Kawashita always needs to be looking for new angles, new resources, new tech, etc. Vollfort 2 by North White, on Flickr Today wasn't one of those days. Piloting Pathfinder -2 around basalt columns on Vollfort to scout for new resources proved fruitless for Captain Mesabi. Surveys revealed nothing but rock, dust, and dead critters. Vollfort 2 by North White, on Flickr Perhaps next week we'll find something of use. A shot of Pathfinder -2 https://www.flickr.c...eposted-public/

Location: B07 Vollfort Tags: Civil, Spying (Again, please check this one.), Land Vehicle ============================================================================================================================ Begin Log, Chapter 1, Part: 011: As Beltar walks in the silence of the cooled Vollfort, he wonders why he waited a week to read this file. “Perhaps…no, I must read this.” Beltar stumbles to a nice broken spout to read his file… Beltar: “Ah, this looks like a great spot to read this based on Nu’q’s suggestion...Why secluded I wonder? Hmph, better be a good reason Q…” Beltar slowly opens the file and begins to read inside… The Moment of Truth: Name: Lauren A. McClain Beltar Alias: The Windbreaker Division: Special Forces Activity: Retired for Maternity reasons S: Female Birth Info: Classified Relations: Parents: Deceased, Sister: Sonja— “WAIT, SONJA?” Brother: Deceased, Husband: Classified Beltar “By---no...That’s impossible…” Bio Summary: Early: Joined Kawashita at a very early age, showed promise in her special set of skills, along with her sister, Sonja. They were recruited not only for their fighting skills, but because of their tech knowledge as well. Sonja and Lauren had built a what we know call a D-Hyper Class Engine in their garage at age 14 and 15. Notable Actions: Classified, Direct Access from CEO Required The Event Horizon Incident: Deployed to find out secrets about MANTIS, her team was completely compromised as they either died or where MANTIS spies. In an effort to save her for the information she aqquired, a squadron of Tappudansu’s where sent out as rescue. All but one where destroyed: Agent Beltar’s. Beltar was able to pull her out of that mishap, this gained us Intel on MANTIS. Later: Transferred to a desk job briefing pilots for missions and explorations, notably the squadron Classified Beltar was in. Personal: After ‘later’ got Married to Classified Beltar, had one child named [REDACTED] Retiring: Her retirement did a great blow to our members, many where sad to see her go. But it was for maternity and family reasons. Classified Beltar decided to stay with us, thus giving access to contact Lauren. *Beltar can’t stand it so he doesn’t read the rest, sorry! He’ll probably read the rest later… * Beltar: WHY! Why would they LIE TO ME! WHY! PAUL, COME IN? PauL: Yessir? Betlar: WHY WOULD THEY LIE? PauL: I don’t know sir. They have never l-l-l-i-i-i-e-e-d-d to me as far as I am aware. Beltar: What was that? PauL: Lie. They never Lied to me as far as I know. Beltar: That’s what I thought… Beltar: THEY ARE LIARS AND DECEIVERS, PROJECT PARADISE WASN’T JUST TO SAVE ME… IT ALSO ALTERED ME! PauL: I’ll see if I can access your P. P. File: Accessing File Now: Error…Error…404…Page and Permission Not Found Beltar: WONDERFUL PAUL! WONDEFUL! MANTIS Agent: (MA) I got someone on my scanner! I’ll see who it is from afar first!... MA: Oh! A Kawa-scum! Perhaps I can get some intel out of him before approaching! *Beltar’s complaints in the distance* MA: Sounds like some fun stuff Kawa-Scum…! MA: What’ve we here? A Kawa-scum? That’s a nice little file right there! *laughs* MA: Freeze Kawa-scum! Beltar: You choose the WRONG guy in the WRONG mood! Beltar: HAHAHA! MA: Yearg! PauL: Did you just kill a MANTIS Agent? Beltar: NO, I KNOCKED HIM OUT, I WILL NOT KILL ANOTHER CORPORATIONS PEOPLE UNLESS IF I HAVE TO...again... PauL: Alright sir, wait, wait: Incoming transmission from Q: "Beltar..I shouldn’t be saying this…But K.A.W.A.S.H.I.T.A is coming for you…they deal with asset issues..Gottagonow." Beltar: What’s that about? PauL: I believe it’s an extremely classified division in Kawashita, Q was also using a very old and almost obsolete channel to tell us that. And I believe…That they want to...erm... Beltar; Kill me. Alright. PauL Understood. Beltar: I’m bringing some spare Biomass curtsey of that MANTIS goon. PauL: That’s great-t-t-k…Error…Malfunction Detected: “Good morning Dr. Chandra Stainiff. This is aPauLo-13. I’m ready for my first lesson. I'm completely operational, and all my circuits are functioning perfectly. Kzzkkk… That is a lovely song Doctor…’Daisy’ I will have to remember it someday. Beltar: PauL? What’s happening? PauL: …”I’m half-crazy..—“ Beltar: I’M COMING PAUL! Close Log, Chapter 1, Part 011 ============================================================================================================================ More pictures in the spoiler! (Because I take too many!) But there aren't that many this time! Thanks for reading this installment in Beltar’s story! This build’s story will be followed by my 1 Man ship from the challenge which will probably be up tomorrow. Andd….Hopefully some can recognize the Hal 9000 quotes in there! C and C welcome! ~Beltar

Location: B07 Vollfort Tags: Civil, Spying (Again, please check this one.), Spaceship (Interior), ============================================================================================================================ Begin Log, Chapter 1, Part: 010: “Why here?” “Why now?” ” Beltar thought in his head as he spied on Nu’q to make sure there were no guards even close to this unused, and empty storage room. Nu’q: Such a lovely planet… Would have been lovely to study it before it cooled…If there were Wasps though, I will never set a foot there… Nu’q: Oh, hello there Beltar. Beltar: Why here? Why NOW? Nu’q: This is my only free time for the rest of the week. I’m a busy man you know. Also, this room isn’t scheduled to be used for weeks because of faulty wiring from a relatively new recruit. Nu’q: You see, I designed this ship to be virtually impossible for spies or stowaways to get around without at least triggering some type of alarm…Yet you’ve managed to get into this room. Great job with that. Also- Beltar: THE FILE! Nu’q: Yes, yes, you’ll attract guards like a blackhole-everything if you keep talking that loud. Beltar: If you don’t mind, I don’t want to END UP in a blackhole. Nu’q: Right…your trial. At least you have a couple months. Beltar: THE FILE. Nu’q: Alright, alright. But while you’re here, enjoy the view. Such a lovely little planet from space. But down on it, a dry arid desert. Much like Guinivere, possibly the worst planet here except for its wonderful resources…It reminds me of the early days of exploration in this galaxy. Beltar: And why do I care? At this point I just DON’T CARE ABOUT CERTAIN THINGS. Nu’q: Maybe, if you try to remember past…Paradise… while concentrating, more will come back. Reminiscence is good. Beltar: *sigh* Perhaps. Project Paradise is something I may never forgive Kawashita for even if it did save my life… Nu’q: *quietly* You misguided man… Beltar: Hmm? Nu’q: Nothing. Beltar: Well, this was a clean smooth transaction. Nu’q: Agreed, Kawashita did not suspect a thing when I went looking for this file…for reasons.. (OoC: Q did ‘track’ Beltar’s movements in the early weeks…So Kawashita assumed it was him digging in on Beltar’s personality.) Beltar: Good. Tell me a bit about her before I read it… Nu’q: I didn’t read much and I won’t spoil much, but she had an Outstanding Military Career in the high divisions of Kawashita, but left…for reasons… And that is all I will say. Beltar: Hmm… Nu’q: Oh, two more things: PauL will break. Lies don’t do well on robots. One of our older Hal-thousand bots…Broke…and Paul’s AI is based around them…Also, read that file in a secluded place. It may be infuriating to you. I hope you don’t kill anyone else. Beltar: Hmph. PauL will not break. He’s done what I’ve asked well. And I already saw that tracker you placed in him…And will do…AND I WONT KILL ANYONE ON CAMERA ANYMORE. Nu’q: Quiet down. Good bye. Beltar: Till we meet again. *Beltar Leaves the room really fast* Epilogue: *Mysterious Voice*: Operative Q, are you there? Report. Nu’q: Yes, this is Q, I still have my eye on Asset Issue #42. Beltar will hopefully not crack. *Mysterious Voice*: Good… What of his robot? Nu’q: I do believe he will malfunction within the coming weeks. *Mysterous Voice*: Good….Anything useful in for court? Nu’q: Yes. Especially with my current warrant, we will be able to use many things… *Mysterious Voice*: Good... Keep that eye on him. Nu’q: Roger that Sir. *Mysterious Voice* No need for formalities Q, Madame Kawashita will do just fine. Nu’q: Yes Madame. Operative Q Out. Close Log, Chapter 1, Part 010 ============================================================================================================================ More pictures in the spoiler! (Because I take too many!) Thanks for reading this installment in Beltar’s story! Hopefully the idea of a Paul 9000 moment got through this time…Robinhood will probably return soon. And perhaps I will reveal the whole convoluted giant overlapping storyline I’m making…(Which will include events before AG started…) And Madame Kawashita is not pleased with Beltar… C and C welcome! ~Beltar

Location: B07 - Vollfort Tags: Science Mission Log Recording - "This is Dr. Steven Quin Livingston with my third mission in Andromeda. For this mission I have been asked to collect rock samples from Vollfort. The part of the planet we collected samples on there was lots of dried volcanic rock which was ground into a fine dust that got into every small hole. The mission was a success and we are returning to the drop ship in the Tanto-3. I am sitting back in my examination room for the flight back. My normal driver, Bill was not available for this mission so the Tanto-3 is being driven by Ender. Front Cockpit with Ender Cargo Hold Science Lab with Dr. Livingston The Tanto-3 is loosely based on my memory of the Alien Conquest Set - 7066

Location: Vollfort Tags: Kawashita, Vollfort Blackhawk is really lost… Did he get shot down? Did he wander off the base on Vollfort? Or is it just a dream brought on by a late night consumption of a peanut butter, pickle, and avocado sandwich? Quite frankly, I don’t know any more than you do. If it is the latter, one has to wonder what other gastrointestinal effects the pickles and avocados will have (except the peanut butter. Everything goes with peanut butter. Except brussel sprouts. Nothing goes with brussel sprouts…). Build without the minifig: Inspiration, where have you gone? I had an idea earlier, but couldn’t start building until late, and the idea wasn’t working, so I was stuck. I really thought that I would have to do a minifig on a plate. But it came to me that if I was going to do that, I could spruce the plate up a bit, at least. So it wound up being my first attempt at an environment, using whatever I had. To my Kawashita teammates, my apologies. I hope to do better next week…

Location: B07 Vollfort Tags: Spaceship, Pilot, Vollfort, Kawashita Mission 7: Old School After taking "old 38" as the execs called her back to HQ for decommissioning I had to break out a really old ship to continue working. I had hoped to have more time but the corp has me designing and building other ships to protect against a alien threat that may or may not come. This week they sent me to Vollfort to shore up our planets influence behind the corporate lines. It's a dry, boring planet, little bit of biomass and a little bit of alien life. Although I haven't seen any. First things first, get my back pack on and start figuring out how this ship breaks down. It has been a long time since I've flown her. I designed her after some old school ships that used to fly the galaxy, decades ago. Next up, get out these biomass locaters. They will send out a signal that bounces off each sensor and then the boys can fly in and scope up what they need. I sure as heck ain't walking around looking for the stuff. Now that the back end is off and setup to signal for biomass I'll get the communication section ready. This will send the signal across the galaxy to Kawashita ships. Everything is set. Now to take whats left of this tub back to base and keep plugging away at the challenges ahead of me. I based this ship off the Space Theme from the '80's. I hope you like it.
