May the venture we begin today, fund the adventures of tomorrow!
ACI was thought up with the notion that a group doesn’t need to separate their trade from a desire to explore. We wanted an org that looks at these two things as 50/50. Not trading for the sake of being a trader, but trading as a means to an end. A means to pay for the other things we want to do. And not only that but to use trade as a way to get our members money to join the exploration expeditions. What could be better than a fully crewed Carrack sailing into the unkown? I would contend that TWO Carracks (and perhaps a starfarer to get ya most of the way to the edge of space) or more would be the definition of adventure just waiting to happen. We’re excited, and we want you to be as well. COME JOIN US!
While exploring costs money (ie. fuel, maintenance, insurance) with a small margin for financial gain. A few full trade runs in a Banu Merchantman should fund a trip or two to far off sectors of space quite nicely. ACI is looking for people who want to escort/support a few Banu MM, split a moderate portion of the profits, and then put what’s left into exploring the unknown.
With a Banu MM and an Anvil Carrack as a part of the fleet already there will be many opportunities to make money and go find something cool to explore. And when it comes to what each member has to bring to the table, we will be getting a percentage chart together so that each person has a clear idea of what they can expect to get paid out of each cargo run. Escorts will get a cut, crew members aboard the trade vessels will as well. Then when the time comes to go exploring with the left over funds we will base the exploration crew off of an availability/deservability basis.
So whatta ya say? Let’s make some money and let the shenanigans begin!1ACI RULES
- HAVE FUN
- Don’t steal from, or kill, any org members (obviously this means down the road in the PU…. and IRL)
- If you borrow someones ship, make sure you top off the tank when you’re done
- Ramming is not an acceptable combat tactic (I’m looking at you Aurora owners)
Long story short, don’t be a jerk, have fun, and get paid!
