Gorn 10 | The Egg and Why | Starfleet Command
Welcome to Captain Chang Plays... Starfleet Command, Gorn Campaign.
In the previous episode, we sprung Harry Mudd from a Federation penal colony because he may have clues as to where our royal eggs have been taken, and there is no time to ask Federation diplomats nicely.
-----
I changed my ships and traded in my HDD plus and CM for a DNF (dreadnought with F-torp refit), because too many friendly ships mean I can't capture anything.
The Egg and Why
-----
We have tracked the eggs to this planet near the Neutral zone with the Romulans. However, if the Orions knew we are coming, they'll destroy the eggs in a heartbeat. We have to surprise them, which means you must CAPTURE the traitorous freighter, get the passphrase from the crew, then send away your own ships, and use the substitute freighter we provided, fly to the planet, beam down a vanguard team, recover the eggs and the team, then run for the border before anyone stops you.
NOTE: If you have more than one ship, it is VERY EASY to destroy the freighter, even if you order capture instead.
We immediately went speed 20 and tractored the ship when we come upon it, and I had to pull it away from my squadron mate to make sure he didn't kill it. The DNF has 4 transporters, so capture was not difficult as the freighter was only defended by 5 squads.
Once the freighter was captured, it will stay in place. I ordered my squadron to "go to " the ship, and they will "exit the area". (I probably should have ordered the captured freighter to leave as well.) Then I flew toward the planet but kept out of range of the "listening posts" (O-LP), as I don't want to be within 30 units of one.
When planet challenged me, I went to comm and replied "CLAP".
I then deep scanned the planet, then beamed down the vanguard team. After only a few seconds, I was able to beam back up the eggs and the team.
I then turned the ship around and headed to the border, and due to my early start, two or three Orion ships that followed me fell behind. We got a message about Whose Name Shall Not be Spoken (aka the Great Father)...
The Gorn Confed Council was disturbed. In the Gorn creation myth, the Gorn Mother and the Great Father are the founders of the race, but the Gorn Mother found Great Father was eating the eggs and fought him, eventually defeating him, and cast him out to the cold of space. Now he has returned to seek vengeance?!
The campaign continues...
