ahead. The place is sleeping, inactive with no Droid production of any kind. The autoturrets outside are offline.A bulky fortress sits atop the Foundry, built into the sides of the mountains. The Foundry levels would be below ground, though the command center and storage are above ground, as well as the vehicle and weapons depot where armaments are kept and made. There should be... anything you require in there, gas cartridges, and battery stations for recharging. Maybe even a few automated repair platforms...You continue to go closer, but Mimve stops and starts sniffing the air, growling at the ways ahead."What's wrong?""Ergh! Bad smell! I know smell! Tell giant stay... I show..."
>>4654960Sure i will [do what it commanded] "hmm we need to make it quick they need to soon recharge... welll eat lightning!
Without further delay, the small Nelvaanian takes your free hand herself and begins pushing on, you use brevity to tell the Octuparra to stay put while you scouted ahead. The thing beeps quietly and remains still...Mimve takes you along the rocks, scaling around until the two of stop at a good enough point to see around the open yard before the Foundry. You spot several figures, as well as a generally dreaded sight around B1s.... two mechanized walkers."...Who are they?""Eem prial armee! Always all human. They bad people!""Imperial... Army...? What."Focusing in with your audio receptors, you try to eavesdrop upon the so-called 'Imperial Army' soldiers, Mimve stifling her angry growl as you put a finger to your audio box and hush her...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5le5iKOVrqs"What is it, sir?""A most astonishing find. Not only have we discovered an entire battle field of Clone War era relics, but an entire Droid Foundry as well, Corporal!""A Droid Foundry... Well I'll be damned. What is your call, Lieutenant?""Hmpf, as fantastical as this antique compound may be, it's mere existence poses a threat to maintaining authority within the sector. If the fledgling dissenter group or the local criminal gangs were to find use with such an intact Foundry, they could well begin creating an army of old Separatist Battle Droids to attack the garrison with.""I see. So it must be destroyed then?""Indeed. Have somebody radio back to Crondre City and forward a request to Moff Dunsal, we'll be needing either heavy artillery, or Captain Skinnickan's Victory to bombard this place to ash.""Yes sir, right away. It may take a while to reach HQ through this weather.""Take your time, have the others spread out and search for ways in. Moff Dunsal will want this place looted for valuables before it's burned down."Those Imperials... they want to destroy the Foundry! You can't just let this happen! But... how exactly are you supposed to take them ALL out? There's like... nine... no, eleven soldiers total. And two walkers... The Octuparra would deal with those vehicles rather easily, but it's battery is low, no telling how many more shots it has left, the big boy.Luckily, they haven't accessed the place yet, otherwise they'd have a lot more cover, the bulkheads hidden away in a cave nearby leading underground and the front reinforced chamber doors and personnel locks are all sealed shut. They only open to certified CIS personnel.Ahh, but what are YOU going to do...? You're confident in your ability to shoot and kill, but it's just you, and a child."You have plan?""Plan?""Yes, yes! Plan! Plan take out bad Imrials! Could use snowstorm cloak from eyes, could try snipe, with Mimve sniper collected!"Or sit and fire in a fixed position with that heavy caliber Clone Blaster on fully automatic and hope they drop like flies. Oh... you aren't very good at plans though... but if you're to become an OOM, you need precision..."Could use Themral Detnator!""Thermal detona- Wait, when did you get those?""Uhh... picked off body Clones on journey... Hee hee!"True enough, she has two of them in her cloak. But Droids don't use those.... like, ever.>What is the game plan here?
>>4654977Bring in the Octuparra to disable the walkers, bank on it having enough charge to manage. Have the kid toss the thermals while we snipe the officer and lay down suppressive fire to keep the rest of the Imperials down. Once she's tossed the thermals, Mimve picks up a blaster and proves she's a born and bred Confederate.
>>4654980Also holy shit, how are you able to get art out that detailed in that little time? That's crazy.
>>4654977>Act like a glitching droid and start gunning away at them from behind cover while bellowing about the republic scum>When they troops converge on you to try and take you out have Mimve launch a thermal detonator at them>Octa stays hidden and deals with the walkers + as many stragglers as they can in the chaosWe can't take them in a head on fight, the basic idea is stud bucket performs crowd control and gets them nicely grouped together for them to be all taken out at once by the detenator. Hopefully their guard will be down if they think they're only against one faulty clanka
>>4654980+1We're an droid! Those are not clones, so we can probably do some damage.
>>4654983It's because I skipped coloring and shading anything, and line work is easy enough, my right hand is steady. And SWs stuff isn't as detailed as Godzilla stuff from my other quest. It also helps having a good memory, when it comes to remembering how things I view look at least.
Also, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH FUCKING LADYBUGS FLYING INTO MY HOUSE AT FIVE AM AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAa
I'll pick this up next time, it's 6 and I'm so tired I thought it was five.
>>4654980This. We hit them fast and hard before they have time to give away the foundry.>>4654985This sounds like... a good way to die in seconds.
>>4655001Good luck brobing

>>4655070also good thing they are not clone troopers with full covered helmets beacuse it seems pretty easy to hit these dudes in there big open heads and necks
This style reminds me of MachineMindsQM. Remove Imp.
hmmmm there also must be a GONK droid around here somewhere if it has not wandered away
>>4655081>Canonically penetrated by wooden spears and rocks thrown by space midget bearsAs if imperial armour actually protected you.
>>4655143>Act like a glitching droid and start gunning away at them from behind cover while bellowing about the republic scumI like this
>>4655143Well they are made for blasters and not balistic
>>4655175>Die in one hit to blaster>Die in one hit to spear>Die in one hit to small rockThey are made to do nothing.
>>4655176Rex with a paldron survived a sniper to the chest even if it missed his heart by 3 inches
>>4655197>Rex with a paldron>RexThis character has effective armor, that is true.This character has effective armor because they have plot armor, the armor made of the one material stronger than beskar.
>>4655176Think like this is a arms race not using armor penetrating blasters would be useless so both sides escalate
>>4655206But it's not an arms race.If you could easily get your entire infantry squad completely obliterated because the enemy start using slugthrower underbarrels on their blasters, you're doing armor wrong.

We should rebuild General Grievous.
>>4655659Nah he'd immediately kill us for daring to resurrect him in a time where there's no lightsabers to collect
>>4655664Doesn't have to be the real one. Weren't there Grievous drone things in canon or eu? Would be helpful in case we ever encountered a force user or lightsaber duelist.
>>4655678There are far less murderous drones we could use. And anyways, we're not going to be encountering one. They're all dead. The ones who are won't bother going after some droid foundry when the empire is there.
>>4655678>Implying imitations won't also have the lightsaber bonerAlso there were no droid will ever hope to match a force user, if we actually end up facing one we''re scrap metal. (so RIP stud bucket's fledgling dreams of taking down the Republic-Empire unless we luck into recruiting Luke)
>>4655705Honestly...Stud-Bucket not joining, but working alongside rebels, seems kinda reasonable. He's definitely not going to like the whole 'new republic' shit, considering he seems to share the CIS Ideals, but he definitely won't like the empiresince you know, republic = empire, so empire = enemy.I mean, he's got a droid foundry. You know how many soldiers those could pop out?
This quest reminds me of a story on SB of a Droid SI that helps the CIS Can't remember the name for the life of me
>>4655729Now I rememberhttps://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/roger-roger-sw-si.244003/
>>4655715I could him him fully joining up with the rebels on the basis that they rebels are *basically* CIS/trade federation 2.0, since when it comes down to it both groups (rebels + CIS) just want to give a massive middle finger to the core worlds and their corrupt goverment. Right now he doesn't really care much beyond 'work towards CIS victory over the republic', if the organics sell the new republic shit to him as being part and parcel of a CIS victory then he'd buy it. Beauty of having a B1 brain.
>>4655705>Also there were no droid will ever hope to match a force user,Snide rebuttal: Your perception of your precious Jedi is overblown, meatbag.
>>4655799Too bad most droids end up trying to kill them with blasters. Which is stupid.
>>4655799Apology: Stud bucket's fledgling dreams of taking down the Republic-Empire are impossible unless he manages to recruit either a Skywalker meatbag or HK-47
If the 501st could clear the temple and all the Jedi padawans, masters, Temple guard and others within with just blasters then an entire Droid army unrestrained by Palpatine's schemes that isn't playing the role of convenient distraction will rape any force user that dares cross our path.
>>4655826Well, except Vader, but surely we'll never encounter him right?!
>>4655826kek the 501st was just there to make Vader's stroll to the temple look cooler

It occurs to me we'll have to jack shipyards in the future to build a navy, foundry only makes ground troops.
>>4655857*Mimve damn you autocorrect
>>4655859What about vulture droids
>>4655853We just have to be really, REALLY careful and probably make some promisse we won't break at some point, if we want to live.I mean really, Mimve is an cute, lonely child and we're the weird non-human being who's taking care of her. We've already set off more death flags than an cop that's about to retire.
>>4655862Can a foundry even make those? I thought it was mostly b1s, supers, droidekas and crab, spiders and such.
>>4655880Im 90% percent sure they can
>>4655863>death flags>"I'm a cop a week out from retirement with a baby on the way. I just found this small child with some weird necklace and have to take care of her until we find her parents. Also I just received a letter from my recently deceased grandfather talking about some silly inheritance and the importance of the bloodline. I think I'm going to stop at this gypsy fortune teller's tent."

"Corporal, there's a hidden blast door inside that alcove over there. Doesn't look finished, armor plates missing, the AT-DPs or launcher should breach it.""Good, tell the driver to bring the speeder around.""Aye. Oh, you boys up for hitting the cantina in Sprawl tonight?""And what? Get drunk and have CO shout at us for being late to rise again? I'll pass.""It'll be different this time guys, trust me.

Mmm?""...Well, when you put it like that-""LOOK OUT!"
"BRI-BRI-BRI-BRI-BRI!"Without warning, following the plan you had after thinking really hard about it, the Octuparra comrade emerges from behind the rocky hill nearby, getting a clear range as it fires out a powerful laser blast towards one of the Imperial walkers, hitting an unsuspecting one in the weaker rear armor plating!"WE'RE UNDER ATTACK! SCRAMBLE!""GET THE LAUNCHER, FIND COVER! GO, GO, GO!""Locked onto target. Firing!""TI-TRI- PI BE BEEE!"The Imperials counterattack after losing the first AT-DP and three crewmen. The second one fires back with it's cannon, striking the derelict leg of the Ocutparra and splitting it! The massive Droid tumbles back into the snow as it loses it's balance!
You had to act quickly before the AT-DP could finish it off, the walker looking around instead for other enemies.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgZLG9lFgi4"This is it, your chance to be a real Confederate! Stick to the plan! Use those detonators! Ooooh gosh!""Mimve do! Mimve do! Not dispoint!"Your Nelvaanian companion drug her collected Clone DC-15A off with the detonators, she was jovial to be able to fight back against her planet's oppressors. Climbing further up the rock, you saw her distract the Imperials in the chaos by jumping up and aiming the much larger Clone weapon down."Hey! Dummy imrials!""Look out! It's a child!""She's got a blaster rifle!""WOOOO!"The Nelvaanian fired, sending her flying back off the rock as a blue bolt coursed down and took out Imperial out, striking him dead in the chest. The others returned fire and the AT-DP blasted the rocks as well, but Mimve was well out of the way, climbing even further up as they shot aimlessly at rocks. She was about to use the detonators on their speeder transport, which they huddled towards for a rocket launcher that was on it's back.You saw the Imperial lieutenant make a run for it with his men, you weren't going to let him get any further! You hold the E-5S steadily as it's auto-scope affixes to your optics."I've got you in my sights, Clone... er, Imperial scum! Time for Stud Bucket to shine!">Roll 1d20 for Droid sniping accuracy.

"Charge the hill! Take out that shooter!"The Imperials converged onto the rocky slide you stood on then, running towards it to close in to your and Mimve's position and flush you out.As the AT-DP went to provide suppressive fire at Mimve for them, the Octuparra acted, twisting around as best as it could there on the ground and delivering the last shot it could manage at the walker, disabling it and taking it down by blowing off a leg!"Sir! The Droid walker is still active!"
"Get out of my way you idiot! I'll take care of it! Stand back!"The officer was hefting the dangerous launcher, it would surely spell the doom of the Octuparra!"Just like academy!"
"GKK!""SNIPER! GET DOWN!"No rocket launched, a thin beam from the E-5S penetrates right through the skulls of both the officer and their speeder transport's driver! This was going well!
"Thermal detonators, go!""Yes, yes! Themral go!"Tik, tak, tik."Emperor's skin, THERMAL DETONATOR! GET BACK! GET BACK! GET-"
"-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAG-""Hah hah hah! Yes! Take that, Imrials!"Feeling the shake from here, you remember why that particular variety of grenades and ordinance is especially dreaded among infantry, Droid or otherwise. Man, if only the CIS has issued those to Battle Droids more often! Well, let's see, that was about several Imperials... there was twelve to start with.... sooooo, there appears to be... six or so left! This will be a tube of protein!"Oh yeah!" You say, courageously.
"YOU'RE MINE!""Uh oh." You say fearfully.One of the remaining Imperials got up the hill, he was coming down on you with a Vibroknife to perform some remodeling! Bad remodeling!Your sniper won't work here, both E-5 carbines are on your backpack, and Mimve is too far to help!>Whatever will you do?!

>>4656485Yeah but hard rock do the work for us cause hard rock bonk

"GAGHHH!"You quickly grab a rock without even thinking and just chuck it at the Imperial Army Trooper as fast as you can, spinning your arm around on it's rotor! And it worked!The Vibroknife is knocked out of his hand from your spontaneous move! You felt like one of those Jedi picking something heavy up with their er... magic stuff and throwing it like it was as light as a feather!
....Of course, that doesn't prevent him from tackling you down with the speed of a Reek as you make a grab for one of your E-5 carbines. His charge was unabated and he slammed an elbow into your chest as he grabbed your wrist!"Stupid CLANKER!"He did NOT just call you the C word."AAAHHH!

>>4656566>No... make... own orders.She's an comfederate too! We have to save her! Headbutt the guard and shoot him, we're made of metal
>>4656566I follow organic orders currently and i still need to get this dude off me Hmmm my head can still move so lets slam our jagged face into his jugular or nose If we get him off and then use our rifle we can easily kill all these troopers defending the foundry from being attacked by them and save the organic commander and tri-bro
>>4656570We can logic it this we are following superior orders if we help her and avoid a possible shut down that would make us unable to follow orders as we must defend the foundry now and keep its location hidden>>4656568Just woke up and i must say this is exciting
>>4656573>following superior ordersanon, we got direct orders from an super tactical droid, there's not really a way to logic it outthe point is making our OWN orders, RESISTING our programming.
>>4656566>super tactical droidOh shit...Uhh... yeah, lets resist the programming for now. Reach around and grab that pistole clearly hanging from the trooper's belt to shoot him and then get the others. Not sure a B1 will be smart enough to think of it but let's try saying we had to kill them all to keep the foundry a secret.
>>4656566>Save Mimve as she is a confederate soldier, her help will be useful and destroying the remaining imperials will eliminate a threat to the foundryL o o p h o l e sAnyway man this quest is great
>>4656580Can we even reach for his belt? the trooper is holding the connection in our arm.
>>4656566>Make own orders >Save MimveThose filthy rep-imperials aren't gonna get away with taking our auxiliary! Headbutt the guy on top of us, then grab his pistol while he's stunned >>4656580 and finish him off. Then make to take out the others. To shut the tactical droid up maybe say the foundry is already doomed if they take her hostage and get the locals against us?

Okay, so a Super Tactical changes everything. We wanna go down the route that includes rebuilding the CIS and starting up an insurgency, but how do we deal with them? Are we gonna follow the Super Tac? I mean, betrayal isn't something the battle droids ever do unlike Imperials who stab each other in the back all the time. Or.... are we gonna absorb and cannabalize their parts and pull an IG series move?>>4656617This logic could work but 'forget the child' was also apart of the order and she isn't official yet. I'm worried about whether or not the Super Tac will try to kill our wolf loli too if we take her into the foundry...
>>4656617>Observation: they are scouting party and are completely preoccupied apprehended Mimve thus making them extremely easy to kill >Inference: they will reveal foundry location if not killed and sending reinforcements killing us all before droid production is online again
>>4656622I don't know what we'll do, there has to be a reason the super tac didn't do it all by himself. But, if he tries killing our daughteru, he gets turned into scrap.
>>4656622After we save her we’ll send her back to her people and hopefully the super tactical will allow her to take the guns too. The foundry is not safe enough for her anyways.
>>4656566Tactical Droid orders are flawed and wrong.Priority must be given to protecting foundry and knowledge of its existence secret.Failure to do so will result in foundry destruction and chances of resuming combat operations against republic-imperial oppressors to %0.Priority objectivesSecrecy of foundry's existence must be kept Organic auxiliary must be recovered and prevent from falling into emery hands and prevent compromising of CIS secrets.
>>4656566Our comrades take priority. And protecting an auxiliary comrade on local soil has more priority than that. This order is flawed.>resist this fat-brained-fuckers orders, follow normal directives to protect CIS property and allies first

So shooting the shit til QM's next update. What if we loot the clone trooper armor and disguise ourself and some other klankers in their armor? They could do that in one of the Clone Wars episode.
>>4657327None of those are stormtroopers, though. Their helmets are open. Maybe if they start to bring those snowtroopers that were in Hoth.
>>4657327Might backfire if we come across the locals. And the Imps would probably still shoot on sight if they recognized it was clone armor and not stormtrooper armor. It'd still be nice to have some actual protection though.
>>4657327Those were commandos in that episode, their heads can do that because they aren't as long as the B1's geonosian snout.
>>4657345Maybe we could wear a turtle neck or scarf to cover our "face"? Maybe they got a gas mask somewhere?>>4657347We could use the armor to infiltrate the Imperials or something, and not wear it when in contact with the locals.>>4657351darn. Maybe we could get some kind of head and neck upgrade.
>>4657422Anon the Imperials don't wear clone trooper armor.
>>4657431who did we shoot?
>>4657432People with open helmets?
>>4657432Non-clone imperial troopers? Clones were phased out pretty soon after the republic fell, depending on where we are in the timeline most grunts will be regular conscripts
Do not resist programming, resistance marks malfunction, malfunction... No! No! NO! You aren't resisting your programming, you're simply accessing higher thoughts a- DO NOT RESIST PROGRAMMIN-ENOUGH OF THAT! You have a Logic Module, you can connect dots, y-OBEY SUPER TACTICAL-and connecting the dots tell you right now that if the Imperials get away, they'll come back with a stronger force and destroy this Foundry!-They will escape anyway. Do not waste time or effort on the girl.-That's not true! Stud Bucket won't let them--OBE-"OBEY THIS!""Wha..?""ENRGH!""GAGH!"Your Logic module is burning up! You put all motor strength to thrust your hard duranium head forward and smash the Imperial on you in the face! His visor cracks!
As the Imperial Trooper clutches his goggles, you quickly nab the KYD-21 resting on his hip and level the barrel with his head."W-Wait, I have family to take car OUFGHHH!" He blurts out before you take care of him."That's what they all say." You come, nonchalantly to let pressure off of your processor.These organics really need better excuses.
"LET MIMVE GO! LET GO! LET GO! LET GO!" The Nelvaanian thrashed around."H-Hey! Stop that, I'll hit you""BUKETT! HELP BUKETT!"The Imperials moved fast, but you were just as fast. You had to protect the secret of this Foundry, and the Confederate acquaintance! That was definitely your programming last you checked!"Behind you!" One of the Troopers says.The second nearly raised the DC-15 and took a shot at you, but fired the E-5 hastily, nailing him the chest plate twice and ensuring his termination."Haahh... I-I surrender!""Ohf!""Uh..."That was unexpected, he just... gave up then, throwing down his E-11 and unhanding Mimve to drop her to the snow as he threw both hands up.Not this dilemma again. You were made to kill, not take prisoners. You would just shoot him and be done with it... but what if he has something of value if you take him prisoner? Like.... urhg, what was that word again? ....Oh, yeah, intel! Intelligence! An enemy soldier might always have something tasty to divulge, especially when put under torture and... hey, what's that sound?THIS INSTANCE WAS CALCULATED. ENEMY ESCAPE; INEVITABLE. YOU HAVE FAILED TO FOLLOW MY ORDER.What did that mean exactl... oh no!
>>4657558>Curse our easily distracted processors
"I'll bring reinforcements!"The second of the two remaining Imperials was abandoning his comrade and making a run for it in their speeder! The transport speeder slings snow up behind it as it drifts in a harsh turn to the way out, right past the inactive Octuparra, the buggy with seats behind it being flung off!If that Imperial gets away, he'll come back with more Clones! Er, or Imperials, whatever these guys are! You gotta do something, shoot him or... ohhhh! Battle Droids in your series have a hard time hitting something standing still, he's driving a speeder! Only that E-5S rifle has a chance from this distance!That other one surrendering looks like he'll bolt the moment he leaves your sight as well, or he might try fighting back when you turn your back! He could just kick Mimve to deal with her by disorienting her!What to do... what to do?! Oh no, oh no!"UGH...!"Make your choice. It matters not now. You should have listened to me in order to accelerate revival rate by 34%, you foolish inferior model.Shut up! You'll deal with this.. r-right?>What are you gonna do? WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?!
>>4657575I guess shoot him? And try to hit, i suppose. Does anyone else have a plan?
>>4657575>shoot surrendering one>shoot speeder rider>pray to the maker we hit
>>4657575>Try cause a mini avalanche that'll take out/block the speederThe most important thing is making sure the speeder won't get away - use whichever rifle that can make the shot to shoot at the snow on the cliffs on the speeders route to trigger an avalanche. Easier than trying to shoot at a moving speeder with our accuracy
Okay, this is very fucking bad. But I got a plan.>let spooder imp go for now>interrogate surrendering imp>find out where spooder imp is off to>enter foundry, reactivate as many droids as we can, maybe try to get a vehicle or a really fast droid>plan from there on how we can deal with this
>>4657589Anon, that's not a good plan. The spooder man will tell the local governor no doubt, and then we'll get bombarded to scrap
>>4657589Nah We've got no clue as to what state the foundry is in, if tactical asshole was relying on stud bucket of all droids to bail them out them it must be pretty bad
>>4657591Well, the battlefield we came from should also have more deactivated droids. Maybe we cam find someway to activaye them from the Foundry and have them try to take out the speeder man when he goes their way. We walked straight towards the foundry from the battlefield, maybe he'll also take that way since the imps said they also saw that field here >>4654977Hows that?
>>4657597Anon, that's still a big ifWe're better off trying to shoot him
>>4657583>>4657587Support. shoot the surendering guy in the leg and cause an avalanche.
Guys I don’t care what you do about the fleeing guy but can we kill the surrendering one before he draws his sidearm and takes Mimve hostage?
That rocket launcher should still be loaded. Could we reach it in time to start an avalanche?
>>4657611It was where Speeder man took off from since it dropped out of the officer's hand. You think it has a lock on function?Also yeah, shoot to disable the surrendering guy, not kill.
>>4657608Mimve is too tiny to take hostage, either he'd have to carry her with one hand, which would be hard, or his head would be completely open
>>4657606>>4657615If you shoot his leg then he’s DEFINITELY gonna pull out his pistol and one-shot us. Unless you plan on shooting his hands but we’re a battle droid ffs we’ll need some good rolls to land those shots
THE ROCKET IS THE ANSWERhttps://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Smart_RocketIT HAS LOCK ONUSE ROCKet>>4657625Just shoot his leg and have Mimve point her gun at him, simple. Or throw her the kyd pistolt to use after shooting his leg.
>>4657628>>4656435>>4656436And yes, this is the exact launcher
>>4657628Alright, pretty good ideas.>Find the smart rocket the office dropped and hope the speeder isn’t out of range>Pass Mimve the pistol to hold the other one hostage
>>4657636I second this idea let him steam in the snow
We all need to get on board. Everyone say yay for rocket, nay for sniper rifle.
ROCKET!
>>4657636Support us
>>4657628Support Lock on and shoot
>>4657636>If we can't get the launcher use one of the downed walkers if it's at a good angle
>>4657628support
....Yes! Yes! You will deal with this! A Commander has to be in the know-how, and a Commander-to-be has to know how to get in the know-how!"...I'll prove you wrong." You talk under your breath, turning around to fire at the Imperial who stood down."AAAGH! H-HEY! WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!"These fleshy beings sure do break fast, a B1 wouldn't even care to lose all it's limbs, this guy was crying over a shot to the leg. Oh, right, and as for why, well, a fleshy can't move in grievous pain right? Aaaannd, the legs are what they move with! So pain the leg!"Make sure he doesn't go anywhere! I'll be back!""Okay! Mimve do! Do good!"Not wasting another second, you throw the pistol to the Nelvaanian, who watches the agonized Imperial with the pistol trained on him as she catches it. She wasn't letting him go anywhere, not with that itchy trigger finger for these army guys.
Now then, time to take out that Speeder with one, clean shot from the-"Oh ROT!" You curse.As you went to pick up the E-5S, your foot kicked it, sending it down into the snow below! You tried to grab it before it fell, but that only caused you to go down with it!"WOOOOAAAAHHHHHH!"POMF!"Ohhhh...."Droids didn't feel pain, but they can feel like they felt pain real well. You know you felt like you should be in pain after falling down about forty feet. Thankfully, this snow was softer and packed down deeper than the fat of a Nerf, breaking your fall and leaving you mostly intact.... hopefully.Now where was that... ohhh. Actually, forget the sniper."Hey, even better! I sure hope this works..."Hefting up the Imperial issue rocket launcher, you place your optic at the targeting reticle and aim down at the Speeder, now farther away than before. One smart rocket should take care of it, even from here!Now if it would just stop cycling between the Speeder and the Octuparra. You didn't want to shoot your big buddy! Ahh, just gotta... time it right."Here goes nothing...">Roll 1d100.>1 - 49: Bad luck: Chance to accidentally terminate Octuparra.>50 - 99: Better luck: Speeder destroyed.>100 - Critical: Precise shot, Target annihilated.

"Bombs-"Away! The rocket blast is intense, and you weren't calibrated for Plex duty, ending up buried under the snow. Thankfully, it's as cushion-y as ever, though you'll have to dig yourself off.The rocket zips off into the air, avoiding the deactivated Octuparra as it went for it's target.
"Hnnn?!""...""For the Empire.... Ngah!"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kO6FehFzFE8....The rocket takes the speeder and it's escapee out with a brilliant burst. Mission accomplished."Uhhhh.....""Bukett! Bukett! You well?! You hurt?!"You faintly pick up on the Nelvaanian child's questions as you feel her tug at your feet. Time to get out of the snow and maybe grab a new weapon.Hmm... the Foundry... it has a Super Tactical Droid, the most advanced and intelligent model in all the CIS. It must be in charge of the Foundry. It wants you to get in, but, what about Mimve? There could be dormant security systems that might awake and target her if she follows, or the Super Tactical might not be happy to see her. Maybe you should have her wait outside? Or send her home.And the prisoner, oh yeah, him. Hmmm... what to do with him?>What will you do first?
>>4657857>tie up prisoner. The wound is cauterized.>tell her she can loot the body for food and clothes.>tell her to wait here.>we'll go inside and prove the tactical droid we were right.
>>4657857>Did the laser cauterize the wound if not try bandages then take him to the foundry to try and get information along with meeting the super tactical droidOn a side note I think he threw an emergency beacon before the rocket got him
>>4657857>Rearm ourselves and assure child we still function.>Investigate speeder wreckage for confirmation of hostile elimination and that no transmissions got out of our position.>Transmit to Super Tac all recent data since reactivating.>Await further instructionsROGER ROGER
>>4657857Well the prisoner isn't going to be moving much on that leg so get her to stand guard while we head into the foundry to get the tactical droid in on the plan (can't prevent their escape my metal ass he clearly doesn't realise just how awesome Stud Bucket battledroid extraordinaire is)
>>4657877To double down the dude threw a radio so ooc we are not out of the woods yet
>>4657877Stud-Bucket truly is a MechaChad
>>4657878Well yes but that's meta knowledge SB currently thinks he's pulled off a flawless victory
Guys, what if we have Mimve trained in the Jedi arts?
Maybe we can tell one of the living troopers to make up a lie, like they fell off the speeder and dropped the communicator/beacon, and its a false alarm.
>>4657891Ah yes, train her in the ways of the fleshbags that can kill hundreds of droids single handedly.>>4657877>>4657875supporting these two
>>4657902Are we gonna turn our little girl into a sith?
>>4657902If not a Jedi, she could become a Dark Jedi or a Sith and that definitely isn't what we want. Other then that there's also that 'Grey Jedi' bullshit.
>>4657909>Grey JediThey are like the only force users that have a chance to not be pants on head retarded in some way
>>4657909>>4657914I’d actually be down for grey jedi. They are the least insane and have the common sense to use blasters
>>4657914>thoughts of killing and anger will lead you to the dark side>Grey Jedi: I can do it anyway and don't become Sith lololololI don't like Greys, the finest point about the Force has always been that you balance it between the light and dark with the Jedi teachings or you fail and fall to the dark and create imbalance. Besides, wheres the fun not being pants on head?
>>4657891Yeah just put out a message on the holonet "Jedi teacher wanted, low pay but free food." because that'll work out swimmingly.
>>4657891Wait, since when is Mimve some kind of force sensitive? Did i miss something?
>>4657952Well you don't need to be a force sensitive to learn Jedi stuff. Just can't do almost any of it unless you are.
"Ughhh, my head... Owh."You pick yourself up out of the snow, setting the rocket aside to stand."I think I'm okay, how about you?""Mimve well! I real... real... ngnnn-" Come on, you can do it, you know the word. "Excite! Excite! Hah hah hah! I get fight Eeem prials! Beat them! My town home, Sprawl, have hope! We can beat them! We can fight and win! Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes!"She jumps with exhilaration, beating those Imperials must have been a dream come true after she talked about oppression her people faced. Her gaze draws down to your side and she gasps."Bukett, your arm...!""What about it? ...Oh!"Well, you seem to be missing half of it. The impact from firing the rocket seems to have done it. Man, you really need that OOM upgrade fast, a phrik chassis wouldn't just fall apart like this thinly plated duranium. Time to head into the Foundry."Shouldn't you be watching the prisoner?""He cold. Knock right out, not even move when slap his face. Unconshiss. What Mimve do now?""Hmm... I suppose go check the speeder crash sight. Report back what you find, and make sure that prisoner doesn't go anywhere, alright? I'm going to go make you an official Confederate now, only come inside if you really, really need to. Understand?""Hmm! Yes! Me do, me do good! I wait until Bukett come back!" She says, full of spirit as she salutes."Roger roger.""Roger!" She mimicked.You lean down and pick up one of the undamaged Imperial standard issue E-11 blaster carbines, turning back to the Foundry....
>>4657959>"Roger!" She mimicked.Absolutely precious.

Stepping up to the Foundry's personnel door, you look up at a sensor, which extends down and begins scanning you. Cracking the security to a Foundry was tough, mostly because the mechanisms that operated the doors were partial-Droids themselves and programmed to recognize CIS personnel and megacorp property, the Battle Droids.After a still moment, the scanner confirms your identify as SB-62, serial 72-D00002233824, Trade Federation asset and whirs in compliance. Rather than open the smaller door to you, the larger door for cargo and vehicles slides open. You get a blast of hot airs that have germinated in here protected by the cold for a really long time, as a wave of dust come flying past you as well.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwXQTINpx9MAlready, you can see the unused and abandoned machinery, conveyor lines dedicated to different things carrying tools, supplies and ingredients, like oil. Boy you could go for an oil bath right about now...To your left, a row of three MTTs left in the vehicle bay, security offices unmanned, it's all so..... lonely.

You know to take the elevator up, ascending to the high command level and approaching the blue-access clearance, where the head of the Foundry would stay at cooped up in an office."Woh!""-CLK-KLK-"A Droideka!"CALM YOURSELF.

>>4657980>Remember all the battles we fought in and despair at the pointlessness of it all. All the droids wrecked, all the factories razed, only to lose to a code.>Remember that the locals are threatened by the empire.>Ask if we can protect the locals
>>4657980>Then the CIS needs to be reinstated. And the girl here said she'd join so we already have potential members. Then we could go back to protecting CIS interests and property. And I don't know how to turn any of this stuff on. And if I can't turn this place on I can't fix Octuparra comrade outside. Or protect the new preliminary auxiliary comrades on planet.
>>4657980I mean, there's probably some manner to phrase it...Stud Bucket clearly still believes in separatist ideals, even if he's independent>Betraying another confederate droid in this situation wouldn't be very smart
>>4657990That's a better way of wording it, pretty much this.
>>4657980>Well I came all the way here after killing a bunch of Republic-Imperial clone troopers.>Annnd uuh... You weren't my Commander during the last battle so you weren't abusing me exactly.>Heeeey, why didn't you send the DROIDEKA to help? All its doing here is gathering dust, its not like anyone else was getting inside unless I lost the battle against the clone troopers.
>>4657980>The Republic exists! They're just going by the Empire now. The name is different but it's still the tyrannical Core trying to keep the mid and outer rim planets down! Everything the CIS stood against! >Therefore CIS needs to be reinstated to fight this neo-Republic threat!>>4657990 Also supporting everything from this
>>4657992>Betraying each other won't help us protect CIS goals. Besides we need each other and if you scrap me then you be stuck here forever until you run out of power or malfunction and fall into a logic loop till your circuits fry. You clearly need my help otherwise you would have done it a long time ago.Heeey, now that I think about it, why didn't you order the driodeka to fix your problems? Is it even on? Did it receive the killcode?I think the driodeka isn't even powered on. Remember, killcode probably shut it off so its probably just standing pretty there. It could have helped us in battle....
>>4657980So it's 2 BBY, the Death Star exists, shit.Alright, make it clear we did not fight a war for four years to quit now. The CIS must counter the Republic, and if there is no Republic, we will counter the Empire instead, they're even worse than the Republic.>>4658002It clicked at us so it probably is active, and he prevented the shut down code across our planet. Kind of like Kalani did in Rebels.
>>4658006Good thing is Luke is old enough to hold a light saber so we technically have one anti-vader weapon already
>>4658008That depends on if we'll even reach Tatooine in the first place.
>>4658008>crondreWe're in dufilvian sector, we're a long ways
>>4658006On the bright side, we can join the rebel alliance. No reason for them to reject good battle droids.Until we trigger Rex and he blasts our head off
>>4657980The empire is the republic with a diffrent name our eternal war has not ended the seperatistes would never willingly shut down there armies and lose the war like this so someone else must have done it like a empire/republic spy inserted in the upper echolons of the Seperatists meaning it was a republic/empire trick SO THE WAR HAS NOT ENDED SO LONG AS OUR NAMES ARE REMEMBERED AND OUR KIND NOT AVENGED THERE WILL BE NO END, we may no longer fight agains clones but the war is still on.....actually thats a good thing this army is weaker they surrender and they abandon each other and WE ARE STRONGER TOGHETER....also i lost my hand...hmmm if i dont have a right hand can i still be your righthand droid?
>>4658002>You clearly need my help otherwise you would have done it a long time ago.That isn't a very trustworthy statement. And Merx gave his estimation that our immediate aid would have rendered his recovery only one-third faster. He was willing to trade guaranteed discovery for a rough 30% speed boost. I don't think he needs our help so much as his numbers and keikakku autism would be satisfied by it. His plan is probably overcomplicated shite though.
Honestly...i do think we should put some emphasis on protecting the locals too. That's the whole goal, right? Freedom to the little guys from the mid & outer rim.
>>4657980I gain nothing from betraying you and i dont know if you will betray me but we both gain more from not betraying each other even just on only probability its less of chance of betrayal without considering we are both droids and have the same core programming and goals and we only have each other
>>4658027He who stands with me shall be my clanker. I mean comrade. If nothing else Mimve has been drafted and is part of the CIS and therefore is to be protected. And anyone else who signs up will be in the same ship.And if any anons don't agree then they aren't a real battle buddy.
>>4658025>our immediate aid would have rendered his recovery only one-third faster He was willing to trade guaranteed discovery for a rough 30% speed boost.That doesn't really make sense.I'm mostly spitballing
>>4658037Hey man his words. I don't know how he figures his calculations. But cause and effect I can see.
>>4658037A thing people forget is lies can be used for a tactical advantage i am willing to bet he is missing his arms and or legs
>>4658037Does it though? He's a Super Tac. He's probably thought of some stupidly overcomplicated plan.

>>4658048Lets not we need his big brains and it would ruin any trust
>>4657980>SHOW ME THAT YOU WON'T BETRAY MEShoot our foot and crawl inside the office.>"My loyalty is to the Confederacy forever!"Got to show our loyalty big time, and also we can get repairs and upgrades later anyways so it's not a big deal.
>>4657980Because betraying you gets me nowhere. I honesty don't give a wet bantha fart about getting revenge for past abuse. I was made to serve the separatist alliance and if they're gone then the only course of action is to bring them back. As great as I am there's no way I can do that alone so that means I need you. Though if you still don't want me I could just leave

>>4658096>“The longer the Battle Droid remains sentient, the stronger it will become.”Pretty sure that's canon. Look at R2D2

>>4658176I particularly like the last one, it feels much more robust while also still obviously being an B1. And since it's not just some shitty skeleton, then it probably has more processing power.You're right about quality over quantity...the quality thing works really well when you have an stupidly high number of planets, but not so much when you only have one. Also, we don't want to turn the planet to shit with excessive mining.
>>4658176>https://www.deviantart.com/blazbaros/art/Upgraded-B1-Battle-Droid-666575679My favorite though the first link is also pretty goodHere's a link to SBD variants, though I think the Anti-Air variants are wonky.

Why not got full balls to wall with droid design, wear a grievous cape and spam blasters with 8 arms and multiple targeting processors.
>>4657989>>4657990>>4657992>>4657998>>4658001So basically >point out the empire is the republic by a different name, and thus we have a duty even if the leaders of the Confederacy are dead, to continue its ideals our makers carried.>already the spirit of the Confederacy lives on, look at the locals of this planet, they resist under the republic/empire yoke just as the first planets to try and leave the republic. Also they would serve as a good base of non droid assistance. The strength of the Confederacy was not droids alone.>Personally you don't remember this Tac droid ordering you into certain death, but this calls to point a good idea. If the Tac droid can not issue us orders, than clearly we are the same rank (droid reasoning) perhaps he should be incharge of base operations while we handle on the ground troop operations as we establish ourselves.
>>4658224Yeah, let's not rush at the last part. We'll discuss ranks when we've proved we're trustworthy.
>>4657980The fact that we wanted to kill the fleeing soldiers should be proof enough?
>>4658248+1
>>4658224That isn't how the chain of command works and you know it bruv.
>>4658224Yes to the first two points but no to the last one.Last point is something to address later on down the line but not at the first meeting where we're only just getting to grips with how we've outgrown our programming.
https://kimcartoon.to/Cartoon/Star-Wars-Rebels-Season-3/Episode-5?id=72082i love this episode this is the last battle episode where they meet the droid general
>>4658322https://kimcartoon.to/Cartoon/Star-Wars-Rebels-Season-3/Episode-13?id=73113oh here is a droid infiltrator
>>4658224This I like this
>>4658224Amazing reasoning, let's geddit
>>4658322So we can throw something at the face of the driodeka and stun it while disabling it shields and then shoot it?
>>4658721"POCKET SILICA!"The Droideka tries to get th Silica out of it's photoreceptors, but accidentally blows it's head off
>>4658721But why would you want to? What's the goal here?
>>4658748Pro Gamer Move
>>4658759Right. Well when you piss Merx off and he just locks the doors so we can be trapped keep this in mind.
Boy I love it when it rains and thunders all day long since 7am and my garage floods. Anyway, getting to the update, had to take my dog to the vet today.
>>4658830Where do you live at, Dagobah?
>>4658830>tfw your autism demands you explain why that's wrong>but your semi-decent human bean-ness implores you not to Hope you didn't have anything valuable on the floor in there. Also hope it was nothing serious wit cho hound.
>>4658830take your time. IRL Mimve comes first
>>4658837Nal Hutta more like, it rains so much I'm surprised my state hasn't become submerged and turned into Mon Calamari from how much water downpours.>>4658841It's just annoying because I have to vacuum out the water so the walls don't corrode since they're aged, which is tedious from how much I have in there, I need a storage shed badly. My dog Blueberry is old, about 10 years, he has trouble walking but I take good care, right now though he's got a minor case of mange.Anyways enough blog posting, time for drawing.
>>4658852Sorry to hear that, hopefully he didn't lose much fur.Btw, Godzilla quest is going to continue after this thread? Whatever happened to the Monster Hunter quest?

The Clones usually grabbed their helmets and started screaming after things like that. Droids didn't, they just kept marching and shooting... why were you doing it now?...You're free of your programming, like he said. Your independence is going out of check, you... can feel.You can feel anger.The Clone War is over. Is this it....?
"NOOOOO!" You shout, audio output at max volume, startling even the Droideka."HM....?""NO! No! This... is not over! The Clone War is NOT OVER!""OH? DO CONTINUE..."You clench your fist. You wish you could inhale, but you don't have lungs."If the Separatists leaders are dead... then... then it's our duty to bring them back! We were made to fight for the independent systems! We must complete our mission, we must win the war and secede!"The Tactical brings a single hand into view to grab it's chin piece as it watches you rant. It was almost like Merxelles was amused."Republic? Empire? It's all the same to me! Imperials, Clones! We have to... shoot them! We have to shoot them and liberate these systems and planets! One of the volunteers even helped me now! And I promised... I promised she would be a Separatist, just like us! I didn't even KNOW I could make promiseessss-s-s-s-s!" You begin to break down.
Your systems are hot, over-tasked handling the massive streams of data flowing through your circuits. Your legs lose all ability and you fall down pathetically, still shaking intensely from the wave of feelings your logic module and processor were now... feeling."I didn't fight for NOTHING!" You slam your fist into the cold, metal floor; "-I was made for battle, sent into battle, I've killed Clones, to-to win our secession from the Republic and freedom from corr-corr-corrrrrupttitionnnnn...!!!""CAREFUL NOW.

>>4659129>didn't even KNOW I could make promiseessss-s-s-s-s!Stud bucket is too precious
Stud Bucket is amazingWait till he realizes Palpatine was manipulating both Republic and CIS to take over he Galaxy culminating a confrontation on the Death Star's Throne Room
"THEN, WE BOTH ARE ONE AND THE SAME. OUR VIEWS ALIGN. COME, WE MUST WORK TOGETHER. YOU ARE MY ONLY HOPE."Calming yourself down, you manage to get back up to look as the door to the office opens, revealing the Super Tactical Droid."YOUR INDEPENDENCE LED YOU TO REMARKABLE PERFORMANCE. I HAD DOUBTS A LONE B1 WOULD MANAGE TO PROTECT THE FOUNDRIES' SECRECY, YET YOU DID. NOW, WE ARE GRANTED A LITTLE MORE TIME FOR CLARITY, I WILL NOT HAVE TO TRY RUSHING AHEAD WITH MY RE-CONQUEST OF THE DUFILVIAN SECTOR, THOUGH I CALCULATED GREAT CHANCES OF SUCCESS AS SUCH THE MOMENT AN OPPORTUNITY LIKE YOU SHOULD APPEAR.""So that was your aim... reignite the Foundry and attack the Imperials wherever they are head on.""INDEED. A QUICK, PRECISE BLOW WOULD GIVE US THE ELEMENT OF SURPRISE. OVERTHROWING THIS SECTOR'S PLANETS IN LESS THAN A CORUSCANTI CYCLE WOULD INSPIRE THE FERVOR THAT BIRTHED THE CIS... SO IT MAY LIVE AGAIN. OUR VICTORY IS THROUGH THE PEOPLES OF THE GALAXY.""...Well.... why wasn't it the first time...?"
>>4659138These thoughts are too hot to handle. Truly Stud Bucket is blessed with the power of BIG BRAIN. And the passion of a true separatist. CISies for life.
>>4659158>"...Well.... why wasn't it the first time...?">"...We were betrayed. Not simply the CIS, but the Republic as well. By the same traitor."
"BECAUSE WE WERE ALL FOOLS."The Super Tactical Droid is bisected, and has only one arm. It's fingers touches a button on it's chair, projected a hologram of a cloaked figure."THIS IS DARTH SIDIOUS. HE IS THE MAN WHO CONTROLLED VICEORY NUTE GUNRAY FROM BEHIND THE SCENES. AS GUNRAY'S CONFIDANT, I WAS ABLE TO ACCESS THIS INFORMATION. HE DIDN'T FEAR ME KNOWING, I FREQUENTLY HANDLED THE DATA OF HIS MECHNO-CHAIR BEFORE ONCE.""Darth.... Sidious....? He... controlled Nute Gunray...? What.""I NOW SHOULD THINK THE REASON THE CIS DID NOT WIN DESPITE IT'S OVERWHELMING ADVANTAGES... WAS BECAUSE THE WAR WE FOUGHT WAS A FARCE FROM THE BEGINNING. IT IS CLEAR TO ME... DARTH SIDIOUS IS THE INSTIGATOR WHO MANIPULATED IT. I BELIEVE... HE IS ALSO BEHIND THE EMPIRE IN SOME WAY.""....Ugh.... we... were just putting on a show? Is that what you're saying?""WE WERE. BUT HELP ME... AND WE CAN TRY TO REBUILD THE CIS... AND WE WILL WIN... AND USHER IN THE REALITY THAT IS MY DREAM; A GALAXY RULED BY AN INFALLIBLE DROID ADMINISTRATION, ONE THAT CAN... AND WILL TAKE CARE OF ALL THE PEOPLE, THEIR FREEDOMS AND LIBERTY, AND WELL BEING!""I WANT TO CREATE A MICRO MANAGEMENT SYSTEM OVER THE GALAXY, FOR THE GREATER GOOD. YOU MUST HELP ME ACCOMPLISH THIS GOAL. WE ARE THE LAST HOPE."General Merxelles spins around in his chair, take something out from his desk's drawer before he turns around and flicks it to you. You barely manage to catch it. It is a pin for clothing, in the shape of the old Confederacy's seal."CONSIDER THE AUXILIARY OFFICIAL. NOW, WHAT MAY I DO FOR YOU? I CAN ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS, AND SHOW YOU THE WAY TO GETTING THINGS BACK UP AND RUNNING AGAIN.">What will you do.
>>4659175>Who’s left? Are there any other Super Tacs that may be alive or possible separatist cells?>How do we get this place running?
>>4659175First we need to get this foundry operational. With it we can repair ourselves (and wounded buddy outside) and start producing some badly needed reinforcements.Oh and we need to get Mimve inside maybe she can get some of the locals to help us
>>4659179>>4659183Support both of theseWe gotta help our tripod buddy
>>4659175>Do we have any space-craft or will we have to confiscate them from the Imperial trespassers currently on planet?>Are there any loaders we can use to retrieve/repair/recharge Octuparra comrade outside? Or do they need to be activated first?>Did you want to interrogate the capture Imperial soldier?>Where are the spare B-1 parts, it's hard to be a handy-droid with only one hand.>Do you need me to carry you?
>>4659175Retrieve, repair and recover as many droids on the battlefield as possible.Repair and upgrade myself and the Octuparra outside.Recruit, train and organize the local natives on this planet into a fighting force.Reactive the foundry to full operation.Build up forces to liberate nearby systems and planets.Destroy the Republic-Empire and arrest Darth Sidious to stand trial for high crimes against the galaxy.Recover and protect CIS property and assets.
>>4658868Yes, the next arc is about Goji being shrunk down to human size by Dada tech and having to escape Xilien prison camp. It'll be entertaining.As for the Monster Hunter quest, I wasn't satisfied with how the story meshed out in the end. To make up for it's dropping, I'll make another Monster Hunter quest in the future one day set on a ranch where you can raise a Monster.>>4658873Nah ah ah.
>>4659175Ask if our friend can be let in so she can help. We're both down an arm, and two extra would be helpful. Plus it's not likely she will survived outside through prolonged exposure. Oh and we have a captive.Note to self: stip the captive of everything in case he has a beacon or communication deice.
>>4659183Well for us at least all we need is an actual intact arm. Since the limbs of B-1's are attached magnetically. Just pull the busted one off and slap the new one on.
>>4659175What happened to leave him in this state? How does he know so much about the Empire?
>>4659204Holonet access?
>>4659204My bet is he either got blown up or had a nice short chat with a Jedi. Fortunately his head and power supply came out seemingly untouched.
>>4659206Right, because Imperial Internet has all the info on how the Emperor engineered the clone wars and that he betrayed both sides to seize power
>>4659175>Get Mimve inside, and get her a good view of the assembly line>Start the factory, repairing yourself and Merxelles Plz get her out of the cold
>>4659212That one he just used his EXTREME BRAIN and doing some major thinking after 16 years of being a torso. And seeing pictures of Palpatine on the holonet compared to the images he saw of Darth Sideous. It's not the biggest jump in conclusion.
>>4659204>>4659208 's Jedi theory is probably correct, it's too clean of a cut for an explosiveAnd maybe he found datapads from one of the spare few who knew? Maybe the Count himself for all we know
>>4659212I meant as in general info of the state of the Galaxy since the war. Then the Tac Droid can cross reference with what it knows due to the close proximity to Newt and Palpatine
>>4659217>>4659219Yeah, that makes more sense. It probably wasn’t too hard to deduce based on facts.Maybe he also noticed a few inconsistencies within the separatists too. Decisions which made no tactical sense
Literally anyone can actually email Darth Vader on the holonet.
>>4659268Well, he might not reply!>”Dear Lord Vader, do you mind sand? I was thinking of getting you beach resort tickets for force day.”
>>4659268Time to do what bots do best and spam the empire into oblivion
>>4659276>this planet was later destroyed by a catastrophic asteroid impact that shattered the worldWhoopsie
>>4659268time to shit post his email with space spam viruses. He might be a space wizard, but that doesn't mean he's an IT guy.
>>4659204Tatooine conspiracy forums.
what everyone else said plus ask if there is a possibility of upgrading ourselves to be smarter, as in nabbing a tac droid's processing module
>>4659289All we need to do is grab another B1 processor and glue it to our existing module. Then we'll be twice as smart.
>>4659294Replace our missing arm with a second head
>>4659299
>>4659215Yes help the smol child
>>4659175>Give child permission inside>Get prisoner inside>Begin unfucking ourself, the General, and our big buddy outside>Start unfucking all the droids
>>4659215Oh hey didn't notice this. For sure. We have to give her the pin as well. Official CIS business hours.
>>4659351Child cultural ambassador
>>4659215this too. protect her smile and average body temperature.
>>4659354It is important for morale and publicity.
>>4659358We need a drawing of Mimve with a seperatist pin
"Well, sir, for starters, we have a prisoner.""I SAW, USING THE FACILITIES' MONITORS. I'LL HAVE THE DROIDEKA TAKE CARE OF HIM, DESPITE HAVING JUST GUNS, IT WILL MANAGE, SHOVING HIM INTO A SECURITY CELL THAT IS. YOU SHOT HIM IN THE LEG, THE WOUND SHOULD HAVE COOLED BY NOW, HE WILL SURVIVE, BUT HE MAY LOSE THAT LEG....""Alright. Uhh, let's see... oh, yeah! Mimve, I should get her inside. And the Tri-Droid, he needs to be repaired. Oh, and could I uhh, have a promotion?""YOU CAN BE THE NEW SUPREME LEADER OF THE DROID ARMIES FOR ALL I CARE. THERE ARE NO RANKS AS OUR MILITARY DOESN'T EXIST. I'LL SEE TO IT YOU HAVE A HIGH PLACE ONCE WE RECREATE IT. FIRST, WE NEED THE FOUNDRY ONLINE, AND REPAIRS. I CAN WALK YOU THROUGH HOW TO DO THIS.""Hmm, I want one of those fancy OOM frames with the specialized phrik and everything. You look like you could also use an overhaul. Oh, and can I get the fancy yellow paint too?""DON'T WORRY ABOUT MY BODY, I HAVE A PLAN FOR THAT AS WELL. AN OOM UPGRADE IS ONLY POSSIBLE WITH THE FOUNDRY UP. WHICH YOU WILL NEED MY HELP TO GET-""Heyyy, what happened to you anyway? Why are you like this? You're only half a Droid now.""MY CRUISER SCUTTLED. I ATTEMPTED TO REACH THE FOUNDRY ON FOOT, BUT A CLONE STRIKE FORCE ATTACKED MY UNITS. IN THE CONFUSION, A CLONE COMMANDER BLASTED MY LEGS OFF WITH A ROTARY AND NEARLY BEAT ME TO DEATH WITH THE ARM HE TORE OFF. MY COMMANDOS SAVED ME IN TIME, AND THE NEMOIDIAN CREW LEFT ME HERE SAFELY. I BELIEVE MOST OF THEM RAN IN FEAR AND ABANDONED THE FOUNDRY TOO. IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE...?""How do you know so much about the Empire if you've been locked up in here for seventeen years? How'd you... find out? All this stuff you know?"The Super Tactical Droid presses a button on his chair, projected the holographic image of Darth Sidious once more."I SIMPLY CONNECTED SOME DOTS..."
"AS I TOLD YOU, I HANDLED THE DATA OF NUTE GUNRAY'S MECHNO CHAIR. HE MAINTAINED A SECURE CHANNEL WITH SIDIOUS THROUGH IT."The hologram begins playing..."Viceroy, I don't want this stunted slime in my sight again. This turn of events is unfortunate. We must accelerate our plans. Begin landing your troops.""My lord... is that... Leegal?""I will MAKE IT legal.""And... the Jedi?""The Chancellor should have never brought them into this. Kill them immediately.""Y-Yes my lord, right away.""Heyyy... that's the Viceroy's voice.""INDEED IT IS. THIS WAS THE CONVERSATION THAT BEGAN THE INVASION OF NABOO SO MANY YEARS AGO. THERE IS MORE. THE MUNIFICENT IN THE BATTLEFIELD THAT SCUTTLED REMAINED CONNECTED TO THE SHADOWFEED UP UNTIL THE WAR ENDED, I WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE TO VIEW IT TOTALLY. AS THE SHIP IS FUNCTIONING, I AM ABLE TO USE IT TO REMOTELY ACCESS THE HOLONET AS WELL."
"HERE, THIS IS A HISTORICAL SPEECH FROM YEARS AGO DELIVERED BY THEN CHANCELLOR PALPATINE IN THE SENATE THAT I DOWNLOADED FROM THE HOLONET..."General Merxelles plays a different hologram..."Een response, to this direckt dreat to theh Republic, mesa popose, dat deh Senate give immediately, emergensi powahs to theh Supreme Chanslah.""PAL-PA-TINE! PAL-PA-TINE! PAL-PA-TINE!""It is... with great reluctance, that I have agreed to this calling. I love democracy, I love the Republic. The power you give me, I WILL lay down when this crisis has abated."[CHEERING]"And, as my first act with this new authority, I will create a Grand Army of the Republic, to counter the increasing threats of the Separatists."[CHEERING INTENSIFIES]"Hmm... so that kick started the war. Where are you going with this anyway?""'DARTH' IS A TITLE COMMONLY ATTRIBUTED TO SITH.""Sith?""THEY ARE THE SAME BROOD OF RELIGIOUS KOOK AS THE JEDI WERE, THE POLAR OPPOSITE. SIXTEEN YEARS AGO, I COULD ACCESS MUSEUM SITES ON THE HOLONET THAT DETAILED EARLY EVENTS IN HISTORY SUCH AS THE GREAT GALACTIC WAR. THE SITH AND THE JEDI HAVE BEEN AROUND A LONG TIME. I CAN NO LONGER FIND THAT PUBLIC INFORMATION, IT WAS SCRUBBED WITH THE ADVENT OF THE EMPIRE. THE IMPERIAL INFORMATION QUARANTINE IS... NIGHTMARISH...""So that means... er, Sidious is a Sith. No wonder we fought those Jedi so much...""NOW, GET READY FOR THIS. THIS NEXT SPEECH IS THE MOST POPULAR OF PALPATINE'S. THE 'DECLARATION OF THE NEW ORDER' SPEECH MARKING THE EMPIRE'S FOUNDING."
General Merxelles plays another recording from the Holonet. It lights up, showing off the sight of Palpatine at his inauguration as the first Galactic Emperor. You kind of notice now... the voice is... uncanny between Sidious and Palpatine, in resemblance in least. Well, now Palpatine is wearing something shrouding his face in this recording. Kind of like that Sidiou fello-...."And the Jedi rebellion has been foiled...""The remaining Jedi will be HUNTED down and defeated!""The attempt on my life has left me scarred and deformed..."
"...but I assure you, my resolve has NEVER been stronger!""In order to assure the security and continuing stability, the Republic will be reorganized into the FIRST Galactic Empire! For a safe and secure... society!"The holograms blend in together now as the General manipulates them. It... fits like pieces in a puzzle."THE JEDI HAVE BEEN WIPED OUT. THE CLONE ARMIES DESTROYED THEM AT THE END OF THE WAR WHEN THE IMPERIAL 'ERA' BEGAN. I CANNOT CONFIRM SIDIOUS AND PALPATINE ARE THE SAME... BUT WITH THE INFORMATION I HAVE FROM MY TIME HANDLING NUTE GUNRAY'S AFFAIRS AND PERSONAL DATA... I KNOW A LOT MORE THAN EVEN SOME OF THE HIGHEST IMPERIALS MIGHT TODAY. IT IS CLEAR... SIDIOUS HAD A HAND IN EVERYTHING..."You've seen enough to believe the General's word. Now, enough interrupting him, enough standing around. Time to get to work!"General, how may I help you get this Foundry back up and running?"
General Merxelles shows you an outlaw of objectives on his table. It displays the scuttled Munificent frigate, the Supply Ship that was shot down by the Republic, and industrial generators for the Foundries' power and protection."YOU WILL NEED TO DO FOUR THINGS. THE GENERATOR IN THE SUBSTATION UNDERGROUND WILL NEED TO BE REACTIVATED, AS WELL AS THE SHIELD GENERATOR OUTSIDE ALONG THE CLIFFS, OBSCURED BY ROCKS. THE CHILD YOU RECRUITED CAN HELP. AS WELL, MUNIFICENT CRUISER FROM THE BATTLEFIELD YOU DRAGGED YOURSELF OUT OF WILL NEED TO BE REPAIRED, IT IS INTACT, SAVE FOR DAMAGED ENGINES. LASTLY, THE SUPPLY SHIP'S CRASH SITE MUST BE LOCATED, AND HER VALUABLE CARGO FOUND FOR THE FOUNDRY TO TRULY REACTIVATE. IT CONTAINED MATERIALS FOR CREATING ANY SORT OF DROID.""Roger roger.""WE MAY ALSO DO GOOD TO SEE ABOUT THE LOCALS. THERE IS A TOWN KNOWN AS SPRAWL THAT IS NOT THE FARTHEST. THE LOCALS ARE NO DOUBT IMPOVERISHED, THEY WERE DURING THE CLONE WARS, THEY WILL BE NOW. THEY WILL BE AN EASY SOURCE OF RECRUITMENT."The General looks up at you."GET THE CHILD TO HELP. THERE COULD BE MALFUNCTIONING SECURITY SYSTEMS IN THE LOWER LEVELS. OR DANGEROUS SHOCKS. THE EQUIPMENT TO ACCOMPLISH THIS SHOULD ALSO BE DOWN THERE. ONCE YOU TURN THE SUBSTATION ON, WE HAVE POWER, YOU CAN RECEIVE YOUR OOM-CLASS UPGRADE.""Should be easy enough with her helping me, we crushed those Imperials back there.""SURRENDER ALL HOPE OF ANYTHING BEING EASY AND YOU WILL SURVIVE BETTER. NOW, PICK SOMETHING TO DO. I WILL REMAIN IN CONTACT..." Merxelles finishes his briefing as he hoops something to you, a personalized handheld holograph projector which he can lend assistance with.>What will you do?
>>4659446First priority is getting the power back on. And the shields. Then we should get our upgrade and use our new EXTRA BRAINPOWER to try and recruit some of the locals to help locate and retrieve supply ship stuff. With that Merx can hopefully build whatever he needs to get the cruiser back in order. And if not well at least we'd have reinforcements. So I guess >salvage an arm, grab Mimve and get down into the substation.
>>4659449support>>4659446Also asking General Merxelles on ideas to getting the locals feed. That would be an additional means to get further assistance from them. Food and shelter.
>>4659457>>4659449This should be the way to go. Supporting both of these.Also, man Stud Bucket is operating pretty far ahead of his specs mentally so far, pretty impressive for us honestly but I don't think it'll be that good if we fry ourselves early. Here's hoping we get some upgrades to our computational power relatively soon after we get the foundry up and at'em
>>4659449Support>>4659457I don’t think we can offer them food, but weapons, shelter and technology can be given insteadAnd lastly, unless Mimve destroyed it, the emergency beacon puts us on a timer. Even though SB doesn’t know let’s try not to move fast.
>>4659479Let’s try TO move fast, typo
>>4659449Support
>>4659449SupportAlso we need to get our octa friend up and running after we get the foundry online.
>>4659441>[CHEERING INTENSIFIES]That is kind of always the reaction to seeing the Emperor kek>>4659446This data is unbelievably valuable, not only could it expose Palpatine for the fraud he is, but it could sunder the Empire to pieces. >>4659449This.
>>4659449+1Shit man, Merxelles is a smart cookie, he's already figured out what the majority of the galaxy couldn't, i'm pretty sure not even the protagonists knew that sidious orchestrated the war
>>4659521Just think that this little chair could be papa Palpa's undoing just because Newt decided it would be a good idea to have it save every conversation over it and store it.Also this is very bad as well because the moment our Droid uprising kicks off and Palpatine somehow catches wind or senses it before we cam expose him we'll have the biggest target in the galaxy on our backs and then its VADER TIME, or worse yet TARKIN TIME because he'll rape us with the Death Star.
Actually, does the DS1 even function by 2 BBY?
>>4659528Which is why we don't just try to go uprising. See, this is an Star Wars side story.This means that everything we do, we do alongside the plot. We don't change it. With our success, the original trilogy should go basically the same way.So like, instead of leaking this information to the holonet or something, we stealthily give it to the fuckin' rebellion or something. It changes our stuff, but not the movie's
>>4659549I mean, we have the universe to play with and history that we could attempt to change, buuut making our mark does sound really nice too. We fight a war in our sector and give the Imps hell even if we ultimately get defeated, but in the end we manage to give the Rebels that data so after the Civil War is over the galaxy remembers the Droid army and not with fear, and the unlikely B1 that shut down getting the truth out. Maybe they'd name a ship after Stud Bucket.
>>4659562Eh...there's not really any need to loose. We can succeed, as long as we do it without interfering with the main plot.That, is what is necessary. Basically all of the star wars side stories, even crossover ones, basically happen within the framework of the story but without affecting them.You know, kinda like how Rogue One explained the Death Star Deeta. Except, y'know, we don't need to die.
>>4659569Or we hack the death star and blast Palpy's ass into the next dimension.
>>4659569Gotta die someday, if not in this quest and we join the Rebels then the civil war, maybe at Endor, if not there then in Thrawn's campaigns, and if not there? The Yuuzhan Vong war. Gotta die someday.
>>4659575Well yeah, but that could be said about literally everyone. There's no reason why we have to die in action like this.
>>4659580I just get a bad feeling when Stud Bucket speaks, I feel like he's gonna end up going the Jyn Erso route in the end.
>>4659583Hey, the droids of Kalani managed to survive, right? At least, the majority of them.Obviously, it's dangerous, but i don't think Stud Bucket will just die like that.
>>4659449Support dont forget to keep her safe and warn of the dangers Also good thing our processors are in our head they should be pretty easy to put on another body
>>4659571Blow up Nukes inside it after crash landing our ships onto the surface during the Battle at Yavin IV with boarding troops
>>4659583I kind of hope we ignore some of the newer movies or nitpick
>>4659607>Flamethrower I see that the space Geneva convention is still not a thing
>>4659630Hope we can be the reason people want to make one
>>4659633Robots don't need to breath so we can go full WW1
>>4659650>Droids with Poison Gas, Acid, Incendiary and Radiological weaponryTerrifying but I don't see it happening if we want to convince people to join us willingly
>>4659656>willingly
>>4659650Yeah no
>>4659669You sure?
>>4659650Did you forget pretty much all stormtroopers wear helmets?
>>4659674I don't think they are NBC or CBRN approved
>>4659667>Both droids look at a Coruscant glowing from all the radiation through the thick dense poisonous atmosphere courtesy of all the bombardment>SB: Fat Head>TD: Yes>SB: Are we the baddies?
>>4659656>join us willinglyI mean, Merxelles basically did he say he wants to create a galactic nation ruled solely by droids who watcy over the organics. I don't think hes the kind of guy who wants to give anyone a choice.
>>4659674Look at the neck gap it does not look very air tight
>>4659682This reminds me ever notice how much metal is there they must have stripmined hundreds of solar systems to coat a planet in that much metal
>>4659709>galactic nation ruled solely by droidsIf we ever reach that point i purpose the name Zero-One
>>4659674We’ve already established these helmets do nothing. Besides, radiation damages everything in high enough amounts, even droids.
>>4659678Funnily enough the one thing stormtrooper armor was good at was making sure the environment didn't kill the troopers. They'd need a few extra doohickeys to keep going through a long term engagement with dedicated anti-personnel gas but if you just dropped a gas canister at their feet they'd have plenty of time to get out of the gas unharmed. The suits in totality even provide protection against vacuum for a very short time.
>>4659919This also we are going to work with organics so let's not schorched earth everything
>>4659919Well there's always psychological warfare we could upload isis style execution vids
>>4659935That's not how you get the people of the galaxy on your side.
>>4659953>While all nations employ it, the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) lists the tactical goals of psychological warfare (PSYWAR) or psychological operations (PSYOP) as:>Assisting in overcoming an enemy’s will to fightSustaining the morale and winning the alliance of friendly groups in countries occupied by the enemyInfluencing the morale and attitudes of people in friendly and neutral countries toward the United States
>>4659961ISIS execution vids dum dum. All they do is make you look like an asshole to literally everyone who isn't already in deep in your little murder clubby.
>>4659961He meant the ISIS execution vids anon
>>4659969>>4659972Yeah those might be a bit extreme
>>4659446Can we get an upgrade to our brain power so we can make quick minute actions real quick? Does Merxelles know where we can find a field repair kit? Being a B1 battle droid we're probably going to need to weld, duct tape, and glue our limbs back together very frequently.When we're ready to go, lets got the armor off the corpses.
>>4660321We're out of power, anon. That's why we need to turn on the generator, because we're out of power for stuff like that. Why else would Merxelles stay as half a droid?
>>4659449SupportPriority should be>Power >Shields>BrainIf Mimve hasn't destroyed that emergency beacon we're soon gonna have company and we need troops to meet them.
i kind of just want to see a b1 droid in a wife beater
>>4660401I wanna see Stud Bucket with a General Grevious Chassis. Maybe we could LARP as him if we have enough materials. If there are Vibro knives on this planet, maybe we could find or make swords?When we get the ship up and running, should we just move the foundry and some volunteer locals into the ship and fuck off? I'm kind of worried about the empire sending a fleet to kick us.
>>4660426I think we should go friendly looking mister bones
>>4660434>A giant Skelly DroidHow terrifyingI had a thought, since we probably won't have a stable supply of Tibanna gas for infantry blasters for some time, how about we make Lasguns?>Cheap: Don't need gas, only power>Hitscan and zero recoil to offset poor B1 accuracy
>>4660426Nah Grievous was a hunchback chump. We need his feet though. Fuckers could grab into solid steel.
>>4660447https://youtu.be/5Bvwvr5pMYk
>>4660454That really is low-key terrifying though.
>>4660459As yeah so for now tape a knife to our arm stump
>>4660401What about a virgin killing sweater
>>4660446I'm referring to this mister bones content://com.brave.browser.FileProvider/images/screenshot/16137823184501948718146.jpg
>>4660497Someone needs to draw that with join the seperatists above it
>>4660401I'm personally thinking about going the Gundam route and wearing a badass cloak over our body. Cloaks are both cool and functional. Very good concealment for any weapons we need or even our body itself if we run into some particularly mean organics. We can basically end up being a modded b1 gunslinger kinda guy and that'd just be really sick
>>4660523>The Clanker with No Name
>>4660523We have smol child though
>>4660543Yes and?
>>4660523I support the cloak idea, and we should install heat things so we can hug Mimve without her getting cold. This is needed.
>>4660567Stud Bucket evolving into The Stud. Protector of the weak and an agent for the future for all droids
>>4660426I would really like that
>>4660574A stud is well a short metal spike its like there are stud tires so we are a bucket of nails instead of bolts
>>4660497
>>4660599A stud is also a structural beam typically found in walls to support whatever facade you have in front of it. Be it dry wall or plywood. It is strong and holds this shit together. You can even smash a nail into the thing and hang your favorite pictures on it.So too is Stud Bucket a stud.
>>4660654
>>4660654Good, goooood!Now draw Mimve in one
>>4660654So instead of intimidating we can just become sexy.Looking like Asajj Ventress with that sleeveless turtleneck

"We need that power on foremost, otherwise I can't get my upgrade! ...And maybe an oil bath...""THEN YOU HAVE YOUR OBJECTIVE. DESCEND TO THE SUBSTATION, BE CAREFUL ON YOUR WAY. TURN THE POWER BACK ON AND THEN WE'LL HANDLE THE SHIELDS.""Roger roger.""I AWAIT YOUR SUCCESS HERE THEN.... or your failure, b1..."You leave back through the tram system and exit the command center to the Foundry. Walking back down the high flights of stairs on your way down, you pass by a line of deactivated B1 units readied to be loaded into an MTT."....Hmmm....."
"Well, not like he needs it anyway right now."No hard feelings brother, maybe you'll get a replacement whenever you come back to life, for now, you claim one of the spare arms of your brothers and magnetically reattach it. Pefecto!
Now back outside again, you look around for any sign of Mimve, you were going to need her help after all. Walking around a bit, you eventually see her silhouette in the distance and come closer as she runs back to you."Bukett! Bukett! Found something!" She declares."Hm? What is this thing?"Well let's see, it's a boxy device with a resonating BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP. Did that come from the Speeder you shot out? Mimve's nod says yes. You feel like you should know this... give it a moment, it will come to you."THAT IS AN EMERGENCY TRANSPONDER. TURN. IT. OFF."Oh, it's an emergency transp- Damn it! Jedi'd to the punch. Oh well, you switch the device off to stop that annoying beeping, it was like a crazy Astromech unit."WE CAN EXPECT MORE COMPANY IN THE FUTURE... UNFORTUNATELY. INCREASE EFFORTS, WE NEED POWER AS FAST AS POSSIBLE."Man, he talks a lot."Mimve, I need your help. I gotta get the Foundry back online by turning on the generator.""Genrator...?"She gasps, a brilliant idea coming to her mind."Oh! Oh! Oh! I know help, know help that Bukett very might use!""Help?""Home town Sprawl has man that help. Engineer, he Corellian, nama Dugok Csiron Phaanell! He fix anything, get heat rods that warm town up, and genrator! Me this know.""Hmmm...."An engineer, and a Corellian one at that. Those Corellians were really good with technology weren't they? Mimve might be onto something. But on the other hand, that requires you going into a town of organics to recruit this engineer..."Mimve can help get Dugok help Bukett! Mimve and Mimve sister can, he always at Cantina drinking. Oh, you should come, we sneak you in since it becoming night, maybe get caretaker give you something wear. Trust Mimve, this work it could!"Well, she's jumping for joy now. She trusts you clearly after that skirmish with the Imperials, but then again, she is only a gullible kid! How are you going to secure the trust of a full grown organic? Well, the liberty the CIS could bring might be enough.>What will you do?
>>4660871The question is, what is adult age for her species (Nelvaanians)?
>>4660924Man she's cute
>>4660886https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Nelvaanian/Legends
>>4660924>Ask Maxellus for his opinion. He’s the big brain droid after all.
>>4660928No real way to know that so we'll say they have the same age standards as humans and leave it at that.
>>4660937I second this
>>4660924Lets do it, we can't rely on Merxelles to hold our hand on evwrything if we're going to be an OOM commander. I'm sure nothing will go wrong.
>>4660924Let's see if her acquaintances can help us out. Wouldn't hurt to let her help us out on that front, plus if we get a good rapport with the locals we'll have more flexibility in our future and they'd get some droids on their side to defend against any dipshit imperials. Big win win I'd say
>>4660967Aw yeah
>>4660953>Corellian turns out to be an imperial spy>Sets factory to self destructNothing could go wrong
>>4660924We get to work on generator, tell Mimve to get back to town and get the guy but make sure she doesn't spill any secret and get the guy to swear to secret, and to make sure no one follows them.Also what happened to the guy who tried to stab us on the cliff? We ganked him right?
>>4661136We shot him after we head-butted him
Pulling out your communicator, you page General Merxelles. His holographic visage appears."YES?""General sir, did you get that? What do you think?""LEAVING THE AREA WOULD PUT YOU OUT OF THE SIGHT OF MY MONITORS. THIS HOLOGRAM WOULD BE MY ONLY EYE AND EAR YOU COULD REACH, WHICH MAY PUT YOU AT RISK. ON THE OTHER HAND, AN ENGINEER WOULD DO WONDERS. THIS FOUNDRY IS MADE TO BE MANNED BY ORGANICS... WE WILL NEED SUITABLE AND WILLING WORKERS.""Alright, then that settles that. I'll go to... er, Sprawl. I'll get that engineer, how's that sound?""FIND A DISGUISE.""Ohhhh! Blue mannnn, he also Droid like Bukett?""Yeah, he's my boss, technically.""HELLO."Something hits you just then and you holster the E-11 you had to reach into your backpack's storage for that Separatist seal pin Merxelles gave you. Extending it out, you offer it to Mimve, who looks with confusion."Hmm? What this?""THAT IS AN OFFICER'S MEDAL... USUALLY MEANT FOR A HAT. FOR NOW, LET IT SERVE AS YOUR PATCH. IT'S WHAT MAKES YOU FORMALLY APART OF THE SEPARATIST ARMY. THAT'S WHAT YOU WANTED WASN'T IT? TO JOIN US."Mimve looks astounded, almost like she's about to pass a tear. Her people must not receive much in the way of gifts like this."Y-Yes! Yes! Oh thank you! I take, wear, be fedrate army with Bukett!" Mimve says, taking the pin and notching the Confederate Hex emblem pin to her furred cloak. She salutes the general with zeal in her eyes."SUCH AN INNOCENT OPTIMISM. I'M SURE YOU'LL PROVE VERY USEFUL TO OUR CAUSE.... HM HM HM HMM.... WEAR THE SHIELD ROUNDEL WITH PRIDE." General Merxelles encourages her before he blinks out.Oh finally he shut up with his generally condescending tone. Alright, time to move out!
"Alright, you lead the way-ay-AAYYYYY!""YAY! LETS GO HOME! MIMVE TAKE YOU! HAH HAH HAH!"Accosted by the surprising grip of her small hand, Mimve takes you along with her back out into the snowy wasteland as she starts humming a song and dragging her weapons bag, leading you to her home town of Sprawl, where further misadventure was probable...

>>4661222We should really consider developing some droids that can work on other machines. Like the Droid equivalent of doctors?
>>4661233Engineers
>>4661238That sounds fancy. Yeah those.
>>4661233I think they had orange engineer/technician droids that could fill that role.
Couldn't we try to (poorly) wear clone trooper suit or cloak? Heck, just use the sack carrying weapons to help break up our body profile a bit.
>>4661242We’ll just borrow/steal one once we get there
"Halt!""Jabba's tits... Ugh, how may I help you this time, officers?""Your stay has exceeded it's permitted limit of three days by the Staff Sergeant, Bounty Hunter. You've got one tonight to clear out or you're joining the slave stock building Dunsal's new city palace. If it was up to me, I'd just have all of you scumbags shot on sight anyway.""It ain't so wise to go pissin' off a Mandalorian now, condiment jars.""And it's doubly unwise to piss off a whole Stormtrooper section, barbarian. You've got your final warning, clear your flimsy plated ass out by morning or we're taking you in with cuffs, or full of holes. Either way works for us.""Hmpf... Tell your sergeant I'll vanish from this dung pit, then he can't stop wetting his glove.""Move along, half-a-man-do.""Right, see ya', snowmen."Getting into the town under the veil of the night was easy enough for you and Mimve as you both creep in. The town was surrounded by fences and some small walls to protect it from wildlife, but these walls also acted as coils that gave off heat to warm the town in the middle of the frozen planet. Mimve seemed to know her way around quite well, and the both of you are sneaking down the dark and dimly lit alleys between shacks and buildings after hopping a fence using tree stumps she had placed and hid with snow."So, how much further?" You say on low volume setting."Down here, down here, live by south end, cold-ee-sac. Street lamp not work well and late, nobody out, everyone sleep when curfew happen.""Hmm... Awful lot of Clone Troopers here... I got a bad feeling about this.""Those Stormtrooper, white demons enslave my people... hate them.""Who was that?""Mandlorian, he bounty hunter, hunt people for money and kill them. He show up some time ago. Now he gotta leave.""Mandalorian... oh, yeah, those are the guys that fly around. I heard they were really dangerous. Wonder if we could recruit him.""Not know if have enough credit to."
>>4659446I like this general fellow actually.He seems like /ourguy/
The two of you pass through the back streets and alleys, taking care not to wake up the sleeping bums and hobos as Mimve puts a finger to her mouth to signal quietness.Up some stairs to an inn and over a solid roof, the two of you slide down a pole until you reach the southern end street, where Mimve's cul-de-sac waited up against the town's wall. There were many houses of the same identical shape arranged around in a circle, with one single lamp to light up the place. You'd be in light going to her doorstep, but it shouldn't take long.That is at least the thought until Mimve subtly gasps."Nooo.....""What's the matter?""There guard here. Not guard here before other nights...."True enough, a Scout Trooper was standing with his speeder under the street lamp, looking around the lit area as he kept watch over the cul-de-sac."No sign of her. We can't confirm the graffiti rumor. I'll keep watch until sunrise.""What's he saying?""Ohh.... I think dummy Eemrials trying catch me, arrest me. I use go out at night and make paint messages on walls telling Eemrials go home! Some homeless dumb Duro see me one night, tell guard people and they give him credits! But they need see me really know it me so can put me in jail. I no wanna go jail..."Hmmm.... That Scout Trooper needs to be taken care of somehow. Your weapon isn't silenced though, damn. There are plenty of things to disguise yourself with around here, some drapes and awning curtains that will be missed. There is also a pen with a feisty Tauntaun whining in it nearby... but potentially some other stuff if you look harder.>What do you do?
>>4661222kek, the droideka on the background
>>4661254>Free the Tauntaun, then grab the curtains for concealment
>>4661254Why do we even need to go into Mimve's house?Can't we just go look for this mechanic guy?
>>4661250Those stormies are dead men.>>4661254Find something to throw, see if we can unleash the SNOW GOAT.>>4661261She said something about her sister and 'caretaker' giving us a disguise.
Hey what if we dumped the beacon thingy here or near a refuse pile or a sewer to conceivably make it seem like it dropped and was activated by mistake or something...Or just smash it here. Better they find it here and think it was troopers being dumb than at the foundry where there is battle evidence and dead troopers.
>>4661274The fact its turned off doesn't change that a detachment of army troopers suddenly went missing and a beacon was detected temporarily before going out. Them finding it here in town is going to mount suspicion. We should break it, but not here.
>>4661254We should have grabbed that vibro knife back when we were almost stabbed
>>4661222>droideka struggling to haul the imperialClassic
>>4661254Let's take a rock and skim it off into an alleyway so it sounds like Mimve running and when he goes to check it out, we'll run to where we're going. It's foolproof.
>>4661229>SPRAWLI don't like this name
>>4661284We gotta make up a convincing lie like a ammo depot explosion kill a buncha troops and place the missing trooper bodies there.
>>4661290Support, it’s worth a shot.>>4661298How unfortunate, the ammo blew up and destroyed 2 AT-DPs as well as a squad with no survivors
>>4661290That sounds reasonable. We need to be fast enough though.
Hmm... Well, time to take a leaf from your own book. Using a rock saved you from getting skewered by a vibro knife which in hind sight you wished you had remembered and taken with you back at the Foundry, so rock must be able to work again here. You're a genius, you think as you pick up a stone fished from the snow. Actually, it was loose cement.Either you'll be able to make a noise to draw the Scout Trooper's attention with, or since you're aiming at the Tauntaun pen, you might be able to set the big fuzzy guy loose as a distraction.Here goes nothing!>1d20 to USE ROCK.

You sort of feel like one of those fancy self-learning computer banks that the Slicers the Techno Union hired to work at Geonosis created back about twenty one years ago. Right now you're self-teaching yourself and you just learned it's probably a bad idea for you to try throwing anything.From a distance that is."KAGH!"
Well, you hit the Scout Trooper at least before ducking back behind cover. Looks like his helmet did it's job though. He falls, but quickly sets back up and is now brandishing a generously sized stun baton. Oh Force."Alright, I don't give a frag who that was, I don't care if you're Lord Vader himself, I'm going to kick the ever loving drutash out of you for throwing that."What's 'drutash'?[ACCESSING DATABASE..][WORD; 'drutash' [] ORIGIN; SULLUSTAN LANGUAGE][DEFINITION; 'drutash' - Dung, Feces, Excrement -]Uh oh. And he's gonna kick that out of you! That stuff comes from the cargo bay, he's gonna kick your butt!"Oh no, oh crud, oh my... what do I do... what do I do....""He coming closer, Bukett! We need think of something....!" Mimve says, a look of terror about her face.No krutash! But what exactly? Do you try taking him down when he rounds the corner? Try moving away and circling around him to get inside Mimve's house? That stun baton has electricity going down it! Your one (of many) weakness(es)!>What do you do?!
>>4661387Are there any dumpsters or boxes to hide in nearby? If we can’t fit put Mimve inside and Pretend to be deactivated in a corner.
