You guys are on coruscant, with a pretty serious decision to make. Go!

So, do we or don't we throw Steven in the airlock? I say yea.

[Y'Lemon makes lots of protests, but then says he will be going out for some time and is definitely not going to be checking up on the airlock any time soon]
'Well, folks, it seems that we have a choice. I don't know if going back to the Haydon 3 [? - the planet with the prison] will make any difference at all but I'd certainly like to find Durren.
'I do, however, understand that you all have a business to run, and The Alliance have made it fairly clear you would be doing this pro bono'

"Pro bono?"
Jarakel looks confused, but turns to Raffie and Lu-tsen and says,
"Durren a good man. We should help."
He turns back to Y'lemon.
"How could we help? Imperial prison has many guards. Get more help from Rogue Squadron? Darklighter might find someone to help."
[have the Rogues buggered off yet or could we talk to them some more?]

[Buggered off, but you could probably get in touch with Nawara Ven. He's their XO, is a Twi'lek and doesn't fly combat missions.]

'The Rogue's have left, but I'm under the impression that any help they give us would have to be small-scale, and strictly under the radar. Nawara could probably get us any equpment we need for free but they couldn't offer us any ships, for instance. Perhaps if we get more information we could elicit their help.
'I don't know that we could do anything with the prison, but Gavin suggested that we land some way away from the prison and do some recon. Once there, it might be actually quite easy to travel along the ground towards the prison. If we can confirm who's there, we might have a shot at bringing in some large scale help.
'Even Borsk Fey'lya wuld have trouble getting a mission to rescue a senator turned down.'

Jarakel nods and looks to the other crew members.

'Sounds like sense to me. What do you think, captain?'

Raffie has been quietly listening to the others with a calculating look on his face.
"I think the Ryllian for pro bono is 'delayed payment', Lu. The more people owe us favours the better. Especially if those people are the New Republic. Besides anything else, the Empire just got in the way of a serious financial opportunity for us. If we can tip the political balance to get them out of the system things might open up again. And I suppose Durren's an ok guy. Siaz, you think you can get us to the surface without being spotted? If we could do that then a night approach scout around shouldn't be beyond us."
OOC- does Raffie know whether or not the empire have any idea who he is and about his gun-running during the rebellion? Not that they'd be friendly toward space-pirate-aliens anyway, but it would be nice to know if we're on their 'kill painfully' list.

[You're not currently on there most wanted list, they probably don't know about your rebellion leanings. But you'd certainly be on their database of dubious fringe types.] Siaz: Heh-heh. Not sure Raffie. Like I said, gonna be tough and that's with the ships that were there on our flyby. Can't say how much they will have garrisoned it. There's always a way though. We could always try and pull off another Kardovski landing. Worked pretty good on the moon. But it's risky to use the same trick twice.

'Not another Kardovski! How many ships d'ya think we have? No, I want to get round the far side of the planet from the prison. Hopefully they won't be bothering to keep much of an eye out round there. Mebbe we can use the moon for cover on the way in, then hug ground level til we get where we want to be.'
Raffie takes Siaz inside to start looking at charts to plan a route, and alternatives, in case of unexpected Imperial space traffic.

Y'Lemon nods i nagreement with Raffie's point.
'I have some contacts of my own, quite aside from Nawara. Between those and Nawara I suspect we should be able to get you any more equipment that you think may prove necessary. Don't be worried about what you ask for: I don't think anyone around here is going to question your definition of 'necessary', if you know what I mean?'

OOC- ok guys, what might we need for a prison raid, or just in general? I'm thinking some sort of portable scanning/night vision system, maybe some light armour? Explosives? Does anyone have points in demolitions or similar? Electronic jamming devices to stop them calling in reinforcements and trapping us like rats in a drainpipe? Codebreaking/hacking devices to deal with electronic door locks, etc? Might this also be a good time to upgrade a few of the Sun's systems including the pilot's gun? What else? Give me ideas, people!
