So while discussing the plans Gerry raises his name.

To Gerry: Yes?

“Of course, Salos. I would be happy to teach you, whenever you’re ready and we have time.”

“OOC: This response would be at the same time as Salos’ request.”

"Thank you my friend"

When not working on plans or training with Kalas, Salos will make himself available for spiritual council and will also find time to meditate in his quarters. He will meditate, as he usually does, on the works of St. Amalthea, but he will also spend a good deal of time meditating on the works of Mantius the Soldier - a disciple he rarely studies - in preparation for the upcoming battle.

I will use some of that time to do a Restorative Practice to fill my newly expanded VP bank

Focus + Faith = 15, rolling a 3

VP: 4, WP: 1

Gerry looks around aware that all eyes are on him now. "Ahem, so, I was adding it up and I dont think we have enough rooms for the Muster." He states then looks around again, "That is all."

How many Muster did you manage to get to help us?

"Well its like I told ya, Quiet Matthew, Blind Pete, Peg Leg Susan. Martin, Hery and Franklin Jones platoons." Gerry states.

I apologize. We missed the fact that you got platoons. How many are in each platoon?

"About 10 guys in each one, so 70ish." Gerry states.

"Gerry, you forgot to add the leaders." Frank states.

"Right, 120, yeah definatley 120." Gerry states.

Donavan rubbs the bridge of his nose and takes a deep breath, "Thank you guys you can leave now." he states as he has the Muster leave the room, "Should be about 75 give or take. Add that to the Company of Soldiers and Farmers that we have at our disposal in Calypso. We might make this work."

Agreed. Gives a greater diversion to allow us to sneak in and rescue Penelope.

So i think we only need 2 safe houses. 1 for team C for the night before, and a separate one afterwards to help keep Penelope safe until we can get her off planet.

The twins are correct, we can't come up with enough safe houses to cover all the musters. We could get a 3rd for Team A, the Zaxxon's crew.

Excellent. We should bring Adam in to run the plan by him. He and his people are also skilled at conducting their affairs without being noticed and may have valuable feedback.

I concur. We can have the musters, supported by the Zaxxon, do a frontal assault, while Adam and his people can do more guerilla tactics.

We'll make sure Adam is in the briefing room and part of the planning process.

John looks over the plan. "Im going to go with the Muster and the town soldiers. The Soldiers know me and the Muster can support the group for minimal casualties. However, you may be looking for a snatch and grab. But I'm going for scorched earth. That palace of corruption will be raised to the ground. My father no longer deserves the title given to him, and if mother is involved, then so be it."

"My first priority is protecting Penelope, and now also Elise. I agree that your family and their co-conspirators must be stopped, but I would prefer they be taken alive and face justice.

However, these people are the worst kind of murderers and I will not stand in your way."

I'm for both avenues. Just in order. First rescue Penelope and Elise. Once they are out of the way, burn the friggin thing to the ground.

And it sounds like we just might have enough strength to do both.

"Then I suggest you go in first to give you a head start, because once we start the fireworks, you will see a side of me that few do. Revenge is a dark part of my soul, but it has its uses." John states.

Would you be opposed to helping to initially create a frontal assault/distraction while we rescue Penelope and Elise, holding back until we complete, and then going full on?

John thinks for a moment and take a deep breath. "Yes, however, once we break down the front doors. That is the signal that you time is limited. "

Fair enough.

Going over the plan with us, John, The Captain, and Adam.



MISSON GOAL:
1. Rescue Penelope
2. Rescue Elise
3. Rescue Abraham if he wants it, though he can probably manage on his own
4. Mete out justice on Augustine
5. Collect evidence against the Hawkwoods if we don't take them out

It's important that we all get on the same page with a plan that we can all agree upon.
My current suggested plan, covering everyone's goals and ideas as I have heard them, is:

We need 2 safe houses: 1 for before the Wedding, a separate one for after.

The night before, Lady Alina, Bada-Gar, Salos, Kalas, and I will arrive via skimmer and stay in one of Abraham's safe houses.

Start with:
Adam and his people start some guerilla tactics, to create a diversion.

Once guards start going towards them, they retreat and the main force attacks. This will consist of John, The Zaxxon's Revenge, the musters and the town soldiers. Adam and his people can join in they so choose.

As soon as we hear the battle start, Lady Alina, Bada-Gar, Salos, Kalas, and I will start the rescue mission. Once we have Penelope and Elise secure (and Abraham if he wants out), we will signal John and the Captain.

Thoughts? Feedback? Any changes you would make?

"It is a good plan, it may even work. "

"Ok it sounds like we have a plan. So lets get some rest and head out first thing in the morning" Donavan states. "Ill touch base with Musters and someone I trust within the Charioteers. Where do we want to land?"

"I think the plan is for Tanner to pick part C up in a skimmer, hopefully without attracting attention, and deliver us to a safe house the night before. You'll deliver the Muster, John, and Adam's people the morning of the wedding to Augustine's house.

"Ok, so where do we rendezvous with Tanner and the skimmer then?" Donavan asks/

"That's a good question. We can't exclude the possibility that our location is being watched. Adam, you and your people know this area better than anybody, do you have any suggestions? If nothing else, maybe we pick a secluded spot a few miles from here and we could hike there to have Tanner pick us up. I'm concerned about taking the ship because it's more likely to get spotted. "

OOC How far from Calypso are we? I've been assuming we're fairly close, but I don't really know

It is best if we do not take the ship. We can walk to the rendezvous. A secluded area is best as well.
