GURPS Star Wars -- Adventure

The scene: a dimly-lit catinia on Tatooine. You sit up nervously at the arrival of you Alliance contact, code named Marillion, who will bring you your next mission. She motions you and your resistance cell toward a private room where she sets up a sonic sreen over the room. Your contact fires up her hand computer and shows you a holographic display of an Imperial facility.

The target is located on the second planet in the Alfore system, about 3 days of hyperspace travel away. The system hosts an old civilian communications relay service station that has been reactivated by the Empire to handle their communications in this sector until a new station can be constructed. You primary mission is to download as many Imperial communication records as possible for use by Alliance intelligence analysists. The secondary goal is to destroy the power plant for the station in the most destructive way possible to put the station out for good.

Local Conditions
Your target is on Alfore II a remote planet in this sector that has, until recently, been used to handle civilian communications. The system contains three gas giants, a handful of unremarkable planets, an unexplored asteriod mine and one habitable planet with few natural resources where the station is located. Alfore II has no known sentient species and almost nothing is known about other local species. Alfore II is a jungle world with lots of water and a moderate greenhouse effect making temperatures warmer than normal. From long range surveys and conjecture about Imperial tactical doctrine a rough layout of the station has been constructed by Alliance intelligence.

1. Power Plant From energy emissions and standard Imperial practice Alliance Intelligence has deduced that the station is totally run by an old, bulky (TL8) fusion reactor.
2. Crew barracks Station personnel who run and service the station are quartered here. Their quarters and recreation areas are in this 5 story metal sided building.
3. Repair facilities Two 3 story tall buildings are next to the landing pad at this facility. Each is topped by a large tractor beam that is used to move damaged comm satellites into the tall buildings for maintenance and repair. During the day 15-20 people are repairing satellites.
4. Landing pad This is a pad designed for standard Imperial shuttles. It should be more than large enough to hold you ship. The width of the pad is about 50 yds.
5. Shield generatorsThe shield generator is a standard midrange-output defense grid designed to resist orbital bombardment from light ships. This particular type of shield generator is angled to deflect incoming fire from above the installation.
6. Turbo lasers Four quadruple anti-fighter batteries have recently been installed here.
7. Main computer/Monitor rooms This building houses the monitoring and control systems of all the comm satellites in this sector. The main computer keeps track of all communications routed by the satellites.
8. Sensor suite uplink This is an uplink to an old sensor suite in orbit designed to track the communications relays in this system.
