Getting to First Base

So we need a nice solid rebel base, apart from the standard shadowports. Ideally we get a bunch of safehouses going...etc, whatever.

Any suggested worlds? Maybe between OP and Fringe? Near the One Sith? Between OP and ACA? Near ACA/the Mara/Tion/Black Sun? Thoughts?

Well Fenessa is between op and fringe

Interesting thought - I hadn't realized your headquarters was right there by the Fringe border, right in the Neutral Zone. Since this base may draw attention/get attacked at some point in the (hopefully far) future, though, not sure if you want to potentially make your headquarters world a target.

Hmm. Let me ponder this...

I think I've some ideas.

We'll most of HK's worlds are either near or in Fringe space so I figure the closer to the main weapon supply the better

Interesting. Let's hope they don't notice lol. I'd be down to help set you up some factories in safer territory.

I've been meaning to set up some factories inside the core of Protectorate territory, but the thread I had with Ayden fell through.

Good to know. If you want to work on that, we can throw in a few posts for sure.

As for base worlds, any thoughts?

Lets hear what [member="Chloe Blake"] has to say first.

Jorus, I've also had the idea of shipping weapons as well as vehicles to planets not yet taken but under threat of being taken, I have a idea for a MBT that is based heavily of the Skocha-class design, but not so heavily that its plagiarism.

Let's separate those ideas. At this stage I'm not sure we need main battle tanks, though some kind of man-portable anti-vehicle weapon would be amazing.

This may be crazy but Erida is an isolated world surrounded by an asteroid field. The planet may not be great but a station in the asteroid field may work. Real close to an enemy territory.

 

[Jorus Merrill]

[member="Vaudin Miir"]

That makes a ton of sense. Jorus has run into plenty of uber-uncharted systems near there, it's right near Republic borders but still neutral, decent accessibility, very secret, close enough to Hekler'Kok for gun supply but far enough that it doesn't bring down the Fringe on Corek's factories -- yeah, Erida in the asteroid belt sounds solid.

 

[Jorus Merrill]

Thread's up. Just bring in whatever components or things you could reasonably come up with, and let's put this together.

Would it be alright if I simply showed up in this thread and presumed acceptance/recruitment already happened, or would everyone prefer a recruit thread first? I'm good either way

 

[Jorus Merrill]

That's perfectly fine. Welcome aboard.

Hmm, well for anti-tank weapons that are man-portable, there are two ways you can go: the direct ambush weapon and the indirect ambush weapon. The direct ambush weapon would be something like a RPG or missile launcher. An indirect would be something like a landmine.

 

[Jorus Merrill]

[member="Noah Corek"]

Cool - what are our options in those categories?

 

[Noah Corek]

[member="Jorus Merrill"]
Well with the direct ambush weapon like a rocket launcher you can make sure that the weapon destroy the vehicle, though it does make the user extremely at risk. On the other hand the indirect ambush weapon can be put in place and sit there for days before it destroys a vehicle, though we can't be one hundred percent certain that it destroys a enemy vehicle and not a civilian one.

So in terms of available tech, what's out there or could be whipped up quickly?
