The Cube By Joseph Mohr & Trey Causey's Strange Stars - Stars Without Number & Cities Without Number Session Report Part II

The player's PC's were dealing with the Nicodemous Corridor & were looking for opportunities for thier crew. Then they found that there were lots of emergency calls from the outer edges of the Corridor. This was the Cube making it's enterance into the sector. Spacecraft, stations, etc. were being destroyed after encountering the Cube. 

 

The PC's were dealing with the Nicodemous Corridor and the PC's cybersneaks got a work out tonight. The party was  trying to take out the defenses, weapon systems, shields, and locks that The Cube by Joseph Mohr . This adventure was originally made for the Cepheus Engine Rpg. However Cepheus Engine is easy to adapt to Stars Without Number because these rpg's share thier skill systems. This session report picks right up from the last session  on the blog. 

The PC's found the remains of two United Space Cruisers wrecks that had encountered the Cube hundreds of years before. The PC's cybersneaks were trying to calm down the Cube's xenophobic A.I. but the party had to deal with the fact that the Cube was trying to blow them outta of the sky! 

The rest of the party was pressing thier employer/patron as to what he knows about the Cube. He has been evasive and cagey about his knowledge.After about 2 hours of play and dodging attacks. The PC's were able parley with the Cube's A.I. & get it to stand down. 

  The Cube questioned the PC's as to whom they had trade with. What thier relationships were with several alien races that the PC's had crossed paths with in the past. The Cube also copied thier data banks and wanted to know what the party's intentions are. They wanted to know if the party had been gene sculpted and how long they've been trading. The A.I. also analyzed thier course charts and full on trading contracts. The party made notes of various factions that have appeared in Trey Causey's Strange Stars but that haven't appeared in our game. There's also the fact that the Cube wanted to know if the party has had any interactions with alien bioroids. The players were taking notes after notes as to many factions and powers that the Cube named off. All of this came about in virtual space. We ended tonight with the Cube's A.I. considering on letting the party aboard or blowing them outta of space.
