                            Incident on Karra
                            -----------------
        Yesterday BBCH received news of a incident on Karra. The world Karra
lies in the Drexus Sector, it is a pre-industrial planet consisting mainly
of plains and valleys. A small Imperial Garrison is situated there and we
received this news from the Sector Admiralty. 5 Days ago the base was
attacked by the mutinous inhabitants of the planet and theie insectoid
allies. A spokesperson for the survivors said tat they have undeniable
evidence that the population had been duped by members of the Rebellion.
Survivors managed to salvage this Holonews reel showing exactly what happened

VISUAL: In the midst of a battle a group of three humans, a 9 foot tall
alien and a Bothan struggle across a plain shooting Karrans and insects.

One of the Survivors, Colonel Jeskerat of the Imperial Army Core of Military
Doctrine had this to say:
'It looks like those damn rebels stirred up the inhabitants and then turned
against them themselves. Those scum, will they not stop at anything in order
to thwart our beloved Emperor?'

Later searching around the area found the remains of a primitive hot air
balloon and a decapitated Karran Mantis-now beleived tobe an extinct
species. The rebels stole a supply ship and fled the scene.

This is Razik Kar'tiz for BBCH

GM Scoop: Thanks for all your help on telling me how to GM-this game was a
lot more fun. We played the Adventure 'Stranded' from Classic Campaigns 4.
My teams method of scaling the kilometer high cliff was by a hot-air
balloon. When they descended to fast our Ex-Imp Commando told everyone to
hold hands and made a makeshift guitar-and then preceded to sing Kum-bye-ah!
As you can guess this was a mix between serious and silly-every time our
Imperial prisoner whinged the Ex-Imp whacked him. Oh and he took the mantis'
head as a trophy. They now want to form a band called either 'The Mantis
Head' (also the new name for their ship) or 'Leon and the Rhieaders' (his name)
