Game Night 6/1 - Winter Wonderland

As the party approached the surface of Ilum in their shuttle and the Y-wing, they were rudely greeted by a surface to air missile. With the help of a timely warning and some nice flying from Taloe, the missile missed the Y-wing, and was destroyed by a shot from the ion canon manned by Jorrus. The next missile missed the shuttle, and was again destroyed by the Y-wing, this time by Taloe with the laser cannons. After an alert from Mater Dee on their foes possible location, the two ships landed about 100m from the only 'building' in the city, and were promptly attacked by both Stormtroopers and Droids. A dire battle ensued, with many wounds, and expenditures of thermal detonators. During the battle, Mater Dee reported transmissions to and from the city to an unknown source in the foothills. At the end, two droids were down, along with four troopers. One trooper managed to escape, and the trooper that appeared to be in charge almost escaped, but was blasted out of the sky by Taloe and the Y-wing.

An inspection of the building found two rooms. The first was bare, and had paintings on the walls that showed a mountain range with a building and two tall white towers on the front. It was immediately recognizable as the dream vision experienced by the force using characters. The second room contained bunks for the troopers, and more importantly a communication set, and computer. Grarrwarr was able to hack into the computer and find that there were more people in the group they had encountered, and two more groups on the planet of similar size.

After successfully stopping someone from remotely deleting files - Bar Bar destroyed the dish antenna - the decision was made to take the equipment to the ship for further investigation. A short battle was fought with two more droids on the way, and the party has now blasted into orbit to rendezvous with the Magellan.
