Re: Spacefold

"Roger, will commence with a wider patrol of the region.  Batgirl please move on ahead with your perimeter sweep.  Head back towards the ship and starting at 10 miles out begin your patrol path around the ship.  Reader fall in opposite Batgirl's position on the other side of the ship and begin your patrol as well.

Once you've made two passes expand your patrol 1 mile and we will continue to do so until you get to my current position.  I will fall in between the two of you once in position.  Please keep the same distance between each other, no need to take unnecessary risks getting too far apart.


He watches Batgirl heading back and makes it a point to move his own Veritech into position.  With the three of them patrolling in this way he hopes to avoid too many weak points in the perimeter or the ship.

Re: Spacefold

Korvan looks at the three, and then right at Helen. "You have been on this planet the longest so you will lead this team in the field. If you run into trouble give a shout on the radio and will will get you air cover and assist on getting you three out of there. Your objective is to make sure nothing dangerous sneaks up on us."

Re: Spacefold

Severian:
"I'm surprised to hear humans have stories of wizards. Ive only been around a handful of humans since leaving Peryton...It might be something id have to research when I have the time and resources."


"Ah, yes, the humans have a long history of legends about magic. In the English speaking world they have a root myth about a wizard called Merlin; he's very similar to a Zor-type character; wise and old, well meaning, but sometimes his actions lead to dire consequences.
They also have magic in many of their religious beliefs. Turning sticks into snakes, walking through fire unharmed, calling lightning from the sky, healing the sick, raising the dead, even transmutation of matter.

If our patrol shows the base as being abandoned, I think I'd like you to take a look before we move a bigger force in; since you can be, essentially, undetectable to the Invid, you'd be able to examine it closer without the same risk as a more conventional scout team. Before you go in, of course, we'd have our team in place, ready to move in. If there were a problem, you'd be able to have good backup ready."

"Understood." She will fall into position and begin her patrol as instructed.

Re: Spacefold

Helen glances at Thirteen then at the other one, "Well I know of an old base that, in all honest is probably destroyed but it's too the north, it's about a hundred kliks so if we we want to remain hidden thats a three or four day hike one way." She glanced around sneering at the other two, "We would be almost like rats in a maze if there is a large invid invasion force around, any inorganics would hunt us down before we saw our first evening."

Re: Spacefold

  Korvan turns and looks right at Helen as he hears her suggest there is another possible Base. "Are you Sure about that Private?"

  Once she replies with yes he radios Cerise; "Lt. Cerise, Korvan, Sorry to disturb you Ma'am, PFC Grey Has a possible location for a secondary Base, Ma'am"

Re: Spacefold

<gree>"Roger, Mr Korvan. I'll be right there; don't send her out quite yet."</green>

Cerise addresses Severian once again: "You'll have to excuse me; apparently one of the troop that you arrived with has some information about another base. Feel free to come along if you feel like you may have anything to add."

Cerise then heads back outside, to where Korvan is keeping everything organized.

"So, what's this about another base? Do we have any idea what this other base may have as far as personnel, materiel, or arms? Also, if you would, the coordinates; we can have the veritechs investigate it, once they have checked out the base you came from."

"Really?", Severian says hearing Cerise's descriptions of these human wizards - why had never encountered any since they arrived in ths area of space?

Perhaps they keep them as a secret weapon - the invid respect our abilities, hence why they appealed to our desire for power and greed to conquer ourselves for them, he thought to himself.

"Of course", Severian said, walking with Cerise.

"I had no idea of another base; You have to understand, my presence among the humans at the base I was stationed...Unnerved a few of them. They didn't really confide in me anything beyond my role in the wargames - superstitious lot, these humans", he said with a sigh.

Re: Spacefold

"Not so much a base it was just a secondary landing site, might have some equipment," She shrugged "Not even sure if it was still operational," She said with a shrug, "The scout team should be in a one two three formation, I think I could work out the location given enough time it's north from the old base far enough to maybe not have been discovered."

Re: Spacefold

"Ok, get to work on those coordinates. I'll let the scouts know what's coming."

Cerise contacts wraith: "Wraith, apparently there was a secondary landing site for our side somewhere north. Once you're done checking out the base, you'll be heading there to scout it out too. We'll update you with coordinates as soon as Ms. Grey has worked them out."

  Looking at Cerise, Korvan raises an eye brow. He makes sure non of the others can hear him as he speaks; "Ma'am I do not suggest sending our advance guard to far. If the Invid come charging us we would have minimal time to get ready. and nothing to delay them."

Re: Spacefold

"From what Ms. Gray has said, it is not significantly farther than the base is. If That assessment is in error, then we'll have to consider a different approach to scouting the landing site. For now, though, I want Wraith to know what the plans are before they have to enact them.

Besides, if the conditions at the base are clear enough, we may want to hold off on the landing site anyhow; we may want to raid the base first."

Re: Spacefold

Responding to cerise..."Roger, we will we await your follow up before proceeding to the secondary base..."

Kaarle continues monitoring the first base from his console and the ever widening search from his new team.  It was at times like this that he wondered how it was command could even function...  The ship is still in desperate need of repair, Invid are infesting the other base as we speak, and now they want us to investigate this other base....great.

He opens comms with Michelle once more

Re: Spacefold

"I'm not a hundred percent sure where about's the base is, I wasn't trained for this" She said simply looking at the others "Due north of the main base is about the best I can get you, I would recommend a sweep pattern, I doubt it would be that seriously hidden."
