[ Vader, huh. Amos inclines his chin in reception — no need for him to be a dick when finally exchanging introductions — as his own blade shifts in a mimicry of the way Vader holds his. It's almost certainly a tell that he doesn't really know what he's doing, but if it works for this guy, that means it might work for him, too.
He stops as Vader does, cocking his head at the boast, the assumption that Vader is so good that he'll spare Amos, just like that.
(Amos wouldn't, but he wouldn't offer the warning, anyway.) ]
Talk a big game for someone who just got here, huh?
[ And is in enemy territory, at that. Though as Amos speaks, Vader should feel himself growing heavier, gravity intensifying in the area around him; on him, specifically, aiming to weigh him down. (He will never not go for underhanded tactics. If you aren't playing dirty you'll end up dead.) Maybe Amos can throw off some of the machinery he's using; maybe he can just slow him down. Either way, once he's satisfied he's gone far enough — gravity's intensity doubling, maybe a bit more than that — he aims to swipe at the panel on Vader's centre of mass with his sword, something that's simultaneously an attempt at a quick strike and a probe.

It's his first guess, at least. ]
