Message: <blockquote data-quote="doghead" data-source="post: 2021420" data-attributes="member: 8243">Devlin, ISB Agent.Devlin switches mental tracks for a moment, putting himself in the shoes of the rebels looking for the agent."If you would bear with me for a minute ... " Devlin glances in Rannicks direction. Assuming he gets the nod."If I were a rebel, I'd be hoping to be able to find the fighter and/or agent and slip out while avoiding any Imperial entangelments. Assuming that the planetary lockdown has reached the local news services, the rebels are going to take it that we know that they are here. At least, without being able to dismiss the possibility, they will work on the assumption that it is so."So it would seem that there is no reason to keep the search quiet hoping to lull them into a false sense of security. Instead, I think that we should inform our people that we are looking for someone who came down in the Western Desert. That way, someone who runs across the rebels might put two and two together and alert us when otherwise they might not have."Equally, if someone else, a third party, finds or agent first, they will know where to come. I assume that the independant parties on this planet would rather work with us than fight us."Perhaps a bounty. It would be an incentive for any third parties involved to work with us. The only question is, would it make our target too interesting? Are there any third parties on this planet ballsy enough to risk irritating the Emperor by trying to dig out of the target why it is we want him?</blockquote>
