For one thing, I don't think the X-Men would bother jumping down the garbage masher. After all, they've handled much much worse than the Stormies in the detention block.SyntaxVorlon wrote:Storm causes a fog to roll out of the turbolift as the door opens, the other Xmen get out quickly and Kat and Kurt run diversion while cyclops and wolverine knock out the storm troopers from behind.
Colossus can get left home.
They escape down to the garbage masher while kurt opens the door from the outside. The lot of them use what weapons they stole from the troopers on the detention level to knock out stromies on their way back to the hanger. And X dies securing their escape.

We've got company!!!
no between fuzzy elf's ability to cause havok amoung the stormies, (you try hitting anything when the guy behind you has just been kicked into you), kitty frazzing circuits and doors, a fast moving nutzo, a guy whose voice can liquify metal, and a guy whose eyes generate ungodly amounts of force, and whose brain calcs arcs of deflection on the fly...
basically a little stratigic bamfing and Peter and Wolvie are right in the middle or behind the stormtroopers, where they can do the most damage, and are least likely to be hit before they do said damage.

Even if we assume that the Stormies are not going for the kill against the X-Men, similar to what they did vs. Han/Luke/Chewie...that was quite alot of Stormies blocking the only exit, no? And how long are they going to stick to that 'let them escape' plan when suddenly they see weird creatures throwing crazy weather effects their way and such?Gil Hamilton wrote:For one thing, I don't think the X-Men would bother jumping down the garbage masher.

Vader and Tarkin watch people who don't know the ship or even Star Wars technology try to fly the Falcon for about half an hour before having it shot down in annoyance... "This was you worst plan yet Vader."

So what if they try and kill them? The X-Men listed are more than a match for a battalion of Stormtroopers, let alone the ones in the Detention Block.Badme wrote:Even if we assume that the Stormies are not going for the kill against the X-Men, similar to what they did vs. Han/Luke/Chewie...that was quite alot of Stormies blocking the only exit, no?

Personaly the way i see this going down is Xavier will tell Vader to jump in a pit and Vader will be powerless to resist, then he'll get to work making the stormtroopers forget there ever were any prisoners.
But assuming that for some reason xavier cannot dominate vaders mind i see things working like this...
Nightcrawler and Kitty blast away stormtroopers with acquired blasters while remaining invulnerable to their assaults.
Cyclops will be a monster here, those eye beams will by all logic do not miss, they're aimed by his vision, he could blast all thier weapons out of thier hands as eaisly as looking at them, or just go wide beam and do some seroius damage to the station, hell he could tunnel through the walls.
Storm should be a major player, able both to provide fog for cover and powerful lightning blasts, Also with her powers she can transport the entire team herself up and down those shafts that appear to fill the entire death star, oh and about those shafts, any stormies on those narrow bridges are gonna find its a long way down when storm turns those winds on
Banshee, is sadly probly dead, those helmets might actualy provide sometype of protection form from sonics and his flying isn't good enough to save him from nasty blaster death
wolverine will make the halls run red with blood. Blasters will most likely not keep him down. In evidence of that i submit, from wolverines own comic, when he went crazy and ran off to russia chasing a terry jones, he is on a bus that gets robbed, he tries showing them kbg ID, they gun him down with AKs and rob him, this mind you is when he was without adamantiunm. He recovers fully shortly after. More recently when assaulting "the world" with phantomex and cyclops in the pages of new xmen he is struck in the chest with a Rail gun, he gets up half a minute later and says "my heart stopped for thirty seconds there, thats a new record for me" Wolverine is also very skilled with weapons, he could Blast them most effectivly.
Since Xavier for this scenario cannot strike Xavier down with a lobotomizing psiblast this is the scene i imagine. In new x men the x men are attacked in the chunnel by a creature that invades and infects the minds of any it touches. To battle it Xavier takes control of Madrox the multiple man, He says (using a few dozen madroxes to speak) you're not the only one who can fight with a hundred bodies, or somthinng to that effect then procceeds to beat the beast and its subjects to death with the multiple mans multiple bodies. I envision a scene sort of like that except instead of the multiple man its storm troopers. And even though vader can slice through them pretty fast xavier can just subjugate more just as fast, i envision xavier holed up in a control booth while outside vader fights stormtroopers, their dead piled around him.
