Moving On

[GM Craig]

Ok, ready to move on the Alderaan crew for a couple of things. So, just to be sure I know what everyone's intentions are:

- Nightsahde heading to Karvis III. (~3 weeks).
- Nim entering medical, meeting with someone about Alliance Intelligence. (~4 weeks).
- Trax getting a new arm, getting fitted for armour, and hanging with Nim for her recovery. (~4 weeks).
- Keshani currently exploring options.

Am I missing anything?

[Trax]

Trax wants to try to make contact with the Karvis rebels, but if he can't then he'll try to contact Cali.

[Keshani]

Oooh....playing with Cali is always fun...

[Trax]

Seeing as Michelle already spoiled my surprise for Nim in hangouts, while Trax is evaluating armor, he'll be paying particular close attention on what would suit her as well.

Trax is particularly interested in dealing with/defending against light sabers, Nim will need good all around protection, maybe with some built in interfaces, sensors etc to enhance her skills.   I know she's got some gear that helps that already so if there's anything else that would compliment or shore up lesser, but just as important skills.

[Nim Naja]

Haha, sorry great minds think alike?

[Nightshade]

Mine looks correct and I am ready to go.

[GM Craig]

Ok, Ben - if there's any good-byes you want to make, go ahead and do that. I'm ready to move on with you.

[Nightshade]

I'm good, I shall just vanish like a shadow...

[Nim Naja]

Just fyi I'm going to be packing and moving the next few weeks.

[Trax]

Taking the thread title a bit literally aren't you?

[Nim Naja]

I'd not be the only one

[Trax]

Seeing as Nightshade would reach Karvis before Trax, would it be possible to arrange for the funds Trax negotiated for the rebels there to be sent with Nightshade?

[Nim Naja]

Just a reminder that Nim wanted to see what could be found if anything on bounties for trax and herself.

[Nim Naja]

So for next steps I'm still a little in the dark. Field ops, yes. Passive or Coordinate, that I don't know. Coordinate sounds more suited to Nim's network, but Passive sounds more combat oriented like specops, which might be more suited for Trax. Am I correct on that? Which types of missions would come from both divisions? Maybe that would help. In either case I'm not entirely sure where/what planet they should head next.

[GM Craig]

Well, passive isn't passive. It's things like infiltration, observation, slicing, disruption, sabotage. Some combat, yes, but nothing large-scale. More targeted, including finding targets. You would work with local cells, operatives from Alliance HQ, and a wide variety of informants - once you cultivate them, or convert your network. He sees you in a leadership role.

Coordinate is more of an analyst position, identifying areas and regions where Intel doesn't have data, and assigning assets to get data there. Coordinate is more back-end stuff. Passive is slightly more "pointy-end-of-the-stick" but shouldn't involve many slug-fests. It'll be MUCH more precise than SpecOps, though you might accompany a spec ops team on a mission for an intel reason unconnected with the SpecOps objective.

So, Passive would be more like what Trax used to do, only much more subtle, precise and targeted.

Does that make sense?
