~gently prods Brennus with a large soft sea sponge on a stick~

Wasn't there a post forthcoming?

well, rats

I hate to skip Brennus, as Berk has so much he can do; his department is obviously right in the middle of this.

That said, it's been more than a week since I posted, and I don't want the game to be stagnant. So I'm going to go ahead and post and bump things along; we can edit to account for Berk, if necessary.

Note for engineering: all systems seem to be nominal; no sabotage is evident. Recall that before we took the ambassadors aboard, we put in security protocols (force fields, guard personnel), and the ambassadors each got 24/7 escorts.

The Coronado was not as thorough in their preparations, and they had quite a few more representatives and staff to account for than we did. It's pretty easy to watch two people on a ship of this size; twenty on a larger ship could be more of a challenge.

and now, it gets interesting...

Now we really have a quandary. Drake has very clear orders, but has strong reason to believe that those orders are fatally flawed.

It's funny - when I laid out the plot for this adventure, the whole Captain's Mast subplot wasn't on my horizon whatsoever; that came about organically from some really nice role play. However, as it turns out, I couldn't have written it better had I tried.

Through the NJP, we explored why chain of command is so important, and we dealt with the zero tolerance attitude that has too accompany it. Only now... what does Drake do?

If we follow orders and attack the Kuldar, there is little real risk to the ship, seeing as how we so thoroughly outclass them. A great victory will be won... and many innocent lives will be lost. If the Kuldar truly are not behind the attack, they will rightfully see this as unforgivable aggression by the Federation, and any chance of peace in the region is over.

If we disobey, Drake risks command, career, and freedom.

And what if this is an elaborate ruse? Or is *is* a Kuldar action, just a black ops type event as opposed to the normal KDF knowing about it? What if there is a splinter group trying to sow discontent and derail the peace process?

What if this is a third party, like the Romulans or Ferengi? How does that impact things?

There's a lot to think about...

Don't worry

I'm sure PO Crane would welcome some company in the brig Captain, and Chief Cook would gladly visit him as well, to check up on him of course!

I get the feeling...

...That Crane might have a lot of company before this is all over.

Hoping to post tomorrow.

Busy weekend...

...got a post started but not yet finished. Should have it done in the next couple of hours if work continues to be as sleepy as it is, now.

Sorry

It was a bad weekend and I haven't been up to even thinking of a post. I'll try to work on something in the next few days, but no big loss as my characters are not really involved in anything crucial, yet.

Posted!

Boo Boo - If it helps, you can assume that Tochi has already contacted Flight Control and has shuttle pilots on stand by to retrieve any escape pods and/or otherwise assist in rescue efforts (could provide some fodder for medical prepping for aid and assistance if need be). Feel free to interact with NPCs (or PM me for collab) where that might be concerned.

Olan - please say we're gonna fly in Jacobs' face! PLEEEEAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSEEEEE!!!!

Loved the post, Eol.

Anyone want to interact as NPCs, I'm game.

So glad...

...it passed muster! It was mostly a reactionary post where Tochi was concerned and I wasn't sure that it was really up to snuff... but if Brom liked it, I'm a happy camper!

yep

It was fun to read, no doubt!

I'm gonna get my own post up.

Indeed

There are some very good posts going on here, so I don't know what else to add at this time.

So assume:

Chief Cook and Medical are still in prepping for any medical problems aboard this ship.

Ensign Blackmon is securing the Torpedo magazines to ensure no chance of sabotage, no matter how small a chance that might be.

If anything happens to require future action from either of them, I will try and have a response up for them.

Excuse my recent lameness!

LAME!!!

You are way too creative for me to let you get away with not posting, Boo.

Shame! Shame!
