One question. How are we going to stop them from "telegraphing" back home? I know if Miltiades called for help, there is no chance it will come in time.... But how about we jamm ship's comm, so there is less chance Miltiades will send message telling their masters who attacked them.

SIGSEGV posted:Considering the existence of tightbeam communications and the fact that the League has, it appears, boots and facilities on several celestial bodies, it's likely going to be complicated to jam anything but the most basic communication systems, and we'd still need to line up properly with the receiving body to fool anything but the most basic antenna design. Too bad. Pharnakes posted:Like I said earlier, even if we could stop them it wouldn't really change anything, there's no possible cover story that adequately explains the Militades disappearing whilst pursuing us, and if even try it just makes us look weak. We have to think like bullies here, blow this guy out of space then tell his boss "well he disrespected us so he had to die, but we know it was your ship so please accept apology and potentially booby trapped shakedown loot." You are right, but I was hoping we could jam their comms to get few extra hours, or whatever, for our own activities. But it is a moot point, as it seems we aren't even capable of jamming anything more complex than a toaster.

This is something I would have done if time was of the essence during the excavation, or had to do something in a lab. And... I was kinda part of something like this. Cut out skull and some other bones with soil and all, as well as the remains of trash pit or firespot, so it could be examined later and made more presentable. So... bravo, you could be an archaeologist. Also, hope that Idhrendur is careful while making the cut. I wouldn't be surprised that it has extra layers of security that aren't visible. And I have a bad feeling about this unlooted place. Seems to me like someone attacked whoever owned this ship, wiped them out and left the place to rot. Either they were killing heretics or political opponents... or they were doing some purging of the sick.

Projects: 1. Eyes - We need to have some safeguard against foreign threat. At least to prepare our defenses, and not get caught with our pants down (I am assuming assault scenario, not small stealth scenario) 2. Legitimate Salvage - Even if we only get a decent ship, it would heighten our battle power, while spreading it in more than on basket. IT would mean enemy need to destroy two ships to cripple us, not one. 3. Armed and Operational - But, it is not prudent to ignore possibilitz to upgrade existing hardware. 4. Scrapper - Dunno what else to put. Strategy Decisions Sell Supplies – Yes and No – Keep most of them, sell only what is deemed non strategic. Martian Hype – No– Let's wait and see, no need to take sides for the time being Viva La – No– No need to antagonize anyone for time being From the Ashes Upgrade Decision Main Engineering– Surviving longer is more important than hitting harded. And yes, I agree, we are going to get hit, no matter what.

Crazycryodude posted:We should pack some amount of trade goods, I agree with having some contingency for purchasing fuel if need arises. But this would be best done with high value, low weight goods, so we don't lose too much mileage due to added weight.
