We played again last Saturday. Here's the summary:
Part 2: Opportunity Thaws
As it leaves orbit, the Safe Haven finds itself pursued and fired upon by the Skillful Hunter. As they make the calculations for lightspeed, the Imperial Star Destroyer Immortal emerges from behind the planet and attempts to close on them as well. The adventurers make a micro-jump, but the Immortal follows them until they escape via a second jump. The group meets up with agent Brellin, plans future missions, and turns over the scrambler. Zebron also joins the Rebellion. As they fly to Roon, Ordo heavily modifies the Nova Burst. Upon arrival, Zebron makes the difficult entry into the system. _________________ Currently Running: Villains & Vigilantes (a 32-year-old campaign with multiple groups) and D6 Star Wars; mostly on hiatus are Adventures in Middle-earth and Delta Green |

The conclusion of Part 2 was played last Saturday:
Leaving Void with the ship, they make their way to the port city of Nime, where Mor’ik swoop gang thugs demand a toll for crossing their turf. A fight breaks out and the gang members are soundly defeated; only one escapes, and the adventurers commandeer the rest of the swoops. They meet Representative Tule, who hires them to venture into the dangerous Bantha Graveyard to recover a remote for the lightstations in orbit. Joined by Void, they ride kalaks into the secluded area, overcoming attacks by a wraid and a pack of nighthunters. They recover some starship weapons and the remote, and return the artifact to Tule. _________________ Currently Running: Villains & Vigilantes (a 32-year-old campaign with multiple groups) and D6 Star Wars; mostly on hiatus are Adventures in Middle-earth and Delta Green |

Some pictures from last session. This first one shows the group surrounded by the swoop gang (who are driving slowly around them).

In the Bantha Graveyard on Roon they were attacked by a territorial wraid.

We'd already gone six weeks between sessions, and alas we have to cancel tonight's game. I was already down two players (one getting there late) and now a pivotal player (his first session) got really sick. Hopefully we'll play again soon.
In the meantime, here's a picture of the group. The back row is all NPCs.
Going left to right.
Front/bottom row:
Human Jedi Knight Thorim Sundrider
Human Jedi Padawan Khaya Shan
Barabel muscle/arms dealer Zal "Bishop" Darkscape
Middle row:
Human pilot/mechanic Dargin Ordo
Miraluka information broker/pilot Tumarae Zebron
Clawdite scout Parax Void (often he looks like a familiar human)
Muun slicer El'har Nalat
Back/top row:
Servant droid E7-SE4 (EeeSeven)
Astromech droid R2-C9 (CeeNine)
Elom ally Vig Tiorus _________________ Currently Running: Villains & Vigilantes (a 32-year-old campaign with multiple groups) and D6 Star Wars; mostly on hiatus are Adventures in Middle-earth and Delta Green |

Part 3: New Allies
Void returns to the ship and the others venture into a drinking and gambling establishment in Nime called the Far Sun to meet potential new Rebel recruits. As the Jedi welcome Duros Ossis Joora and Sullustan Lyton Eib, three angry Roonstone hunters enter, searching for Muun slicer El’har Nalat. While Bishop takes out one and Sunrider and Ordo confuse the other two, Shan spirits the fugitive away. El’har explains that his companions were slain and those tracking him meant to kill him as well. Everyone meets up back at the Safe Haven, where Nalat, Joora, and Eib agree to join them. Ordo navigates them out of the Cloak of the Sith, and they journey to the Falkan Expanse in Toovar sector, to investigate rumors of a pirate ship called the Rainmaker. Shortly after arrival, they are ambushed by seven pirate vessels led by Xishel’s corvette, among them the Distant Rainbow. Aided by the Jedi in their starfighters and Ordo in the Nova Burst, the Safe Haven destroys or disables the enemy craft, and only one is able to escape. _________________ Currently Running: Villains & Vigilantes (a 32-year-old campaign with multiple groups) and D6 Star Wars; mostly on hiatus are Adventures in Middle-earth and Delta Green |

In this one you can see the three adversaries that came into the bar with a purpose: a white, cat-like bounty hunter (bottom of the picture), a human jump soldier (just to the right and above the bounty hunter) and Feeorin hired muscle (just above the jump soldier).

Close to the same pic, but in the upper right you can see the Jedi Padawan talking to the new Rebel recruits, along with Dargin Ordo.

In this last one you can see where the Barabel has engaged the bounty hunter in HTH combat. Also the Muun slicer has ducked under his table and is trying to avoid being seen by those who hunt him, while the Jedi moves up and uses Affect Mind on the Feeorin.

Part 4: Cold Comfort
The adventurers destroy the corvette, but first allow Xishel and his crew to flee via escape pods. They then confiscate the two Y-TIE fighters and learn more about the massive Rainmaker from the pilots, deciding not to pursue it at this time. They travel to Bandomeer, where Bishop, Shan, Sunrider, and Ordo visit the market in Bandor and release their captives. After being joined by Void and venturing into the icy southern wastes of the planet via speeders, they are attacked by a huge icetromper. After Sunrider calms the beast, Bishop assails it, forcing the Jedi to reluctantly put it down. They enter the upper level of the Sub-70 ice mines, where Ug-tak, backed by nine fellow Whiphids, attempts to start a fight with Bishop. Again Sunrider uses the Force to calm the alien and prevents a skirmish. The group then valiantly descends into the dangerous mines, rescuing six surviving Yuzzem miners that had been lost for weeks. _________________ Currently Running: Villains & Vigilantes (a 32-year-old campaign with multiple groups) and D6 Star Wars; mostly on hiatus are Adventures in Middle-earth and Delta Green

Some pics. I used blank envelopes to represent ice formations (the heroes had to get out of their speeders and walk the last half kilometer +).

Though the Jedi calmed the massive icetromper, Bishop nonetheless attacked it. When it went right over the top of the Jedi, he ripped its belly open with his lightsaber, and it fell/landed right in front of Bishop.

The heroes are severely outnumbered by angry Whiphids, before the Jedi calms down their "Spearmaster" (the glare makes it hard to see the three main ones). A Wookiee and a few Talz look on...
