Description

Assist in calibrating the military omni-reality games.

Start: Side Jobs, Ross 154 Jump Gate

Introduction

You have a job: Wargame Calibrations, accepted at Ross 154 Jump Gate in the Ross 154 system.

Proceed to the Stadium (Decommissioned Area) on the Ross 154 Jump Gate.

Next area: Decommissioned Area, Ross 154 Jump Gate

  • Enter the Omni Reality Wargames arena.

After validating your apparently updated security clearance, a bored looking cadet standing guard lets you into the Wargames area of the arena. You note that you are conspicuously alone here. After a moment, a notification asks your permission to interface with your CORETECHS via the local Omni Reality Engine. You accept, and immediately the arena springs to dazzling life!

Neon colors wash over your field of view as augmented reality washes over the more mundane background. The ceiling is suddenly a sky bathed in stars and Aurora Borealis while the floor of the arena is covered in various holographic hazards like lava and strange energy vortexes.

  • Calibrate a challenge.

(Intelligence check)

A fanfare sounds within your CORETECHS and suddenly the hologramatic 'lava' begins to rise and flow around the arena. A group of safe zones with force-fields of varying levels of integrity seem to indicate a pattern to follow to remain safe from the lava. You imagine this would be much harder with opponents on the field but you manage to survive long enough for the system to declare itself calibrated.

  • Activate the second challenge.

(Agility check)

The floor suddenly seems to fall away leaving you standing on an 'island'. The area all around is a mirror of the sky with a series of further islands leading to the exit. Doing your best to ignore the dizzying effect all around, you hop from island to island and reach the goal. A triumphant fanfare declares this challenge calibrated.

  • Activate the final challenge.

(Stamina check)

The final challenge seems to be one of endurance. What appears to be an intergalactic race-course appears at your feet with intermittent hazards at random intervals. You run along it for what seems like an age, skirting around miniature black holes and bizarre looking space creatures until, finally, a fanfare once again declares the system calibrated.

A moment later your CORETECHS notifies you that your contract has been fulfilled and that credits have been uploaded to your CORETECHS. The bored looking cadet arrives to escort you out of the arena.

Congratulations!

You have completed the 'Wargame Calibrations' job.

You have received 61.00 credits.
