Looking at the map, we go from Fureden (A55278B-7) to Quiri (E769688-3), then Atelles (D6A58CD-4) and finally Gadoilinia (E5235A6-6).
This is what the travellerrpg.com UWP decoder tells me (DM, please correct anything that is wrong):
Fureden -- A55278B-7 -- Po
There is an Excellent quality starport, with banking, refined fuel, maintenance, and a starship capable yard. Fureden is around 8,000 kilometers diameter. Fureden A thin atmosphere (0.25 to 0.75 barr) is present; the air is readily breathable. There is between 15% and 25% open water or ice on the surface. Total population is between 10,000,000 and 100,000,000. The locals have a civil service bureaucracy for a government. All weapons are prohibited. Civilian movement is rigidly controlled.
Quiri -- E769688-3 -- Ni Ri
There is a Frontier quality starport, with a place to trade. Quiri is around 11,200 kilometers diameter. Quiri A standard atmosphere (0.75 to 1.25 barr) is present; the air is readily breathable. There is between 85% and 95% open water or ice on the surface. Total population is between 1,000,000 and 10,000,000. The locals have a civil service bureaucracy for a government. No weapons may be openly carried, long bladed weapons restricted
Antelles -- D6A58CD-4 -- Fl
There is a Poor quality starport, with unrefined fuel, and a maintenance capable yard. Antelles is around 9,600 kilometers diameter. Antelles An exotic but harmless atmosphere is present. Life support is required, either an oxygen tank or PLSS. There is between 45% and 55% open water or ice on the surface. Total population is between 100,000,000 and 1,000,000,000. A charismatic oligarchy rules over the rest of the population. All weapons are prohibited. Civilian movement is rigidly controlled. Personal privacy does not exist. Police are paramilitary and frequently encountered.
Gaolinia -- E5235A6-6 -- Ni Po
There is a Frontier quality starport, with a place to trade. Gaolinia is around 8,000 kilometers diameter. Gaolinia There is a very thin atmosphere with a taint; a compressing respirator/filter or PLSS is required. There is between 25% and 35% open water or ice on the surface. Total population is between 100,000 and 1,000,000. A charismatic dictator is in power, with popular support. All firearms except shotguns are prohibited..Seeking Cargo
The ship is a Free Trader (MGTv2 CRB pg. 168) has 82 tons of cargo and 10 standard and 20 low berth passengers.
I assume we start without a ships fund. I am willing to loan the ship 100K credits for the use of purchasing cargo. My suggestion is that 10% of the profits are distributed amongst those who invest (in proportion), and the rest (90%) of the profits go into the ships fund.
Fureden has the Poor (Po) trade quality.
Quiri has the Non-Industrial (Ni), Rich (Ri) Low Tech (Tech-3) trade qualities.
Antelles has the Fluid Oceans (Fl) trade qualities.
Gaolinia has the Non-Industrial (Ni) and Poor (Po) trade qualities.

I was wrong btw, I have Carouse 0. Still I think you will have a better change at it.
As for home planet. You can pick any planet you like, probably even outside the sector the GM has made available in the map thread (I did).
This does not give you any skills in MGTv2. Instead you get to pick background skills equal to your EDU DM +3, from the following list:
Admin 0
Animals 0
Art 0
Athletics 0
Carouse 0
Drive 0
Electronics 0
Flyer 0
Language 0
Mechanic 0
Medic 0
Profession 0
Science 0
Seafarer 0
Streetwise 0
Survival 0
Vacc Suit 0
Shipfund Available: 110K (Loaned)

I am sure I took those background skills already.
I am not sure how to tell if the planet is habitable. I like the sound of Daninglory

The vessel is a Free Trader. It can carry, as noted, 82 tons of cargo and 10 standard and 20 low berth passengers.

@GM: I just found this errata.
And in direct contradiction to the CRB on page 16, it states that you do get to roll for advancement after a commission roll. How do you want to handle that?

[ +- ] CRB Text
If you gain a commission, you may not roll for advancement in the same term.
[ +- ] Errata Text
You always roll for advancement, whatever the outcome of a commission roll.

Hmm. Since fixing it would mean a major overhaul of characters, I think we'll just ignore it.

Can we try to reduce that list price by rolling for some quirks?
May 25, 2021 12:30 am
Yes, on the monthly payments, and if you all agree, you may roll on the Outdated Ships table (2D) to determine the age of your vessel, the discount, and the number of quirks she has.
May 25, 2021 7:34 am
I am always in favour of quirks
[ +- ] Ledger
100K (luctius) +10K (Machiabelly) +20K (StevetheNPC) = 130K funds available for the purchasing of cargo
Monthly Cost:
2 (StevetheNPC) +1 (Machiabelly) Ship Shares
(MCr45.342 - (3 Ship Shares = MCr3) ) / 240 = 176,425 + 3778 (Maintainance) + X (Running Costs)

Do we have enough people with streetwise or broker to check for cargo and passengers? If not can one person do both.
