The elevator comes to a halt next to the blast door. Adrenaline is rushing through you, as you wait for the gate to open, knowing well there will be enemies on the far side.<br/>SSSshhhh - The door retracts twoway into the walls, and you are surprised by a hail of blaster fire coming from the other side! The soldiers here knew exactly what to expect... they must have recieved word from the others who ambushed you a minute ago. Some of those bolts come too close for your own good, and you're forced back behind cover. [11 damage]<br/>[Knowledge: Tactics] You also notice that the range of the blaster bolt impacts is much wider than the normal autofire the others used to shoot at you. Were you to move into another cover on the elevator, the area of the blasts would also threathen your companion. The soldiers here must work as an organized squad rather than independently, giving them significantly better firepower, but limiting their mobility. Your own autofire might work better and hit multiple troopers. [Area attacks deal 2 extra die of damage against squads and swarms]<br/>When you look out from behind the crate, you can see a small shuttle with its loading ramp down, two squads of stormtroopers behind cargo crates, using them effectively as cover, and a middle-aged human woman with short black hair wearing an imperial officer's uniform further back, shouting orders to the troops to increase their combat effectiveness.<br/><strong>"Two of them, escaped subjects from the lab! Take them alive, I need them for research!"</strong>- she barks her command.
