balmung [Periodic] Merchant, Marine Sign Ups

[Verad]

Per the conclusion of Lady of War, a new stunt is available for ships:

 

Firesand Depth Charges: +2 to Shoot when performing a Gunnery action against an opponent with the /Submerged/ Aspect.

 

This stunt may replace your ship's current stunt, or you may add it to your ship at the cost of one of your own.

[Verad]

Because several people have committed an act of high treason and are now situated on the island of Gloam, a special set of Turns exists for them to take actions in and around the island. If they leave the island at any point to return to civilized Eorzea, they will lose access to these Turns:

 

Gloam Turns 3/5

New Act Event!

 

It's Probably Profiteering

[Leggerless]

Uh... I'm wanted for that event too.

 

Apparently.

[PhantasticPanda]

Eeyyyy. simbaaaaa. I'll sign up for this one too since I've been missing a few.

[Knight Kat]

Qara for It's Probably Profiteering!

 

I'd like the opportunity to show off her diplomatic power. I think many would be surprised. And if a fight happens to start, she's not bad at that either!

[Aya]

I'd like to attend if it fits the plan.  If not I'll take a reserve spot instead :-D

 

Edit: Sixth to sign up anyway, that works! :-D

Section 6:

 

Current Story Aspects:

Ceruleum Shortage - There is still a dearth of magic crystal juice (the scientific term) on the Limsan markets. Prices have skyrocketed, and people with magitek appliances are having a hard time charging them.

 

A New Patriotism - The population is still firmly rallied behind the notion of a unified Limsa Lominsa. There is an increasing sense that the compromise for liberty made by the Admiral did not go far enough amongst members of the populace and some elements of the miliary. Pirates, of course, have other ideas about this.

 

Hawker's Alley Harmony

Another supply of magitek appliances has arrived in Limsa Lominsa, apparently as prize booty from a successful raid on a Garlean supply ship in Ilsabard. Remembering what happened the last time, the Yellowjackets have confiscated the lot, and a flood of outraged petitions are on the adventurer's leve boards begging for help to make legal authorities see sense and release the products on the market.

Sail The Stable Seas

In the wake of recent patriotic support, the Maelstrom is in the process of reviewing independent warships attached to privateers to see if any are worthy of being paid off and pressed into permanent service. Elements of 1st Squadron leadershp have their eye on a fine trade galleon that could easily be refitted as a warship. However, the vessel is regrettably registered with Gridania, and so the Maelstrom cannot easily press the ship into service. Negotiators are requested to discuss the matter with the ship's captain and determine a fair price to put the vessel to use where it really belongs.

Floating Fortress Firmitas [Travel, Ship Required]

After over a moon of preparation, elements of the 5th Squadron of the Crimson Fleet and the 9th Squadron of the old Armada are assembling for a joint strike on the breakaway colony of Gloam in the Rothlyht Sound, intent on driving away or destroying the Garlean presence in the Sea of Jade and bringing the defectors under the leadership of Slaeglac Doesbluomsyn to heel. Elements of the Black and War Sails of the auxiliary fleets are requested as fast scouts to track the location of the rumored Garlean "whale-ship," and to bombard and assault the island should the traitors refuse to surrender.

 

 

"To all vessels of the joint fleet,

 

Recent talks with the separatists have confirmed that the Garlean forces thereon have defected and pledged their allegiance to Eorzea. However, a larger Garlean fleet is en route from Ilsabard, intent on taking the island and creating a new Castrum. We are to intercept them northeast of the island and, with the combined forces of our fleet and the separatists, drive them out of the Sea of Jade.

 

A formal treaty with the separatists is pending. Until that time, their fleet is to be treated as an allied force. Expect a combined fleet of auxiliary pirates and experimental Garlean weaponry

 

-Grand Storm Marshal Slafyrsun"

Hawker's Alley Harmony

 

 

For now. Might switch events later for Zan's. 

[Zaius]

Floating Fortress Firmitas, for Scout & Assault if possible.

[S'imba]

Scouting! I should be able to do that one.

[Aya]

Tentative on the scouting - I may give the slot to someone else

[LiadansWhisper]

Tentative Scouting and Assault.

 

But I'm also waiting on Zan's Act.

[Verad]

It seems like many people are waiting on Act events first. Shall we set those up and proceed from there?

[Austurmax Laforet]

I'd like to tentatively sign Maric Thornharte up for Hawkers Alley Harmony, if possible.

[Melkire]

Scouting as Osric w S'imba please!

[Jana]

Assault as Jana, assuming An will be bringing the ship for it!

[Anstarra]

Tentatively Assault event. If not, I might switch to Sail the Stable Seas.

[Leggerless]

Looking at the Scouting event for now.

[Verad]

I am removing Liadan, S'imba, and Osric from the Travel Event sign-up because they plan to use Turns. These slots are open for others, but will be available for the three of you if nobody else takes them.

[Edda]

I'm a bit rusty, but I'll sign up for Hawker's Alley Harmony. I can also show for Stable Seas in the event some slots need filling when the time comes.

[Tiergan]

I sign up Tiergan for Floating Fortress Firmitas - Assault!

[Leggerless]

Due to other RL obligations making attending that event schedule wise a bad idea, I'm dropping out of the Scouting. Not a Temp move just to get/spend Turns.

[Verad]

A New Event Appears!

 

Comes the Storm [Travel Event, Ship Required]

In a last-ditch attempt to bring the conflict between the people of Gloam and the Maelstrom to a bloodless end, the crew of the Stormbreaker set out to beat Commodore Haelstymm and his squadrons to the island, carrying with them a secure means of communication with the Admiral's second-in-command in hopes of brokering a peace between both sides.
