The best deal
A large number of operators gathered at the Cybar, hoping to find out what was happening in the area.
This led to an auction and a gun deal, with a side order of personal deals going on.
Linears and Events of note
- Having stolen Militech missiles in Game #2 the hopeful operators arranged an auction of sorts.
- Bids came in from several fronts.
- Regular Fixer Anton
- Maelstrom bossman WarCrimes
- The Alchemist, a broker vouched for by Dodge
- Much to WarCrimes disgust the Operators sold to The Alchemist and he left threating consquences
- A fucking cheque???!!!
- Scars Alice has had a Bearer Bond worth significant figure in her possession but the issuing bank, Deutsche Allgemeine Distributed, won't convert it for somebody of her low creditworthiness. Seeing Henry Harcourt amongst the Operators she offered him a cut to go and 'cash the cheque'.
- Harcourt gather an escort of Operators and travelled to the nearest branch, in the midst of Maelstrom territory.
- A tense standoff occurred, given earlier events, but the Operators paid the toll and completed the transaction without drama.
- Millie’s millions
- When the Militech Patrol was wiped out in Game #2, one member 'Millie', swapped sides and joined the Operators.
- Millie had been looking for an out of her Corporate contract for some time and had a stash in the City she'd like to retrieve. She recruited a few Operators to go along.
- While there the Operators encountered The Inquisition for the first time: an evangelising quasi-religious group opposed to CyberWare in all its forms.
- Unexpectedly the Operators killed the unarmed Inquisition members and took a copy of their Holy Book 'At One With Body And Soul'.
- Arms deal
- Adam recruited several Operators to do his regular arms supply run from his supplier Jimmy Five Fingers.
- It transpired the kit was hot and a group of Militech Enforcers were looking for him.
- The Operators discovered the Enforcers were morally flexible and for a small price got away without another round of confrontation with the Corporation.
- Missile Money
- The Operators travelled to deliver the Militech hardware to The Alchemist, as agreed.
- Fulfilling on earlier his threats, WarCrimes sent a mob of Maelstrom to intercept the hardware.
- A huge gunfight ensued and sadly the Operators were overwhelmed, with Maelstrom dragging away the spoils.
- This is the stuff blood feuds are made from in the Dark Future.
