Desperate Escape - Skorak - 06-13-2022 Desperate Escape Vespucci Story Event ![]() OVERVIEW The dream of Vespucci fostering an independent nation intent is dead. Homes are broken alongside the families they used to harbor and the only choice left is to get out while the chance remains. The cities of Erie having retained their independence despite the "protection" offered by Liberty are welcoming people trying to escape. But Liberty has been quick to realize the risk of the fleeing population, branding them all accessories to treason as per Liberty law. Anyone caught harboring terrorists will be subject to extreme prejudice and harsh sentencing, if at all. But where risk is substantial, so is reward. People are desperate and willing to pay exorbitant prices for daring smugglers willing to brave the journey. And while some might consider this an ideological pursuit, there are others who simply chase digits. Criminal groups might also see an opportunity to bolster their ranks and garner sympathy, or serve more insidious goals. With the refugee ships breaking through the Navy's blockade, Liberty sends ships in pursuit, a chance the Rogues and Xenos don't let pass by. Though both for their own reasons. In desperation and to protect friends and families, many of the Insurgency mount desperate flights to make sure ships reach their destination safely. Meanwhile the LPI is filling a prison ship, brought to Pennsylvania with those unlucky enough to be picked up by their patrols. Event Duration:
June 17th(after scheduled restart) to the 24th Rule Changes:
Liberty Law enforcement:
Insurgency:
Rogues and Xenos - balancing factor:

NOTES This event is intended to spur activity in the region and for the associated factions. Your actions will have consequences. Write-Up by @Reeves.
RE: [Official Event] Desperate Escape - Skorak - 06-13-2022 For law enforcement: Was just asked about what happens if the transport isn't nearby as you demand. Is the transport in scanning range because it trailed back a little from the pursuit? Yes it's fine to demand the amount the transport can carry. Is it half way across the system? No you can't. Discourages permanent ship switching. For the transports: If you drop the refugees and shoot them, I will shiplock the ship for the duration of the Insurgency campaign and set it hostile to Insurgency, LSF, LN and LPI for the duration of the campaign. Your character is having a ship full of people. They won't drop and shoot them. Despite the fact that sacrificing your life for a "gotcha" isn't quite realistic either. Anyone who can dock on Veracruz and Erie can run the refugee 'trade' event. RE: [Official Event] Desperate Escape - Saronsen - 06-13-2022 not exactly seeing a point to liberty just letting a ship with refugees go because they can't carry all of them. so what, if im in a bomber with 40 free cargo i have to let the 5ker go with 4960 refugees? RE: [Official Event] Desperate Escape - Saronsen - 06-13-2022 ![]() RE: [Official Event] Desperate Escape - Skorak - 06-13-2022 As I said shortly after, I am going to find a fairer solution that will keep the event active but safe from you. And I apologised if that helps ![]() RE: [Official Event] Desperate Escape - Saronsen - 06-13-2022 ah, so youre taking an entire faction out of the event because your rules are in themselves a joke RE: [Official Event] Desperate Escape - Skorak - 06-13-2022 No as I said, I am finding a fairer solution.
