Is it possible to offer PC Ronin a position as retainer by having a high enough status and investing XP/advantages?

You would need a Gentry to have personal retainers - as Gentry would generate income that would let you pay for their upkeep. You might be able to offer ronin a chance to swear fealty to your clan by having them travel (with Writs of Travel) to one of your clan's holdings.

What do you even mean with this?

Gear from some extra-planetary holdings? No.

Gear listed in your embassy as 'resources'? Yes, that is very much the point. That you can give people something besides money.

I'm assuming with us focusing on the command module there's probably no way for Use Computer to help with figuring out what happened in the garden. Is there anything to be gleamed by Investigation? Or was the failed Engineering roll the one shot at it.
