You could take your new mentor, but that might cause some questions. This will cut you loose from a situation where you aren't making the decisions, and Roscoe can be support now that you can do whatever you think best. You pick the missions and the order. Go!

Jaelah lifts her hand. "I will go to the pocket universe with Roscoe, our guest, who we can blindfold during the transit, and whomever else wants to come. I will make very sure that the scouts aren't loyal to Dulinor, and that the portals are secured."

Then we clear out the calibration points in the Rift and move on to the nobles and 'Corps. Garvin, do you think that the Collace mercenaries could be used as muscle? We don't need battalions but we will need special forces."

helvorn wrote: ↑Sun May 18, 2025 3:31 am "Aster, we will need the deepest possible access into the Navy systems and authorization codes. We can probably use some of that in the rift and some of that at Dlan when we go after Isis, her mother and ultimately Dulinor."

Since we don't know exactly what we may need a small fabricator would be a good idea. We also need to follow up on Walt's idea to send a courier to Capital to find out what is going on. It might not hurt to have a portal installed in the system to allow continued monitoring."

Garvin looks worried "Ah, well, now there's a thing. I think they'll argue the Emperor's death and Imperial civil war might be a "force majeure" breaching their contract and requiring renegotiation. They signed up for service in Reaver's deep an' no one mentioned assassinating the current Emperor. The Aslan ambassador might surely see it our way but I'm not sure if that means they'll see it the same - I'm no expert on Aslan".

Kind of a drone data bank that moves a few feet into the ship and download ship data to it? Then it moves a few relative feet through the teleport to upload its data to y’all here?”

”Huh! Surprised by that since we were able to winch scout ships through the large portal. No matter, I trust your plans, Metz!”

He’ll gather a collection of all their advanced weapons, Rexwell Suits, and grav bikes in preparation for setting out.

What? No grav tank? You might want to ask if there is room for all that stuff first. There probably will be but when you are the diva brining all the suitcases on the trip, ya know, you should ask.

Thumper wrote: ↑Tue May 20, 2025 3:59 am Oh, he can take the grav tank? Cool!!!

He cannot. There might not even be room for all the grav bikes. You might have to pile all the rest of the crap in a spare stateroom. Or in your own.
