Operation: Peons

Is it recording? ...Well, let’s start. Hello, my fellow employees. Welcome to our beautiful, democratic, and perfectly fair universe, where you must work yourself to the bone under the corporations assigned to you. During this peaceful working environment, you may encounter a few unexpected adventures and, perhaps, a couple of minor issues... hopefully not too many. Before we start our journey, let me give you a brief introduction. You will need it. Congratulations. You have been selected for employment at [REDACTED], one of the galaxy’s most trusted names in high-risk interstellar delivery. Your assignment is simple: deliver the cargo, preserve company property, and avoid unnecessary expenses. You and your crew will operate the Onerarius, an aging delivery vessel with a long service history, a questionable maintenance record, and a perfectly acceptable number of unresolved incidents. At least 3 person recommended. In every mission, one player becomes the Operator — the only crew member with access to the proprietary company guidebook. The operator can identify malfunctions, locate problems across the ship, and instruct the rest of the crew on how to fix them. The other players are the Peons. They know something is broken. They know something is on fire. They do not know how to fix it. Listen carefully, follow instructions, and try not to make the situation worse. Communication is the core of every successful delivery. The Operator must guide the crew using limited information while peons rush through the ship repairing systems, managing cargo, restoring power, and staying alive. Crew members can only hear each other clearly when they are close enough, so poor coordination may result in: - Delayed repairs - Fuel waste - Employee termination [REDACTED] accepts no responsibility for casualties caused by misunderstandings, panic, or preventable workplace incidents. The Onerarius operates on a delicate fuel consumption system. You begin each route with enough fuel to complete the delivery — assuming your crew performs adequately. Unfortunately, every unresolved malfunction increases fuel consumption. Let enough systems fail, and your delivery will become financially unviable. And so will you. Repair systems quickly, manage priorities, and keep the ship operational long enough to reach your destination.
