MK manuevers the ship to face the small object. Then Zero triggers the ramp to open. In mere moments Shunna can see the remains of the battle droid floating in empty space, a mere 20 meters away.

[Grrrrr I lost my post!!!    ]

[OoC1: Which kind of battle droid is it?]


"I can see it," Shunna says while activating her lightsaber and taking on a full defensive stance.  "It appears to be the remains of a battle droid.  Can someone scan it to make sure it's not active?"


[OoC2: If the battle droid is safely powered down...]

"We need to move the ship to at least within 9 meters."

Zero will scan the object... [Perception check?]

[Use Computer: [1d20+10] = 18+10 = 28 ; Woot!]

It is just the head and torso of a clone wars super battle droid, destroyed earlier in the cantina when gangsters on the Rock attacked Ubi Sunt. Ubi tells you that he owns it and that it was on his ship, the Wild Card, which the droid Long is currently in possession of. Dez confirms thus, she and the droid met Ubi in that gunfight, she had helped drag this fragment of the battle droid to the ship from the cantina.

[OOC: Does Zero learn anything with his scans? ]

"I assume your friend, Long, managed to somehow turned the remains of the Battle Droid into a transmitter to repeat this message for you.  It's likely the Base has already picked up the same message like we did unless he somehow managed to mask the transmitter signal so it would be difficult for them to detect.  We should pull it aboard immediately and stop it from transmitting."

"I'm trying but no one is moving the ship close enough for me to pull it onboard."

If they take the hint to move closer, Shunna will reach out with the force to, Move light object. [Check: Automatic]


If no one takes the hint and assuming she has some slack in her chain to move, Shunna moves closer 2 squares and then reaches out with the force to, Move Object. [Shunna's minimum roll of 1 will move a Large object.]

Nothing more learned from the scans other than the object is on very little power, not enough for anything beyond what an energy cell would power. It definitely is the source of the long range comm signal, which unfortunately is NOT scrambled, so yes, guaranteed everyone within 50kms has picked up on it.

Probably why Long was cryptic and just mentions Ubi's last astrogation logs rather than giving coordinates.

Dez will try and maneuver the ship closer.

[Pilot [1d20+9] = 3+9 = 12]

Dez maneuver succeeds (Take 10 would have worked)
