[QUOTE="Ambrus, post: 3327766, member: 17691"] The probot vocabulator delivers Derek's dry tone answer. [color=sandybrown][I]"I assure you I'm much more charming in person."[/I][/color]DRK-1X rotates in place to follow the man as he makes to leave. [color=sandybrown][I]"I could offer you a similar threat, but I trust we understand each other without needing to resort to such posturing."[/I][/color] Unless the case weighs more than a half-dozen kilos, DRK-1X will deploy its second manipulator arm, reclaim its cred-chip from the bug-eyed alien, simply pick up the case and float out with it in hand.[sblock=OOC][color=gray]The subject of legality is still rather nebulous in my mind. What makes this shield system illegal exactly? Is there any reason the droids can't simply acquire the necessary materials and construct the shielding for the ion cannon and secret compartment themselves? They've just assembled a state-of-the-art machine shop in the Venerable; as long as Derek or the astromech are properly reprogrammed, couldn't they do the work during the week? It'd certainly make the proposed illegal modifications more secure than having the work contracted out... Likewise, Derek can purchase the paint and have the astromech take care of painting the combat automata. Even if they've got laborers contracted to deliver purchased goods to the hangar bay, Derek won't be letting strangers aboard the Venerable to poke around. I imagine the HRD should be able to direct the ship's droid pool to carry the materials, tools and equipment aboard and to set up the lab, workshop and weapon systems as well. As for the explosives, five permacrete detonators along with five thermal detonators should be sufficient. DRK-1X will eventually be getting around to combining the permacrete detonators with remote systems as it did previously. The droids are naturally interested in upgrading the weapon systems' fire control computers, just as they're interested in all opportunities to upgrade their own systems alongside those of the [I]Venerable[/I]. For instance, is it possible to upgrade the ship's hyperdrive? Does Dofina believe a hyperspace comm system upgrade it worthwhile? So far Dofina only seems to require Rhyll spice about once a month. How long would a week's supply last her at her current consumption rate?[/color][/sblock] [/QUOTE]
