It's been two weeks hanging around the asteroid base. You've had time to pick up some gear and using the workshop, your armor and weapons are back in tip top shape, and looking Shiny.
Dancy requests you come to her office for a 'job'.
"Well gentlemen, I've got a hot one here if your interested. It seems this whole 'Rebellion against the Empire' thing is heating up in some sectors, meaning the Empire is redistributing their fleet. I've been approached by a group that's eyeing a Clone wars Dreadnaught that's just shown up over Felucia. These things are huge and clunky by today's standards, but they still pack some firepower if you can crew them. Normally, I'm all in on a job like this, but I'm pretty sure the 'Felucia Freedom League' is just a cover for some pirates, probably the Star Dusters, that run out of the Tion Cluster. I don't mind helping these types take out an Imperial ship, but I can't see it helps any of us to let Pirates run free in a Dreadnaught. " She pauses for a moment to smile at Ken.
"Of course, that's where you come it. This FFL has asked if they could hire some crews to back them up in assaulting the ship. They have plenty of bodies, but they're having trouble pulling together enough small ships to be able to attack from multiple points. They want me to provide three ships to deliver a dozen guys each to different entrances to the ship to help spread the attack. They think if they can lock down the main hangar, the bridge and the engines, then they can lock up the ship and clean out the Imperials one corridor at a time. But since we don't want them to get away with a working ship, I need someone to fight their way to the engines and destroy them. I assume, once the fighting looks bad, the Dreadnaught crew will start to scuttle the ship. I'd like you guys to make sure the engines get blown, without necessarily blowing up the whole ship or yourselves. It won't be the perfect outcome for the FFL, but there'll be plenty of gear to strip and the Empire will be down a major ship."
Sipping her cafe, she lets you absorb the offer.
