[OOC] Star Wars Saga Edition: Storm Commando Raid

[mattmanganon]

@Varshanka So, Gather Information of 18 doesn't reveal any new information. Still just talking about Vinca Rumen's new shipments of the good stuff at low prices.

And with a Use Computers of 9, you aren't able to actually slice into their network in any meaningful way.

[MacabreMoth]

So assuming I appear early enough to hear the salespitch, what is this guy saying in Huttese?

[rush99999]

That's twice in a row you've ninja'd me now.

[mattmanganon]

@MacabreMoth Absolutely, if you want to approach.

@Varshanka Is Twitch having a Vietnam Flashback? Because i assure you there are no random Anti-Empire riots breaking out here. Planets further from the core are, but Hasiki is better described as a Cold War situation. There are definitely sentiments here, but the Imperial Garrison is too lax and underperforming in their "Jackboot to Throat" Duties to really stir anything up. Hasiki's citizens get on with their lives and the Garrison sits back, breaks up the odd mugging or bar-room brawl and rakes in the cash from doing the bare minimum. If anything, the laxness of the Garrison is the main reason why there aren't any real Rebellion flare-ups. Rebels can do whatever they need to without the Garrison doing too much to stop them, but this comes at the cost to the Rebellion that they aren't really rallying the citizens of Hasiki to their side, becasue nobody is particularly bothered with changing the status quo.

Nobody is feeling any squeeze, so nobody wants to change anything. I mean, sure, the Garrison WANTS more money and the Rebellion WANT the people to rise up, but both sides are kinda reliant on the other making a move that is detremental to them in the short term, so neither side really wants to.

@mattmanganon

Yes, being in basic armour and in the streets is causing him issues.

[Varshanka]

ok, edited my last two posts so he's not have a psychotic break. and makes him available for @shovel 's assistance.

[mattmanganon]

@MacabreMoth that will be a Deception roll.

[MacabreMoth]

It really do be like that sometimes (Nat 1 for a 7)

[rush99999]

@mattmanganon

Quick question, are there other people nearby or is it just Vinca, Klara, and Vanovar?

[mattmanganon]

@Varshanka Sorry for not getting back to you so far. Just note that the shuttle is locked so the loading ramp isn't down.

[mattmanganon]

@rush99999 There's a couple of passers by, but not exactly a crowded area. So, yes, if you want to try and rough him up without anyone noticing, that is an option.

[mattmanganon]

Right, 3 days since last IC post. Who is waiting on who? Or is everyone waiting on me?

[rush99999]

Now that my question is answered you can expect a post from me before day's end.

[Varshanka]

I'm at the Boarding ramp waiting on @Lurking Krog for a code

[mattmanganon]

@rush99999 The use of violence will specifically yield unfavourable results. If you want to roll Perception, you may get a clue as to why.

@mattmanganon

That's a 20.

[mattmanganon]

@rush99999 Right, so you know that physical violence is actually a REALLY terrible method of information extraction. They tend to tell you what they think you want to hear as opposed to what you actually want to know. His ship doesn't match the description of any of the ships that partake in the attacks, meaning he's probably not actively involved. His loyalty is most likely... Malleable...
