Hope you all had a Reunion dinner that couldn't be beat if you're on Akiton and Thanksgiving if you're elsewhere in the galaxy!

They are going to move after our ship moves, so try to move to a position that protects our port (left) side which is where our shields are the weakest. Assume River Rat will move to a place where they can attack us while protecting their port or aft sectors. Even where they have shielding they are low, so it probably won't matter.

I'm sorry to keep you waiting, but I wound up stranded at the hotel I work at overnight due to a winter storm. May I please request a grace period so I'm not trying to write long complex posts on my phone? :(

Hi mates!
I am overwhelmed by real life and have no power to track what is happening with Thundergun. Sorry for being absent. Not sure whan I will be able to return.
Feel free to not TG or just leave him at the starship for good

Real quick who are the folks in the center, trying to come up with SOME way for voldresk to help, but the fact that you can't remote hack(in the super sci-fi setting feels funny) and also he has actually zero social skills to help cause a distraction lmao.
Like man this section of the AP just feels really bad without playing someone who's a socialite and makes me think I may need to rebuild him with at least one charisma skill afterwards. Granted that was kind of the jist of the build and concept so tracks that I'm not gonna be well suited to what's going on.

I'm not sure one needs special social skills to create a distraction. Just get offended by something and begin yelling and threatening folks.
I suppose that might require a bluff skill but anything that takes the attention of the bouncers off the doorway should help.
Maybe the doors cannot be remote hacked, but perhaps the lighting or sound system? Create flashing lights and several tracks of loud music at once and that should be a good distraction as well.

The post I was working on did involve either causing a ruckus or soing something to the sound system, part of why I asked who the folks in the center of the room were.

Yes. Lola has it right. You've got some vesk bouncers scattered about and some verthani bartenders in the corner bars. The floor is crowded with dancers, etc, who have no icons.
Voldresk has some good computers and engineering skills. (+8) He could try the doors.
Given you're on the dance floor doing this, a little stealth might be helpful too. A distraction is going to work as a bonus to stealth.

It's a good thing we don't have any witchwarpers in the party, otherwise things might get a bit hectic! :P

oooh my goooooood
I have never seen this sort of consistent string of terrible rolls and they alone are making this whole ap feel miserable.
Suppose it also doesn't help that the AP is rated for levels 1-4 which happens to be before anyone gets any decent abilities, but hey that'd be okay if we could roll above 10 one out of 15 times.

I feel like plan b is brute force, but given our rolls and the fact this is supposed to be at least mostly nonlethal. I don't know if that's viable. Should we check the outside to see if we find another entrance?

Feel like i missed something with 'The pod' i know we caught a glimpse from the outside but if it's called 'The pod' that makes it seem important, can it be altered in a way that would allow people out(because these clubgoers should realize very quickly there isn't an exit back here. Which breaks ALL SORTS of safety codes for this establishment.
It would break all kinds of safety codes. One could draw conclusions about the character of the club owner.
You haven't missed too much about the pod. IMHO it is there primarily to block the door, secondarily as a minorly minor plot point.
