Saanath has about 20K. He'd be willing to pool half of that for supplies and so forth. This should go towards food, med equipment, ships locker stuff, other necessites. Perhaps even a trading fund.

Not sure if we will have enough for an autodoc though. 1.1MCr (including supplies). Thats a big chunk of change.
 

Tuan is likely staying in some flophouse in the startown, trying to economize for the duration of the blockade, and checking the exchange boards every fifteen minutes for outbound ships advertising for additional hands.

Is the Vyrkris advertising?

I imagine there are a lot of spacers stuck in the gravity well who are plenty anxious to get a move on, and that any open positions are going to generate a lot of response.

Otherwise, he's probably spending a lot of time in the starport bars playing low-stakes poker with casual acquaintances and drinking a fair amount of well liquor.

I imagin that advertising for a position would generate a lot of response. Probably not what we are looking for right now. I seem to remember that the plan was to advertise when we got away from Dukh. However, if Tuan is hanging around spaceport bars and indulging in a little poker, odds are he will run across Saanath, who indulges a little himself. Why don't we work it that way?

BTW. Are any ships being allowed to leave? If we are the only ship being given permission, we will not be able to leave on the QT.
 

Yeah, it might be kind of suspicious, actually.

Little low on internet connectivity for the next few days. Everything will be back to normal (hopefully) by Wednesday.
 

I believe that you can get ships out and get to leave; it just requires you to go through extra sets of checks and fill out more paperwork. Trade hasn't stopped entirely, but it has become a bit hampered and rather depressed. This means there are a quite a few broke spacers on planet and the local merchants are hurting a bit.
Two guesses who they blame for this...

The cartridges for the portable labs... are they Cr3 each? And what do they do? One cartridge is good for one reading of one sample?

Lets go with that. I can't find a reference in the book.
 

Hi folks - just stopping by to say hi :)

doghead, regarding Saanath's very understandable confusion:
doghead said:
Saanath rereads the small news article. 10 years ago his clan had been given an Imperial charter for Bleue Mar ... Bleue Mer not Mur Mura. Saanath had at first first thought it said Mur Mura in the article.

Wilphe noted that Mur Mura was in the opposite direction of the general direction the party was intending to travel, and asked if I wouldn't mind if Treth home was moved, and that was fine with me. In other words, we're retcon-ing a bit :heh:

Saanath remembers:
Treth said:
------------------
* While the Vilani is speaking at the bar, Tretheasofkhou begins answering Ktarlewaweikye: "Bleue Mer was paradise. Green land in every direction, and I owned it all. The grasslands, the rain forest: My wives were all happy there, especially Aofahrkosiyu. Until the Black Day, when it was all TAKEN from me! Not in battle, by an honorable foe, but BY A SHEET OF PAPER!"
-----------------------------------------

See you guys later, and hopefully more often after the new year. :)

OK. That rings bells. I think I remember you talking about moving Treth's homeword.

But the answer seems odd. Bleue Mer is a water world with just a few islands. But Treth said, "Bleue Mer was paradise. Green land in every direction, and I owned it all. The grasslands, the rain forest ..." And Treth wasn't a big fan of the ocean.

Unless of course some of those the islands are of reasonable size. Large enough to have grasslands and rainforests.

OK. When he gets back to his computer, Saanath will try and get more information on BleueMer; maps and history. The scout database should be good for that. And I bet that Imperial Charters are all recorded somewhere in the public records. The scouts might have that informatiion too.

He might try picking the brains of Gywdion and Tuan while he is at it.
 

Ironically Mur Mura is a water world as well, so that didn't seem tremendously relevent.

Bear in mind that you are dealing with a planet larger than earth, of which99%+ is covered by water.

Diamter: 14,400 km
Radius: 7,700 km
Surface Area: 744,682,400 km2
1% of that is 744,682 km2

That's larger than Texas and slightly smaller than Chile or Turkey.

Someone can tell check my math and see if I'm not out by an order of magnitude.
Even if I am you are looking at a total land area the size of Ireland...
