MOTHERSHIP POLL SUBMISSIONS

DISCUSSION POST

UPDATE: The poll will go up on 23 September due to scheduling concerns.
Submissions are due by 23:59 UTC 22 September.


Hello, futurgooglies!

Because the objectives in our current mission can be completed in a number of ways, we will be holding a poll on 23 September to decide the ultimate game canon fate of the Mothership and the Taraxa. As the Mother has not yet been found, we will not be accepting submissions regarding her fate. However, you are free to submit any other ideas regarding this mission and we will do our best to include them.

The purpose of this post is to collect poll options, submitted by you, the players! These don't have to be IC suggestions, but they should be open to the game at large. However, the poll will be an IC vote and require IC participation. You are more than welcome to discuss your characters' participation in these plans; all we ask is that they are inclusive of all players and characters who wish to participate.

Feel free to ask us any questions in the subthread below! We will avoid spoiling the outcome, but can clarify minor points that have not been addressed already.

Any questions about the mission itself rather than idea submissions can be directed to the dossier, and our first mission log is up!

Mothership/Zymandis Leadership??

You know what's always fun?

Staging a rebellion. Get enough Zymandis agents on your side with the lucrative promise of "not fucking destroying all life in the universe for a new one you won't even be a part of" and you can take over from the inside, baby.

Temporarily disable ship (either via hacking database, overloading generators, or otherwise stopping it without ruining it forever), commandeer said ship, and immobilize Zymandis crew (as much is possible, fighting back against dissenters if necessary). Question whatever crew is left after the ship is overtaken to see who is willing to defect to the ALASTAIR side, who has information, and who will need to remain imprisoned.

Keep the ship, keep the prisoners! Bring it and their version of timeline.exe back to Oska for study.

You know what would help with immobilizing the crew?

Poisoning the water supply with optimism.

Track down the leader to kill/detain (depending on circumstances); liberate the Ophiel AI; evacuate Zymandis agents that wish to defect; blow up the rest of the ship.

if it's okay to submit more than one for the same thing....??

Sabotage energy generators, causing ship to be dead in the water and necessitating an abandon ship.
