Log #6

We have some good news. Thanks to mother's help we are now able to triangulate the position of the jumps of the Schiller with an accuracy of 78%. For now, it should be good enough. Currently, we try to find out if the ship has an installed jumpdrive or if the assumptions of our mother are correct. The only issue with that is that we can't really figure that out until we send some personnel in. The problem with that is the obvious risk with it involved. And we don't want to use any of our slaves. For the obvious reason, we don't want to even think about the possibility of them gaining control over any part of the ship systems.

The other thing that we would like to point out is the lack of efficiency if we first try to figure it out and then find a solution. It would obviously be the most cost-effective and precise way but on the other hand, it would take a lot more time. This is why we propose to create solutions beforehand and take them aboard with the first team that will analyze the situation aboard the ship. Let us clarify.

Solution A:
There is currently a Jumpdrive device of unknown kind installed aboard the schiller. The said drive is heavily malfunctioning. Powering down all systems attached to it and taking it off the grid would be the first steps as it would be unknown at the time if the drive would survive any more jumps. We would also have to repair the breached reactor or completely swap it for a nomad Powercell to generate enough power to bring this ship to a shipyard. Secondary steps would be to dismantle the landing ships to temporarily repair the breached hull parts until the ship can be safely moored at a shipyard.

Materials required: Landingships, Crew, Engineers, Hull panels, Nuclear Devices, Nomad Powercell

Solution B:
There is currently no Jumpdrive device installed and the ship itself is caught in the anomaly that it disappeared with supposedly. In that case, we would have to find a way to catalyze the anomaly to either stop it from intervening with the ship or to even control it we think that this could be achieved through a catalyst from one of the elders. We would also have to repair the breached hull and the reactor with this solution so the materials only vary a bit.

Materials required: Landingships, Crew, Engineers, Hull panels, Nuclear Devices, Nomad Powercell, Catalyst

Solution C:
None of the other solutions work and the ship remains stuck with said anomaly or damaged jumpdrive. In that case, we would have to request help from the elders. We would also most likely have to abandon the ship and let it continue its course and wait till it either stops by itself or see if it destroys itself in the process.

Materials required: Landingships, Crew, Engineers

We think if we are sufficiently prepared we should be able to tame whatever is going on in there. We will contact the elders to request mission approval and start preparation. We will also have to ask mother if she is able to bring us a catalyst if not we have to find another solution.
