I would like to announce an event plan for next weekend, Sat Oct 27 at 12:00pm CST (US) or GMT -5
There will be a trade convoy forming at Planet Cambridge, which will fly VIP's to Planet Honshu. Exact route will be given at the appropriate time. Each trade ship involved will be required to carry a 1 million dollar credit card.
I will pay a fair price for any escort provided by any mercenaries in the area. This price will be based on ship class and the amount of ships they will be escorting. Any traders involved are asked (but not required) to help with the cost of escort.
Furthermore, I am open to any additional idea's and / or suggestions for this event to make it more fun. =)
The story so far....
Cambridge Research Station is well known for its research on pharmaceuticals. Recently, several key scientist have made a breakthrough in medicine that uses sythetic Marijuana. Needless to say, that there is a large controversy brewing in Bretonian space. A large group of scientist has decided to move its efforts elsewhere. The lead scientist and his team, who consist of a large part of the project, have been given temporary diplomatic immunity by Honshu's governor, a well known supporter of Marijuana legalization. Up to this point, Neither the Bretionian or Kusari Governments have announced an offical Standpoint on the situation.
The Lead Scient of the project, Dr. Tommy Chong (A kusari Native) has publicly expressed his disgust with the Bretonian Government, who which has in turn ruined him in the public eye of Bretonia. Chong's veiws on the legalization of marijuana, and its Medicinal purposes are highly controvercial. Chongs reputation was further tarnished when rumors surfaced that he was affiliated with several large drug trafficing organizations.
After the news of his deal with the Kusari Govenor, there are talks that Chong will be charged with treason. This has not been confirmed. He has booked passage on the Mercenary Frigate, Ciro, and has extended the offer to the remainder of his research team to come with him. How many will be there? He does not know.... The Ciro is due to arrive in 1 week. Dr. Chong has gone into hiding, and will meet with the Ciro at the set date and place. Rumors are that thousands of Dr.Chongs reasearchers and supporters will come with him in a Mass defection from Cambridge and Bretonia.
That is all that is known at this point. The Trade Ship Renius, has agreed to hold the contract. The VIP refugee's will be delivered at all cost. Dr.Tommy chong will be aboard the Renius, and his survival it the utmost importance. The Ciro has sent out the call to all of his Mercenary brothers, to protect him at all cost. Renius calls all traders as well, the reasearchers will pay almost 5k up front for passage and an additional 4-5k will be paid upon arrival to honshu.
Payments are rumored to be at 1 million starting out. Will the Bretonian's interfere? Or the KNF? What of the pirates along the route? The story will be told soon.
NOTE: This event is simply FOR FUN, contact me Via trade ship Renius in game or PM me here if you have any questions.
