The data you carry is vital to the remaining federation fleet. You'll need supplies for the journey, so make sure to explore each sector before moving to the next. But get to the exit before the pursuing rebel fleet can catch up!
I start up the engines on my T1000 space craft when my h.u.d. Flashes with a tip saying
"every jump consumes one unit of fuel, so keep an eye on your reserves. Buy fuel at stores to avoid being left stranded"
My name is Manon and my crew consists of Hassifa and Geryk.
I open my star-map and decide to jump to the upper beacon of this sector.
When I warp in I spot a small rebel ship nearby. It seems to have been refitted for transport rather than combat. It does not seem to want to engage us and our ship.
I have two options right now 1. Demand the surrender of their goods 2. Avoid the ship and not risk combat.
I feel confident tho so I will engage them in combat. I power up my weapons and prepare to secure their cargo by force. They don't look like they want to fight, they're trying to escape. I must delay them by killing their engine, first I must shoot their shield system with my shield piercing missile to allow my burst laser to fire upon their weapon system so they cannot fire back.
They fire at my cockpit with their burst laser but then my shields block the volley. My missile then fires at the same time as they fire their beam weapon which hits my engines and causes a fire in an airlock. I now have two options again which are 1. Open the airlock and choke out the fire by the lack of oxygen 2. Send in a crew member to extinguish the fire.
I will open the airlock so that way no crew will be put at risk. My burst lasers now fire and disable the weapons after the shields have dropped. now I target the engines. I launch a missile at their shields to keep them down and my burst lasers fire at the engine three times which then unexpectedly destroys the enemy ship. This ship was transporting weaponry. I find a stun bomb launcher and 20 scrap metal still intact after the battle.
When I reopen the star-map I see a store one jump from our beacon, but before I jump to the store I will gain some more scrap but going to the lower beacon first and then the store.
upon arriving at this beacon, I detect a distress call. Local scans reveal that a federation transport is under attack from a rebel scout.
I can now do two things 1. Leave them to die 2. Save the federation ship.
I'm going to save them. I power up my weapons and engage the rebel ship.
