I wonder what would happen if we detonated an EMP underwater... would that fry their life support?

Not likely.
The Life Support is one of the most well insulated and protected parts of a ship. It would probably be shielded against EMP.
Even if it did go offline, a sealed suit of Mandalorian Armor has between 5-10 hours of air + whatever the Life Support kicked out before she burned out.
Thats plenty of time to jury rig a solution.

Depth Charges are only a solution if I know he's there and his general location.
I have neither. Plus I'm not on Mintooine, so i can't do anything about it. I was merely asking about it in theory.

stellarmagic Two words EK... Depth Charges. Yep. Depth Charges. Just ******** the UNDERWATER SHIPYARDS and the QUARREN CITIES which are also UNDERWATER. They don't matter.

Yes... yes... blowing up your own cities is a bad thing.
Active Sonar. No matter how stealthy that boat is...
Ping... Ping... Ping...
Eventually...
Ping... Ping... Pong...
You'll get a hit.
To think the Free Dac don't have passive and active sonar stations for security around their shipyards. Of course even knowing where they are you'd still have a real fight on your hands, Mandos are tough fighters and raid tactics are just about in their blood.

Because I made the joke that, now I had Mandalorian Submariners, no one is safe.
Then you threatened me with EMPs and Stellar suggested Depth Charges, both ideas I found viable problems with, and so on.

It wasn't so much as a threat as me wondering out loud. I mean, I'm not even at Mintooine, so I can't do anything about what you do.

Never thought you would.
What data is this anyway? Or is that to be released later?

Its pretty obvious what I want if you've been paying attention.
The Data I want is all the engineering specs, blueprints, and schematics on a ship model that used to be produced by Free Dac. It was a little known ship produced in limited quantities late in the war, of which only one is still operational at the time the RP is set. Alot of data was lost when Pammant was blown up, so this is the backup data which Free Dac had largely forgotten about given recent developments.
Its the schematics for the Akula Class Hunter-Killer Corvette.
