gah we got thread-jacked

[SHAD0Wdump]

No you didn't. :O

Um... lets explore the area above the ion corridor...

[CJ1145]

I'll save the thread! Whipping time!

Aboard the Unwanted Vasectomy...

Arkham: Damn it, Wil, work faster! You'll never fix the engines at this rate! Why the hell did you go to Engineering school in the first place!?
Wil Wheaton: I didn't! I went to--
Arkham: *Cracks whip* I don't want to hear it, you plague on humanity! Work faster! I want those engines fixed in an hour!
Wil Wheaton: They'd be fixed now if you hadn't killed Welshy while trying to kill me! This is all your fault!
Arkham: That's crazy talk! An officer is in charge of his men. That means when something goes wrong, it is an officer's duty to blame his men!
Wil Wheaton: Are you insane? That's not what an officer is supposed to do, he's supposed to take charge and be fully responsible for his men, no matter what!
Arkham: Damn it, Wil, either those repairs are done in the hour, or so help me I'll let the Yao Guai out to stretch their legs!
Wil Wheaton: Oh, God no!
Arkham: Then work faster, wretch! *cracks whip*

In a less spammy de-jacking, I say we take out that Fairies place. I'm telling you, we'll get some serious space cred for owning an entire planet/asteroid thing.

Six ships is a lot, I can't take anymore. We do now officially have a couple people on the waiting list though, so if anyone knows they can't be active in the thread, say so. Bear in mind that posting before a battle (or giving a good excuse to be absent for a period) dramatically increases your chance of escaping in a life pod. I'm pretty that death (assuming you still want to be in the thread) would put you at the back of the waiting list. We'll see when it comes to it. At any rate, please state if you have to take a hiatus or leave for some reason.

Back to the game!

>SOUTHWEST
You are in a stretch of space, empty except for the occasional bit of asteroid debris. To the south you see the Ion Corridor, a swirling nebula which forces asteroids from the great ring above and below it. To the west your sensors indicate Faires, a small (relatively) space station, which is the farthest colony of the Tribunal. You do not know what, it anything, it is adjacent to.

>HIT WIL
What do you want to hit him with?

>WHIP
He lets out a yelp and redoubles his efforts to appear to be fixing the engine.

As much as I really think this is going to go badly... Head to Faires.

I'm not suggesting an attack yet, but at the very least a quick recon mission could be pulled off. If it looks too tough to attack, don't. Instead, consider dumping the prisoner and running like hell. If we can take the place, by all means do, but start shuttling the loot off world before the inevitable overwhelming counterattack comes. If we have time, it might be a good idea to turn some of the loot into fortifications to help beat back the tribunal and secure our retreat.

[zchris13]

Can somebody say "MacGyvered nuke"?

[SHAD0Wdump]

Faires is a bit away from Tribunal,I predict a slightly lower chance of meeting resistance.

So yeah... lets go there. We'll decide whether to trash the place after we get a look at their defense systems.

[Diakron]

follow every1 else

[Zorgn]

Faires is a bit away from Tribunal, I predict a slightly lower chance of meeting resistance.

Maybe not Tribunal, but somebody has a highly guarded trade route connecting to it from unknown space. The T-VI to Faires route is lightly guarded, but that blue one makes me wonder how much resistance we're going to get.

[SHAD0Wdump]

Oh hey.. didn't notice it being blue,yeah looks alot more dangerous in my mind now. Still,wouldn't(shouldn't?) hurt to take a look and back off if it looks dicey.

[Sensei]

Alright, I'll have a layout of Faires soon.

[Sensei]

Sorry, this is going to have to wait till tomorrow... regrettably, my BF install has gone wack again, and I'e got other obligations so I shan't be fixing it right now.

[Sensei]

Huh. NOW it works. I can't wait for a stable version of this friggin' thing... (if you insist that spaceshipsgopewpew.exe is stable, then assume the statement refers to Vista).

Alrighty. You arrive at Faires. Or, at least, the coordinates. Or you THINK they're the coordinates. Anyway, all you see is 'roids.


While you're here, you're encouraged note the pimpin' flamethrower on SHADOWdump's ship. Inside, it is connected to a polished obsidian lever capped with a human skull, with flawless fire agates for eyes, just within arm's reach of the captain's chair. It is of note that all three articles in question menace with spikes.



What do you do?

[SHAD0Wdump]

Those sprites look real nice,any chance you'd consider making a bunch then putting up a download?

Anyway... This place looks suspiciously boring,I say we chart this thing,something is amiss.

[RAM]

Shoot the barrelsasteroids!

(is it possible to make asteroids explode more dangerously?)
