Andon's Forum Game: Bounty Hunters!

[Solarflux]

Lets start with a mission nearby:

Issuer: Nur-Co
Investigate: We have reason to belive that there is an illicit mining operation going on in Longate, and we want to make sure they stop stealing resources that are rightfully ours. We do not wish for any sort of confrontation at this time, just information.
Reward: 13,000 Credits, Reputation +0.1

Ill take the Terasie security one as well.

[id3nt1ty]

I'll take:

Issuer: Ido Security.
Wanted: Criminal Courier - We have intel that a courier for a smuggling ring in Ido has been dispatched to Stormlord. The ship must be intercepted and the courier aprehended. Vessel owner will likely be unaware of importance of passenger or that the passenger is a wanted fugitive.
Rewards: 13,000 credits, +0.1 Reputation, +1 Awareness

Can I investigate in Ido for any information on the vessel or the owner and possible ports of call?

[member=20]notjarvis[/member] has not selected a contract, and [member=7]Raveen[/member] needs both a ship and a contract. I'd also like to see what [member=52]Drakon[/member] has up his sleeves...

[Andon]

[member=16]id3nt1ty[/member] - You search a few public records, send some inquiries with the information provided to you. It looks like a Lane Trotter has filed a flight plan for Stormlord with a single passenger and no cargo. Even on the best of days, your ship wouldn't be able to keep up with that ship, and it looks like it's been modified for speed.

Angelheart digs into several local bars. Perhaps some remark here, a question there, overheard conversations will lead to more information. The mining rescources will most likely be sold in the system. Follow the money trail.

Would it be possible to get an overview of our stats somewhere?

[Andon]

Yeah, I'll do that when I get home

[notjarvis]

I'll take the the
"Wanted (Debt): "Ramror"" mission

Have a mosey on around the docks and bars to try and finds some information about this Horrid Debtor - what kind of ship he flies and whether he has any known haunts before setting off.

[Raveen]

I'll take the Martin Diocles with Tracker Propulsion Unit and Paramount Budget II Sensors (Min Crew: 2): 146,000 assuming I have the cash available. Can I afford any weapons?

I'll also take the tracking mission.

[Andon]

You'll probably have money for weapons. You'll also need at least one crewmember

[Drakon]

[spoiler=Longate Missions]Issuer: Scion Corporation
Capture / Arrest: Nur-Co's geno-biological experiments masquerading as Scion Cargo. Cargo must be kept intact for evidence. Suspected heading to Belview.

Reward: 15,000 Credits. Reputation: +0.1[/spoiler]

[Raveen]

"Wonderful, you'd think the security services would take that into account before accepting me to find their ship!"
I'll report back to the security services with what I found and charge them 2000 credits for my time. They can catch their own criminals.

I'll take this mission if it is still available:

Issuer: Viper Security
Wanted: Secure Weapon Shipment - 25 Containers. We need these weapons shipped as securely as possible to Terasie for security forces there.
Rewards: 14,000 Credits

[member=16]id3nt1ty[/member] The ship hasn't left port yet. You could theoretically intercept it before it gets a chance to run.
