What is going to happen in your plot?
Tagal is going to bring to market a new form of his own space station; Mjolnir Station is now equipped with the weaponry of a capital ship. Which is... well a bit much to most people but in a Galaxy currently still at war and now even more uncertain? It could be something people could really buy and BiT is all about that.
What other players will be a part of this?
KillaRee
Others, maybe
Where are all the places (if more than one) that your plot will be taking place?
Telgorn Corporation Headquarters
Borstal Defense Limited Headquarters
Derelict Pirate Shipyard
Please provide a basic in-character timeline of what you expect to happen.
Weak Point;
BiT might be a big name in the business galaxy but the fact of the matter is that they are essentially building atop of work of others here. BiT need the co-operation of the Telgorn Corporation and to do that they have settled on a touch of industrial espionage. One of Telgorn's rivals in the station game, Consolidated Hulls Corporation, is attempting to blackmail Telgorn into delaying software upgrades to the Multex-Class space station by holding a structural weak point over them. BiT team enter the CHC headquarters under the pretense of doing business but must stealthily take a copy of this blackmail material so that Telgorn can patch the mistake to render the blackmail useless.
Dice.
Strike to Break;
With CHC taken care of, Telgorn has had issues with a lack of materials recently with their main source of durasteel no longer supplying them due to a worker's strike. BiT will act as intermediaries to resolve the dispute either by diplomacy or by breaking the strikers by force.
Dice.
Firing for Maximum Effect;
The biggest weapons on the ship are the hardest to secure as turbolasers and heavy laser turrets are more strictly regulated within most civilized space. BiT visit the headquarters of Borstal Defense Limited and most convince the board-appointed representative that a partnership would be beneficial. Unfortunately, the representative in this case is a rather slick salesman-type... who was rejected for a position at BiT for having been found to be both slimy and rather bad at the job itself.
Dice with a heavy starting disadvantage.
Light Infestation;
The lighter weaponry is all pretty standard stuff and BiT already has the material connections to build them but currently lacks the manufacturing base to build them. As it isn't cost effective to trade for the lower-grade weapons and tractor beam emitters, the BiT team will assault something of a rarity; a pirate shipyard. It was once a shipyard in truth but became something far less after the pirates assaulted it and took it over several years ago. Years of neglect mean that the munitions factories are one of the only parts of it that are salvagable - they just have to get rid of the infestation first.
Dice.
What do you or your character hope to achieve with this plot? What is the "end-game"?
To create a piece of tech that is an armed Multex-Class Space station through use of a plot. No such station will be created/rewarded for this plot; this plot is purely to make it and have BiT as it's manufacturer.

Do you need any involvement of canon NPCs or faction leaders to be DMed by a staff member? If so, please detail who/what and for what purpose.
No
