Admittedly, that is a very narrow profile, though there are a lot of peons and trustees on the <span class="mu-i">Commissioner</span>.
And then – once you find these paragons, how are you going to convince them that you are not just some nut, or a company plant trying to get them to implicate themselves and extend their sentence? The obvious answer to that is showing them an operational and charged hand-lance … but that means you have to get the lance on to the <span class="mu-i">Commissioner</span> – which is no mean feat. If you intend to go pirate, then at some point, you are going to have to get the weapons on board, of course but … doing that by yourself is going to be pretty damn tricky. Wreckers are searched when they return from the boneyard – a cursory pat down and walk through a metal detector. Working your way around that is going to be your first challenge … unless you want to try to drum up co-conspirators without showing them the lance, which seems less like to net worthwhile men … unless you were to do something to give yourself some notoriety. There is also a middle ground for this one – if you were to only recruit wreckers, or at least only recruit wreckers at first, then you could show them the weapons when you were both out in the boneyard. That would save you the trouble of having to get the hand-lance into the <span class="mu-i">Commissioner</span>, at least for the immediate future – and a team of wreckers can do a lot of damage, if they put their minds to it.
But the upside of recruiting wreckers is also a downside; they are already in the boneyard. To everyone and anyone else aboard the <span class="mu-i">Commissioner</span>, those weapons would be well and truly out of their reach. But with a wrecker, who is out in the boneyard daily … if they knew about the existence of the lances, then there is a real risk that they might decide to steal them for themselves.
As you continue to crack open the filters and recover more and more lance parts, you come to a realization – if you are unsure of which course to take, then there is nothing that says you can’t work towards both plans up until a point where you had to choose one or the other. As to where that point might actually be, that remains to be seen – as well as how much of a pain it is going to be to run two schemes simultaneously. But it would be the best way to keep your options open ... if you really weren't
