Had a wonderful idea for humor during the actual invasion of Port Krin. When XCOM forces arrive, they send their jumpships in first. Vorax, seeing the jumpships, assumes they were sent by Frankenstein to deliver the first load of loot. The dropships land, and someone, maybe a turned MechWarrior, sends word to Vorax to "come see all the shit we brought back!" Vorax, his good sense overwhelmed by greed, personally goes to meet the dropships, and heads into one of the cargo bays. However, the sounds of dozens of rifles being cocked stops him in his tracks.

"Adrien Vorax, you are under arrest for attempted slavery, trafficking in stolen goods, aiding and abetting murder, and conspiracy to commit piracy."

Sadly, this is likely coming far to late to actually be included in the story.

I don't think this will work...

1st, a lot of dropships are missing, including the command ship (the overlord)... this will make Vorax suspicious what has happened.
2nd, it take days to get from the jumppoint to the planet... lots of time for radio communication, so this "you have to see this in person" sounds strange.
3rd, people like Vorax did not got to their place by being stupid... he will not come out in person just to look at some random jumper with important loot.

And yes, I think its too late for this anyways...
