"Then let's show that we're ready to greet them." Nox grasps his blaster and heads towards the landing bay.

As the three of you make it back to the door where you originally entered. You see from the now powered on panel that the Environmental Force screen at the top of the landing bay powered on with the rest of the facility. The readout shows that the atmosphere and temperature around the ship is now normal.
AD-hoc, upon returning to the Command room, accesses the main console. It becomes obvious that there are probably more menus that could be accessed if AD-hoc could gain elevated access.

Hard Computers check to Slice the computer and elevate your Access to Admin.

I'm assuming I need the elevated access to even attempt to use those guns by the landing bay?Sep 17, 2022 1:05 pm
OOC:
Yes, those too. :) Pretty much all you get without a proper user name is the basic functions and some read only stuff. But since AD-hoc has his built in Slicer gear, he's uniquely positioned to gain full system access.

AD-hoc links into the base systems to see if he can access some higher level functions. "Please be aware that there is a small chance that this could fail, causing unforeseen complications"

I forgot too, so I was looking at your character trying to figure out what you could roll, since without the slicing gear, it would have been nearly impossible to activate the base without trying to reprogram the tactical droid or activating it and trying some kind of con/charm. However...Power
Gravity
Environmental

- Shields
- Turret Control

All of the menus have some submenus, but I figured those might be the first you dug into.

While AD-Hoc works on the computer systems, Ken checks his blaster and grenades then finds a location to cover the landing bay.
OOC:
If Ken got into the ship's turret could he use it to shoot at any intruders? In the air? On the ground?Sep 17, 2022 8:10 pm
OOC:
You could totally use the top turret to shoot at a ship until they landed. The bottom turret would be pretty hard to use with the gear down.Sep 17, 2022 8:15 pm

Nox moves to take up a position perpendicular to the ship. He kneels behind some cover, steadying his rifle on top and taking aim to catch any attackers in the crossfire.
Sep 17, 2022 8:16 pm
Ken makes a run for the ship. Over the comms he says 'Want me to hail them, warn them off? They don't respond I'll open up with the ship's guns.'
Sep 17, 2022 9:54 pm
AD-hoc is intrigued by the options available. He decides on offense first, trying to activate the turrets and have them ready to go. "Pergano, how close are our visitors?"
Sep 18, 2022 2:04 pm
" I'd say about a minute. But only because they're being cautious, if they wanted they could land in a few seconds."
As Ken slides into the turret seat, he can see the ship maneuvering into place to begin it's decent into the landing bay. Nox and Meebo take up their positions and figure the ship is about 100 meters above them.

Ken flicks on the Slippery Ghest's comms and broadcasts to the approaching ship, 'You do not have permission to land. Identify yourselves.' He powers up the twin laser cannons, swivelling the turret to take a bead on them.
Sep 19, 2022 1:42 am
Meebo takes up a position near Nox, so they can cover each other if things heat up.
Sep 20, 2022 12:28 pm
The ship stops its decent when Ken contacts them. "Um, sorry, we thought this place was abandoned. We were... The voice trails off and Ken, Nox and Meebo see the 4 turbo lasers that surround the landing bay swivel in to aim at the ship. Suddenly the ship goes full throttle and disappears from view and, more importantly to them, the line of fire.
Sep 20, 2022 12:34 pm
'Well that worked better than I was expecting,' laughs Ken. 'Let's get this place operational and call in IsoTech before these guys get reinforcements.'

Tarvio System, outer asteroid belt.
AD-hoc stands at the main console of the asteroid base, Pergano moves in front of the secondary console adjusting and monitoring systems like only a Xerto can. The Separatist Tactical droid stands in the corner, powered off and little more than a conversation piece or hat rack.
Down below, Ken, Nox and Meebo form a triangle in front of the main door. Ken stands triumphantly with his chest puffed as the Isotech supply ship settles into the landing bay. Once the ramp lowers, a Sullustan comes down to meet you, followed by half a dozen techs in jumpsuits. You recognize the Sullustan, Jancul, as one of Norta's assistants from Iso-1, though you've never really spoken to him.
"Well done, this place looks amazing and if it's as stocked as you say, we'll be up and running in no time. Do you mind showing me around and what are your thoughts going forward. I know Norta offered you 10%, but I'm pretty sure he was expecting a couple crates of gear and a non-functional hole in a rock. If we turn this into some sort of growing business, he'll be cutting you monthly checks for quite a while."

Ken slaps Jancul on the back and walks alongside him like they're best buddies. 'Right this way, the tour awaits you.' He shows the Sallustan the highlights while talking up the difficulty in securing the facility.
'Of course this place is ideal for an IsoTech stopover, but what it really needs is some experienced operators to keep it secure. And I just happen to know a team looking for a base of operations.'
