I agree, the second one I like best! Just for kicks in case we need a proposal, I started a write-up on the wreckage/ruin. Something we can add to the database or planet detail if we decide on this idea. Any input anyone would like to put in?

I like the third one. It more likely the ship would remain save from scavengers and the elements if it where underground.

Indeed. I can always change the write-up to suit whatever everyone thinks. That said, where it is right now places it somewhere along The Spine in a canyon, of sorts; this helps prevent it from being easily accessible and of its location being known by any save the most daring or foolhardy explorers and the No-mans, as well as helping to shelter the derelict from the harshness of Zonju V. That, and what I interpret as the impermeability of starship hulls and superstructures, especially things such as long-range colony ships. However, that is just my interpretation. *shrugs*

I like the idea of a combo of 2 and 3, along with having the old crawler. Truth is (and this is just my opinion) not only do we need a new base we need a cash flow. Maybe use the crawler as a mobile mining rig then smuggle the resources to a buyer off world ?

True...hmm. With access to the Underground, we could make use of Skollium. I imagine even though its a relatively new find on Zonju, there has to be plenty under The Spine, underdark style. Also brings in the threat of underground beasties causing all sorts of trouble. There probably can be both, I imagine the ship would be large enough to have also crashed through the ceiling of the underground caverns back when The Spine and deserts were young and not as sand-filled. Heck, maybe we could write-up something for some folks to discover to help shed some light on Zonju's creatures, like a captain's log, a journal, or some kind of archaic gene-lab on board.

All ze plots... *drools*

I'm not a member of this faction (yet? We'll see. XD ) but I wanted to chime in and say I really love the idea of a base at a crashed starship. XD

Also the use of Skollium - while it can be used to create crudax, an illicit drug, which the Waste Rangers no doubt would be against, it could PROBABLY also be used to create medicine. Hint hint. Which could be an income. XD

Just my 2 cents. Livgardist away!

The underground pic could be the other half of the ship maybe? lol

Yes, this path seems a little more..well...legal for the Waste Rangrrs to be able to use. haha wouldn't want to increase the scum levels on Zonju

You should operate from a crashed Star Destroyer

But what would a Star Destroyer be doing on Zonju? Awesome idea about the crashed ship for a base, however. I like it a lot!

I had seen that photo, and I like it too, for sure! The ship can be anything; the only reason I didn't suggest it is for the same question posed above. Also, Star Destroyers being relatively newish tech, I imagine there wouldn't be too many lost legends on why or where one would crash XD

I'm sure you could make up a reason. Maybe a remnant from the Galactic Civil War? Retcon a "Battle of Zonju V" for the GA and Imps? Or maybe a star destroyer on a special mission. XD

Could also be another Imperial capitol ship of an older model.

I suppose they do use standard templates XD even the Old Republic ships followed the same style. *shrugs* Star Destroyers are cooler than any old colony ship anyway...and have more guns.

I agree, the more I talk on it, the more I want it. Let's talk names guys. In my mind, this place is treated like a forbidden zone by the No-mans and tribals for one reason or another; the fact that its infested with Grays and who knows what else, or for some other reason. I figure something suitably eerie or foreboding, maybe like a folk legend of some kind. Nothing like Atlantis or the City of Gold, but something mysterious, like the name itself is a warning. What are y'alls thoughts?

Recorded for future reference.

The Black Ark? Veti's Tomb (hooray for latin!)? Oh, with that one, maybe the No-mans and tribals call it Vet'eetum and the normal folk call it something else.
