Seconded Shia fires up her torch, and get's ready to install the plates we already have.

Isn't it... kinda rude to storm off with a torch in the middle of trading negotiations?

I assumed you had it covered, unless you need help...

[Zako]

This seems very cool! Totally getting the firefly feel here! Just got to think of a role that you guys haven't already covered so I can join...

Also, have you guys thought about buying fuel? The stuff that lets you get around?

[TopHat]

We already have enough fuel to get around. Auxiliary engines don't use much fuel.
Anyway, welcome aboard!

Jyup. Well, we may need a merchant, chemist, gunslinger, rebel... Or you could hold out for something more interesting like an AI.

[Ukrainian Ranger]

Zako, I think marine\security officer would be a nice addition. We need some redshirts

[Thecard]

Yeah, a security officer would be great, to assemble a couple of crew in case of boarding (on or off our ship).  If we ever have some landing party on a planet (are we able to do that?).  A fighter pilot would be nice too.
Of course, we haven't got a shepherd yet.

EDIT: We also don't have a captain, do we?  I guess we're sort of a communist ship? Or are our non-crewmember-specific commands are the cap's orders?  Just wondering, since this is pretty similiar to Firefly, even if it is based off of FTL.

Whoops. Didn't see you there.

[Thecard]

Oh, Got's character is Shia, not Chia.  You might want to fix that, Ebbor.

[Zako]

Hmmm, Head of Personnel would be pretty cool, someone who is in charge of recuiting, security, boarding and repelling actions as well as leading ground or station combat... Now that I think of it, you guys could also use a navigator (pilot could handle this?), a life support specialist (could be automated), a scientist and a co-pilot (optional but pretty cool, could also be a fighter pilot). I'll make do as Head of Personnel though. 

Name: David Chapel

I say that we sell the corvette plasma, the fighter railguns, those 2 small thrusters and have the engineers fix the breech and the lifesupport. We should also look into how much it costs to get our structure reinforced too and how much it costs to have our hull fixed with the plates we have in cargo instead of buying new ones. Perhaps we could see how much it costs to have those military plates melted into structural protection around our vital systems too?

[Ukrainian Ranger]

Big, big no to trying to sell drone parts... They can be recognized and then we 'll have huge problems

[Gotdamnmiracle]

Okay. I have an idea.

Can we have like a ship treasurer/quartermaster that has final say at drawing up the list of what to buy and sell and also takes tally of the purchase votes. It should be a side duty. Would that help 10ebber10?

It might. For now it seems there's an agreement, so I'll do the turn shortly.

Also, currently you're communist spaceship. You can choose to organise yourself, or not.

Advanced tools: 575
Lifesupport fix: 100
Breach fix: 50
Replace as many patches as we can both using our own engineers and platings and spending rest of out money on the help of more experienced engineers. Repair at least one turret and install the plasma. If we keep it, it shouldn't serve as a dead cargo (Hull integrity is important)

Advanced tools are bought, and lifesupport is restored to it's former glory. The Breach in the cargo bays is fixed, allowing you to acces all your storage space again. A large part of the patches are replaced with the superior Teladine plating, but some holes remain. A single turret mount is repaired, and the plasma turret is mounted.
Not much money remains, and as always power remains a problem.

The registration process of a ship is normally handled by the local authorities, but it seems they have other things on their hands. It could take some time for the documents to make it through. Nevertheless, you can still travel around the nearby sectors. After all, registration documents are only needed when passing one of the sector border beacons, or when involved with the police.

You hail the merchant, and tell him you're willing to escort his ship. He transmits you the data on the trip and payment. The ship will leave tomorrow morning.

If you want an action executed by the crew, just type and bold it. If you want it to be done by your character, please explicitedly state so, and use bold +Italics.
Character actions might be ignored during conflicts or for secret GM reasons.

Anyway, going to list combat modifiers just because I can. These are not used in the previous encounter, because the system wasn't ready. These can be subject to additional modifiers from player actions.

For targetting:
Cruiser class weaponry: - 4
No targetting computer: -2
Laser weaponry: +2
MQ targetting sensor: 0 (No sensor= -2)
Evasive manoevres: +2 (Requires thrusters)


Damage:
Cruiser class weaponry: + 4
Depends on rail gun ammo: +X
Cruiser class medium armor: +6
armor damage: -2

Spoiler: Answers to posts (click to show/hide)

As a note about auxilary thrusters. You can only use 4 thrusters at the same time for arceleration, while doing complicated manoevres (like dodging incoming shots) it is useful to have all 8 thrusters online./
