This is a good increase to our numbers.

Personally I prefer guarding the hyperlane. I don't think we should dive into the unknown on our own yet, the risk is too great with our still small numbers, and guarding increases our exp gain.

I don't think we'd be risking many of our people; probably one Jedi pilot (because navigating unknown hyperspace without Force-provided danger sense is practically suicidal) and some hired support staff per freighter, and we definitely wouldn't risk our masters that way. Still, it is a genuine concern. And the added political points from catching pirates and slavers and smugglers would be nice.

I guess I like the idea of an explorer corp because it's interesting. Who knows what useful and incredible stuff we might find, inhabitable planets only we know the route to being the least among them. Or even just early warning of threats would be good before they surprise us.

I'd like that too, just not yet. And we must remember that Republic does have its own Exploration Corp.

I recall reading somewhere that exploration for new hyperlanes is mostly done by droid-only ships because the survival odds of blind jumps aren't good. Although I could see a Republic exploration corp that was more about surveying places after the automated exploration vessels found a safe way there, that would make sense.

Thanks to precognition the Jedi are probably uniquely suited to finding safe paths and interesting places.

I don't know if we'll get a chance to institute one later. @Voikirium, is it possible a Jedi Exploration Corp could be made into a future PP purchase, sort of like the offices of Scoutmaster/Battlemaster/etc were?

Come to think of it, we don't have a Jedi Starfighter Corp, Medicorps, or Agricorps either. Those might be things we might want to found at some point.

So if we start the Jedi Trade Federation, do we get ludicrously fancy hats btw? Asking for... reasons. :V

I'm not sure about that, since according to the Essential Atlas it seems that lot of the space explorers, or spacers, are organics. It is just a slow job with having to use lot of small jumps to chart the space and keep your star charts up-to-date. And of course, dangerous, but with possibility of great riches.

The Great Hyperspace War did start when two Republic spacers stumbled on Korriban.

Wish I could remember where I read it. Eh, wouldn't be the first time different Star Wars resources were inconsistent.

[X] Use the Freighters to Guard the Hyperlanes

I have never heard of the freighter class we have, but I'm assuming they don't have actual weapons. So they'll be used more as decoys and traps than actually running around and chasing pirates, right?
 
[X] Use the Freighters to Guard the Hyperlanes: Pirates have taken the chaos of the past few decades as an opportunity to sprout like weeds anywhere the authorities aren't paying attention. Actively send out your freighters to pry them away. (+20 PP a Year for risk, increased experience rate for Jedi, may contribute 1 Tiny Paramilitary Fleet to Republic Armada in times of crisis)

While there's a risk to this the increased experience rate means more jedi faster something I will always go for.

They are pretty heavily armed for freighters, pretty analogous to the YZ-900 of the Rebellion era.
 
I'm going to buck the trend, because I want to see what we find and I suspect that we'll get bigger PP rewards or even better things for the increased risk.

[X] Jedi Explorers?

Jedi should do what they can to not be a specialized wing of the Republic Military. We don't want to be cops and we don't want to be soldiers. They should be guarding the hyperlanes with their proper war ships, we should be doing Jedi shit with our dinky freighters.
