A Critical Meeting

[Switchback]

Certainly. I've got a Destroyer Class warship in need of some significant work. Pulling a holographic projector out of his pocket, he placed it on the table and activated it. After sputtering for a second, a large holographic projection of the Nightmare displayed.

The Nightmare is a Outcast RM-2A Storta Destroyer, laid down in 815A.S. at Valletta shipyard. You can actually find some of her history on Octavarian historical sites as it was originally a Vagrant Raiders flagged warship. Tapping a button on a small keyfob, the holographic projection changed, zooming in highlighting some of the more damaged areas of the ship.

To put it simply, She's been through a nightmare. Smiling to himself, Billy continued. The Reactor is completely dead, most of the electrical conduits have overloaded and the weapons mounts are either fused, destroyed or simply missing. What's left of the internal computer systems is antiquated and generally not up to modern standards. In her death throes, the system performed a full system wipe, so we don't even have the backup combat or nav systems software. Clicking his keyfob again, and the display changed some of the red highlights to yellow.

The Junker Congress will be doing a good chunk of the more basic stuff, along with trying out some fancy new Reactor Technology I don't quite understand. Basically, anything highlighted in Yellow is their concern. However, I don't really trust the Junkers to install any sort of Combat system. Nothing personal against them, they just don't have the experience with heavy artillery. Basically what I would like is a floor to ceiling overhaul of all combat, navigation, and sensor systems onboard. Of course you'll need to work with the Junkers for any integration points but as far as I know everything outside of the Reactor subsystem is commercially available. Billy paused for a second, and pulled a small data storage module from his pocket, and slid it across the table towards the engineer.

There's a full list of schematics and scans of the current situation onboard the Nightmare. I've gotten word they have already transferred the hull to Vieques Shipyard and have begun repressurization efforts, and cutting out the old reactor. I've asked the Junkers to leave any weapons systems as is. They did request to keep any scrap from the project, but ultimately that decision will be up to you should you take this contract.

Power does not corrupt. Fear corrupts... perhaps the fear of a loss of power.
