[WIP] Bowex Supply Run to Tau-23 - Fletcher - 07-23-2011 This event is currently a work in progress, so bear with my as details are yet to be complete, but there appears to be enthusiasm from the locals. Background With the Kusari Naval blockade of the Leeds jump gate into the Tau sector, Bretonian assets have suffered from chronic supply problems, those daring enough to supply these facilities are usually treated with hostility to the Kusari forces, but are treated with many credits from the Bretonians. However, reliance on third-parties needs to be stemmed, and Bretonian assets must be supplied by Bretonians proper. Therefore, plans were being drawn up for the Borderworld Exports company to smuggle supplies to the furthest outpost in Bretonian hands. The Bretonian Mining & Metals Tau-31 Gate Construction site. Recent reports show that due to a chronic lack of supply of Gate Lane parts, the Tau-31 gate's reliability could be called into question, attempts for Ageira to supply the station has led to mixed results. Bowex is needed to re-supply the station with parts, food and medical supplies. The gate must remain operational. Possible Factions involved
Independent players? - Welcome, though no capital craft and tone down on bombers. Objectives Merchant Fleet
This is the information that has been planned right now, I am attempting to get in contact with all the factions listed above, though my fellow Bowex players seem enthusiastic, as well as early indications from the KNF faction. So I shall post a draft here as reference and to see if anyone else would like to join. Why not have BAF some of you may wonder? I'd like to keep full blown Bretonian military assets out of this mission since they'd attract too much attention, and this isn't a military mission really, its a quiet supply run. So this is the draft, feedback is appreciated from everyone as always. EDIT1: Rules updated. Potential Outcast attendance considered. EDIT2: Contact me on Skype for easier discussion if wanted, address is liam.fletcher.riordan. Please message me who you are as you request, since I'm a paranoid boy. [WIP] Bowex Supply Run to Tau-23 - Echo 7-7 - 07-23-2011 Interesting idea. I question the motives of the BD and the GC, though. Keeping the Tau-21 Site active means that Bretonian and IMG interests approach Outcast territory, and get dangerously close the Cardamine supply route. The question has to be asked whether the GC are happy with having the Gate active, and punish the KNF, or whether they would rather stay out of the entire affair (or prey upon the convoy). And not to stop independents participating, but only Bowex) members can have Gate/Lane Parts in their hold. Perhaps transports might like to find other necessary supplies to take to the Construction Site. [WIP] Bowex Supply Run to Tau-23 - Fletcher - 07-23-2011 Hmm, the BD and GC is questionable, maybe they'd help out for a cut of the supplies. Hmm, having Outcasts may be interesting, but I'd assume they'd be on their own side attacking both sides. I can agree with the Bowex members carrying the gate lane parts, and various other supplies have been discussed. Food Rations, Water, Consumer Goods, H-Fuel, Pharmaceuticals. [WIP] Bowex Supply Run to Tau-23 - Fletcher - 07-24-2011 Ok after a few more words with varying people, here are a few more details.
[WIP] Bowex Supply Run to Tau-23 - AeternusDoleo - 07-24-2011 Recently the Gauls (GRN) have become a player in there as well. Might want to see if they're interested in making this a three way fight... [WIP] Bowex Supply Run to Tau-23 - Fletcher - 07-24-2011 Hmm, I hadn't really put much thought into the GRN involvement, though the idea did cross my mind. I just don't see why or how they'd want to jump in. [WIP] Bowex Supply Run to Tau-23 - Elven - 07-24-2011 Jumpgate to Tau-31 is itself finished, people needed G/L parts to complete tradelanes in system. You can see up to 3-4 unfinished rings if you know where to go. [WIP] Bowex Supply Run to Tau-23 - Fletcher - 07-24-2011 True the gate is finished, and the lanes are down, although, they head straight to a KNF Battleship, it wouldn't be idea for the lane to ba active at this time. Though the Jump Gates itself are highly advanced pieces of kit, they still needs parts, and the local Tau-23 radiation only makes the need higher. Hence the need to ship the parts or risk losing a vital link to the system. [WIP] Bowex Supply Run to Tau-23 - Ryummel - 07-24-2011 Can't say much about BD, probably the task force assigned to Tau-31-29-Leeds front would come across this furball and engage the KNF. However, it's not like they would actively assist Bowex/QCP either. [WIP] Bowex Supply Run to Tau-23 - Azan27 - 07-26-2011 Try and get [Convoy] in on this. Just the sort of thing they like to do. On another note, I would like to participate in this once it's date is set. You already have my skype info. Super duper koala bears. -Az |
