Oddly none of us is very computer adept (at least no one has the requisite skill).
I think the plan is sound (sort of). The only problem could come if we arrive at different at the hanger at completely different times, if one group gets into the hangar and the other doesn't, or if none of us can make it in.
But we can deal with that at the time.
Ideally we won't need to start blasting until we get inside the hangar. I have a feeling that we'll have to to get the body and to get it off the station. No Imperial is going to let us walk off with a frozen body without some checks methinks  .
PS. Far better for out two members with floppy head-tails to stay out in the open rather than take the maintenance tunnel. Why would a dancer and her escort be in there?

I received the map too.
As far as I'm concered, we are waiting about for Hako'ib's return, and we will be going up separately and subtly joining up back on Blue Deck.

Ara shrugged at mention of a ship. “No idea. But if the cargo is in the main docking bay, I’ll bet there’ll be a ship there we can ‘borrow’. I can fly most things.”
As Hako’ib continued, the Arkanian strapped a second, pilfered holster around her waist and slotted a blaster in its depths.
“It’s not a bad plan,” she replied with a nod at the Twi’lek. “If I go down as a Stormtrooper I can pack all the heat we’d need and distribute it accordingly. The only thing is, there’s no way a shell-head would be escorting a bunch of dancers. What it would be doing is escorting a prisoner. If you and tails over there go as dancers, flirting with everyone as you go, I’m sure I could fashion some fake cuffs for Karra from the stuff here.”
“Of course that’s assuming you don’t mind pretending to be a prisoner, Karra?” she added.

Fair enough. The thing is, though, that Hako'ib knows the station, and can relay information that can lead to a plan being formulated. (the location of the armour etc., etc.)

Topic: Dawn of Defiance: The Traitor's Gambit
Subject: Time for a cunning plan...
“Yeah, I know,” Ara responded quietly as Karra complained of the prejudice she had faced in the Empire. Her thoughts drifted to Dil; the kind Sullustan that had raised her. She could still see the shock and anger in his large, child-like eyes when the first Anti-Human Ordinance was passed. She still felt the pain of bereavement, when his life was taken away for daring to interfere with ‘live’ Imperial cargo. And still bore the tattooed markings of her own life-time spent as a slave. “I know more than you know.”
“What I don’t know is what to do with him,” Ara admitted to both Karra and Hako-ib as she looked once more at the body of Mars. “I don’t know what the customs among his people were, and he probably wouldn’t have told me even if I had asked him. It’s just…well, hard to leave him like that you know?”
Her hands instinctively reached into her coat pocket, before it realized the thin metal case inside only contained two more cigarras. ‘Damn,’ she thought.
“Anyway, if we’re going to make it onto this ‘Blue Deck’ we’re going to need some disguises. Miss ‘Jedi-Idol’ over there and I are already known to the Impys. And, no offence, but all of you are going to stand out like a sore thumb if its restricted to Human only.”

Okies. No worries.
I wanted to delay more postage until Geraint had a chance to post. Since he doesn't seem to be around, I'll put up a post today or tomorrow.
The idea of having Ara trussed up like a Stormtrooper, gives me the giggles.

Subject: Get a gun, a big gun, a really big gun...
Ara peered at her clothing curiously. It was all there, perfectly folded by the side of the impromptu bed she was sitting on. Her brown trousers lay there, curiously fixed of the wear and tear they had been subjected to recently. And the long, sleeveless tunic she normally wore and sleeveless coat were free of scorch marks.
Ara snuck a glance at the cat-like Cathar. She was staring back, smiling. It was an odd sight, given the row upon row of pointed teeth she sported. Although, at that moment, Ara was more perturbed by how she had so quickly washed, dried and repaired her clothing.
‘Must be one of the perks of a Medical Degree,’ she decided as she donned her clothing. ‘Hmm, in which case I’m glad I’m not a medic.’
“So, right, you both want to go to Alderaan? And, yeah we know what we’re after is an Alderaanian agent,” Ara responded after Karra and Hako’ib, the Twi’lek male, had said their piece. The lithe Arkanian was picking her way through the bodies that littered the storage bay, as if reminding herself of what had so recently occurred.
“What you two haven’t realized is that this is an Impy-unfriendly operation. Those nerfherders in plastic suits are trying to track down this agent, and Ithiria and I are only in on this because we ain’t got no choice. If you can get by without this, do so. There’s safer ways off the station. If you decide you want to come anyway, then grab yourself a big, frackin’ gun, maybe some grenades, and…oh…”
Ara paused mid-speech. In her hands she was wielding two, newly acquired heavy blasters, and her pockets were stuffed with grenades, but her eyes were fixed on a far more grisly sight. Mars, or what had been Mars, was lying face up with a vacant, absent expression on his face.
“Look just help me see to his body, and I’m ok with you coming along. Whatever he did in life, he doesn’t deserve the weird things the Impies would do to his body in death.”
OOC: Ara will take 2 heavy blaster pistols, the creds, the 3 stun grenades (unless anyone wants one), and a brick of detonite with a timer.

Subject: Hear about the one with the Cathar, the Twi'lek and the Arkanian...?
“We?” Ara queried, turning her head just as a Twi’lek on the improvised bed next to her hopped off, and scampered through the debris that littered the storage bay.
’Oh right, the fight, she thought, the memories of the last hour flooding back. Switch…and Mars…and…’
Ara grasped her shoulder suddenly, reliving the moment she had been shot, and even more severely hurt when the R5 unit self-destructed. But there was nothing there. Not even the faintest scar upon her pale skin to show that she had in fact been close to death.
“Oh, you’re good,” she remarked to the Cathar with an experimental twist of her shoulder. “Did you use some bacta compound? Sorry, my name’s Ara,” she rattled off quickly.
“And, uhh, who are you?” the Arkanian added to the Twi’lek who had since returned with his hands full of plunder.

Ara will probably pilfer a couple of heavy blasters, seeing as they're legal to carry and she's blaster-less currently. Other than that I'll think more about it at a later date.

No worries, it was neat way to wrap things up and get everybody 'on board' as it were.
And I take it 'blue deck' will be pretty hostile for non-humans?

Put a post up of Ara 'waking up' as it were. I figure with there being a bit of a gap before the next post from Ayrn it'll give a chance for some character interaction.

Subject: So...not dead. Well that's a start!
There had always been whispers: white noise at the edge of her hearing. Programmed information constantly reminding her what she ought to be, what she should be doing. Except now she could not block it out.
‘Two protons expelled at each coupling site creates the mode of force the embryo becomes a fish that we don't enter until A-plate we're here to experience evolve the little toe atrophy don't ask me how I'll be dead in a thousand light years thank you thank you Genesis turns to its source reduction occurs stepwise though the essence is all one end of line. Hyperdrive system check diagnostic functions within parameters repeats the harlequin the agony exquisite the colors run the path of ashes fifty-two percent of heat exchanger cross-collateralized with hyper-dimensional matrix upper senses repair ordered relay to zero, zero, zero, zero…’
She woke up with a jolt.
“…be waking up soon,” a voice sounded from the ether.
White, stinging light blurred into distinct shapes, and then crystallized further into the face of a giant cat.
“Umm…meow?” Ara’s dry throat managed, before fading into a hoarse whisper. The cat – ‘Cathar’ Ara reminded herself – moved away slightly allowing the Arkanian to rise and pull away some of the wires and monitoring equipment attached to her (nearly) naked form. Her blue-ish white skin was there for all to see, except for her undergarments and the spiraling blue tattoos that wound across her arms, torso and up to lace her cheeks.
“So…uhh…guess I’m not dead then?” she managed, as she ran a hand through her white hair and struggled to make some sense of what had happened.

I figure Ara will use 'Second Wind' as a matter of course. She'll try and pilfer a couple of blaster pistols, a hip holster (for the second pistol) and re-assemble her blaster carbine too when she has some time to come to her senses.
She'll take 'Keen Shot' as her talent. And her feat will be: 'Dual Weapon Mastery I'.
You forgot to update her 'damage threshold' Ayrn, which should be 15 now (or at least I think it should be).
No idea if Ara will be able to do anything to fix R5 (and maybe fix it so that it isn't such a jerk) but, since she was bred to repair droids, I figure she'd take a look.
And welcome to the game Reralae.

Subject: Struggling on...
Ara was flying. She soared through the air; her body almost parallel to the ground. But it was not because she had snorted a particularly rich vein of spice. She had been shot.
She slammed into a durasteel canister with an ugly thud. Her heart fluttered wildly. Dark blue, viscous blood seeped through the ruined maintenance uniform she was wearing. And, for a moment, the world span endlessly.
“Ow,” she remembered to say a few second later, her mind struggling to keep up with the pain and shock of being hit.
Blue eyes squinted open. They were all dead, or very nearly so. The only ones standing were Switch, busily trying to extricate a dagger from amidst a tangle of flashing circuitry, and Ithira, standing proudly with a lightsaber. Ara blinked suddenly. Ithiria was still holding a lightsaber.
“Either I’ve gone mad, or the galaxy has and no one bothered to send me the memo,” the Arkanian grumbled as she gathered her strength and wobbled precariously to her feet. She was badly hurt but she could struggle through the pain, she realized. Unfortunately the same could not be said for her (not very) trusty pistol, which was now a crumpled mess in her hand. She removed the targeting scope attached to it with a ‘click’ and threw the ruined pistol at the body of the nearest thug. It smacked satisfyingly into the man’s nose. Ara tried to raise a smile, but settled for a scowl.
“So where’s Mars…” she began to ask, but then stopped. Ithiria was standing over the perfectly still, unmoving body of the Mandalorian. “Oh,” Ara added, her trembling hands reaching for the comfort of a cigarra.
‘Only two left,’ a voice in her head muttered, as she lit the smoke-stick and drew hungrily upon it. Ara had seen so much death in such a short space of time that she no longer felt horror. In fact she no longer felt anything but a numb emptiness. She had yet to decide whether that was a blessing or a curse.
“I might be able to fix your friend,” she gestured towards R5 with a billow of smoke. ’At least I can do something right.’
