Have to admit, although enjoyable, I don't like this bit.
Tracks very well actually mercanaries are a very well known job in star wars and this is someone that wants revenge on the pirates that did this to them
Very much a good thing for him if think. With the galaxy about to shatter into HRE on crack having the bankers invested physically in your sector means a lot. Espescialy since they will have a few years to build up their infrastructure and investments and thus be very unwilling to give them up and run when the chips fall post DS2
Not disputing the mercs thing, just that it went from powerless slave -> wanting to be a merc with no in-between that grinds my gear.
Is it really that big a shock they would want revenge asap? And being a merc means they get paid for the privilege too. Its a win win
It's not the reasoning, it's the disconnection with the thought process I have issues with. There's no bridge between the powerless narration she was in to suddenly finding out she was free to wanting a gun literally a spacing after.
Yeah, this is going to end up in disaster.
Congratulations, hope they taste delicious
yeah honestly not my best work. the idea was to show her anger bubbling up more slowly, for her to have been someone who's held this anger in for years and is now finally being given the chance to let it out on those she hates. But at the same time I wanted to showcase that fear that would inevitably set within the hearts of those enslaved for such a long time, and ended up focusing on that too much, so her goal at the end feels out of place.
Personally I would have shown her at her new farm week or month later realizing that she is in fact free to choose her own future and wanting to pivot into pirate hunting.
I agree. The oversector, or at least the local sector, is shaping up to be its own Empire remnant. Then again, it could always become its own mini-polity. There's no real need for the MC to keep using the Imperial system at that point.
I don't know how but somehow this is gonna come back to him getting promoted again, he's almost gonna take over the outer rim if nor in total than a large section, then hes gonna make it the most advanced simply because he has a semi open policy that doesn't promote slavery and is stable with most if not all fracture points properly fixed or with decent patches that can be properly fixed in the coming years.
To be fair I don't think she is going to become a Merc immediately. See below.
The mercenary company path probably isn't going to be open to her since she has no experience, so spending a couple years in Auxiliaries before going to mercenary work it the best way she can go.
Looks like the pirates are trying to copy success. They have things like loadlifter droids, so it shouldn't be too hard to widen the chest and fit a sentient in there. Still is scrap quality though.
Wow, that is cheap. I mean not for an individual, but for hundreds of elite warriors in super armor that is peanuts. Raising this amount of warriors completely on the sector budget would cost a lot more.
Neat the Guild has its own fighter. Well not directly owned by the Guild, but I imagine so many are going to purchased by them it is going to be associated with them.
"We found it difficult to believe an eleven year old would be capable of committing conspiracy against the Empire. You have to be at least Star Wars adolescent protagonist age for that."
Good to see the local power groups see Las as "one of them". A lot of Outer Rim Imperial leaders don't hit that stage.
Las doing his best to hold up the Imperial Credit in the entire region. When everything goes down the toilet, people are going to be looking to him. If only because he is the one with the money.
Looks like the Banking Clans get to bring their Iotran friends back. I am sure they will appreciate their long time customers being back on the security market as an employer.
The speed of money, it is reaching hyperdrive speeds!
Yes complain at processing a million slaves in a month effectively and with due process. That number is still insane even on a sector wide level.
At least Las has his bevy of private and "non-Imperial" military forces to pick up the slack.
