Mission Report: Ironclad Dominion - SteelStrand City
Date: 02-17-2324
The mission briefing commenced in the Command Information Centre (CIC) of the Spectre, with a complement of crew members present:
• Marcus Croft
• Fazzy Constantine
• Eric Regulus
• Tinman
• Bansealgair
• Vahenir
• Sparrow
• Daisy
• Chastian
• Robotgirl
• Scrap
• Alpha
This marked the crew's inaugural briefing in the newly established CIC. The atmosphere was charged with anticipation as Captain Tinman and Commander Constantine outlined the details of their upcoming mission on the planet Serados, within the Rykon territory, specifically targeting SteelStrand City, a prominent trade outpost.
Prior to the briefing, diplomatic channels were utilized by the command to liaise with SteelStrand officials, ensuring a smooth arrival under the government's auspices. Emphasis was placed on maintaining discretion, given the potentially delicate nature of the city's governance.
Of note, Marcus Croft, a recent native of SteelStrand City, had previously established connections within the locale, affording him certain privileges and insights. His counsel, alongside that of the XO, Eric Regulus, and the command, underscored the importance of adherence to local ordinances and norms to avoid unnecessary attention or punitive measures. Respect for the city's regulations and deference to its authorities were strongly advised.
Following the briefing, the crew gathered on the observation deck as the Spectre entered orbit around Serados. Upon confirmation from SteelStrand ground control, appropriate docking procedures were followed, leading the crew to disembark in the city's spaceport.
Upon arrival, registration as citizens was completed to facilitate access to designated areas. Marcus Croft guided the crew to the Sigil, their designated base of operations during their stay in SteelStrand City.
Once settled, the crew's initial objectives included familiarising themselves with the city's layout and establishing rapport within the local community. A visit to a nearby pub provided an opportunity for social interaction, albeit interrupted by the unbidden entrance of Felix Hopper, a known figure and supposed "El'Aurian" in the area, issuing cryptic warnings of impending danger.
Despite the disturbance, the crew maintained composure and subsequently engaged in informative discourse with the establishment's staff, garnering valuable insights into local customs and regulations.
Subsequent exploration led by Scrap, Vahenir, and Fazzy provided additional context regarding the city's socioeconomic landscape, encountering notable landmarks and encountering guarded areas, presumably of strategic significance.
Their observations and interactions, documented with discretion, contribute to the ongoing assessment of SteelStrand City and its environs.
With the completion of their initial reconnaissance, the crew is poised to delve deeper into their mission objectives, leveraging their newfound understanding of the city's dynamics.
Meanwhile, Scrap, Vahenir, and Fazzy ventured out as night fell. They explored the market, interacted with a busker, visited Tonald's Diner (learning it was a reference to a fictional cartoon character, and also their former nemesis), and encountered a garage worker repairing a sports car. They stumbled upon a guarded nuclear tower near an SVI HQ or Embassy, possibly linked to the Stellar Vanguard Initiative. They were warned to leave the area or obtain a permit. Pressing on, they inspected cheap rentable pods before nearing a dangerous-looking cordoned-off area near a security checkpoint and police-controlled zone.
Adhering to warnings, they returned to the city, visited the food market, and sampled Space Shrimp Dumplings. They then retired to the Sigil, their forward operations base during their stay.
With their initial exploration completed, the crew prepares to delve deeper into the city, align with factions, and undertake their mission objectives.
End of report.
Conclusions:
The initial foray into SteelStrand City has provided the BluShock crew with valuable insights into the city's societal dynamics, regulatory framework, and potential challenges. Key highlights from the mission report include:
• Local Dynamics: The city is characterised by a mix of industrial activity, governmental control, and the presence of various factions, including law enforcement and criminal elements.
• Marcus Croft's Influence: Marcus Croft's pre-existing connections within the city afford the crew certain privileges and insights, enhancing their operational capabilities.
• Adherence to Regulations: The crew's adherence to local regulations and respect for authorities is crucial to avoiding unwanted attention and legal repercussions.
• Cryptic Warning: Felix Hopper's cryptic warning about the Djinn and their "machines of Death" hints at potential threats lurking within the city. Further investigation is warranted to assess the validity of this warning.
• Exploratory Endeavors: Scrap, Vahenir, and Fazzy's exploratory endeavors shed light on notable landmarks, guarded areas, and potential points of interest, including the SVI HQ or Embassy and the guarded nuclear tower.
Follow-On Actions:
• Investigate Felix Hopper's Warning: Further investigation is required to ascertain the veracity of Felix Hopper's warning about the Djinn and their potential threat to SteelStrand City. This may involve gathering additional intelligence from local sources and conducting reconnaissance missions in areas of interest.
• Establish Contact with Local Factions: Building rapport with key factions within SteelStrand City, including law enforcement, governmental authorities, and influential individuals, will be essential for navigating the city's complex political landscape and gathering actionable intelligence.
• Enhance Situational Awareness: Given the presence of guarded areas and potential threats, the crew should remain vigilant and prioritise enhancing situational awareness through surveillance and reconnaissance efforts.
• Continue Exploration: The crew should continue their exploration of SteelStrand City, identifying potential allies, resources, and strategic locations that may aid in achieving mission objectives.
• Prepare Contingency Plans: In anticipation of unforeseen challenges or hostile encounters, the crew should develop contingency plans and operational protocols to ensure the safety and success of their mission.
By implementing these follow-on actions, the BluShock crew can effectively navigate the complexities of SteelStrand City, mitigate potential risks, and advance towards achieving their mission objectives.
Thank you for the inspiration!

Dominion Theatre, London. Demolition was narrowly averted in 1990, when, in a poor state of repair, the theatre seemed doomed to be replaced with a hotel. A vigorous campaign stalled the plans and the theatre was sold by Rank to Clear Channel and Nederlander, the latter taking total ownership within a decade. Opened in 1930, designed by W & T R Milburn. Grade 2 listed.
