I used to run some games with my regulars. Often they will hear a lot about the item they were looking for, but upon obtaining the object, the rumours are usually less than truthful.
Hmm... what happens when that crystal drops into a reservoir of mana (PPE) potion........

He has been their target since the Commissioner's son was apparently sent to detention every afternoon for the last 6 months. My client was there to entertain his investors after work, what's wrong with that? He was merely posing for a photo. Now if you gentlemen and ladies will excuse me, I've got some dirt to dig up on this most unorthodox raid. can you imagine they did not even have a warrant!

" Although the SissNac engine is an initial space-travel failure, an increased number of orders has been reported at SissNac Spacial Engineering. Apparently a day after the recall, a unspecified buyer has placed an order for all of the recall products. When asked by our reporter, SissNac's board of directors have nothing to add nor understand why the order was made. However, they are just happy, all is not lost."
Somewhere in the Thundercloud Galaxy a meeting of several regal-looking individuals progresses.....
Shadow Figure 1: We will have the order soon. The imbecile do not know why we are purchasing, nor have they asked. They are just too glad to minimise loss.
Shadow Figure 2: Good... Little have they realised that the engine is also a time transporter.
Shadow Figure 3: All our scientific readings have concluded that they have over-tuned their engine, resulting in reversal of physical growth.
Shadow Figure 4: Now we can rule all of time!!
All the individuals started laghing......... MUWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!!! **choke**

thus Transgalactic Stellar Rally
except this rally has no set timelimit, just the requirement that you find every checkpoint. the checkpoints are hidden, making the task a challenge.
Is this anything like that huge space race they had in Outlaw Star where they had that enormous space race through the Heiphong system?

i based the announcer team on the ones from futurama.

Hmmm.....what about ex-military craft? I imagine that older military craft have to be well-vetted(proof of demobilization/decommision and sale to civilian agency)
Aramanthus wrote:(Announcer's voice) It seems to have been repainted. I see a lot of fire and lightning detailing this all black vessel.

In the information he supplied to the race authority, he is only using a manual powered CG-engine! Such engines have no lower or upper limits, restricted only by the very being who manual winds it....... Is this guy nuts?!")
