Overview of the board and deployment of the leagues:

All the leagues move slowly. The Inquisitor try to win the plot point but fail and he is injured by a booby trap, the Mortificator is luckier and win the challenge, but it is a futile victory because there is no reward.

Mitch Hunter find a small treasure and win the challenge gaining a reward.

Lady Mechanika and the Nova Command move toward the walls.

A tough firefight between the leagues begin. Several characters are injured.

One of the crew of the Gun team is defeated during the firefight.

The brotherhood advances, while the enemies open fire taking advantage of the protection of the fortified walls.

The Gun Team is defeated. The firefight continue with more injuries for all the leagues.

Mila Kusanagi win the challenge of the plot point and gain a reward. The Mortificator is down, but recover in the next turn.

The firefight is brutal, with heavy use of SMG, but it is inconclusive.

Mitch Hunter jump the peril on the door of the fortified wall and move inside the gallery.

Mila Kusanagi is defeated from some nice shots from Big Bob Watts and Inquisitor Kane. She lose her plot point.

Meanwhile the firefith continue elsewhere.

Lady Mechanika win the challenge for another plot point, but gain no reward.

After several shots, the Mortificator is defeated.

Mitch Hunter retreats prudently to avoid losing his plot point.

The Brotherhood and Capitol Heroes still have their single plot point, then win the scenario.

Gul Reda hire the Bounty Hunter Ranna and with her help he determines the route of the Skywalker's X-Wing. Gul Reda with his Star Destroyer Interdictor Kraken, intercepts the X-Wing of Skywalker. Chased from TIE Fighters, Luke must do an emergency landing in an unknown planet and there he is rescued by Nala, a young devaronian girl castaway, survived years ago to the crash of her parents' ship.

Luke run with his new friends, hoping to escape the pursuers.
Luke: "I sense an anomaly in the Force... The leader of the imperial forces is an abomination, I must avoid him before it is too late!"

 

 

The Stormtrooper specialist fire on the rebel group, defeating the raptor hound, however he is rushed by Luke and defeated himself.

Guld Reda: "Skywalker is fleeing! We must stop him!"

Gul Reda paralyzes luke preventing him from moving and dodging, then he is down by the concentrated fire of Ranna and the last two stormtrooper. Furious, Nala charge Gul Reda but she is down too (but will recover).
Gul Reda: "Skywalker is helpless, it's our chance to catch him."

Luke and Nala are again down, while Ranna has almost reached Skywalker.

Finally Ranna reaches Skywalker, wins the challenge and the boy is her prisoner.
Ranna: "The prey is finally mine..."

 

Gul Reda: "Well done Ranna, the Emperor will be pleased. Now Skywalker will meet his fate in the presence of the Emperor."

The Imperial League has caught Luke Skywalker, the major plot point, winning the scenario.
