Wanted: Transport ship with crew
A local mining firm has run into trouble with one of it's transports. The
ship is down for repairs, and the company can not afford to pay for them.
You are required to travel to an automated mining colony on a nearby
planet, and obtain the processed ore. Once returned to them, they will
then be able to sell it and pay for the repairs to their ship, putting them
back in business.
All information is provided, and the security password is given to you.
Game Master's Notes:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
A) All is as stated.
B) All is as stated. Upon completion, the company will be so happy that
they will pay you a 50% bonus, and offer you continued work at the same
job.
C) All is as stated, but they have given you an incorrect security
password. You must find a way to obtain the ore despite the robots
attempts to keep it.
D) The password is correct, but it has been hacked. The people hiring you
are not the legal owners of this mining colony, and you are stealing the
ore. There is a possibility that security cameras may record your
identification.
E) As in (D), but the password is incorrect.
F) A fault in the system has caused all the robots to shut down. No ore
has been processed. If you fix the problem and report back to the owners,
they will be happy and pay you 40% of your original intended pay.
G) A fault in the system has caused all the robots to shut down. No ore
has been processed. If you fix the problem and report back to the owners,
they will be bankrupt and unable to pay you anything.
H) All is as stated, but the mining claim has been raided. There is no ore
available for pickup. There is a 50% chance that upon reporting this, they
will claim YOU stole the ore and have you arrested. They will then make an
insurance claim for the stolen ore, and pay off the repairs to their ship.
I) As in (H), but the entire mining colony has been stolen, robots,
equipment and all. If they blame you, your ship will be siezed by the
insurance company.
