Hold the Line - Five Parsecs from Home Solo Campaign - Turn 1 Notes
Notes from the Campaign Turn and Skirmish, lightly edited.
New World - Etera
Requires a license, paid to the Independent Guild of Mercenaries, to undertake patron jobs. Costs 1d6 = 3 credits. Captain Vinon will pay. (Now 5 credits).
World Traits - Crystals - the battlefield will be filled with large crystals.
Upkeep - 1 credit for a crew of 6. Ship debt is 22 +1 in interest. I’ll pay one credit to keep it at 22 credits. The crew only has 3 credits left.
Crew Tasks - Vinon and Henna will look for a Patron. They need work to keep the ship running. 1d6+2, 8. I found a patron who can offer me a job.
Sone, Ukan, and Txewi will train and gain 1 xp each.
Pair the bot will explore. Pair picks a fight, or more likely someone picks a fight with him. We gain a rival. I’ll say a crew of the Space Dogs found him and they almost came to blows in the street.
Determine Job Offer - The patron will be the Independent Guild of Mercenaries, which is a private organisation. Danger pay is 1 credit. The time frame is This or the next campaign turn. No Benefits, hazards, or Conditions.
