Jailbird and the Desperadoes OOC

By Richardbuxton, in Star Wars: Age of Rebellion Beginner Game

Sentinal troop transport.

Which is basically a stretch-lambda shuttle.

However the cargo bay/troop hold has been divided in half.

Cool. Thanks, I thought it was a modified Lambda of some kind. :)

What would our options be? Is it possible to stay in this ship long term and add weapons and gear? Is there a write up for it somewhere? Or should we go ahead and get ourselves a new tub with options for future upgrades?

Personally, I'd like to move ahead now with my idea of Operation Punisher so I'm already thinking that the bodies we disposed of we should keep their armor as disguises and use them to infiltrate an ammo or logistics facility or better yet an Imperial experimental science facility. The security may be a little more lax than at an active duty base or some kind of a forward operating base.

So sure an imperial vessel would be useful to sneak into imperial facilities though I'm sure the current registration and transponder id would come up as stolen.

The ship could be traded. Or you could go shipless and get good gear.

Or you could use it as an offering to the wider rebellion.

It is possible that infiltrating an Imperial facility with this ship would work, but it sounds like high-risk, high-reward. I like the idea of infiltrating an Imperial facility, however, I think it would befit us to come up with a few other ideas.

A. Trade the Sentinel:

This will get us another ship, one the Empire won't hunt after, but it may not be a military ship so we might end up having to spend a bit more time re-building (not necessarily a bad thing) before we go after the Empire, Hutts, or Black Sun.

B. Use the Sentinel:

@Cartergame's "Operation Punisher" idea, which would give us supplies/information and a ship to take back to the Rebellion.

C. Give the Sentinel to the Rebellion:

Not sure what the Rebellion would do with this option, I would think that they would either assign us to another cell or give us the supplies to start a new one, which could be very interesting.

D. Trade the Sentinel for material:

Not my favorite, but it is an option. But, then in my view this will essentially leave us stranded on Iego, but we'd probably get some good gear for an Imperial ship.

E. Destroy the Sentinel (somewhere else):

I don't think the Empire would hound us to the end of the galaxy over a Sentinel, but if they do we could fake our deaths by crashing the Sentinel somewhere and making our way back to the Rebellion.

My vote would either be for B or C, unless there's a warship for trade, then I might vote for A, B or C.

EDIT: Hey! I just noticed that one of the pictures posted by @TheShard came from a mod I played when EA still supported the servers for it.

EDIT II: I forgot to ask if anyone had any other ideas for the Sentinel, chances are I missed something.

I'm fine with whatever regarding ships.

OK, sounds like 3 votes so far for Option B... ;) 1 Meh-be, and still waiting on@Richardbuxtonto chime in... :)

Just a thought though... Fortune favors the Bold... and we DO have some Jedi and bad@$$ characters... I'm just sayin'... ;)

Edited by Cartergame

I can go with Option B. Sounds fun! IC, Dex will try for the fastest ride on offer, but be happy to fly whatever works for the team/ mission.

. :rolleyes:

Just wanted to let you all know, that I don't think I'm going to be able to post IC (or much at all) until this Friday with finals going on.

Ok well resume the n

Happy Star Wars Day, everyone! :D

I'm back, should I post IC or just let the rest of you pick up where you left off and jump in when I see a good point.

Post! :) p.s. I hope you had a great Finals week.

Go right ahead

Thanks, I think it did go great.

Am i waiting on anyone.

I'm not sure what's supposed to be next. What's the address, is it a place to pick someone up here, or the destination? And, where is it? Also, are we supposed to be waiting for someone, or is there something else that's happening right now?

So assuming everyone wants to scrub the ship she offered you a job to pick somone up... She gave you a hyperspace route to go to an you'll get the coordinates for pick up when you get there.

We can just have me move us there or yall can narrate heading out

Does anyone have an opinion? I don't mind either way.

Or, is everyone away for the holiday season...

I'll be checking in, periodically, and should be able to post. I'm fine with skipping ahead to the rendezvous.

I'll be around but my replies might be a bit delayed
