So If we circled arount the beacon and used it as a barrierthat would work? Or are we to big?

No changing Delta -v, and an orbit isn't quite possible

How about just putting it between us and the pirates and stopping. You said it was heavily armored.

The pirates could easily fly around... and we're probably bigger than the beacon, so we'd need to get some distance past the beacon to get cover...

Thought it was something like that.

(Out of curiosity, why is the jump beacon so big?)

Computer systems, Jump dampeners (to cancel out interference), power generation, and lots of armour.

Since it's a stationary station, there's no point in keeping it light or small when large is cheaper.

I'm sincerely stumped. I think our only option is to roll and hope for the best. Who is our techie? We need him working on speeding up calculations. We need to get out of here NOW.

I think everyone agrees. If anyone can think of anything less risky please stop me but if not I think we should just go ahead.

All in say aye.

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

I'm sure someone's looking out of a window. Now we just need to arm the weapons.

Zako please oversee small team on weapon function and use. If nothing we can provide some flak.
