 February 5, 2014 - 12:23pm | CFM are group of independent merchants that banded together to compete with and fight off mega corp bullying. If the Hepplewhite ship is a small independent company working on Volturnus then it could be a possibility for them to be a CFM affiliate. PCs could be a CFM hired investigation team... Hhmmm sounds like a mission for the crew of the Venture. The Venture happens to be in system and was suppose to meet with the Hepplewhite to tranship cargo/passengers? but the Hepplewhite is missing. Since the Hepplewhite is a fellow CF merchant the crew of the Venture, being the only other CFM merchant present are duty bound to investigate. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |

Then something went horribly wrong accidentally or deliberately. Sounds like a great job but where did you say we had to go? |

On New Pale the locals are New Pale Red Box Haulers. Headquartered out of Simeon's Rest.  They carry cargo to and from orbit or point to point on the planet. Ad Astra Per Ardua!
