Badass Space Dragon 2.0 - Round 2 - Cut & Paste

Results

No casualties.

A few reports of space pirates but that’s to be expected, it’s the most popular hobby in Charybdis.

There was a broken crate on the Dabohaze which means the patrons at Duck’s Pond will be living large on hot pockets for some time to come.

No penalties for those who sat out this round. From here out, -1 GRIT to the cowardly.

Cut and Paste

A pamphlet is glued to the door of your ship. They used that extra gooey paste and it smells worse than Duck’s soup.

Frontier Times
Letter to the Editor

The Unizone Corporation is not here for the maximum benefit of the citizens of Charybdis, they are here to make a profit and to further consolidate their power. This much is obvious! It’s practically written in their mission statement!

What I can not understand is why we, the proud people of Charybdis, would allow a multi-galactic shipping company to monopolize our markets and export our wealth. We won our independence only to turn around and hand it off to Unizone.

Unizone, more like BOO-nizone!

Cutter S. Squamata

The paste is not coming off. Oh well, that’s what asteroids are for. Back to work.

Mission Cost: b15 (Unizone credit available for b18 payback)

Enjoy Today. Make Money. Stay Alive

Everyone came back from their missions alive, almost everyone turned a profit, and some folks had a helluva lot of fun. Well Done.

Some comments on today’s missions

Mission 1 Cheap, low damage mission. However, the payoff depends on how many take this mission. If five or more sign up, this mission will have negative return. Additionally, I personally abhor this mission: Mr Squamata is as entitled to his opinion as any other Charybdian. Remember: in Charybdis, Karma can be a queen bee riding a dolphin on speed.

Mission 2 Probably a positive return mission, if you can afford it. Honeywine had the reputation of bringing luck (LK) to ships that carry it. The libations from Benemede are among the best in the Charybdis. I home someone makes the trip.

Mission 3 Nice work if you can get it: currently only six do. This is a low damage mission with a great payout. May be worth going into debt to buy the blasters to qualify for the mission.

Mission 4 Who the hell knows. But expect to take at least 40 damage.

As always, I welcome all comments, contributions, and contradictions on the mission analysis.

I.e.at current rate of repairs, don’t bother unless you can clear 80 in profit.

Are there any union mechanics around here?

@patrace I started at 13.2 spacebits in round one. I spent 10 on a cloaking device and 5 for the mission. I gained 30 for success. 43.2 - 15 = 28.2 I understand I had to go in debt, but even if I subtract 5.5 for owing bad people money, I should have at least 22.7 spacebits in my pocket. Am I missing something?

Also shouldn’t I be at 22 ST?

I guess that’s one way of looking at.

Me, I was all stuck on the “not the highest EN in the fleet” rating.

Me poor ship, he’s been all bent out of sorts, but, maybe if I pass along your kind words…

YES! The ego of a honeycomb is not to be ignored, and he’s rotated himself into a new configuration:

Duck, I say, Duck! A round of pollen, or your best smoke, for the gentlebeings. And moosies. And maybe something for the clanks.
