Disaster in Space/Amy: Rebel Base
From Create Your Own Story
One of the planets in this system has recently declared its independence from the Federation. Unfortunately for them, the Federation doesn't allow that sort of thing and they have been fighting a losing battle with the Federal Navy ever since. Fortunately for them, their planet is wealthy enough to buy "used" weapons from "independent traders" like yourself. You don't really care about their cause one way or another, but the Federation doesn't treat smugglers much better than rebels so you might as well profit by their struggle. Your ship is laden with the latest in high-grade weaponry for space fighters and other combat vehicles - illegal of course, but to you that just means they are more valuable. And you know from reading the news that the rebels need them badly.
You bring your ship to a full stop near the rebel base, where a freighter and its three fighter escorts soon meet you. You answer their hail and a young man in a smart-looking uniform greets you.
How are they paying you?
