Boomtown? I'm not sure whether to laugh, or be impressed.

East of Hole on the Dust Coast. You know I wouldnt make up town or city names.

..........For some reason, I thought Boomtown was his last name.......also, I could find the town. Don't know which is the Dust coast.

The Dust Coast is the region just east of The Middle Plains. It also happens to be south of The Chattering Fjords, aka land of the Baronies.

I have it bookmarked, but I didn't know where the Dust Coast was. Never looked as much in that chunk.

While not necessarily important, there are no actual tables in the warehouse. There are however a multitude of crates of stuff, piles of stuff, shelves of stuff, but no tables of stuff. Sometimes crates are shuffled about to be sat on or used as tables but no actual tables. To continue on this there are technically 2 buildings here, the warehouse proper where everything's stored, now on side is the office building, which has been heavily remodeled into a home, featuring rooms for the crew as well as an armory, kitchen/dining room, gathering room and the bathrooms, which already existed and were fixed up. While the building has a loading bay it has been converted into the main workshop where most of their larger pieces of equipment are maintained as well as numerous projects that the crew may be working on.

Onto the Skyrunner, while technically a Junker, has seen some very hefty modification in the past, very specifically before it came into the hands of our two resident former Firnfeld Militia Captains Henley and Morgan (Richard). The most notable being the third deck, the increased width and length of the vessel, and numerous other minor things. The second deck contains a cargo hold and a crew berth for extended voyages. While there is no galley the crew cooks meals up on the top deck with a portable stove (Standard Issue Firnfeld Militia equipment that, need to keep warm while on patrol, also cook lunch). The number of weapon emplacements remain the same however the front gun position could feasibly mount a medium weapon if it was modified to a degree.

As of the moment the Skyrunner's armament is:
  • Front Mounted Anvalan Howitzer
  • Top Deck, Starboard - Modified Dual Chaingun
  • 2nd Deck, Starboard - Mortar
  • Top Deck, Port side - Carronade
  • 2nd Deck, Port side - Banshee Rocket Carousel
The front gun mount extends forward away from the ship, where the Rocket Craft Starlight Seeker would be attached beneath it to the vessel.

Thinking on it now the Skyrunner is a class of its own now... Hmm...

Also Bdr, Kei Naga? Seriously?  :P Not like I'm one to talk, considering I kind of see Preston as Hans Grimmish.

Well who knows, maybe we'll see some Andromeda adventures in the future. Andy is an interesting perspective to write from actually.
