>>2322449
We shall for now we should train our remaining forces. Maybe even have the Quarren scientists look at oir droids or send some of Asha's pirate to gather info in the underworld.

>>2322500
I never even thought of that, you sir are a genius.

>>2322494
I feel we should but at the same time don't want to risk alerting anyone just yet. No doubt the blocade must be immense, or it could only be a few ISDs but better to come in armed to the teeth later.

>>2322497

It's a deterrent to their deterrent, make them think we're desperate to get those foundries so they keep up the guard there.

Ask for the Quarren Sciebtist if he knows what happend to the galaxy. Basicaly gather intel of what was the last spot were the CIS ships were and were we can gather more deactivated droids to our cause.

>>2322494
Not yet anon let's gather info first.

Meh it's fine. I wonder who the alliance is going to send to us asking for help to pierce the blockade.

>>2322581
bo3 is very fine. Besides, it is easy and simple to use for the QM.

>>2322582
Well, I dont really see how we could do all that much to a full Imperial blockade. Maybe snipe with the Merc ship?

>>2322616
The blockade couldn't stop small ships from leaving and now with us being a threat the blockade has even less ships in it. We really give then a scare didn't we? We could cripple a couple of interdictors so the rebellion can pass their bigger ships. We could even use our captured Victory SD for that. Or even use the imperial shuttles to board a vindictor and use our troops to get it for ourselfs.

>>2322635
The tried and true tactic of the sneaky lambada shuttle infiltration, almost as much of a classic as the CIS striking out from Geonosis.

>>2322635
The Victory could actually be useful here, otherwise we are instantly KO if we move in big ships. The victory could allow us to move in to the interdictors and blow them up before they realize whats up but we would probably lose the thing.

98+10->108: Lord of war.

You set Kalani and Asha to drilling the pirates while you oversee the new constructions, It's hard to motivate them at first, pirates being more concerned with drinking and sunbathing on the warm planets surface, but between them they find a way.
The way is beatings, vicious beatings.

Your Pirate Scum are now Pirate Freebooters(BETTER HYGIENE AND FASHION SENSE, ALSO NOT AS SHIT.)

Alright so call me me crazy, but I've had an idea. We have pulse mines and stuff right? What if we were to tether debris and bombs via gravity field to one of our ships, hyper space to the blockades and release the tethers last minute, sending the debris and bombs at the blockade ships with enough inertia to shatter most bases?

Could it be done?

>>2322659
First off, I think we should invest as much of this ore as possible into Frigates. To beef up our ability to defend this system and to strike out at our enemies.

So I'm assuming the shipyard in orbit can produce 1 frigate? Given it's declared as "1 frigate shipyard" implying it can only produce one at a time. If so, that leaves us with 40 tonnes.


With those 40 tonnes, we could produce 1000 B1 droids to crew the new frigate and our other ships or we could invest it into further mining operations or some combinations thereof.

Build more mines/improve them and then add better infrastructure. Maybe build a factory underground? Start making automated mining machines so it gets passively upgraded? Build a frigate and as many OOM droids as needed to man it.

also, we have ALOT of money in the bank which we could use to get more material, ships and personnal. thoughts?

>>2322694
We'd need a way to make use of it. Currently we lack such connections. If we can get in contact with the resistance or our own supporters, we might be able to make use of our money.

Although, we do have some ex-pirates under our command. They must know a fence for their stolen goods which could be used as a way to get goods, information and such. Assuming they didn't sell us out.

Btw Machine, timeline wise where are we? Like, has the Yavin blockade been broken yet? Is the second Death Star a thing? And how much have we affected the timeline?

>>2322803
The Yavin blockade lasted 6 mouths. When we arrived in system Elbis received a signal witht he tracker that was planted in our ship. So we are at least on the second week of the Yavin blockade

>>2322813
Damn six months? We could build like, two dozen frigates by that time. Yo this shit'll be easy.

Yup and during that time the empire just keeped sending storm troopers to Yavin trying to overhelm the rebel base.

Garm Bel-Iblis's argument with Mon Mothma was moved up, and combined with the Imperial Fleet being redirected to the foundry worlds, he is about to go off half cocked and break the blockade early.

Admiral Thrawn has been recalled from the unknown regions and has been assigned to finding what Imperial command has Codenamed The Dragon.

Admiral Dodonna is getting triggered on a daily basis.

Random event->91: Enter the Dragon.
Early on in the week, a small comm buoy is hyperspaced into the Minntooine system, and immediately attempts to open a channel with the Fist of Mammon.

It is Broadcasting on a strange frequency, not one used by the Empire, nor is it operating on the same frequencies the Rebellion used, this represents a great threat to your interests in this system.

>>HOW DO YOU RESPOND


Later on in the week the "Housing Market" slips out of dock with your shipyards, crewed with a full 200 OOM battle deoids.

The remaining 800 Naval droids manufactured are currently garrisoning the space space station above your base.
Would you like to Assign them positions on your ships?

Aw fuck. Well this was bound to happen eventually.

You open a comm channel with the buoy, the feed taking a few seconds to load though to the other side, when it finishes you are confronted by a darkened command centre, with Holotables and Maps strewn over every surface, the back of the room is dominated by an imposing throne with a white haired human lounging across it.

Neither of you speak for a moment, both of you studying the other intensely as you wait for the other to make the first move, reveal the first crucial piece of information.

You stare him down, deciding to wait for him to speak first, you attend to several management issues with your secondary and tertiary arms while keeping your primary set on the table in front of you, occasionally clacking your mandibles whenever his eyes leave yours, always looking at him with at least two while the others swivel to look elsewhere.

It seems rather effective, and after a good ten seconds he clears his throat and begins to speak.

"I am Tyber Zann, Creator and Chairman of the Zann Consortium. You're... taller than I expected Admiral." He sits forward on his throne and clears his throat. "I'm rather pleased that my probes caught up with you so quickly, even better that I find you with all of your.. pieces attached, you do have a habit of losing them distressingly frequently after all."

He's probing you, looking for cracks and prodding at what he thinks are weaknesses. It even almost works. But this kid is way out of his league.

"You are wasting my time Zann. Make whatever it is you have to say swift and I may deign to listen."

Your bored tone and preoccupied nature seem to irritate him, but to his credit he only barely lets it show, if you didn't have eight sets of eyes and a specialised body language interpretation program running you might not have noticed.

"Very well, I see you are a sentient who appreciated candour. I currently have the location of your base in Minntooine thanks to the probe, now normally I would immediately sell your location to either the Empire or the Hutt cartels, maybe both as the resulting conflict when they attempt to capture your fleet would weaken them greatly, however! I am currently in a bit of bother and I find myself needing to expand my operations towards the core. Which brings me to you."

I was originally planning on colonising Minntooine much as you have, but regrettably you got there first. I immediately sent a probe to ascertain the strength of your forces and here we find ourselves. I think we can be honest with each other here, if your forces weren't as strong as they are then i'd be Hyperspacing in with my fleet right now."

"But I have determined that the cost outweighs the potential gains and so I come to parlay."

God dam it's like dealling with another Skywalker

"And your Terms?"
You turn slightly as you're handed a cargo manifest for the latest shipment of Ore to the Fist, normally you wouldn't be the one signing these, but it makes for a fine distraction, and you can see that not being your sole focus is vexing for him.

"My ships require a way of accessing the outer core and Colonies sectors, without travelling the main hyperlane routes and occasionally a place to dock for repairs, in exchange I would not only do my best to keep the place secret, which you will find is rather a lot considering my abilities, but you will find I have many contacts within the black market and could easily procure anything you are not capable of producing yourself, for much cheaper than what you might spend on your own."

He sits back, arms folded on the rests of his command throne as he awaits your response.

I actually think the terms are decent but we probably shouldn't seem to eager to accept

>>2323529
Thats a pretty damn good deal all things considered

I suggest we get his assurances that he will be paying for those repairs and that he aid in any defense of this area

In return he can keep somthing similar to an embassy here

He shouldn't be offended in our attemp sure we could be afraid of him but and accept but then we wouldn't have any respect. Let's make this deal very hot and make Zann entretained at the same time. Also haggling makes us able to know a little bit more about him.

Can't win every deal we make. Now we know we need to keep ourselfs two steps in front of him if we want to deal with him anyway. Even in defeat you can still learn.

"Those are good terms, but you understand that allowing armed and crewed pirate ships into my space, let alone into my shipyards will require some additional encouragement."

He looks at you for a moment, then smiles and looks away brfore turning back to you. "You know... It irritates me having to explain this to everyone I meet, but I suppose ((I)) am the oddity, so one comes to expect it after a while."

"I despise haggling with every fibre of my being, what is the point of two men going through the whole bloody charade, one starting at extortion, the other demanding charity when they Both know the rough figure they'll end up at." He sighs for a second before shrugging and steeling himself.
"I shall bankroll twenty five percent of the repairs for my ships, if I am also allowed to set up a base and embassy on Minntooine seven.
I always enjoyed jungle planets, and the electrical storms will shield my meetings from prying eyes."

>>2323736
Hey at least now we know we need to be way above our current forces to push his buttons. That also forces us to move to Muun to get more support for ourselfs. Hopefully with Zann making a dash to the core we can use it to reach other places.

>>2323743
that doesn't necessarily mean they're all dead dude

>>2323747
True. But it would mean they arent friends of seperatists

>>2323743
But does our character knows about it?The worst thing about the clone wars is that you don't know when the skirmishes are happening.

So Grievius could have done it before or after the admiral demise.

>>2323745
So your suggesting that we take over large swaths of the outer rim....where's jontron when you need him?

>>2323750
Can't force persuade a robot. Besides if we whipped then out once. We can do it again.

>>2323754
>So your suggesting that we take over large swaths of the outer rim

definetly we will make this a star wars equivalent to shogi. We occupy a big enough territory forcing him to ally with us in case the empire comes knocking.

Admiral Yularen's reaction when informed that while he had geonosis blockaded, the CIS took over The whole mon cal sector. 1ABY colourised.

>>2323775
What if we have a army of 2000 magna guards?

>>2323770
>>2323770
Ah yes, the Rebellion is going to be weeping tears of joy. With the Empire being forced to deal with 3 different foes at once and soon to be 4 because there is no way in hell the Hutts aren't going to take advantage of the opening.

Not to mention all the pirates and criminal syndicates acting up to take advantage of the situation. All we gotta do is keep a careful eye on the Zann and the rebels to take advantage of their actions. While at the same time keeping an eye on the Empire.

...We really need to wake up more CIS Listening Stations. We need eyes on the Galaxy. Plus if we get lucky they have reports in the data banks about any lost CIS forces.

>>2323798
Rancor are scary not sure if Grievius would have won had they started taming them back then

>>2323770
I want to see his reactiin when he funds out who is the admiral commanding this CIS rebirth.

>>2323770
You know what would really get his goat?

If we stole the stealth frigate Tarkin had, which is a copy of the one Anakin used, snuck past the blockade of geonosis, and reactivated the foundries there.

"That seems like a perfectly good trade, shall we write up a contract or keep it to a verbal agreement?" He seems somewhat taken aback by your suggestion, but the two of you quickly come to an agreement and spend the next few hours discussing the "legal" side of things.

As soon as we can get the old foundries, I'm fine with just letting Zann be the "governor" of the Minntooine System.

>>2323853
Ay, at least we made a "friend"

>>2323810
a rocket to a rancors mouth while he roars does wonders. And droids aren't afraid of facing a rancor.

>>2323800
Didn't Zann had a killer bonner toward jabba? Also i find funny that the empire has Jabba as it's underworld puppet and now we are starting to support Zann.

>>2323855
Same if we manage get him on our side it will be a large win

A thermal detonator in their food pile does the same thing for a fraction of the cost.

"friend" is in quotation marks for a reason.

I'm fine with that we can develop a very profitable relationship with Zann. And once he ask us to go take dow the hutt system we tell him we will more then happy to help....for a price. Then we make the trade deals!

As the next week starts you find yourself more concerned with bureaucracy than you are used to, having to sign and approve ship manifests, cargo logs and hazardous materials notifications. On the one hand it takes an excruciating amount of time, even with Kalani helping out. on the other hand, you now have incredible amounts of traffic coming through the system, with smugglers, mercenaries and the occasional red armoured Zann consortium representative coming by for repairs, refueling or just a place to stop for a few days.

Asha's pirates, now live semi permanently on the station, having converted the old crew quarters into a barracks and taking shuttles down to the planet regularly to hunt the wildlife(Giant Scorpions) or just enjoy the sun.

You're sure you can find a way to make use of this.

>>2323860
Zann hates the Empire more while currently in his campaign against them and then he'll probably go back to fight with the Hutts. Currently, though he wants to kick the Empire's teeth in for payback, once he's done. He'll have the Hutts to deal with because there is no way they DON'T take advantage of the Empire's situation. Which will mean their interests are going to clash.

So long as we keep cordial relations with him things should be fine between us. Either way, Zann is going to busy fighting either the Empire or dealing with the Hutts trying to take advantage. So, for now, he shouldn't be an enemy of ours in the short term.

Keep in mind he also doesn't want to pick a fight with us for very similar reasons for why we don't wanna pick a fight with him. While we aren't by any means allies(especially given our different goals) in the short term we won't be enemies.

Plus unlike the Rebellion he isn't nearly as annoying and trying to recruit us for the New Republic. So that right there makes him instantly better than the rebels.

>>BUILD UP THE SPACE STATION(YET TO BE NAMED).
Build a larger dockyard for bigger/more ships.

>>BUILD UP DIXY-LANN.
Start digging down with the mines and fortifying the mined out areas in preparation to convert them into facilities.

Quick question to other anons what Ratio do we want for our armies? How many B1s per B2s and Commandos so on so forth?

>>2323980
We can but if we have a army we can conquer other worlds we could even give support for the separatist cell on Talos with more soldiers.

>>2323912
20 ore - more mines
5 ore - 50 commandos
10 ore - 250 b1 battle droids
5 ore - 15 magnaguards
10 ore building up space station

>>2323989
We should ivest at least some into further income every week. If your production is low we won't be able to compete

>>2323969
If we launch an attack on them and come back from that defeat, it will show the galaxy that we are willing to bleed before this fight's through instead of sit on our collective assets.

>what Ratio do we want for our armies?

We may be wanting something like a heavy group of soldiers and light vehicles i want to take a factory world so we can start pump heavy vehicles. But most likely we will need to take the foundry worlds for that.

>How many B1s per B2s and Commandos so on so forth?

My sugestion?

500 or 1000 B1's
250 or 500 B2's
50 or 100 Commandos
20 or 30 HMP Gunships
10 or 20 AAT
