Turn 12 - House Aramin

Previous turn: Turn 11

House Actions

  • Shipping: The StarFar Reigspress picks up both units of the Canterina Sampler Pack (collectively containing Food, Savage Corn, Kelp, Hyperidot, Ndoggahyde, Energy Weapons, Frozen Gas, SAVAGE CORN 3D!, Superconductive Crystal Cryptography Circuits, Squidduplicators, Flame Jewels and Metal), 1 unit of Superconductive Crystal Cryptography Circuits, 1 unit of SAVAGE CORN 3D!, 1 unit of Flame Jewels and 1 unit of Starfarer, then sets off for the Core. The Reiglight Revenge returns to Elvis. Reig and the other polo players hitch a ride to the Core on the Titanicus.
  • Fighting: [none]
  • Exploration: The StarLight Survey Squad surveys hexes I7 and H6.
  • Production: We produce 2 units of Unsorted Crystals from the Donbique Rule Crystal Farm in L10. We produce 1 unit of Metals from the Alshu Cup mine in N11. We produce 2 unit of Unsorted Crystals from the Starfarer Crystal Mega-Garden And Wilderness Preserve in P12. We produce 1 unit of Food from the Bloos Wade Juice plant in K11. The Clampet Clan produces 1 unit of Unsorted Crystals (which they give to us as a loan payment).
  • Processing: We process 1 unit of Unsorted Crystals, 1 unit of Metal and 1 unit of Hyperidot into 1 unit of Warp Manifolds (a rank-3 refined commodity). We process 1 unit of Unsorted Crystals, 1 unit of Food and 1 unit of Industrial Kelp into 1 unit of Kookie Krysp (a rank-3 refined commodity). We process 1 unit of Unsorted Crystals, 1 unit of Metal and 1 unit of Chemicals into 1 unit of Power Cells (a rank-3 refined commodity).
  • Research: The Farlight Institute continues researching. The Secret Advanced Physics Laboratory begins researching Gwyne's Nefarious Plan.
  • Building: We repay our Krazybuys loans for 12Mc.
  • Landing: The Reiglight Revenge arrives home at Elvis. The StarFar Reigspress drops the completed sampler off at Canterina and Rick personally delivers a message describing the contents and explaining that we were able to send not just the six commdities they requested, not even the eight that they'd hoped for, but twelve different colonial commodities. It then takes the rest of its cargo to Topni and flies Rick to MQaiaa.
  • Trading: We sell 1 unit of Superconductive Crystal Cryptography Circuits, 1 unit of SAVAGE CORN 3D! and 1 unit of Flame Jewels to Topni for 19Mc. We also collect 3Mc in revenue from the League of Champions, plus another 1Mc for taking third place. Then we distribute 1Mc to each of House Prime, House Intrepid, House Advantage and House Raix for their contributions to the Canterina Samplers.
  • Politics: We pay 15Mc in taxes. Reig attends the Emperor's party, and Rick pokes his nose around on MQaiaa.

Character Actions

  • Jude Farlight: Project Secret Agent Bird: GO! Birds: "CHIRP CHIRP CHIRP PEEP PEEP PEEP CHIRP PEEP" Iavonians: "SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP" (Does the thing with bugging the Iavonians using binary birds and a fate point.)
  • Rick Starfarer: Rick Investigates the reports of sabotage on MQaiaa to find proof that Grazene's absorption of their world was predicated on an act of war, making the entire affair illegal and subject to severe Imperial retribution. It is likely that some aspect of this will remind him of the time in issue #324 of True Space Stories when Lance Trooper used his detective skills to track down a band of weasel poppy smugglers (thus inspiring him to spend a fate point to increase his own skill).
  • Reig: Reig hitches a ride to the Core on Intrepid's ship. There, he attends the Emperor's party.

Results

Items are produced, processed, shipped, and sold. Research is conducted.

The sampler packs are delivered to Canterina, who are delighted to receive them and promise, given how well their other conditions were satisfied, to vote for the bill with open arms.

The Starlight Survey squad stumble into trouble in their explorations: first they injure themselves as they inadvertently discover an ancient minefield in I7, and then rouse long-dormant droid soldiers from their bunkers in H6, though they do at least discover a small patch of crystal-producing vines in H6.

With Canterina's votes, the tax-reduction bill passes, and Aramin pays their 15 mega-credits in taxes (as well as paying back their loans and sending some money to the other Houses).

Jude sets up his spy network. Reig goes to the Emperor's party and has Adventures. Rick goes to MQaiaa and assists in the investigation (and then on returning home, has more Adventures).
