"Ok, now, are there places for us to hide and ambush?" She looks up. "They'll be coming from the upper deck, so we need to climb up and find an ambush spot up there. Come on, Granite!"
Ashara starts climbing the ladder.

When Ashara and Granite climb up the ladder, they find themselves at the back of the ship. When she peeks around the corner, she sees Master Tan waiting and standing near fallen clone troopers.
Blue dots are good guys

"Alright, now let's find a good spot to ambush them and swing first when they come to investigate."

Ashara waits for the troopers to attack, but they hold their positions.
Jedi Master Divak Tan places his hand to his ear piece and then shouts over to the two younger allies. "Another transport ship is heading this way. Looks like it might dock. We need to move before they get reinforcements."

Granite strides forward, knowing this is a hard and fast raid, not some sort of siege. Sitting still is death, the only direction is onward! The only decision is which direction, either towards the other wing, or towards the front. Without a schematic ahead of time, he starts jogging towards the bow.
Guessing the prisoner might be to the 'West' of us, so heading that direction.

Sighing, Ashara follows tries to see the enemy first to get a shot off before the enemy can do the same to her!

The rouse to tamper with the transport ship's hyperdrive seems to not budge the capturers. Knowing their fate is tied to their prisoners' fate, they holdfast in their defensive positions and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

Clone Troopers B Minion Group (x2) = ygg = ^^

Granite charges ahead. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Stabbing and slicing with his lightsaber pike, he darts straight at the nearest troopers, striving to cut them down before they can do anything.
Maneuver: Move to Clone Troopers A.
Action: Attack Clone Troopers A (2Y, 2G).

soak 5 vs Breach 1 = ignore soak
Pass Adv to Next Ally (Ashara) as Boost
Note: I had Divak spec'd as Lightsaber(Agility), but after finally rolling a Lightsaber check, I think Lightsaber(Int) works better for his "teacher/int" based story, so I'm changing that after this roll.
Granite charges forward with his lightsaber pike in hand. With a swift strike, he takes one Clone Trooper down and moves onto the next. His next attack severely wounds the Trooper, but the Trooper is remains standing after his attack.
Seeing the former Jedi Temple Guard rush forward, Master Divak Tan joins the fray. His years as a skilled teacher has focused mostly on educating younglings and padawans rather than time spent on the battlefields of the Clone Wars. His lightsaber moves swiftly as he takes down the two Clone Troopers using the basic and precise techniques that he once taught to younglings.

The wounded Clone engaged with Granite takes a step back and fires his blaster rifle at the Jedi Knight. His shot misses the Granite, but causes the Jedi Knight to become momentarily distracted.
The two Clone Pilots take aim and fire a volley of shots at Jedi Master Divak Tan. The Jedi Master draws on the Force and his learned techniques to reflect most of their shots allowing only one to clip his shoulder causing a minor wound.
The Clone Naval Officer also takes aim at the Jedi Master knowing that the Jedi Master can only reflect so many shots at once. However, his blaster shots are dodged as Master Tan side steps avoiding taking additional wounds.
Round 1: Hero, Hero, Clones, **Hero**
Clone Troopers A = short range, engaged w/Granite, short range w/Tan (red starburst with "2")
Clone Navy Officer = medium range, short range w/Granite and Tan (orange starburst with "1", in room 9)
Clone Pilots = medium range, short range w/Granite and Tan (orange starburst with "2", in room 9)
