Geocache Description:


A long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away the Rebel Alliance was under seige from the Dark forces of the Galactic Empire.  The vastly outnumbered and outgunned Rebels only hope at resistance lies with a small band of exceptional heroes.  It won't be easy but team can achieve victory by using TEAMWORK, INTELLECT, TECHNOLOGY, BRAVERY, AND COLLABORATION!  There will be many challenges ahead, remain dillegent and THE FORCE will guide you.

 

After leaving the planet Chargain the Millennim Falcon was intercepted by a Star Destroyer and a fleet of TIE Fighters.  There is only one way the crew is going to get out of this mess alive.  The group must split into two teams.  One group must man the weapons and fight off the unrelenting TIE Fighter assault.  The second group will need to manage the navigation system and bring the hyper drive online in order to get the Millenium Falcon out of this mess.  Both missions are equally important and neither group can succeed without the other.  Good Luck Warriors!

MISSION BASICS:

  • This mission has been planned out to be completed by a team of AT LEAST two!
  • (The completion of this mission with a team of one would be HIGHLY time consuming
    and entail many miles of travel.)
  • The team should be split into two groups: Weapons and Navigation
    Communications between teams is REQUIRED. (ie: Radio, Phone, Carrier Wave...)
  • Team(s) should include at least one "Electronic Navigation Specialist"
    Equipped with computational device highly desired
  • Both teams will require GPSr support equipment
  • At each point you will need to pass information to the other team
  • There is a lot of basic math involved, double check your solutions.
  • Take water
  • Read through the missions and be prepared.
  • Equipment Suggestion: GPSr, Commo, Paper, Writing Device, Calculator, Compass.
  • If you find yourself at a location that does not makes sense, double check your data and math.
  • All math results in WHOLE numbers. If you get a DECIMAL in your answer, check your data and math.

MISSIONS: (PAY STRICT ATTENTION TO THE INSTRUCTIONS)

Both Teams will meet at the published coords.  Once  you are here you should quickly discover a six digit number.  The weapons team will use the first two digits, this will be AA.  The navigation team will use the 4th digit, this will be B.  In order for each team to find their first stage solve the following:

Note – For all problems the use of XXX and YYY denotes coords from your current stage. 

Weapons Team) N 32 25.(XXX-AA)+12 W 081 45.(YYY)-(AA*3)-1

Navigation Team) N 32 25.((XXX)+35B)+B-1 W 081 45.((YYY)+15B)+3

Weapons Team Stage 1) At Stage one you will come across an informational sign.  In the bottom right corner you will see an animal prominently displayed.  How many letters are in this animal’s name?  This is C.  You need to pass C on to the Navigation team.  Once you have given the Navigation team their information they should pass you the solution to D.  Use D to solve the following to reach Stage 2.  N 32 25.((XXX)+(27*D))+6 W 081 45.YYY-D

Weapons Team Stage 2) At this stage you should be able to locate a single yellow number.  This is E, you will need to pass E on to the Navigation team.  Once you have provided the Navigation team with their clue they should inform you of the value of F.  Use F to solve the following: N 32 25.((XXX)+40*F)+2 W 081 45.((YYY)+(15*F))+2

Weapons Team Stage 3) When you arrive at this stage you will be looking for a hidden micro container.  Inside you will discover a number.  This number is G.  Once you have identified G pass it on to the Navigation team.  The Navigation team will then give you the solution to H which you will use to solve the following.  N 32 26.(XXX-(24*H))-1 W 081 45.((YYY)-12*H)-6

Navigation Team Stage 1) At stage one you will come across a spot boring micros go to die.  Once you find the micro take note of the clue this will be D.  You need to pass D on to the Weapons team.  After the Weapons team send you the solution to C you will need to solve the following to reach stage 2.  N 32 26.(XXX-105*C)-3 W 081 45.(YYY+45*C)+4.

Navigation Team Stage 2) At Stage two you should find a sewer.  In the middle you will find two letters.  Add their alpha-numeric value to find F.  Once you have F pass it on to the Weapons team.  The weapons team should be providing you with E so that you can solve the following: (N 32 27.XXX-2.5*E) W 081 45.YYY-(72*E)-1

Navigation Team Stage 3) At stage three you will find a street sign with 6 signs attached to a single pole.  Count how many stickers there are on the back and this will be H.  The weapons team should give  you the solution to G which you will use to solve the following: N 032 26.(XXX+500)+(33*G) W 081 45.YYY-(32*G)

MEET UP:  Both teams should have reached the meetup location now.  You will combine all your clues to be able to solve for the final coordinates.  AA+B+C+D+E+F+G+H=Z

N 32 26.(4*Z+19) W 081 45.(3*Z+41)
