Hi there,

for the next game I am planning a scene, in which the PCs have to solve different task while they try to find a way through a bulk freighter (neutral faction) under attack. Which task could be pop up during the scene?

If the freighter is neutral, presumably it's not theirs! Therefore:

• Navigation - find their way, especially if the layout of the ship is modified from the class' standard design
• Computers/Security - get appropriate hatchways open
• Engineering/Medial - deal with a (small!) hull breach and casualties in a compartment that they have to pass through (or that happens whilst they're in the compartment
• Social - deal with panicked, unarmed crew. And/or persuade panicky, armed crew that they're not the enemy, the people shooting at them are.
• Combat - a firefight that they need to pass through to get to their objective.

Task - Low Gravity - Due to Hull breach or Damage to Gravity Controller doodad

• Coordination - to navigate around floating boxes
• Resilience - Vacuum
• Mechanics/Computers - To repair/reprogram Gravity Controller
• Athletics - Physically seal a breach

Task - Toxin/Gas Leak - Due to Damage. Checks are basically the same as above

• Perception - If smokey or obscures vision
• Resilience - Toxic or super cold
• Mechanics/Computers - To repair/reprogram
• Athletics - Physically seal

Task - Security Codes - Gain access to secure areas

• Social skills - Convince Crew to grant access
• Skulduggery - Pickpocket security keycard
• Perception - Find a security keycard on a corpse
• Athletics - Use a corpse's hand/eye to access a bio-metric security (not really sure what skill for this one)

Task - Navigate Cargo Hold - Freighters have cargo right?

• Survival - Navigate the rows and rows of boxes without getting lost
• Perception - Find the Mcguffin
• Vigilance /Athletics - avoid Falling boxes!
• Athletics - Lift said boxes off of crushed ally

Other - non Task specific

• Discipline/Cool - to cross a hallway amidst a firefight
• Coordination - maintain balance from jostled ship
• Leadership - rally neutral faction
• Computers - Launch escape pods
