Over the last few days I was thinking of carrying out a raid, largely for the purpose of gathering various materials that could be of use at some time in the future. After a bit of time to think, I've decided on a target and an objective.
The target of this raid is Bespin, which is on the very edge of the Omega Protectorate's territory. The objective is to steal a shipment of cortosis and a large, armed freighter on which the shipment is to be taken off of the planet.
Here's what we'll need at minimum:
To achieve the objective, the plan has three (not so) simple steps:
1. Land at Cloud City; the hijackers and slicer will then disperse to take care of their individual objectives while I keep the Baron Administrator busy to buy the others time to carry them out.
2. At least two hijackers will locate a freighter for our use and commandeer it, while our slicer plants a virus in the Cloud City computer mainframe, which, if activated, will deactivate the city's repulsors and cause it to fall into the lower atmosphere (thus destroying the city and its occupants should they not meet our demands).
3. I will then declare our demands: hand over the cortosis shipments and grant us safe passage out of the system, or the facility will be destroyed. If they comply, they will then load the cortosis shipments onto the hijacked freighter, then we can all depart having carried out the raid successfully. If they refuse, then we just take the hijacked freighter and our ships, evacuate, and then activate the virus, sending a clear warning to others not to refuse our demands (unless, of course, "a million is a statistic").
The reward for successful completion of this raid is a large amount of cortosis (split evenly among the participants in the raid) and a fair sum of credits for most involved (except for my character, who will essentially buy the freighter from the others to have parts to upgrade his own ship).
A bit ambitious, I will admit, for my first idea for an RP thread on this site, but it's nothing I haven't done before on other sites, so this should be possible. Any takers?

Here's what we'll need at minimum:
- One person to keep the authorities busy and deliver our ultimatum (myself)
- Two hijackers (to obtain the freighter for our use), preferably more due to the requirements of operating a large freighter at optimum performance levels
- A slicer (to provide the virus we'll need to make this work).
