What do you think, Spin? Master Helmsman has a pretty nice bonus but seems it might be the most appropriate choice.

Also where's this mysterious Discord server? :p

We could also make something new like say, Flight Commander if he wanted to go all in on small craft.

I meant niche bonus, not nice bonus. Oh well. And it depends on whether you want to lead strike squads during combat actions. If you do, then small craft specialization is worth it because it's basically our way of causing damage, plus it means better piloting of personal shuttles. Otherwise, big ship spec.

How far away is the nearest Eldar post? It's probably worth it making it back to it to deliver the statues, since even if they're dormant I don't want to risk anything happening.

The only one you personally know about is the one you jumped from.

Flight Command is interesting, what would that do?

And sure then, unless someone's against it I think jumping back to the Eldar base to deliver the statues should be safer.

It's the cautious choice, Though there is a serious question of why Mr. Harlequin didn't simply let us send them with him. However, in a perfect world, we can turn over the statues and look into the requirements necessary to recruit some of the Eldar Strike Craft. I mean, even if they're incompatible with our Jovian-pattern bays, they can almost certainly make use of the Lathe-pattern ones.

Name and what it does are negotiable, Flight Commander (Master of Attack Craft?) would give something like +5 to Attack Craft rolls, something more specific might give +10 roll more specific rolls. This could be something that gives +10 to Follow My Lead! rolls, or a more mechanically inclined position that gives a bonus to recovering craft after a battle.

The Jester is still on your ship, or at least has a place on your ship where he is designated to be. You are free to stuff them all in his room if you want.

You can use your Acquisition to try and get Eldar Strike Craft if you want. I'd put them at Extremely Rare.

I unironically love this idea

Like, I'm not kidding, we might be able to excuse not dropping them off first if we stuff them in the harlequin's room. would save us a lot of travel.

While that idea is fantastic we still probably don't want to drag them around in the warp too much.

My vote is that we at least scout out what random xenotech we might be able to loot. Because Rogue Trader, that's why.

Been having some big troubles with my brand new computer going super-kaput, so I might not have the energy and/or mood to post for a bit.

One thing I was wondering is whether we can use OOC spoilers to try and deal with pending stuff while simultaneously progressing things. It's easier in places like Myth-Weavers or Discord where you can respectively have different threads or channels dedicated to side-quests, but it's worth keeping in mind since I'm curious about the blinking. Plus it'd allow for multi-track drifting without slowing down.

I wouldn't mind, though following up on the blinking would probably not be trivial enough to do at the same time as a normal mission.

Maybe Egan decided my post was enough?

And I seeeee. It'll depend on how curious the rest of the team is I guess.

Lenglon is curious, Indaria is not.
