What Happened in the Game on 10/01/2016?

(Note: I'm tracking this game from the time I started playing. I know the Calin got kidnapped at the start of the session, but I wasn't around for that escapade.)

This game can be easily divided into three acts. This was the first act: a massive skirmish involving capital ships of unusually large sizes.




But none of our players were actually involved in this action though we asked to participate. No, our characters had a far grander destiny in mind. One that involved us going to the shipyards. And then the negotiations followed. Hours and hours of negotiations that went a little something like this...





(Note 2: We seriously need to consider playing activities like buying ships and other shopping activities outside of actual playing time. I'm sure we could use the forum or massed text messages to accomplish the same task we spent nearly three hours of game time to complete.)


Needless to say, we spent vast majority of the game doing this. And when the chips finally fell, we had a ship, the Casey, Calin, and Warren had amassed a massive amount of debt, and the majority were voting to skip out on payments. In essence, we were hoisting something up our new ship's mainsail..I suppose it's fate that we chose a captured corsair as our ship of choice.

Here's the vessel that we'll probably hold for a couple of months before its impounded and the entire party is sent to mine corbomite on an asteroid for the rest of their natural lives.

But pirates are fun!

Yo ho ho and a bottle of fun...
