Fiction:
Mon Calamari habitation blocks are being lowered around Tythas City's terraformer from orbit. The latest hab block is a particularly tricky one. There have been several malfunctions on the hab before de-orbit, but the engineers have made sure that these are fixed as far as they can tell. Housemates are already calling it the bad luck hab.
As it starts its orbital descent, already in the atmosphere, something goes awry. Several malfunctioning thrusters veer the hab off course, threatening to knock it into the new terraformer. Your character/s and a team of engineers, soldiers and scientists are on the hab block and must rectify the issue any way you know how.
How will things go wrong? Will you manage to fix the issue?
