OOC - Ongoing Game Questions

So we've got two ships and one pilot. Can anyone else fly, e.g. Dancy? Ken has AGL 4 so could take the controls in a pinch.

And what are we planning to do with Blih, NPC him or let him quietly disappear into the background?

What did we do with the scout we had?

Yes, Dancy can fly one ship, and Jeswain and Blih can be on that ship, so the party's "split" but not really.

Ah, I see you've done this before...

just want to make sure I know what's going on. We have two ships we are trying to lead up with survivors, and they will all go back to the wheel to complete the job Reom gave us.
We want to split up Harsol and Cratala.
And there is an incoming ship we can assume are treasure/bounty hunters

Actually, Reom wanted you to bring them to a hidden IsoTech base on Raxus Prime. Showing up at the wheel with 'long lost' potential enemies of the Empire might create issues. Yep, two ships all the crew and incoming ship that is treasure/bounty hunters/worse.

With conversations "split" right now, I am going to go ahead and just start "quoting" everything to keep the whole conversation visible for my side.

wait, are we splitting the group between the two ships or are all PC's going in one and then the rest of everyone going in the other?

I know we decided to split the NPC's but I did assume all the PC's would be in the Slippery Ghest

Makes sense to keep the group together and 'crew' one ship. Otherwise we're running two groups and half of each 'crew' are NPCs.

As long as there's a decent pilot among the survivors.

Dancy can pilot well enough to get by. But yes, there should be some pilots among the survivors.

Cool. What's the status of the other ship? Does my character need to scan to see what it's up to?

It is working the search pattern, heading your way. You can Scan for more information, or you can jam it. They'll know someone's there, but it'll be hard to find you.

Can I do anything to make them think they left the toaster oven on back home? (sorry, happened to me today)

Oh my, I left a teapot on the stove one weekend...

I can't think of anything, all of the ships are in one spot. So anything you do would have to be right there. You'll only real 'surprise' is the sensor Jammer.

Maybe we just blast off in opposite directions? Of just lift off guns blazing

Do we know what kind of ship it is? Could we gang up on it, take it out?

Not without trying to do a focused Scan on it. There's a chance it will notice being scanned.

My thought, we take Cratala and take off in the new ship she seems the most valuable asset to me. Harsol and Dancy with directions on where the rendezvous point is and just skiddaddle.

If we gotta do some fancy flying we do some fancy flying. I am still unsure on how the Jammer works but that will help in our escape.
