Now I can put all 3 teams in seperate threads or keep it all here.  Seperate thread is less confusing but it means you don't get to see what the others are up to (OOC at least).  I'll leave it in one thread unless I hear an overwhelming majority request seperate groups.

Nirro nods to the Commander and prepares to follow Jaime to their first objective.

Allen steps up behind the commander, comforted by the nice weight of the blaster rifle in his backpack and his pistol on his hip.

"Yes Sir," Jamie said, hefting his gear.    He patted himself down systematically, a last check to make sure he wasn't forgetting anything.  His hands stopped most dramatically at his pistol, which he then set to stun.
"Good hunting, fellows, and may we all return in one healthy piece!  Nirro, Cyril, let's head out.  Set your weapons to stun, please; I'd rather not end any lives today."

Allen reluctantly but dutifully pulled out his pistol, then set it to stun.

Nirro sets his weapon to stun and follows his team leader.

At the commander's order Xil merely nods and moves off to enter the building.  Once inside he heads to the roof and begins setting up his rifle for the task ahead.  He also ties his rope to a suitable spot should he need to make a fast escape.

Once it is all set up he checks his rifle and his scope.  Whilst he preferred thermo it might be difficult to sort friend from foe so he made sure his low-light worked as well.

Determined not to be seen Jamie's group gives the base a wide berth as they make their way to the rear side of the complex.  All is quiet as they approach the walls.  The area is dark.  No light source is close enough to shine on this area of the fence which was both a benefit and hinderance to the team.  No noises could be heard within the facility at this time.

It all seemed too easy.  There was still the proximity sensors to deal with.

Trailing along behind Allen, Devon clicked his blaster pistol over to stun; but left the carbine (swinging from its shoulder strap) on its more lethal setting - hopefully he wouldn't have to use it.  But it was nice to know it was there and ready, all the same...

Mark listened to Jamie's order for the stun setting but made no comment.  If that's how Jamie wanted to run his team that was fine.  He planned to take no such precautions himself however.  Whilst his blaster pistol in its holster was set to stun, he made sure his carbine was set to kill.   If trouble started he was not messing around.  He'd use his pistol for close in work.  If trouble started he'd use his carbine.

He waited as patiently as he could for Jamie's team to signal they were in.

Nirro was nervous as he approached the fence but he had full confidence in his ability to mess around with computer systems. It was what he did after all. Growing up he had plenty of practice in jamming stuff and breaking into places, but it all had been for kicks. Now he was playing for keeps. Once they got back around to the back of the base, Nirro kneeled in the shadows and whispered to his teamates.


While speaking to his teamates his face shows nothing of his earlier nervousness. He is now fully in his element and concentrating on the Mission.

Cyril remained silent as he'd followed Jamie and Nirro.  He knew his part in this wouldn't come until after they got inside.  He followed along saying nothing and remained behind his two team mates as they moved around the back.

Jamie passed one grappling spike launcher and one cable dispenser reload each to Nirro and Cyril.

Nirro pulled out his security kit and took out the jammer. He switched it on and fiddled with the controls a little bit to get it to the right frequency. Once the jammer knocked out the sensors he would signal to Jaime and then get to the fence using the the grappling strike launcher to go over the fence as quickle as  he was able.

Nirro moves in and quickly sets to work on the sensors.  It takes very little time for him to give Jamie a thumbs-up and Cyril and Jamie run forward.  Three ascension guns fire in unison.

The launchers fire flawlessly and jam into the wall less than a metre from the top of the wall.  Allowing the launchers to pull them up to the top, the trio then grabbed on to the ledge and attempted to pull themslves over.  Whilst a seemingly easy task when looking from the ground, when dangling 10 metres off the ground the distance looked more formidable, especially in the dark.

Cyril manages the feat flawlessly, swinging up onto the wall.   Jamie is less elegant as one hand slips and he nearly falls.  Sheer strength plus a helping hand from Cyril has the demolitions expert up on the wall.  Nirro's foot slips on an uneven section of wall and the slicer falls to the ground with a thump.

Shaken but not seriously injured, Nirro quickly shook himself off and checked his gear.  Finding nothing broken he crept over and fired again.  This time, with the aid of his comrades, he made it over without incident.  Hearing nothing from inside that might suggest a patrol coming, Nirro turned off the jammer and the trio carefully lowered themselves into the compound.

They found themselves at the north end of the compound, a building right before them.  According the layout the doctor gave them, this was the communications and control building.  The door in was on the south side which meant the group would have to move into the open to get to it.  To the west they could see the barracks.  To the east and slightly south the lights of the hanger were visible.

So far there were no guards to be seen.

"I love these guns.  They do almost all the work for you," Jamie whispered as he lowered himself to the ground.  He immediately drew his pistol and took a good look at the compound.
Nirro, you keep an eye on the barracks and let us know if anything happens over there.  Cyril, you keep an eye on the walls.  I'll watch for patrols.  Keep close to physical cover, and remember Trandoshans can see in the dark.  Our first objective is to get inside this building here.  If we encounter a fight, Nirro, I want you to immediately alert the others.  Let's go.
Jamie moves slowly and quietly toward the back side of the building, watching for patrols.  Once against the back of the comm building, he would edge around toward the front.

Nirro heads to the back of the building and takes advantage of the cover that the shadows provided to keep as much out of sight as possible. He keeps an eye on the door to the barracks to see if he see anything come out of it.

Jamie's Team

The trio moves slowly around the edge of the wall.  Moving around to the door of C&C leaves them with their back to the landing pad and security station.  Whilst there were no guards currently visible it left them horrible exposed.  With a quick gesture from Jamie, Nirro attempted the Doctor's swipe card on the door but it did not work.  Nonplussed, Nirro pulled out his security kit and began working on the door.

Jamie and Cyril kneeled down beside him, watching for any sign of trouble.

After a minute or two of hotwiring the door suddenly left out a mildly audible beep and turned green.  The trio jumped as the silence of the night made the noise sound like a siren to them.

"Nice work," Jamie whispered, adjusting his nightvision goggles and giving the room a once-over before stepping inside, blaster raised and ready for action.
Anyone home?

Niroo packs up his security kit and heads inside the comm building. He will move as quickly as he can to find a security terminal. Once there he will check the logs to see if there is anything to indicate they have been detected.

As the door opens Jamie blinks momentarily to the bright lights inside.  He blinks away the brighteness and he beholds the situation before him.  There are two Trandoshans in the room.  One was madly typing into a computer with more energy than someone should at this time of the morning.  The second one had clearly just stood up in a hurry and was pulling a blaster pistol from a hip holster.  Clearly they'd worked out something was wrong only moments before the group entered.



OOC:  Despite the trandoshans somehow being alerted to your presence you guys get the suprise round.  However as Jamie is in the doorway he is the only one able to act.  Nirro is still in the act of packing up his security.  Cyril is outside with pistol in hand.

We're down to combat now.  Please get me posts asap and please remember the more info you give me the more rounds of combat I can round.

As soon as Nirro is aware of the Trandoshans, he will drop to one Knee and pull his blaster even if  he has not finished packing up the Kit. He will ready an action to shoot into the room the moment Jaime Moves to the side or falls. If he can see both Trandoshans from where he is he will opt to fire at the one typing if possible.

Jamie pulls the nightvision goggles off his face to prevent prolonged blindness as he moves to the side of the doorway, taking as much cover as possible from whatever he can.  He then fires his pistol once each at both of the Trandoshans, gritting his teeth and hoping the stun setting worked on reptilians.  If the guard is not stunned, Jamie will fire at him as many times as necessary to finish the job before turning his attention to the techie again.

As Jamie moves inside and Nirro drops to one knee, Cyril stands behind Nirro, pushes off his goggles up with his left hand and shoots at the first target he can comfortably get a shot off at with the pistol in his right.  Once his googles are off his face and on his head he will grip his pistol two-handed and keep shooting until all the guards are down or Jamie orders him to stop.

Exilim's thoughts had wandered back to his past as he waited, his mind not completely focused on the task ahead. He had registered Jamie's team as they came over the wall and he had done a brief scan of the area. Seeing Jamie's team approach the door he shook his head to clear his thoughts pulling his concentration back together. Once again he scanned the area looking for potential threats. The sweep brought him back to the door just in time to see the shooting start.
