"The Blueraker Project promises to unveil the secrets of the wild Blue, reveal the far reaches to the world, and truly establish Imperial superiority in these simmering times. Bluerakers One until Four have failed.
There is no room for Five to follow its predecessors as the vultures circle: Blackthorn Park, the Charterhall Two, even our erstwhile allies the Anixis Field Unit. Extensive and exacting analysis from Brainwave-60, the Ministry of Discovery’s experimental sparkmind, has revealed the involvement of an agent known only as Hart. Initial predictive algorithms suggest that trading patterns through the Three Queens have diverted important resources to wherever Hart’s operation is headquartered on Red Queen Island.
For your own reasons, be as they might, you have your objective: find Hart, end whatever they’re doing to interfere in Blueraker, and enjoy the successful launch."

Blades '68: The Pingus Affair
Dr. Stefano Pingus has invented a radical new sparkcraft engine, the Mark X Cork, but nobody wants to buy it. He's been reduced to offering it to Rajan Ankhayat to settle his gambling debts. Rajan wants to gift the engine to his sister Talya, noted autopod racer, at her birthday party at the Ankhayat Autodrome and on the family yacht, The Mumtaz.
Akorosi and Skovlan intelligence is aware that the Ankhayat family want to regain control of their native Iruvia, and that Dr. Pingus' invention is useless for autopod racing but useful for all sorts of other military applications. It's up to the PCs to stop Dr. Pingus from completing the sale of the Mark X Cork engine to Rajan Ankhayat.
But the PCs have their own connections to the Ankhayat family that could jeapordize the mission.
It all comes to a head in... The Pingus Affair.
