Re: When you are ready
I feel like we're getting close to knowing how to proceed, but there's still some kinks to iron out.

Re: When you are ready
Rob, most folks liked my two prong two-step:
1A: Locate Sovereign and determine as much about the ship as we can, via records hacking, contacting former contractors, etc. Also determine their current activities/interests.
1B: Lure Sovereign crew out with an invitation or bogus (or hell, real) job--either way, get them off the ship while they leave it docked someplace we can get at it.
2A: Prep as much of the forgery as possible, so as to make that step go faster once the extraction team goes into action. Also acquire gear for the B&E, which will likely require some of the intel from step 1A to determine.
2B: Get on board, get the box, finish the forgery replacement and get out.
My big remaining question is about step 1B: It's really not clear if the Sovereign characters are going to be played actively by their own players, or if you're going to be NPCing them, or what.
The "A" steps are mostly intelligence gathering and preparation; we can probably proceeed with those. But the B steps require some of the intel gained from the A steps before we can really continue.
Oh, one other question: The substitution is not going to remain unknown forever. How long does it have to go undetected for us to qualify for the super-payout?

Re: When you are ready
This will not be a direct cross over (although one may be down the road, it is not this soon). So steps will be handled by modified Dramatic Tasks/P&O. the difficulty will be reflective of the skills of those involved.Ramson Gourdaine wrote: ↑Mon Mar 18, 2019 2:24 pm My big remaining question is about step 1B: It's really not clear if the Sovereign characters are going to be played actively by their own players, or if you're going to be NPCing them, or what.
However if something comes up that would permanently detriment a character their player would be alerted as appropriate.

An excellent detail that when reviewing the contract you can see it must be in his possession for a minimum of 25 hours without others being alerted.

Re: When you are ready
I will be posting soon, but it would really help me if I could get Death Otter to post those rolls first. the number of raises will affect what I include in my GM post.
Any chance you could do that for me?
