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

Sounds like the plan is indeed in action. We need to find out about that hyperspace beacon, and then either Cass or I (flying the fighters) should shoot up there and alert the second shipment.

(I'm unsure if you missed my post again, Ush, but in any case, the Vader thing is over. Perhaps I should contact the Commmissar?)

Sasha sighs and takes a deep breath before going on a quick rant.

"Should the Empire discover that he is in posession of them at this point in time, he and everyone in association with him would most likely be executed, which is indeed a great danger. On top of that, should he use the weapons against Guildmaster Drakkon, the Imperials would deem it that Drakkon's guidance is too weak to govern Lanzar and then promptly flatten this city along with all inhabiting it. Lastly, in said battle, as it will likely occur, those weapons would need to be distributed to more than just his own men. This is an issue of unity and survival."

Yeah, I saw it. And yes, that may be an idea; Vader isn't really someone to negotiate with.

-

Asusme you know where the beacon is- you can get all the info you need.

And indeed Galahad is not a bank. Money from his homeworld would be traceable; 'Thespia bankrolls terrorism' doesn't look good. The Idealistic Noble's finance is private and secure.

(No, not really, but it was gutsy!)

After taking a short rest from feeling panic after Vader's comments, Galahad will retake his place on the hologram platform and make an attempt to reach Commissar Esgabath.

Ok, I shall let him know!

So, just to recap, I think this is what we're doing...

Scarlet or Cass will fly to the beacon and contact the second shipment, explaining the situation and telling them to rendezvous at the moon, where we will meet them with our own freighters (albeit smaller).

We'll probably have to hand over the money, unless Drakkon has paid them in advance?

...

In any case, Scarlet will head to the starport to prepare the Tip of the Lance for the short trip.

Drakkon has already paid, yes.

In that case, unless I missed something and if anybody has any objections, Scarlet would like to volunteer herself for the flight to the beacon.

The only thing I would say is that it would help to have someone talky along, and I forget how talky you are.

Not very. Perhaps room in my starfighter for a certain Kyle Ragnor?

(I'd go with that. Eerin can fly my ship, just this once. But until we leave, Kyle wants to visit the cantina and try to drum up some help. Anyone else who is free should try to as well. Also, couldn't we get Drakkon to send a few ships to the moon? And, whoever does end up going, they need to stagger their departures.)

I'll go up to the beacon...
That way we can tell how hard it to actually run the blockade.

Drakkon doesn't have any cargo ships.

Ok- long story short, saving time, made some rolls- you have hired, with some cash from Drakkon, two ships and pilots.

Between you now you can manage two freighters' worth.

Ush, how's the Duchess doing with that guard, eh?

Oh yeah. knew I forgot something.

"Or maybe this is about Drakkon wanting all the power for himself? If the Empire wants a fight, we'll give them one. What right have you got to say any different?"

Alright, thanks for moving that along Ush,
I will jet out to the beacon, and try to set up a secure channel.

You're still not quite a talkie person like Kyle is. You have even less social skills than Scarlet. 😛

Eerin would like to get acquainted with the pilots we hired.

Yea, well I really don't think they need to be utterly convinced..
All I have to say is ok, if you try to land, you'll die.
Dump your shit at the moon, you'll get paid and we move on.

Also I have the best chance of running the blockade and the highest fix-it for the secure channel..
but if Scarlet feels the need to ride along... Ok.
