Is there a deckplan for Longshot?

Main Game Map.

Welcome Marcus Fallin, if you need help, ask.

Doing okay Marcus? Need help?

Going through chargen, waiting for SM approval.

AWESOME!!

Vonon certainly seems to have fun as a tour guide.

In reply to Kheaiftouaw (msg # 925):

Speaking of Tour Guiding....

I swear I remember getting a Post, PM, rMail, whatever, from Sir Walter where he/you located those Staterooms (#10's) that were occupied, and who was in them.  I now can't find this info.

All I remember from this missive was that, since Count Darryl was originally in the Captain's Quarters, Sir Walter had occupied the #10 right next door.  After that, I don't remember nuthin...

So, a request for all you old timers on the Longshot--would you please tell me which #10 it is that you think you are occupying?

The #10 that is 3-meters by 4.5-meters, located portside--I have been under the impression that this Stateroom was the Dog House ^_^  I assumed that the stateroom was laid out for double occupancy, and that the two Vargr--Vonon and Kaengarr--were sharing it.

I was assuming that the 3-meter by 3-meter Staterooms are laid out for single occupancy.  StarMaster has confirmed this...sort of.  The 3-meter by 3-meter staterooms are equipped with two "fold-out" type beds.  These staterooms are capable of being configured for either single or double occupancy.  Be Warned!!

Also, much like the Dog House thing, I have been assuming--and I may have been doing so incorrectly--that the second 3-meter by 4.5-meter stateroom, the one with a corner given over to the dorsal turret access, was occupied by Khea.  Although I never verified it with Star Master, I always had this idea in my head that this stateroom's design went all the way back to the ship's military days, and that it was assigned to the top 2 Officers (or top 4 Officers) after The Captain, and therefore, like the Captain's Quarters, that 1.5-meter by 1.5-meter area portside of the turret access, was a shared, but still "private" Fresher.

If this doesn't fit with your ideas, Khea, just let me know.  Like I said, this was just something I was assuming, and was never "official".

In it's original, Military configuration, Room #12, the communal Fresher, was all that there was--plus private Fresher in the Captain's Quarters and, as I just mentioned, in the 1st & 2nd Officers Quarters (or just simply "The Officers Quarters", if it were set-up for 4 person occupancy).  In the old Military configuration, all the 3-meter by 3-meter #10's had been Regular Crew Quarters set up for quadruple occupancy.  And, I think, the 3-meter by 4.5-meter stateroom I was calling the Dog House may have either been the XO's quarters (similar to the Captains), or that may have been where the small Brig was.  I dunno.

Anyways, Kaengarr has left the ship, and Vonon has moved into the Captain's Quarters.  The two over-sized #10 staterooms to either side of #15 Dorsal Turret Access, may, or may not, have private Freshers.  Over the years, private Freshers may, or may not, have been installed in all the other #10's.  But if they were, that'll make for a small single occupancy, and a tight double occupancy, 3-meter by 3-meter stateroom.

Oh, just as trivia, the three aft-most 3-meter by 3-meter #10's--back during original service, those three staterooms were "Marine Country", two quadruple occupancy for the troopers and one double occupancy for the officers/NCO's.

So, "old timers", let me know where you think you've been sleeping.

And if you are not an "old timer", and you jump in, here, and tell me where you want to be quartered...that's just gonna irritate me.  However, since I am the new Captain, I suppose I should make an effort to be kind to you new guys, so I will personally escort you to your new quarters...just step into this airlock, here...

I believe this is what you were looking for. (Message 293 Destination: Cassandra Belt)

(Med bay side)
7-Vonon 10A-Samantha 10B-Sharik (?) 10C-Valeska (?) 10D-Evelyn(?) 11 (Med bay) 10E (Empty) 10F Pablo (near Ships locker)

(Galley Side)
8-Mess 9-Galley 10G (Empty) 10H-Serge (?) 10I-Sir Walter 10J-Khealftouaw 13-Rec room 10K (Empty)

And not quite on the rooms. I took the one to the Southwest of the Med bay so I could use it as my office. Samantha took the one next to #7. I remember our former cook took the one next to the galley (10G). I think Pablo took a room next to the Ship's locker in case of an problems. The ones with (?) I was not sure of who had the room.

As for where you were, since we had less than 12 crew, each of us had our own room. The room to the south of the med bay, I had Kheaiftouaw there since it was next to the lift and could get to the drives quicker.

Prefer a single occupancy ;-) Other than that, no preference.

Pending GM approval Marcus is finished

6 Terms Merchant Marines rising all the way to Senior Captain. Whiz with maintenance and can even engineer some new parts. Can be very persuading when he needs to, but also knows a little bit about different parts of the ship having worked his way from maintenance to the bridge. He still prefers the engine room.

LOL, Vonon has competition! Who let the dogs out?!

We can run competing ships, or form a business.

Longshot Enterprises, Walter wants a major company so he can swim in money!

If anyone wants to make connections, here are his events
1 Government made route changes
2 Ship assigned elite route
3 On team of internal investigators
4 Noble heaps praise on ship
5 Military escort hitches ride
6 Captain running side business


As far as competing with Vonon, Marcus is not financially, or transactional, savvy. That was always someone else's job.

I just got hired as an engineer. Engnrng 3.

Am I still missing skills Rob? If I am, I can add a few, or I can train in space and add a few more.

Good chance they served together if you want to make the connection. Marcus ended up Senior Captain with Pilot (Starship) so you could have served as the senior ship's boat pilot. Just a thought.

I was in the Darrian Confederation Navy. So, no. We didn't serve together before, but we have plenty of stories to tell.

Do Vargr like that term?

Probably not, I'm sure he doesn't like mail men and or paper boys either! ;-)

Looks I will be out of a job with so many engineers joining up.

Doc Zeller's Broker and tight fisted trading school is always looking for students...

No, no, don't be silly.  Why would a Vargr take seriously any odd reference to their Terrestrial Canine origins?  Nah!  No worries on that front--ya buncha big nekkid monkies!

^_^

Yup, that's the one.  Now add to that, this...



So then:
Stateroom:
(starb'd) 10-a: Samantha Kilgore, Senior Pilot (Chief Pilot? First Pilot? What ya wanna call yerself, Sam?)
(starb'd) 10-b: Sharik Kaagira, Chief of Sensors & Computers (maybe here)(Sensors & Comps is your detail, isn't it, Shar'r?)
    (port) 10-c: Empty
(starb'd) 10-d: Valeska Brandenberg, Engineering(?)
    (port) 10-e: Serge Baklanov, Ship Security & Gunner
(starb'd) 10-f: Evelyn Darque, Engineering(?), Ship's Mascot(?)
    (port) 10-g: Sir Walter, Ship's Trader, Ship's Cargomaster, Ship's Purser.
    (port) 10-h: Kheaiftouaw, Chief Engineer
(starb'd) 10-i: Empty
(starb'd) 10-j: Pablo Esteban Ryzov, Ship Security & Gunner
    (port) 10-k: Empty

Right, now, before I start assigning the Noobies their bunks, I would like each older (PC) member of the crew to confirm they are in the stateroom listed or, if you would like to be elsewhere, then let me know.

Shar'r, yours was the only one Sir Walter wasn't sure about--really need a confirmation, or where you want to be, instead.

Khea--I had placed you in 10-h thinking you, as an Aslan, would want/demand the extra space, plus possibly want a place to get away from all the furless monkeys, every now and then.  Sir Walter brought up the issue of you being able to get to Main Engineering fast.  Actually, the floor hatch in starb'd side #14 leads directly down to just a few steps from the entrance to Main Engineering.  If this is a concern for you, as well, you might consider moving closer to that hatch Either take the empty 10-k, or kick Pablo out of his stateroom and take it for yours) ^_^

Kaengarr was acting as Purser & Ships Cook, so it makes sense for him to have been in 10-c.  Vonon was not always in #7--that only happened tonight IC--so he was likely in either 10-i or 10-k.  Partying with his buddy Pablo back in "Marine Country"!  I suppose we can say Vonon had been in 10-i.

I'll keep bugging StarMaster to find out if each #10 has it's own Fresher--though I continue to believe that #7, #10-g and #10-h should have private Freshers--that may not be true.  We may all be using the communal Fresher in #12.

And if that is the case, we better plan on spending some time in a shipyard--soon--adding more personal sanitary facilities.

And a frigging BLAST DOOR at the entrance into the Bridge, dammit!

Sharik is fine with 10-b.  As for duties - Astrogation is her primary role.  She can do Sensors and Computers as well, though.
