Transhipment Point Theahtus
From UTRPG
Transhipment Point Theahtus is an asteroid which can be found in the same system as THX-1138 and so is under the thumb of the tech-priests, especially a (supposedly) heretical arch-primate. Group 57 passed through there on their way to kill said heretic.
The plan was for half the group (Darl, Mythos and Adalaise) to remain there with their giant walker and use it to ambush the heretic when he came to visit. The rest of the group would lure the heretic to the perfect ambush spot. Naturally, this required a low profile.
Malboch accepted being shot as part of an arms transaction, which fortunately did not draw the attention of the law.
The half of the group on the asteroid attempted to move the walker to a "hidden location" but this created an armed response from the local cops. They were arrested and their identities exposed, but the group was released when their credentials were shown to be good. The group feared they'd be watched by the cops, and that was partially correct. Their records also ended up in the system.
The group rented a warehouse, an activity which unfortunately required more money than they had. They struck a deal; they'd pay a percentage up front, and pay the rest later. Since the group planned on running away it wasn't a good deal for the broker.
Desperate for money to buy heavy weapons, the group made a deal with an arms dealer; break the legs of some guy who owed him money, and he'd sell them a couple of krak grenades. Despite carrying out the job (semi-successfully; they didn't get the money) they ended up going into debt with him with a ruinous rate of interest. Again, the group had bigger things to worry about...
The group reunited and killed the heretic. The cops didn't stop them, as there was a Space Marine about, a demonic infestation, the presence of said high-ranking heretic, and a nuclear explosion... the group fervently hopes they don't have to go back, but the demonic infestation probably means they need to investigate further before calling for exterminatus.
