Hauron had undertaken some impressive campaigns, attempted ludicrous feats but this was going to definitely be one to remember. The best and perhaps most ironic part about this was that history would not know it was the mandalorian's plan. Maybe someday eventually historians would be able to piece together the events that would transpire on the Errant Venture but for the present the greater galaxy would be ignorant.
The interstellar casino was a heavily modified Imperial II class star destroyer and was home to thousands of people. It had cantinas, shops, amusement parks and even brothels. The ships previous military grade weaponry had long ago been sold and made viable as a civilian craft in civilized space.
As a star destroyer sized vessel the Errant Venture still required expertise of engineers and required certain safety standards were met. That was why Hauron knew after a few days of falsifying reports of abnormal radiation levels around the ship that an inspection would be requested to both make certain nobody was in danger and the business of the casino was not threatened.
The false emergency was just step one out of eight. The disciplined Forge Master was not serving in the typical over flag officer of Rancor Squadron. His company of warriors were playing a factor in the man's plan today but he was operating as Black Hand with the freelancer Sapphire. He was however, wearing a different outfit than his normal "second skin" or beskar'gam. Instead the Solus clan member was clad in a flight suit meant to deal with environmental hazards like that of a starship's reactor.
"Is this what you expected?" He was referring to when she had agreed to wear something for him. "Not my typical style but it will get us through most of the security." He came equipped with an extra computer spike to slice into any terminals they inevitably came across. A pair of Blurrg blast pistols were available for the two of them to take. The pistols' designs and composition allowed them to be snuck past scans and searches more easily than others, not that they would end up needing them if everything went according to plan. There were also shock boxing gloves with limiters removed, fusion cutters, wrenches and other tools that could serve useful purposes while not attracting unwanted attention.
Between the two thieves was holoprojection of an Imperial II class star destroyer. It was the latest map they had of the ship's interior but it was not guaranteed to be completely accurate. There were many adjustments that could be made to a ship that was essentially a flying city.
"We're going in as maintenance technicians. I'll have distractions kick off elsewhere to help draw attention away at key points during the plan." Volunteers and contractors with compartmentalized intelligence were paid handsomely to wait for the right signal. They only had to make scenes and occupy the resources of the Errant Venture while other pieces moved into place.
"Once you and I are in position we'll direct the ship to begin evacuating. Non-essential personnel frirst, then eventually the crew too. You and I will use an encrypted short range commlinks only. We don't want them accidentally picking up on what we're doing." His flight suit covered face looked at the reflective light of the holoprojector while the blue tunnel of hyperspace outside sped by.
He turned to center on his partner in this mission. "How are you doing, Sapphire?" They had some time before they dropped out of hyperspace. The ministry class shuttle they were riding in was outfitted with an aftermarket class 5 hyperdrive and navicomputer. The old ship was nothing special but it would get them from point A to point B. It would also serve as an extra life boat for those onboard the mobile casino.
The two of them had worked well together on Courscant, making a lot of money and doing a flawless job in Hauron's opinion. The Mandalorian hoped this next job would go just as smoothly. A single star destroyer was worth 150,000,000 credits while the vaults of credits and other currency inside the Errant Venture held even more.
