"Two snipers on the hills, we can't afford close-range backup, so they'll just have to run if they are approached. One for the frontal diversion, once the sniper bullets start raining they will be disordered if we get it right. With 7 mechs, that leaves four for the rear assault. With four mechs hitting their back, we should have a pretty good chance. How does that sound?"

"ill go with xect's idea. Ill have have to make sure that my sensors are up top notch"

"I guess we attack when the tanks go in to the garage."

xect · February 2004

"Might attack while they are in the garage. But we shouldn't count on it. I say we observe them and see if they really go in there. If they do, we'll surround them and take them out in the confusion. If not, we follow my plan."

343_guilty_spark · February 2004

"So we finished here ?"

P-Khan · February 2004

"Well, I like the idea. We can have the snipers and an LMG on the hills. Snipers could attack with presision, and the LMg could just send in a rain of bullets, causing confusion. The assault team would attack from behind. The turrets probably won't see them, becasue of the confusion, so you guys should have a chance to take them out carefully."

xect · February 2004

"Guess we are. Just one question left, the essential and all-governing one: what's in it for us? What's the pay?"

343_guilty_spark · February 2004

"The standard going rate, 1000, so if you are finished then you are dismissed, you will move out at 1030 hours."

Bill_Door · February 2004

"Sounds like enough for me, barely."

xect · February 2004

"Ah well, guess that works, if it's really as lightly defended as you say."

*Leaves the room, and goes to check on the status of the mech. [checks engines, hull and mechanics routinely].*

ZeroByte · February 2004

"Hey, if Xect's in, I'm in"

*He walks out of the briefing room and heads to the barracks to spend time with his computer*

Bill_Door · February 2004

*Heads over to the hanger to check over mech. When I arrive I say to myself "I almost miss being in a tank... The camaradery of four people, all living and fighting together... The ability to perform our own maitenance on our own machine... I knew the tank better than I know myself... But meh, times change. Its better to accept that than to try and fight it."*

343_guilty_spark · February 2004

All the mechs are in top shape.

"Dunno about you guys but im going for some food first then bed."
*Goes of to the canteen for some food.*

xect · February 2004

"Guess that sounds like a good idea. Just not getting this "off-duty" thing. I mean, why can't they just do like everyone else and call a job a job, and let us decide what we do with the rest of ourselves now. Oh damn, could really do with a drink and an evening off."

Demiguise · February 2004

*clambers into his mech to make sure that all systems are operational and moves his mech to the Gate*

Bill_Door · February 2004

"I'd guess its to try and keep opsec (operational security). Its still annoying though..."
*heads to the canteen and gets food*

xect · February 2004

"Operational security my ***. As far as I know, operational security means getting the job done. Of cause, if they have the habit of hiring people they don't trust, I can see why they're in trouble."

*Gets food and begins eating*

Demiguise · February 2004

*after settling his mech in the forward gate, he jumps down and joins the rest of the crew for some well earned lunch*

P-Khan · February 2004

*goes to the canteen and grabs a plate of noodles*
"Anyone knows how much is a survival kit? Like, with the first-aids and with a gun? I'd really like that...."
*sits down and starts eating*

343_guilty_spark · February 2004

"When we got off duty i guess we coudl go to the nearby ranch and buy some stuff with our hard earned money."
*Eats his food.*

Demiguise · February 2004

"i wonder what they got"

Bill_Door · February 2004

*eats, listening into the conversation*

Nuub · February 2004

*Wakes up from the yard realising everyone else is in canteen.
"Oops, seems like i fell a sleep."
*Heads to the canteen to get some food*

343_guilty_spark · February 2004

*He finishes his meal and looks around, not seeing anything interesting he goes back to the barracks and has a wash before going early to bed.*

Bill_Door · February 2004

*Finishes meal, and goes to check on my mech again. Heads off to sleep*

P-Khan · February 2004

*Finishes up meal and goes to bed*
"Gotta wake up early"
*goes to bed and falls asleep*

xect · February 2004

"Gah, better get to bed early then, nothing to do at this hole."

xect · February 2004

hey Spark, this thing is dying. I think you might want to progress the story now, since it's quite hard for us to do much with sleeping characters.

DO THE TIME WARP !

[You all go to bed nervous about the following mission. Your all rudely awaken by the alarm signalling its time to get up and fight.]

"Fecking A why did i sign up ?"
*Gets out of bed and looks around, he goes for a shower and dresses recalling all the plans and manuvoes he has learnt in training as he waits for the others.*

xect · February 2004

"Oh my, that's another of those things that makes me wish I had stayed out of this place. Still, they pay me better than most other places."

*Gets up and goes whereever he's supposed to go"
