buffeted by Imperial flak.

I'd say about twenty guns. Some on

near the center blinks on and off.

Switching to targeting computer.

targeting eye viewer and adjusts it. His ship shudders under
intense laser barrage.
GOLD TWO:

As the fighters begin to approach the target area, suddenly
all the laserfire stops. An eerie clam clings over the trench
as the surface whips past in a blur.

The guns... they've stopped!

Stabilize your read deflectors. Watch
