OOC:
are all the other freighters Felucia Freedom League ships, or ships-for-hire like us?
Nov 4, 2023 11:32 pm
OOC:
Most of the ships are FFL, there were only 3 'extra' ships. The other two appear to have left already as well as a couple of the FFL ships.

OOC:
lol, if we survive. Let's offer amd see what they say. Although AD-hoc isnt best suited for this.

'This is the crew of the Slippery Ghest. We can make ourselves available to assist in defending the salvage in return for appropriate remuneration. Please forward your offer...'

OOC:
Ken will give it a go. Gave him a Blue for the pirates being in a bit of need.

"By the stars, of course a Freelancer hangs around while our own ships jump away. How's 5,000c and a cut of whatever we can load on your ship? If that suits you, head to the main hangar. The crew is moving things there to load. Either way, hurry up, it won't belong before the Imps start sending their troops over to try and retake us."

OOC:
I'm thinking we should warn the Empire that the dreadnaught is rigged to explode, it may buy us some time. Should we try to convince the Imperial droid to do it to make it more believable?

OOC:
Ooh, I like that idea. Get our new friend to work for us. Do we plan on keeping him or leaving him?
Nov 8, 2023 11:16 pm
OOC:
it may not be up to us. Let's ask him to make the call and see what happens. and by 'Let's', I mean anyone other than AD-hoc :)

Pergano swings the ship into the Dreadnaught's hangar. The pirates are running full speed, moving pallets of supplies out of the cargo bay as well carrying stripped components from all parts of the ship.
OOC:
Your back onboard. Sounds like someone needs to get the droid to a comms terminal and make a Con roll and explain what your telling them. Other than that, you can help load stuff...

AD-hoc will help load cargo. Using his cargo scanner to maximize space, efficiency, and make sure the Ghest isn't damaged.

AD-hoc is able to direct the pirates, or rather Freedom League crew on where to stow their loot. He was impressed with how much they were able to aquire with such short notice. Who knew they were so adaptable? It would cramped ride until delivery, but should hopefully be worth the profits.
OOC:
oh well, can the advantage be that although they arent able to load as much cargo as possible, they are able to load quickly?
Edit: added an in character post to reflect the sucees

One the ship is stable, Nox leads his newfound friend to a less-than-visible comms terminal in the cockpit and gives him a little encouragement to send a message.
OOC:
Any bonuses here? Otherwise I'll narrate my failure lol.

OOC:
Nox, Go ahead and take 2 blue since you've already 'broken' him once. If you suceed, then we'll need the Deception roll to see if they believe the story."
OOC:
AD-hoc, that would have been a simple roll, so drop the 2nd purple and go with the success.

"Nice try you Pirate scum, but there's no way to rig that ship to blow in the time you've had. Surrender or die." The droid looks at Nox, possibly with a hit of 'worry' in its photoreceptors...

AD-hoc is busily directing goods onto the ship. The hold is filling up quickly and will soon be ready to go.
Nov 26, 2023 10:57 pm
AD-hoc switches on his communicator to contact his comrades. "We are almost ready depart . . . . again. How much time do we have until the Empire fires upon us?"
Nov 27, 2023 1:48 am
"Well, less than we had before. That's for sure. They're not too convinced of our sabotage and have given us the Galactic Standard, surrender or die." Nox leaves a short pause. "Our new droid friend seems to believe em too!"
Nov 27, 2023 9:21 pm
AD-hoc will try to find the highest ranking freedom fighter and let them know it's time to depart
Nov 27, 2023 9:40 pm
'Let's get back out into space, we can give covering fire while the other pira...freedom fighters depart.'
