k, thank you. Do officers aboard the Pious even know that these vehicles are present?

Gregory is aware of them, he just doesn't factor them into his planning because he assumes they're for the private use of the Kaptin and her elite guard. Similarly, he doesn't pry too much into them.

Would be fun to look into it, though.

My understanding is that they (Landraider, 2x Land Speeders) were gifted to us by the Sons of Orar and have been retrofitted to standard human occupants. Should they have a spaceport/airport we can land the Aquila, halo barges and the Land Raider/Chimeras and troopers as a show of force but we present as diplomatic. Maybe a luxury ground care as well.

We should get some auramite/gold-painted ceramite power armor for the kaptin.

Captain prefers silver colours, and also has Saint Blessed Lathe Wrought Carapace

No, I wasn't planning on using the vehicles. I was just looking at what ships we had that could go down to the surface and finally decided to chase down the flavor text on the livery of the Astartes equipment.

 Jak has something of a to-do list, craft-wise but the teeny-tiny version of the universe we're in (and the fact that he has a day job and I only use part of his 'leisure' time to craft in) means it's a long list. ^_^

Arius was supposed to look into the vehicles but he went AWOL.

While it is no doubt more polite to use a spaceport, or at least big airport, I am fairly sure that the technology would allow you to drop those vehicles off on any open field, and most urban areas if you don't mind a little bit of collateral damage.

Have to keep in mind probably even in 40k most municipal roads probably aren't rated to the majority of armour the Imperium deploys lol. So our hosts may not be pleased by that potentially.

In reply to Cennet Melek Shiraishi (msg # 20):

 Maybe, although STC-derived roadlaying formula might well mean 'ferrocrete for days, son!'. Weirdly, civil engineering doesn't seem to make it into much of the lore but it's easy to imagine a Leman Russ wrecking tarmac or rolling happily over a near-indestructible Imperial road surface, depending upon whether the author even thinks about that stuff. ^_^

I wouldn't be surprised in either direction if we're honest. Granted, by rule of cool logic... I'd rather see the tank happily chewing up the tarmac at speed to the dismay of some civil planner lol.

Well I think we bring a tank and APC's and at the end a staff car. If it goes bad we light them up, if they ask nicely we use the limo.

So... who goes where?

Manufactorum
- Jak
- Harmonia

Gelron
- Searlait
- Vormav?
- Gregory
- Faith

Pious Lament
- Cennet

TBD you tell me where you wanna go.
- Garu (If still active)
- Vormav
- Ravandio
- Holt (If still active)

I have PMed some of the inactive players and will let you know if I get any responses.
.

 Jak's borrowing a gun cutter for his run, but don't forget those haulers we've got. No firepower to speak of, but they're a lot of chonk. ^_^

I'm planing on taking the Aquila (if they =][= hasn't)

To the planet I think i'll take.

Ships:
Grey Pilgrim, Incarnadine Drake, Onager, Mukaali, Aurochs.

Vehicles:
Herald of Armato, Light of the Emperor, Megara's Might, Gathalamor Express, Staff car.

The Inquisition team dropped in one of the Halo barges which the sent back after sucessfully landing unobserved, they will confirm this in game shortly.
.

Rav would probably be much more useful on the surface, as a pilot for one of the drop ships and then a vehicle on the ground.

Feel free to mix in anywhere Rav, with the Captain’s consent of course.

Is Searlait calling ahead, or just dropping in unannounced?

I’ve heard back from Scarlet, who has on going interest in the game, but also ongoing issues, and also Vormav who might resume posting once he’s caught up
.

Assuming with the ground teams as is, I'll probably be functioning in an overwatch capacity from the vessel barring anyone stepping into that capacity.

As otherwise, strictly speaking, working at charts and probably spitballing some alternate routes from other nearby 'hub' systems.

I'm fine joining the Gelron team. I'll get something in there in a sec.

Hey Faith, Cennet isn't actually there the Captain and I's conversation is happening via vox/microbead.

Wow, I feel dumb now. Editing!
