[SEMC] Forward Thoughts
Re: [SEMC] Forward Thoughts
Technically.
However, I think the upgrade would make you an "Interstellar Capable PMC" which is much scarier than a Starmerc per se which I understand to be merely a sort of "privateer for hire" and would surely involve lace and a tricorn hat.
So you are really something much more militarily desirable like mounted longbowmen (paid top dollar) or the Australian Light Horse - capable of charging defences and then getting off and bayoneting the occupants.

And a bustier and high leather boots, too? Imagine Prerna in thatTiglath wrote: ↑Sat Aug 13, 2022 9:24 pmTechnically.

I figure we will be just tough enough to get dropped in some really deep... errr... stuff.

The idea is to separate (off-screen) the merchanting from the shooting bad people; never mix business with pleasure.

You just want images of Prerna and Erica in pirate costumes.

Well, I surely didn't demand any and therefore if any should "happen" I must surely remain (primly) blameless...
As it goes Erica's appearance is based on a character/actress from the Black Sails pirate show which I would recommend to all but I do also advise watching whilst wearing an eye patch - both to get into character... and to save the sight in at least one eye...

We might need to offer deals to "ex"-pirates
See IC post (placed there for continuity).

Kit does have several years in Ship Troops, but no useful Pilot, Navigation or the like.
Re: [SEMC] Forward Thoughts
I like it to.
We'll also need new names.

Thunder, Lightning and Drizzle?
Odin, Thor and Tyr? (as in "they'll be Tyr's before bedtime")?
Huey, Duey and Louie?
Chico, Harpo, Groucho?
Oh - Serious suggestions only...Never mind

Yes, they are the "very basic" Dragonfly type armed with missiles (three on a rack) and are perhaps better "scouts/piquets" than they are "fighters". Another use for them is as a "flying battery" / ortillery.
I'll declare you have "salvaged" a flight of three.
NB This is an "aggragated" number as although there may have been more you might have to sell one to generate a few MCr and/or use one for spares. If you recall one was being worked on when captured.
This will expand the SEMC flotilla to: Corvette (with Launch), 400t Trader with Three Fighters plus the Gunship.
