>>>>>[Hoi chummers, I got a call a minute ago for another job. I need a
crew.


Details: Ares Macrotech. agreed with an anynomous collector to fund a exhibit
at the metropolitan displaying artifacts that were supposedly uncovered in a
dig in China. Clintcher, the dig uncovered Xanadu (yes, the Xanadu). The
discovery was being kept secret until the exhibit was set up. Several very
important artifacts (i.e. a golden horn, and two ruby orbs) were secretly
being transported by way of an ordinary looking Ares Macrotech parts delivery
truck. Inside, 5 special ops agents. The 5 ton safe was covered with standard
Ares parts. Top secret mission. The delivery was scheduled for 4 am. At 3:41 am
the truck was ambushed by two squads of black clad assasins. The agents killed
, the truck seized. Interestingly enough, the safe was blown and the artifacts
whisked away in one direction, while the truck was taken in another.


Basicly, Ares is in deep drek. The "Collector" is obviously someone important.
They need the artifacts back ASAP. They'll pay 5,000 ny a day AND medical. In
a extremely hotly negotiated session my fixer also got us our choice of: A.
having the PaYen in Ultra Grade scripp (i.e. you can use this stuff to buy
ANYTHING Ares makes, regardless of the usual restrictions - even from their
Milspec line) or redeem the scripp for the use of a Ares terminal at level
Alpha-3 clearence at 10,000 ny per hour (I know its not Alpha-1 or 2, but only
the COB, Pres, and senior VPs get that). So what do you say chummers. I need
an answer quick. They gave me a 24 hour deadline for response.]<<<<<
