Steven waited until Admiral Bedru, Nash, Watson and the Protector's Captain
returned to the conference table.
"Before I start the debrief, I need to inform you of what I found when I ran
a scan of the Ramesar ships."
He put the scan results up on the screen (GM, is there a screen where this
could be put?).
{GM: Yes there is a screen, and the scans will appear to help illustrate her
report.}
Scans indicated a crew of roughly 70, and from a technology stand point,
were
quite advanced for people that shunned technology. They were definately
warp
capable, and they had some rather decient weapons capabilities. Estimating
from the size of their reactors and warp core, that they could match the
Protector in terms of speed, but would not quite be enough to take her out
in
a firefight. The pair of them could not either.
However, there was something strange. There were sections of the ship that
could not be scanned. There was some (3 per ship) very localized high
energy
shielding that prevented scans from penetrating. Could be weapons or extra
power generation facilities... These areas were close to power distribution
centers and to weapons areas.
"My own theory is that the Ramesar are hiding something. Their weapons
technology is very advanced for a race that, according to Mr. Watson, does
not like technology. It could possibly be that another race is helping
them, though I am at a loss as to who would be doing so. Also, what are in
those sections that we can't scan? And would they be able to kick our butts
with what is behind those shielded areas?"
Bedru comments, "Your theories are quite good, Commander Liridian, and I
must say that I share your curiosity. Perhaps we should add those questions
to your list to answer..." she said looking at Nash.
