Reidquat *was not* an intentional destination, as will be explained later (i.e. once I've figured out where the hell the DP has been...).drew wrote:Is this before or after meeting Rebecca? He clearly hasn't learnt his lesson about Anarchy systems!
Cheers,

Reading that little yarn again, I'd say the old rustbucket got treated to the wrong end of the Thargoid's foul temper after an unexpected misjump.
The Bugs are still mightily po'd after their crushing defeat at Tibecia.

I only can borrow my words from other people here: What a re-entrance! 
You have really been missed around here, and it feels really good to know that you're back! I sincerely do hope that whatever RealLife™ issues were holding you in their grip, you have some breathing space again.
A very warm welcome back, and a Horray! for Captain Hesperus!
P.S.: Purely a nitpick: it's still Riedquat.

Hmm, I don't see on the map for there to be any possible situation where a mid-jump failure could cause Reidquat to be the closest system.Captain Hesperus wrote:Reidquat *was not* an intentional destination, as will be explained later (i.e. once I've figured out where the hell the DP has been...).
So, it makes sense that destination is due to a harried demand to get them out of their situation. Perhaps by instructing the navigator, "I don't care where, just do it! Now!"

Who's to say that it was a mid-jump failure? Who even said they had jumped from anywhere local?pmw57 wrote:Hmm, I don't see on the map for there to be any possible situation where a mid-jump failure could cause Reidquat to be the closest system.Captain Hesperus wrote:Reidquat *was not* an intentional destination, as will be explained later (i.e. once I've figured out where the hell the DP has been...).
