Almost simultaneously, Sae receives a coded message from an unidentified number that all but confirms his theory that they\u2019re being tracked by their financial accounts.

She offers three solid targets &#8211; one an abandoned oil rig no longer in use, one an island mining facility, and the third a building here in Madua, Nemso. After much discussion, the crew decide to go for the triple distraction: they will rent a pair of aircars with company assets, then send one to the oil rig and the other to the island. While this is going on, they will then hit the Madua building personally.<\/li>\n<li>To that end, Eddy and Sae hit the startown, seeking out personal contacts first to get some clean funds (so as to avoid drawing further attention to themselves) while also purchasing gear like contragrav belts and explosives. Buck and Haank attempt to hack the building schematics but find they\u2019ve been intentionally blanked out. Ella reaches out to the lawyer firm to arrange for them to begin researching (through the courts) the island and the oil rig in the hopes that this will cause further distraction.<\/li>\n<li>The following day, while Aris lurks in a secure location so he can remote pilot the two air cars, the rest of the crew move to assault the Madua building.<\/li>\n<li>And then, Aris announces that one of the two air cars has been shot down\u2026<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>GM Notes:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Andricus (Aris\u2019 player) was out and will miss the next three or four sessions due to wedding and work stuff.<\/li>\n<li>Since we\u2019re livestreaming our games every Saturdays (6:00PM Eastern) at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/theronnke\">Ronnke\u2019s Twitch<\/a> channel and then later uploading the stream on the YouTube channel, we\u2019ve decided to dial back on the extensiveness of the recap to just the overall outline..<\/li>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><!--Precis - Ninth episode of the fourth \u201cseason\u201d for our ongoing GURPS: Traveller campaign.
