Re: Men Of Good Conscience OOC
Anyone has anything to add to the sabotage subplot or do we proceed with the next part; dealing with the galactic barrier?

Re: Men Of Good Conscience OOC
I added a reply to engineer in sheep's clothing. I was thinking one last item maybe in the Ops hologram's subroutine...I'm not great with Treknobabble but maybe something that would have led the cadets to think they were under attack or that links back to the implanting of the Omega detection...

What is expected of us for the ongoing story on the starbase? I do not want to push the story in a different direction.

Good addition Jureth.
The starbase events are just background for us. I gave it for the benefit of Redding if he wants and can contribute from this end with Gould. For us, they should only really come to play when we get in contact with Starfleet again. So not relevant atm.

Damn it, I keep opening up to edit and staring at it for about 5 minuets then logging off.
I just don't FEEL it like I used to.
I know what I want to say I just can't seem to start it.
I'll keep trying.

Perhaps you could start with a PM to Kheren about some ideas you have or what you are trying to convey. Together you could most likely work out a submission.

Re: Men Of Good Conscience OOC
Always at your disposal to help you Redding, up to and including posting what you would write (i.e. in a .doc file)
And I'll make sure you get full RP credit for it

Feel free to bounce an idea or two off of us. We can get the story going and maybe you will find it easier to interject into a story already playing out versus starting your own narrative.

Re: Men Of Good Conscience OOC
Related to the recent events on the bridge, I am a bit confused too.
The Andorian was on the bridge during the verbal exchanges... whether it was real or a red herring of sorts. Did he not hear these?
''Hostile vessel; we will not tolerate a second aggression. If you approach or continue scanning us, this time we will destroy you. This your last warning.''
''Hostile vessel; you speak of no harm and you activate war systems. Your present actions are in conflict with your words but not with your past actions. You have been warned. If you enter firing zone, you will be destroyed.''
Weren't these message received from the adversary?
Both times the Andorian states afterwards that there has been no response...
Unless there are Talosian-like entities creating mental illusions to specific individuals or this was a pre-recorded message from the saboteurs; but that he would hear too if these were being broadcast on the bridge, unless something is preventing his reception.
Perhaps a bit of clarity or direction may be in order to steer things back on course if we have veered off at some point or the Captain could question the Andorian IC about him not hearing these warnings. Maybe there is another explanation or other options... but as noted, at this point I do not know what I am missing or misunderstanding.

Re: Men Of Good Conscience OOC
Jeff, I read that first one ( "we will not tolerate...") as Captain Jureth and the second one ( you speak of no harm...")from the aliens.
So, yeah, if they're both from the alien vessel then I got lost in it as well. * shrugs *
