A Couple Decent Adventure Seeds in this Real World Event

The below newspaper article about a RL Russian cargo ship could easily be adapted to a Trav scenario with the PCs on either side:

Daang.

That is a heck of a scenario.

And the commentators are perfect incidental characters.

Well ahead of you...

What gang in the Imperium highjacked the Tukera Lines LIC freighter heading to Mora all fingers are pointing to Oberlines. A hired crack squad from Tukera (PCs) have been hired to find out. The ship is discovered adrift well off its projected flight plan...

Why then is there a Zhodani commando ship attempting docking? What really is in the cargo hold. Why is the Imperial Navy trying to keep this whole thing hushed up and even cooperating with the Zhodani. Why were the jump tapes mysteriously wiped along with the flight plan. Who is that Vargr Captain with a Droyne crew claiming bounty/prize. Where was the ship really heading?

Come join me on Oct 15th...or so, I will even put you up in my basement (free food) in exchange a pint and endless Traveller discussion.

It is not possible for me.
Maybe another time.

No problem...one of these days, I will head over to Sweden and maybe we can hook up then...but first Italy awaits next year. If I finish writing it...rather than winging it...I will post the details here.
