Stat bonuses for the whole PC group is a neat idea so if my calculations are correct getting a supply for the command squad should be as much as getting a Digesta Emporia Calixia. If that's correct, then I'll try to get said supply. Though if getting the Crew Rating bonus doesn't require a Best quality supply of peaches I'd like to try that instead, since then the test would be at -10 instead of -40. In either case, I'd like to haggle with Commerce (Eos star amulet bonus applies) and apply a FP to give +10 to the acquisition test (and a FP to re-roll if it fails).
Also any chance we can just up and try to raise our own magical orchard since we're stealing whatever it is that grants their peaches these properties or did the properties end up imbued there from the Worldsoul's continued presence? I mean, Marco will try the peach-farming anyway, I just want to know whether it'll work.
Also: to make things easier if there isn't a more immediately interest third option and we're left with the two we didn't pick last time, I think we should go with the station but go about it the best way: no diplomacy with heretics, we'll see if some light subterfuge and violence does the trick, namely by doing some raids on the sorcerer's enemies to make them think we're either an agent of the sorcerer's or were led by him into attacking them, so they take it out on the bugger. Going for the less-brainy option that allows combat, basically.
They don’t need to be best quality for the rating bonus, you just need to have enough for the whole class. I’ll write up tomorrow assuming an attempt at purchasing a ship’s worth.
You can try, but I won’t tell you if it will work or not unless you figure it out IC.
I have three more missions ready after you compete this one. All written like a year ago now >_>
