USH'S ORIGINAL TRILOGY GAME EPISODE I 'LANZAR'- Rebel Alliance Thread

Jesus.
We want ALL of our weapons there.
Not just ours, not just his.
BOTH.
thats HIS incentive to help us.

What you have to remember about Drakkon is that- definitely for an Osokan- he is a smart guy. But no Osokan has any reasonable experience of Galactic politics. Their politics is tribal; it is very different. So when Drakkon ordered those weapons, he had the opinion that as some planets have weapons, why shouldn't he? He doesn;t understand the broader ramifications of why a highly visible armanent in this situation is a very bad political move, because he has no experience at all in that kind of thing.

It's you guys that will have to tell him the way thi gs are. Also Andran, but he won't always bail you out.

(It's also worth more xp if you do it)

Ok folks, too much time is being lost. I am giving you one more day top make a full pitch/plan, and then I am moving the story on with the best we have.

(Go Politicos, I'm rootin' fer ya!)

*Pulls out prodding stick*
*Poke-y poke-y*

Go get Brit and make her post!

*Shoves on Tpt's elbow to help with the pokey-pokey.*

"Drakkon, I implore you to find a place to store ALL of the weaponry; the things we have brought and the ones you have bought. I was only half-satisfied with the reasoning you presented earlier, and would have persisted on this had I had the time. I suppose now I do. We need a secure place for all of the weaponry to be put, because if we get found with weaponry, we will be found out and be of no aid to you, and your weaponry was purchased from Hutt space, and since those shipments avoid Imperial taxation, the Empire would find fault with that, as well as finding any excuse whatsoever to find fault with your people having weaponry in the first place. While it would seem that you should be able to have weaponry, the Emperor does not care what you think. I implore you, Guildmaster, to find a place to store these weapons! If the Imperials find them, peaceful negotiations will be over, we will be of no use to you, and your people will not have weapons."

Galahad will state to Drakkon that he fully agrees with the Duchess.

"The possession of weaponry would be perfectly fine if we weren't dealing with his Imperial Majesty and his army. Possession of untaxed weaponry is definitely more dangerous in this situation, if it is indeed from Hutt space."

Well, seems my extra day's generosity ('cos I am so nice) has paid off! No time to get into details- that'll do, he will store the weapons in a charnel house, normally used for hunting kills (what with everything else going on right now, hunting season is off).

However, due to the various delays, this IS going to be hard. The hour advances, and those weapons have been there a long time with the Imps prowling around. Time to get clever.

HOUR 6

Freighters leave at Hour 7

What with everything else, the other Senators, and their entourages, have returned to the Guild Hall.

The weapons have been unloaded from the ships, which are now refuelling and prepping for departure. Drakkon has arranged for the weapons to be stored, and yours also, but the process of that happening may not be simple.

The Imperial landing still in progress, and will be for a long time.

As of yet, your personal ships don't seem to have attracted any attention.

Let's hear those plans!

Okay, so we need to figure out how to get our ships unpacked and how to get the weapons from the freighters over to the charnel house?

Most likely it would be easiest to have Drakkon send a sizeable amount of Osokans for the equipment brought from Hutt space, and have them carry the stuff to the charnel house.

Perhaps we can borrow some sort of landspeeder as means of transporting our own goods to the charnel house. I think we should just go ahead and transport EVERYTHING there, now that we have a secure place to store things.

Scarlet wishes to know how the charnel house will be secured, unless that is left up to us.

Well, he can leave it guarded, but it depends what you mean by secured.

Ok here comes Stefan with the master plan.
The houses are normally used for hunting trophies and the like right?
So thats what we put there. Get some speeders or transports, toss some pelts or whatever the Osokans use for trophies and ship em over, anyone asks. we open up the back, show em the stinky dead raptor and ask if they'd like to poke around more. They say no. We move on and noone's the wiser.

Good plan there, Cass.

And by secure, I mean sufficient security and ensuring that no one will be able to break in.

What if someone asks what it is you are taking from those ships?

Trading items.
There is lots of trading going around and most of our group are traders/smugglers.
Simple.

Maybe if we got multiple kinds of items? One box has furs and pelts, the next has lizard skins, the next has parts and tools, etc.

Doesn't really matter, just stuff we can throw together. Think "Lord Of War"
He labeled stuf Radioactive waste and the like to escape authorities.

Ok, folks, who is putting all this into operation?

And in the meantime, any other plans? Be sure the Imperials are doing more than one thing.

Galahad wishes to inform Senator Andran that Drakkon has been successfully convinced that the weapons should be stored for the time being.

Also, unless Drakkon has given his men their orders on where to move it, I might be needed to talk to them in the starport, but that would be rather risky for me. I'd like to seem uninvolved, at least for now. I don't think there is anyone else in the group that can understand Osokan but Galahad, so perhaps the Duchess or myself can ask for a protocol droid to loan to those who I think would be most involved with the shifting of the weapons to the charnel?

I mean the smugglers, of course. Kyle and Rhys, you're up, I would think.
