This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

McManus nods, "Plastic explosives we have in plenty. Just let us know."

He and his men leave the ship.

OOC - Yep, Sanke was in hiding and listening in.

Sanke leans in, "This guy Krag is dangerous. You never know what he's thinking. I've seen him smiling and talking to someone a split second before he kills him. That guy McManus is right about one thing - Krag is a certified lunatic!"

(OOC - OK, is the stuff loaded??? Does he have any other junk to load as well??? Am looking for Comm Gear that they might want as well. anyway, want a full cargo deck to show, along with the needed stuff. So let me know when all is loaded, including a couple of cases of plastic explosives and blasting caps...)

Once loaded, will take the same route out of town, under any Radar and stuff, and find a place to set down a long way from town, after all, we have a whole planet to set down at...once we set down, dinner and conference for all.

McManus's lads have been busy, and while you were in conference loaded your cargo bay with lots of crates and bins of bric-a-brac including many boxes of parts necessary to fix a water system. Also in plain sight are 3 crates of plastic explosives along with caps, manual timers, and remote detonators.

Lifting off you quickly move some 50 miles out into the badlands and set down for dinner and your conference.

Violet speaks at last, "I'm going in with you. I've decided."

Travis smiles..."I was hoping you would say that...Sanke, your not hiding anywhere, but you will need to stay in the Weapons Center and act as our eyes and ears...remember, I am the only pilot here, and if anything happens to Violet...I'll Kill you, personally, myself, understand?"

"Now let's figure out how we are going to do this..."

Sanke nods, "I ain't gonna leave you man."

Violet leans forward thoughtfully, "You're going to have to come up with a way to get the explosives inside the compound. What do you have in mind"?

"Well, that would hinge on you, Violet. Do you know the limits and capabilities of your "Talent"??"

She sighs, "This is not a "hard data" thing like handgun ballistics, these are just feelings and impressions. I really can't push it, only engage it."

She smiles, "Now tell me what to do. This is my first time entering a pirate fortress to plant a bomb, so forgive me if I can't be more help."

"OK, First, we need an excuse to get invited into their comm center, carrying the explosives, knowing that they probably have it well guarded. or, Second, blowing up their power supply and Antenna Farm, which is probably just as guarded. violet, what I need from you would probably be a soft, subtle "we can be trusted" type of thing. Sanke, what can you tell us about their setup???"

Sanke chew his lip thoughtfully, "Hmm...everything above ground is pretty well open - once you get past the front door. I heard some of the dudes there saying that Krag lives on the top floor and no one gets up there without a heavy escort. I do know that they searched me pretty good when I came inside. I think you're really gonna have to hide those explosives really good to beat them at their game."

"To go below ground you're gonna need to take a service elevator - there's two of them - one on each side of the lobby, and there's always a dude or two hanging around in the lobby area. Not sure of the layout downstairs - Krag don't like anyone going down there unless its one of his techs going down to fix something. I did have my ear to a door one time and heard some dude talking about "sublevel three", but I ain't sure what he was going on about."

Travis sits back and mulls over the information...after a short while, Travis sits up...

"OK, the way I see it, and if I was running the place, the first problem would be getting access, safely. If we place explosives in the Water Treatment equipment, it can be traced back to us...so I have an idea..."

Travis contemplates a few minutes...

" Something I've done successfully in the past, but am hesitant to do again, but if this works, we can hopefully be able to have a safe haven for future operations...I am going to infect this complex with 2 viruses, 1 will play hell with comms, and another that will disable the complex military encryption down to a simple one for listening in. Hopefully this might get us an invite into the comm complex to fix it, as well as disable both the main complex and the comm center over at the rocket base."

Travis looks around at the other 2...

"Sanke, you will stay hidden in the weapons center, as rescue and external eyes for us, we'll be tied together at all times with a comm dot on the three of us. Violet...you keep an eye, or mind out for any possible allies, even anybody we can trust to be a part of this crew.

Any Questions???"

Both Violet and Sanke nod in agreements.

Violet smiles, "Okay, go ahead and get started."

"Your right, go ahead and get started...set the hold up so they can see the water plant parts, but look through the other stuff, we're going in as scrape metal merchants, something all planets, even less advanced as this can use. Also look around, who knows, you might find Super-Charger parts, and I need to see anything that looks or is Comm Gear and Computer parts...OK?? I'll be prepping the Viruses..."

Violet nods and everyone gets busy. As you inspect the hold a short time later you see several boxes of computer parts strewn about. Violet smiles, "You are looking at all our engineering comp spare parts. I hope it looks convincing!"

Sanke slides up, "Okay, we're ready. Let's go do this thing!"

OOC - We can wait for Drohem to get back if you feel like taking a break?
