This was already done as I'm sure everyone by now knows, but @Arclight suggested I post this for record keeping reasons. So here we are. I'm also sorry for not having subbed it as a plot before hand. I'm still not used to this system and just did what I've always done which was to check to see if we could actually hit Kuat then just go for it.

I'm old and out of touch with the ways of the youngsters. Forgive me.

  • What is going to happen in your plot?
    A small team of Solus members are going to seriously damage the Kuat Drive Yards by detonating an under-construction ship in the dry docks.​
  • What other players will be a part of this?
    @Sreeya as Raz and @Rimrald as Wyatt​
  • Where are all the places (if more than one) that your plot will be taking place?
    The entire plot will take place on the Kuat Drive Yards primary complex, with the mandos having smuggled themselves in as dock workers, maintenance staff and a health inspector.​
  • Please provide a basic in-character timeline of what you expect to happen.
    Two threads.

    Thread One http://www.thestarwarsrp.com/forum/index.php?threads/the-lady-jolene.85426/
    Land in the orbital station and commence the operation. Main goals are to avoid detection and acquire the resources necessary to access the restricted Research and Development levels. Protecting their astromech droid is critical. If he dies or gets disabled the whole operation goes tits up.

    Thread Two http://www.thestarwarsrp.com/forum/index.php?threads/i-feel-the-weight.85704/
    This is the execution and extraction thread. Having reached the R&D department, their astromech is to hook into the networks of the drive yards and issue commands to the droid brains of the target ship in the dry docks. The commands are to hold for a signal, then ignite engines, align to a point, start moving, then enter hyperspace to destroy the orbital dry docks and facilities with the impact of the ship being immediately returned to realspace due to being so far in Kuat's gravity well. A full round of posts across the threads framing a turn as the droid issuing commands is required for this to be true.

    The next thing is for the infiltration team to beg, borrow or steal a ship and get the hell out. During the extraction, the droid is left in the R&D facilities and again, if he is taken out the mission is bust. A 30min timer is set for the extraction. If they are discovered and opposed that will eat into the time, forcing them to choose the success of the mission by waiting out the timer and ending up either captured or dead or forfeiting the mission by cancelling the timer and fighting their way out.

    [*] What do you or your character hope to achieve with this plot? What is the "end-game"?
    The end game is the destruction of the Kuat Drive Yards and the acquisition of plans for a ship.​

    [*] 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, all threads are open/pvp with the expectation of player resistance. Token NPC resistance will be written in as needed as well as ways for people to discover that they are active in the area.

So, to confirm, this plot is Completed right?

If it is then you don't need to post it here - you post it in the Completed Plots Section using the template found HERE for it :D

But yeah, you've already done it so it's cool - just gotta do it as a Completed plot and you get extra credits for it :P
