Neither are advertising for "apprentices", to teach them the skill, but "assistants", who can immediately be put to work on the job.<br /><br />Wanted: Mercenary with training experience to organize, equip, train, and lead a small planetary constabulary against what appears to be a well-organized poaching ring. Must have training skills and experience, knowledge of Low Tech weaponry, good outdoor skills, and some experience commanding troops. Preferably from a Tech Level 8 or lower planet, must be willing to work within possible Tech Level constraints with respect to weapons.<br /><br />Wanted: Skilled small boat builder, with expertise in wooden nautical vessel construction, and Low Tech power plants. Knowledge and skill with Tech Level 3 power plants and sailing are greatly desired. Must show ability to build and operate a 10 to 20 meter wooden vessel equipped with either sails or early steam power plant. Metal working knowledge would be a very large plus as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
