Hey.
How's it going? Crashed into a trade lane yet? You better not, though. I'm in need of help with something that should lie within AFC's specialties.
Long story short, I need a good engine for an old Anaconda.
Good to hear from you again, Flora.
What your asking could be in the realm of possibilities, though I'd need to know a bit more info about this "Anaconda" model ship before would start to specify an engine replacement for it. Do you know what it ran before and what the specs were for it?
Additionally, what are you expecting from us?
I'd also be interested in the specs for the ship itself and what it can handle.

All of this will be vague, but I simply don't have many details at my disposal just yet.
The ship used to run a military-grade PTE engine, similar to what you can find on Crown's Paladins or Templars. The ship itself is in rough shape. And by that I mean a really rough shape. I managed to get the Corsairs help me to fix that, though. The ship is being repaired on Tripoli as we speak. I can't say anything specific untill they're done with it, but I bet you know what kind of miracles they are able to work out.
As to what exactly do I want... Well, I need an engine. Something efficient, reasonably easy to maintain and better than what I can find on open market. Basing it on a PTE design would be best as it'll involve the least amount of messing with the engine mount.

The Corsairs known to be one of the best engineers around Sirius, though they are more known for specializing in power output and damage of their guns. I am not sayin' they are not good, since hell they can make an engine perform extremely well in their conditions in space, but perhaps this chart will explain to you more what I have in mind:
As you can see, anything is possible, though at a cost. In the literal sense, money will cost to have more elements incorporated for the engine that you imagine. The diagram shows that if you want to have more of these three as well then the power needed, marked in yellow, will also rise. This doesn't include as well time, though you can understand this works on the same principle. You understand, right?
Furthermore, the PTE engine relies on Fusion in it's operation and specializes in efficiency and Durability, meaning in this case maintenance. You have a few options here to choose from but as a bench mark, you can see what you are asking for in the diagram already. If you want something better then we can work on increasing the efficiency, durability, change the engine type to increase performance, OR we can try to add more power in the thing. That would involve miracle work. Luckily for you, this Archangel over here knows a thing or two.
Hope this sheds some light on a few things. Let me know what you decide on.
Don't take too long, though. I already know you girls take too long on deciding where to go for lunch.

I'd like a PTE based engine with more verve, please. The power supply will be adequate, I can assure you of that. As for money... Well, let's just say i've earned a bit here and there. I can spare some on a more fancy design.
Though... Are you able to visit Tripoli? I can't really bring the ship to Blackport as the repairs are still incomplete.
Should be good, babe.
I'll see you on my next run down there soon. While I am arriving, a status update on the ship would be much appreciated so that I can plan out what I will be looking for and doing ahead of time.
Ah, and also get me some Rum for when I'll be working on your ride. A nice 6 pack will do.
Cheers, FROM: SUNNY

The ship suffered some heavy damage from weapon fire, tachyons mostly. The outer hull is dotted with breaches from combat. I guess that a year long drift through an asteroid field contributed to it too. The belly of the ship was massacred by a nuke, with the engine and left fin basically gone. The structure of the ship is shaky at best, and it's what the Cretan engineers are working on right now. The powercore is not working, the computer is barely alive as well. Surprisingly enough, Salvations mounted on the right side of the hull and most manouvering thrusters there are fine.
As for the six-pack, getting one shouldn't be too hard around here.
