Just so we are clear when I eventually order these guns. What sorta pistols are we looking for?

Autopistol, 9mm
Autopistol, 7mm
Body Pistol*, 7mm
Pistol-SMG, 7mm {Auto:3}
Revolver, 9mm
Snub Pistol**, 12mm
Spear-Gun

Is there interest in any other fire arms for the ship?
More shotguns?

FYI - Body Pistols are unlikely to be offered over the counter. You already have snub pistols (CitizenArms S-10P) coming out of your ears. 7mm pistols are generally more specialist than 9mm ones as 9mm Fleet Ammunition is the standard for pistols since forever. Pistol-SMGs (e.g. ID-90 SMG) are illegal unless for the protection of mails. Spearguns are the kind of thing you'd get for sport-fishers - which is a rare entertainment in the belt.

Having said that, there are some weird and wonderful things about should you require odd ways of inflicting injuries on fellow humans. Just ask!

If I’m being honest, and why shouldn’t I be?

I want Thacho to punch a guy wearing Knuckle Blasters…like…yeah.

Also…Spear Guns could win Nuke fights?

Are we willing to trade or sale some of our snub pistols? We have over twenty correct? Take our ship inventory down to 10?

That seems reasonable.

I imagine the reason the ship didn't respond is that Nālani cut the computer off from comms. Good to know that worked. You could call direct to Indrani, perhaps her credentials will be accepted.

I also need some beam ammo. I would like the price for 10 cartridges for a standard pistol and two power packs for a cabled one.
One working power pack and a handful of cartridges would do. Depends on the capacity of a cartridge. 5x 20-shot cartridges should see us out, unless we use them for something other than powering the pistol ;)

n.b. While you have lots of Snub Pistols, you do have just 1 round (total) of ammo for them!

If there are issues getting the government cleared stuff from the shop, Noor still has some credentials and may be able to qualify.

Noor is still an accredited diplomat to the New Earth Council.

I’m streetwise and deception. I guess I could just lie? Persuasion is a 0…maybe a combo of Admin rolls from Pranit and Thacho using JoT?

Assembling the papers can be done creatively back at the ship with the guys in the shop as delivery guys! Preparation counts as much as Execution.

Still getting dialed in to the setting, any chance Angelo knows/knows of Tyr since Angelo has been in space for a while?

He might know of him...He's one of the major leaders of the Siwan Space Guard - and there has been a recent conflict with the station being occupied by that very guard. You've probably never met him or seen him in person. He'd move in social circles somewhat above your more middle-class ones.

Rolled 8, so know of a little. And Angelo hobs and knobs with the upper class most of the time, since that's where the VC funding is. Tyr was probably busy with the invasions or whatever. :)

You take all the fun out of a DM's plan! :SAN:
