Alliance Supply and Procurement: Episode 1

[Blackferne]

M3PO nods at Rek in acknowledgement of the respect given.

Maybe another one has accepted me as an equal.

[Dood]

Dood waives his hands dismissively.

"Whatever."

He shakes his head as his drinks arrive.

"Amos, I'm gonna need two more of these, honey," he says, indicating the shot before he swallows it.

[Blackferne]

After dinner.....

M3PO says "Shall we go get a holoprojector gentlemen?"

[Bulwark]

After dinner.....

M3PO says "Shall we go get a holoprojector gentlemen?"

Hey man, why the rush to buy? Can we rent one and save the coin?

[Blackferne]

"I'd consider it a long term investment. Clearly this sort of thing can be expected on a regular basis. Anyways, renting requires paperwork which by and large I think we'd rather avoid." M3PO responds.

[Dood]

"I'd consider it a long term investment. Clearly this sort of thing can be expected on a regular basis. Anyways, renting requires paperwork which by and large I think we'd rather avoid." M3PO responds.

Dood scratches the top of his head.

"Well an HP's gonna run us about 1000 bones. Maybe we can find a slightly used unit and save a bit."

[Blackferne]

M3PO goes to the nearest information kiosk to find a components dealer. He will cross check price reputation with quality.

[Bulwark]

"No offence tin-man, but I think a stand alone blue-glowy machine might be better. THat way any of us cats can use it if you are under the sink, dig?"

[Blackferne]

"As you wish Mr. Warc." M3PO says.

[Whiteness]

"All right then, on the way here I noticed a place and they seem reputable from what I've heard. Let's head over there, it's called Burk's Holo-hut."

Rek leads them to the shop to purchase a holoprojector, preferably used, using the credit stick the obtained from the locker.

If there is no chance to haggle, Rek will return to the hotel and have M3 extend their stay another day and pay him his share.

[Dood]

[ooc: I think it's safe to assume we all just end up back at the hotel, contributing for our room(s)]

[Reese]

[ooc: I think it's safe to assume we all just end up back at the hotel, contributing for our room(s)]

ooc: Speak for yourself, i have never contributed for my room. Now, truly I was unaware of a request to contribute nor have I taken the time to try and find said request. So for now, Te'l is a dick who doesnt pay back the metalhead.

[Blackferne]

Assuming we got a holoprojector (not installed in me) for ~1000cr and are all in the hotel room, load the holographic file into it and see what it says.

[Furiel]

Assuming we got a holoprojector (not installed in me) for ~1000cr and are all in the hotel room, load the holographic file into it and see what it says.

800 credits for a used holoprojector

The only thing the file displays is a 3d model of a production facility with labels on the buildings

[Blackferne]

Do any of the labels say (in part or whole) Warehouse 17-C, Paradisimo Manufacturing, Castell?

[Furiel]

Do any of the labels say (in part or whole) Warehouse 17-C, Paradisimo Manufacturing, Castell?

Nowhere are the words Warehouse, Paradisimo Manufacturing or Castell showing on the model.

However on the model there is a building labeled factory. Another labeled business offices. And 18 more buildings numbered 1 to 18. The numbered buildings are all roughly the same size and shape, and each one has 4 large entry doors, one on each wall. On each door has a letter on it, A, B, C or D.

[Blackferne]

Is Docking Bay LL-147 a valid docking bay for the spaceport?

[Furiel]

Is Docking Bay LL-147 a valid docking bay for the spaceport?

Yes

[Blackferne]

And I'm guessing it is like 8pm now so we have 35-36hours til the shipment is due?

[Blackferne]

"We have approximately 36 hours until Mr. Hobbs is expecting his delivery. We have a map." M3PO points to the holo projection. "He have a crate number." M3PO taps his datapad. "What we don't have is a working idea of what sort of security of procedures they have. Do they only open during business hours, how tight is security, if the public can be on site, what kind of access are they allowed? We need recon starting immediately. I would suggest Mr. Warc head over now and keep an eye on the complex and try to assess the security procedures in place. Since I know he will need rest at some point, Rek will have to relieve him in let's say six hours." M3PO opens his satchel and hands Blu his video recorder. "Use this to get a close up if possible on what the worker uniforms look like. Also if either you or Mr. Baniss can get an approximate size of the crate that would be good." M3PO turns to Dood and Te'l "I want you two to get some rest. First thing in the morning I hope we will have video of what the worker's wear so you two could get the gang some warehouse appropriate clothes. In addition find out how much it would cost to rent a speeder appropriate for hauling cargo would be, and if we can get one with a dollie." M3PO turns to Bronto "You and I will plan a route from the warehouse to the spaceport and see what we can find out about cargo inspection procedures used here. I want to know what hurdles we might see before the morning after next."

M3PO pauses.
"That is what I suggest, unless someone else has a better idea of how to prepare."

[Cuspar]

Bronto excitedly nods.

[Reese]

Te'l tries to figure out why the Droid is trying to oust the 'commander' and says aloud

"Well I would think that my services are much more suited to something other than laundry duty, but having a plan is much better than not. Lets implement it."

[Blackferne]

"Do you have a different task you'd prefer? We can swap jobs if you think I have allocated them poorly." M3PO says to Te'l.

[Reese]

Te'l looks at the droid as if he were wary of the emotionless can's intentions.

"No, no. I understand laundry service to often be an appropriate front operation. Seems so legitimate no matter what planet you are on. Dood and I will get the necessary uniforms since we have the stealth and prowess."

Te'l looks contemplative "Gosh, if we had Common Sense this just wouldn't be necessary."

[Blackferne]

"Are you sure? I'd rather have everyone happy with their assignment now, before we dispatch to the field." M3PO says.

Whoever said anything about laundry? This is clearly a getting disguises ready.
