    Idar fights the stick to point the turret at the target as both the target and the base of the turret itself maneuver wildly. Even tying in the computer to help compensate for August's piloting is of little use. (If Idar took a moment to think about it, that is for the best. If his targeting computer could predict how August was about to turn, so can the one shooting at them.)

    "Roll whatever. Away from little fighter forward gun."

    I'll assume that you move the ship on the map, August, to allow Jaxom a shot from the forward arc. Diamaante, you are correct - the +2 from Telion is to speed, not to Piloting checks for this round.

    August responds to Diamaante's encouragement with a brilliant piloting manoeuvre, providing both Idar and Jaxom with forward arc targets that neither miss. The enemy ship fires its gyrolaser at the Hippocampus' forward arc.

    Ranged Attack on the Hippocampus: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 191d8 ⇒ 5 HIT! - 5 HP dmg

    Though the enemy ship punches through the fore shield and jostles the Hippocampus, the guns of both Idar and Jaxom blast through the plating at the front of the enemy ship.

    GM roll: 1d100 ⇒ 94

    Thick black smoke fills the tiny cockpit window of the enemy ship, and electrical sparks emit out from the ship into the void of space, snuffing out immediately. The ship somehow lines up for a further attack run.

    We'll start up Round 7 once we determine the final position of the Hippocampus on the map after Round 6.

    I did move the ship last night? I guess I'm not quite following the Starship combat turn in my head. It's the engineering phase, then the movement phase, then the gunnery phase right? And in movement phase the lowest roll moves first, then next lowest on up so the highest roll gets to pick their positioning last correct?

    Ranged Attack on the Hippocampus: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 151d8 ⇒ 3 MISS!

    Thanks to August's nifty piloting, the lasers from the enemy ship find no target in the Hippocampus.

    Diamaante and Idar, you may act! Your attack is at two range increments away (-2 to attack). Jaxom, you don't get an attack as the enemy ship is not in your firing arc.

    The Coilgun is a long-range weapon. It's range increment is 20 hexes. Looking at the map, I shouldn't have a penalty. (The lasers are short-range, but we can't use them anyway.)

    Attack!: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 5 + 1 = 19
    Damage: 4d4 ⇒ (4, 1, 4, 2) = 11

    Idar lines up his shot as the fighter turns to flee. "Flee in straight line. Never. Unless faster than bullet."

    You're absolutely correct, Idar!

    Idar inhaled slowly as his targeting arc zeroed in on the enemy ship, the green circle highlighting his open shot. Exhaling first, the polished sharpshooter allowed himself a brief moment of enjoyment as the coilgun discharged in perfect alignment, the projectile hurtling through space into the aft end of the enemy ship.

    The enemy ship shudders after the final volley of artillery fire from the Hippocampus. Like a leaf falling from the branch of a tree, the ship begins to spiral in irregular circular arcs in the general direction of its escape vector towards the Acreon. As the crew of the Hippocampus watches, the enemy ship clips the edge of the derelict ship, its mass spinning chaotically as it accelerates into the hulking satellite attached to the Acreon, the mysterious Drift Rock. The ship explodes on impact.

    The boxy and ungainly prospecting ship, the Acreon, moves across the main view screen of the Hippocampus slowly. The hull of the lifeless ship bears the scars of countless micrometeorite impacts, its colour faded from exposure to the radiation of space. Tethered behind the ship on long tow cables sits the misshapen asteroid known as the Drift Rock, a small cloud of particles on its far side the only sign of the recent impact from the tiny enemy vessel.

    A transponder alert bell sounds on the bridge of the Hippocampus as your ship hoves closer to a docking position with the Acreon. By accessing the alert, the following message plays:

    "By order of Absalom Station security, this ship and its tow package are under strict quarantine. Authorised personnel only. Trespassers will be prosecuted."

    A further proximity alarm goes off on the bridge, indicating the Hippocampus' position in space with respect to the Acreon.

    As your ship pulls ever closer, August realises that there are three separate docking ports to the derelict ship - port, starboard, and aft. Alternately, you could park your ship once you've achieved a matching orbit with the Acreon and spacewalk over to it.

    Just as you decide which docking port to access, a dense ball of ice and space matter with a trailing tail shoots by the main viewing screen to the Hippocampus, attracting everyone's attention. You all wonder silently to yourselves what the passing of this comet portends for your crew's fate.

    Jaxom checks his things. Twin pistols, well, not twins, but functionally equivalent, so close enough. Extra batteries. Med kit. engineering kit. He puts on a smile, and what he hopes is a brave face, "sure thing. Let's go. Weydan says today is going to be a good day."

    1-6 port; 7-12 starboard

    1d12 ⇒ 12

    August brings the Hippocampus into close matching orbit to the starboard side of the Acreon. Once orbital synchronisation has been achieved, the crew gathers in the airlock compartments to fit themselves in spacesuits for the short spacewalk across to the other ship.

    As the crew suits up and nervously (or excitedly) glances out the access door panel to their destination, it becomes quite clear just how desolate a scene might be in store. None of the flickering perimeter lights on the external vectors of the Hippocampus are similarly lit up on the Acreon. No power core glow or thrum seems detectable from the vessel. The only activity to be seen is the steady light-pulse of the quarantine beacons in space around the ship.

    The crew gather in the airlock after engaging auto-pilot functions on the Hippocampus. The floating droid hovers ever-present by Diamaante's shoulder, its green camera light unphased by the uncoupling of the vacuum seals and the loss of gravity within the external airlock chamber.

    Suddenly, you're all free. The void of space, albeit the tiniest sliver in the greater context of things as represented by a few metres in between the Hippocampus and the Acreon, beckons. You float, as if in a buoyant pool, bathed in silence and artificial light emanating from the external lanterns on your ship. Shadows and reflections pass over your globed view of the world, your point of view limited to ~270 degrees in all directions. Your muscles seem to be far away, slow to your call in this alien place.

    Telion:
    This feeling is all-too familiar in a panic-inducing way. You floated, half-alive and half-awake, for what it felt like a lifetime after your accident. Your pulse quickens unconsciously, and it takes your solarian training to calm yourself down, to focus on the job at hand. You eye the closed docking bay door on the Acreon, singularly concentrating on getting out of this outside.

    August:
    Curious, this. And that's all the more curious - not much makes you feel curious. If pressure and subatomic cold weren't huge concerns, you could pop the top of your spacesuit and exist in this world. It must be so very limiting to be completely organic, you think as you glance over your crew members. Curious.

    Jaxom:
    Oh Desna Oh Weydan Oh Ibra. You fix machines. You study mystic arcane energies. You don't SPACE WALK. This is not what you signed up to do. You signed up to meet new alien races, to catalogue species, to explore PLANETS. NOT SPACE. Oh Abadar Oh Talavet Oh Hylax...

    Diamaante:
    This feels NOTHING like that scene from Shiny Foreign Bodies. Of course, that movie was about many other things apart from Astrophysics, like Xenobiology and Anatomy, but still. This feels nothing how they described it - the producer and writers probably hadn't ever been off-planet. You should warn Bunny to auto-reject any future projects with that team. Oh, Bunny.

    Thoughts of cinematic license and erstwhile agents flitter through Diamaante's mind as she floats across the void. It's a strange sensation, but not altogether an unpleasant one. The lashunta reaches for the airlock door and accesses it to allow the party entrance to the Acreon.

    Aided by extra limbs, and experience with occasional vacuum/gravity drills on the Idari, Idar lands cleanly on the hull of the Acreon. If at all possible, he'll tie off his safety line to a handhold or anchor point on the hull of the vessel.

    His simple, titanium-cored cable won't meaningfully slow down the Hippocampus if they need to flee in a hurry, but it should keep the Hippocampus from drifting away, and provide something for the less nimble/confident members of the group to cross over, hand-over-hand.

    As August attempts an overly-dramatic channel jump from the Hippocampus to the Acreon, Diamaante glides across using the kasatha's titanium cable line. While the android is recovering and Idar secures his line for ease of passage, the envoy susses the access panel and pulls on the emergency jack, popping the starboard airlock hatch.

    Engineering DC 10:
    No hiss of air or vapour occurs when the emergency airlock hatch release valve is popped. This suggests that the whole of the ship (or at least, the starboard access port) is depressurised.

    Diamaante floats inside the starboard docking bay and gently clunks to the floor. Flickering emergency lights do little to dispel the darkness inside the derelict ship, and the sense of abandonment is only heightened by the apparent lack of activity - organic or otherwise - inside this airless corridor. Artificial gravity is still functional, so there’s likely still power to run essential systems and possibly restore life support and atmosphere to the ship. Unfortunately, there are still no obvious clues as to the fate of the Acreon’s vanished crew. The airlock seal onto the ship proper stands closed in front of the envoy.

    August finds the airlock controls but no computer terminal in this cramped passage.

    Jaxom:
    You surmise that a depressurisation of the ship was an executive command - only able to be actioned through the main computer on the bridge, or the main engineering computer with the right massaging (i.e. hacking). Searching for a way to restore environment from the starboard airlock isn't fruitful.
