Last year you were just an ordinary bum on the street, but then the planetary government went and conscripted you into their exploration service. After a six month training program you are ready. You get given your assignment, find a rare metal, rumored to exist on a distant planet, and bring it back. But, right before you set out, you learn that the governments of other planets as well as space pirates are also after this metal, you must beat them to it.

Earth destroyed itself in a nuclear war, which is why so many planets were colonized, and inflation isn't as bad as back then.

I get into contact with my new employers. "This is Ludwig Von Heichner. I've been granted, by the communist government, an embassy. However, popularity for ambassadors isn't exactly at an all-time high. Should I wait for gaurds or continue with my mission with what I've got?"

They receive your hail and tell you that they can't afford to send guards (they get killed) and the locals have a tendency to attack, so you might want to set a watch schedule for you and your allies. It is early evening, and your predecessor got mugged when he tried to do something after dark. What do you do?

I'll wait for the early morning then. Less likely to get mugged in direct sunlight. Zago will watch out for anyone with so much as a brick coming at us. Keer will go after Zago.

Argon refuses to let you go alone after last night. He brings an assault rifle and accompanies you into the caves. You discover the zergling nest, but they know you are nearby. Argon has some grenade, at 10 chips apiece. Similar to the thermal detnatal Boushh (leia) threatened jabba with.

He tinkles with it a little, and then holds up a rifle and a question mark. What do you do?

Keer wakes you up and you head for your shift. All is going well until about a half-hour until dawn, when two dozen people with knives and pistols and throwing rocks. What do you do?
