[X] Threaten The Arslans.

On another note, this would certainly heighten tensions up significantly. Provided we make it back to the sector capital, it might even mean that we have just sparked off the civil war.

We just killed some of the heirs and shined a light on treason to take down the Imperial family - would that mean a war now?

The plotters have a better chance of acting now than waiting for the Empress to rebuild the fleet surely?

[X] Parole Ranca

YYYYYEEEESSSSS!!! stupid bitch is dead!!! she should have surrendered, then she could have worked from the shadows to undermine us, but nope...she had to do this.
 
II am absolutely shocked that nobody is taking the duel her personally option! It is only about a 75 percent chance of losing. Where is the insane optimism and risk taking?
Are we a Solar Exalt yet?

No?

[] Send Ranca

Edit : late to the Party.

Edit2 : What to do... What to do... (Outside of burning political capital to help out our murderwaifu once this is done and if the problem does not disappear)

[X] Arrest Ranca. She has just committed a crime in killing an Imperial Shareholder, even if it was in a fair duel. She needs to be held in the brig until she can be put on trial upon the return to Ilam.
 
[X] Threaten The Arslans. Ranca has just literally cut off the head of their leadership, pointedly accept this then inform the senior officers of the heavy cruisers that they are now under your command whilst she stands looking worryingly pleased with herself at your side.

We need those cruisers to continue the plan to take the coming battleships. The remaining Arslan crew need to obey our orders and Ranca just crippled their person with the highest prowess in less then a minute and killed the person who refused to accept our victory in 2 blows right afterward. Everyone needs to know she is by our side if anything like this happens again.

In addition to that I'm not going to admit any guilt or wrongdoing over the Viscountess dying. First there was breaking with our plan for the initial combat, then the conduct unbecoming an officer in refusing surrender of cadets, then the treasonous offer we challenged her over and finally her refusal to abide by the terms of the duel after she lost. We have more then enough justification to stand up to scrutiny from the Governor or Fleet Command. That plus her actions could have ruined our plan to take 3 NASP battleships for the Imperium which is a big deal given how badly the Imperium needs them.

Even if this turns out to be a bad move politically, having the strike cruisers on our side when it comes to the battleships may just let us get away with it.
 
We're really going to have to get Ranca to ease off on killing people in duels. On the other had the blades they seem to use in these duels seem to be the equivalent of Warhammer 40K power swords which cut through power armour with little resistance.
What are you talking about? I think she is a massive underachiever in the whole murder department. Why, there have to be eighteen... maybe even nineteen hours a day in which she isn't murdering someone. The girl has got to step up to the plate here.

How to we increase her ability to function as a humanoid cuisinart? That is the question I want an answer to.

I'm fantasizing about her decked out like General Grievous and its amazing.

A Civil War can be quite profitable if you're on the winning side. If the Imperial family wins, they'll need to redistribute all those shares and worlds formerly held by the treasonous ducal houses.
 
[X] Parole Ranca. Whilst she has technically committed a crime, Ranca is a serving officer and you need her. Have her on parole and 'confined to the ship', not that this will be an issue.

Dual-wielding is shit.
