There isn't an Air/Raft available here for purchase, but they do manage to wrangle one of the ATVs from Noorlander (at only a slight markup of 20%). The ATV is equipped with a shortwave radio that will be able to reach the star port. You would have to make two trips to shuttle the advanced bases and the ATV, though some folks have expressed an interest in taking the ATV cross country (they will need to survey a route anyway).
Mr. Karim and his buddy will stay here in the star port. Your other regular passengers have all purchased passage to Shedezar, you may collect their passage now. Mr. Karim and his buddy departing leave you one stateroom open for recruiting a passenger (now not picking up refugees, you will only be able to single book that stateroom).
There are plenty of high passengers (7 to be exact) so you will be able to fill that stateroom.
Cargoes available: 5, 5, 10, 15, 20, 20, 30
Speculative cargo available is 30 tons of Machine Parts at 303 kcr per ton (1% surcharge for splitting the lot is already applied). Hmm, if you bought them and resold them here, you would be guaranteed to more than double your money, without a broker. They are on offer for the lowest price, 40% and they have a +4 sale DM here... Obviously though no one here actually needs machine parts today...
OOC: Just to be clear, we
cannot buy and resell the machine parts here on Fogbound, right? If we could, we could buy a ton, sell it here and repeat until we've sold all 30 tons all for a profit.
Assuming we can't, we can buy 2 tons, after getting paid for passage by passengers and resell it on Shedezar (it is also a RI world, right, so we should still get a good profit).
I think I have it all in the
Spreadsheetnow, but please look it over.
I'm not clear on how many cabins are taken up by crew and what we have available for passengers. My understanding is that a) the young couple are continuing, b) the 7 MP folks are continuing and c) all 20 of the LP are continuing to Shedezar, right?
Is this our loadout leaving Fogbound for Shedezar:
- 3 High Passage - young couple and one of the 7 picked up here
- 7 Mid Passage - the 7 we already had
- 20 Low Passage - the 20 we already had
- Freight 30+20+20+10 = 80 tons
- Spec (Machine tools) 2 tons
I need a date for us here on Fogbound. I think you posted one for Tegel, but I can't find it. I also need to know berthing, fuel, and any LS costs I haven't gotten. So I can add those expenses to the spreadsheet.
