Arrival in Walston:

• Upon arrival in Walston, the Travellers were dropped off at the Low Port. Captain Frost gathered information by asking around in local bars, learning about a mercenary group operating near the Old Scout Base to the west which had been decommissioned at the outset of the Forth Frontier war decades ago.
  

Investigations:

• 1st Officer T inquired about ship sightings on the streets, confirming reports of odd ships entering the atmosphere to the west periodically.
  
• Engineer Spuds sought out parts at the starport, receiving a potential lead from a local mechanic named Leath regarding a supplier for components specific to the Havoc.
  

Rental and Contact:

• The Travellers rented an Air Raft to reach the Old Scout Base. Leath contacted Spuds, indicating a two-week delay for his contacts to aquire the part requested, stating he mentioned somthing about needing to aqquire better tools.

Discovery and Exploration:

• While approaching the base, the Travellers observed a spheroid ship taking off.
• Upon investigation, they found the Havoc in a state of partial disassembly alongside three Suleiman Scouts, evidently scavenged for parts. The base appeared deserted.
• It took a little under a day to make the Havoc spaceworthy again, after which the Travellers refueled and performed a J-4 jump back to Flammarion.
  

Date: Imperial Calendar 120 - 1107

Drafted for War:

• Upon their return to Flammarion, the Travellers were promptly drafted by the Third Imperium as tensions rose in anticipation of the Fifth Frontier War.
  

Conclusion:

The first session saw the Travellers successfully locate and retrieve the I.I.S.S. Havoc from the Old Scout Base in Walston, overcoming challenges and gathering valuable intelligence along the way. Their swift actions and resourcefulness bode well for future adventures in the Spinward Marches Sector.
