Now all we need is a post telling us that we reached the nebula and are beginning our sweep through it.<br/><br/>Does anyone need any details on the plan or what you'll be doing while we're in the nebula?<br/><br/>At the moment, apparently, Jason is the only PC aboard the Everest, while Sarah is also alone aboard the Alexander (unless Delila is with her as well), and all the other PC's are aboard the Kobras Aquairre.  The Katana, a frigate and the one surviving member of the Concordia's escort fleet, is NPC'd, although thankfully, playing escort for a Lunar Class Cruiser like the Everest is exactly what they are trained to do, so they should prove capable in that role.<br/><br/>Jason's tactical plan has the Katana taking point, and the Alexander and the Aquairre acting as flanking scouts, using their superior speed to run about at will, widening the area of our sweep tremendously.  They'll be free to move about almost at will, even to break formation and head well away from the main body of the fleet, safe in their superior speed and the knowledge of exactly where the Everest will be at any point in time, giving them a place to run to.<br/><br/>The Everest will maintain a course into the nebula in the general direction of the pirate base, but will make unpredictable course changes and wander about a bit rather than going straight in, although, of course, Cortez, Sarah and the Captain of the Katana will (alone) know where she will be as she travels.  The Everest will maintain cruising speed unless it is delayed, enabling it to make any particular point on it's course by increasing to full speed if it is delayed.<br/><br/>And that's the whole plan.  We'll be able to use the Astropaths to make changes if we need to, and what we actually find along the way may cause us to change up our tactics, but otherwise we will advance till we spot the pirate base.
