Arcane Tower

 Hey Guys, 

Just starting a post for this weekend, hope everyone is doing well.  I will next be available on Sat the 11th, so hopefully we'll be able to continue with Pathfinder.  Have fun this Sat and see you in a couple of weeks.

 Unless another GM is planning something, Star Wars again.

XP Award for last session ; 202100814: 100 XP (pushing to the next story, and got a lot done)

Duty Award for last two sessions combined: 10 (total of fifty for the group) 

With the new award, your total XP should be 2450 (plus racial). Think of an attachment or mod you want (some will be granted, some will be made quest objectives).

Stan-Lee purchased 45 dum-dums and 5 construction droids (one of which Dr. Boring paid for). They are currently overhauling the ARC-170 to get it flight-ready (one day if all of them are working on it). Nova spent the week gaining control over the looted dismantler droids taken form the Yarma scrap yards (use the construction droid stats, but size two and can fly). The team has acquired a lucrehulk (with a backup hyperdrive), which still needs a hyperdrive, and a half-armed (port side only) venator for the mandalorian mercenary fleet. They are currently hiding at Iego, and are available for your raiding missions, but should really wait in the work queue for repairs.

There are twelve arquitens (one claimed by Dr. Boring), two mobile spacedocks, four munificents, two neutron stars, a keldabe and a dozen each c70 chargers, deep space recovery vehicles and nu-class shuttles awaiting significant work in the landing bays of the lucrehulk, missing all weapons and hyperdrives except for the flak cannons, missile/torpedo tubes and mass drivers (although all ammo for said weapons is also looted). You have three hyperdrives suitable for silhouette 7 starships, two suitable for silhouette 6 starships and one for a silhouette 5 ship.

The technicians of Iego are currently working on their existing three space stations, Two silhouette 10 space stations and a silhouette 7 mobile spacedock, and working on the pelta-class frigate and star destroyer already acquired. Convincing them to switch priorities from defense to acquisition that will benefit you more than them won't be easy, but they aren't ungrateful, just busy and fearful. Working on their defense, evacuation and trade fleets isn't just in their best interest for safety and security, but also makes them feel much happier. Three of the ships slated for the mandalorian mercenary fleet are next on their list unless you convince them otherwise as well. Convincing them to work on the mandalorian ships that you can then use for your raids would be beneficial to your raiding, or putting your stock of hyperdrives to use for raiding ships or for selling would also be extremely useful to you, and even help you help them more, but that doesn't make them feel as secure as working on defense ships. So you have to charm or negotiate them into altering their priorities by telling them what the other ships could do for them. Without weapons, the ships might be marketable at shadow ports for a quarter of their stock price, more if you can get more weapons and ammo for them. The mandalorians really want the keldabe and the Iegoians hope to get the neutron stars (but don't want to say anything since to do so would make them appear even more ungrateful).

 XP Award for last session - 202100807: 100 XP (pushing to the next story)

With the new award, your total XP should be 2350 (plus racial). Think of an attachment or mod you want (some will be granted, some will be made quest objectives).

Your current mission is to acquire, by any means, capital ships to act as home and business fleets for both House Krevan and the citizens of Iego, and create pirate fleets and a business fleet for yourself. 

So far, you have obtained a stripped Acclimator and a fully functioning Cantwell for the House Krevan mercenary fleet, a Munificent for the pirate fleet, the parts for a mobile space dock for Iego and a c70 Charger that doesn't have a stated identity yet (needs a hyperdrive, but has weapons). 

You know of two accessible ship yards that might have light enough security to steal from: 

1) The shipyards at Ord Trasi where Imperial I-class star destroyers are being refit into Imperial II-class star destroyers, and Arquitens light cruisers are being refit into Aqruitens command cruisers. There is a heavy imperial presence in space here; getting caught will require an all-out war to escape.

2) The scrap yards of Bracca. Venators and Acclimators and some smaller ships are being stripped of the most valuable parts in space then de-orbited to the surface of Bracca for further recycling.  The imperial presence here is significant, like Ord Trasi it will require an army to escape. Unlike Ord Trasi, hiding here may be easier. The ships here may be less useful, but it might be a good spot to get parts.

3) You have identified an area of empty space that seems to have been of interest to the CIS, maybe something useful is there.

4) Simple piracy is also an option, just more likely to push you all further down the morality track... but might be worth it to capture some Zygerian ships.

Remember, all of the ships you have sought so far have been missing their hyperdrives, and hyperdrives are big (two sizes smaller than the ship they are used in). Your deep-space recovery vehicle, could carry a silhouette 4 hyperdrive, but most other silhouette five vehicles don't have the space required.
