Re: King Squadron
+++Randver Helm to squadron, we're coming up on the listening Post at Ultima Black Six. Comms says it's silent, but I can see docking lights are still in operation. There's one of our system ships, a transport, Elephant-Class, that's docked and the other rings appear to be vacant, but intact. Surface seems alright too, but I'm not picking up any movement down there.+++
Visuals of the listening post station are spread across the commnet. It looks just like it did in the briefing, the squat little structure that you knew was only the tip of the facility, the other 80% of it buried under the rock of one of the ten moons (UB-VIc) surrounding the Neptunian world. Above it, a long narrow superstructure of elevators, pipes and conduits up to the radial docking rings, allowing for up to six ships to docked with the station at one time, easily accommodating the two system ships and up to four visiting vessels for patrols and resupply missions.
+++The station main power seems to be on... thermal scans show nothing unusual. Sensor array seem to be passive, although they might be off all together. I dunno, boss. It looks like the whole place is just.. abandoned.+++
Valdar and Angantyr move into flanking positions around the huge enemy cruiser. She's still silent, but as you get closer sensors pick up multiple hotspots on the hull of the ship. Closing inspection reveals pressure suits, lifesigns. The crew of the crippled Grendel is moving outside the ship in some sort of EVA action, there appear to be over a dozen of them.
