The Great Pennsylvania Neon Rush - Ironwatsas - 09-10-2012

Since the Zombies are <strike>postponed indefinately since everyone is too scared</strike> being saved for Halloween, I've decided on a much simpler event. The premise is this:

Quote:A small Mining Group has discovered a windfall of <strike>Neon</strike> Helium in the Pennsylvania system, and has begun mining in the hopes their fortunes will grow. Having hired a number of Freelancers and Citizens to collect the Neon, a convoy has been planned to move the Neon to Malioboro Station in Kusari (which is in need of a new generation of bar lights).

However, local ne'er do-wells have noticed the peaceful and innocent mining operation, and have made a sinister plan; to steal the Neon and blow up the upstart pilots! With limited resources and a little luck, can the Miners outwit the Pirate Hordes?!

The Kicker is this: Both parties may only use basic ships.

Miners Will use a Freelancer ID and be Limited to:
  • Rhinos
  • Starfliers
  • Startrackers
  • Defenders
  • ONE Surveyor for mining purposes
The Surveyor may only have up to class-4 weapons, mining lasers, and a class-4 shield.

Pirates will be of the following factions and be allowed the following Ships:

Liberty Rogues
  • Bloodhounds
  • Mules
Xenos
  • Starfliers
  • Startrackers
Lane Hackers
  • Daggers
Hellfire Legion
  • Daggers
The Pirates may choose how to arrange themselves, ally their forces (temporarily) or not. Where to ambush or weather to attack the Mining site pre-emptively.

The Miners and their escorts must survive and deliver 10000 units total of Neon to Malioboro station in New Tokyo. Pirates may attack any miners between Pennsylvania and Shikoku.

I'd like some feedback on when this would happen and who would be available to participate so we can work out a timeline.

Even if I don't have enough free time for participating at ingame events, I applaud you for this idea.
These kind of events can be really amusing.

LR-Serious.Pacifist would gladly sign up his fearsome Bloodhound for such sick massacre.


The Great Pennsylvania Neon Rush - Death.RunningVerminator - 09-10-2012

Oh my this is delicious.

Though is it only restricted to official members? If so, I'd change that since HF and LR wouldn't be working together.


The Great Pennsylvania Neon Rush - Ironwatsas - 09-10-2012

Nah. Anyone can join.

If HF and LR don't like each other they can form two different squads at either end of Liberty. It's up to them to figure it out.

i am in

Alrighty. I was thinking of planning this around the 29th or 30th of this month. Gives us a while to round up members (and most of the RL crap I have to deal with personally before then to clear up).

If anyone has any opinions on weather it should be done earlier or later, please let me know.

Also, we need more Rhinos and Security Guards to balance out the Pirates. Keep that in mind.

HF aren't pirates, and we'd be shooting the Rogues and Hackers.

Passed on the link to this event to my people.
