  1. RES Talon Mission Briefing 51605.05 - Season 21 Our small advance group has managed to infiltrate the personal quarter’s section at Galae Command, an area reserved for the upper ranking officials for when they are unable to leave due to security or other difficult situations. We hope to gain access to other parts of the facility, and take out some of the senior leadership of the Coup which has taken over the military matters. Meanwhile, back at t’Ksa's location, several dishern maenak and dheno from the Talon have beamed down to reinforce her location and provide support for the other teams as well. t'Mahren, is still unseen. BEGIN SIM BEGIN SIM BEGIN SIM KhreRiovtRex -> ::tripped a bit on a bit of construction material, catching herself on Leah's shoulder:: KhreRiovtRex -> Sorry, KhreRiovtRex -> Sorry about that Laeh.

  2. MISSION BRIEFING RES TALON 51604.28 - Season 21 The Talon command team, for our part of this mission have made our way infiltrating into the Galae Retor, in hopes of using a 'back way' into Galae Headquarters and try to help quell the coup that has taken over our homeworld. Most of the command team have made it to the hidden passageway, while t'Ksa has decided to stay with the advance assault teams to deal with their wounded. t'Mahren had went to create a distraction and later join up with t'Ksa. Above us, we've heard the sounds of ships assaulting the surface with weapons fire, but from our vantage, do not know if it is ours, or that of the coup.

There is a hidden dumbwaiter, which we can use to access the upper corridor. We just have to hope, that nobody will be in that area at this time. tAehjae -> :: nods:: Koga S'Bien -> ::looks at his chrono:: I hope not. KhreRiovtRex -> There should na be anyone. It was purposely put in an unfinished room off or Var'lon's quarters. Even if someone has taken his, it is doubtful anyone would even bother with a half built room. KhreRiovtRex -> Let's go.... Koga S'Bien -> ::nods:: tAehjae -> :: moves out:: KhreRiovtRex -> And pray the elements are on our side......or this may be a very short trip ACTION: Again the ground trembles from heavy weapons fire...... tAehjae -> .:: carefully makes her way down the corridor weapon at the ready:: KhreRiovtRex -> a bit of dust falls from the ceiling around them Koga S'Bien -> ::Looks up:: Hmm. tAehjae -> I hope this place does na fall down on us. KhreRiovtRex -> I hope those are our ships........na telling until we're back topside.... If things went as planned, what you all did to that communications array, should have allowed our hidden fleet to have returned and get a major jump on them Laehval tTemarr ->: Putting her hand on the wall as she walks, she followed the corridor, heading inward.

KhreRiovtRex -> Ie we left her plenty of dheno, but I'd prefer our own staff instead to care for our own KhreRiovtRex -> Ok....weapons at the ready.....just in case this room has been compromised, though I don't know why, it would look like nothing other than a laundry/disposal chute..... Koga S'Bien -> ::readies his disruptor rifle:: tAehjae -> ::readies her weapon:: KhreRiovtRex -> :: leans into the cabinet wall and presses it forward opening into another dimly lit space, a few scattered carts with folded linens, and a few with linens needing to be tended.:: @ ACTION:: Up with the medical team, a few of the dheno are concerned about the increasing weapons fire on the grounds around the Retor and head to discuss with t'Ksa if she wishes to remain here, or try to move operations to one of the ships in the attack fleet tAehjae -> :: whispers:: so far so good M_K_tKsa -> ((You tried that last sim, remember?))

Laehval tTemarr -> ::Files in, stifling a sneeze at all the dust.:: KhreRiovtRex -> My plan, is to take the dumbwaiter up, and try to take out as many of them as we can. ....Anyone we encounter in Galae Command, we know will be a traitor...so au may be free with au weapons ..... Again, this may be a io way trip. Koga S'Bien -> All right. ::moves into position:: Lerak trPexil -> :: Has his gun at the ready, looking around :: tAehjae -> :: follows Laeh and t’Vatrix:: KhreRiovtRex -> I will na force any of au to join me, but .....I'm going.... M_K_tKsa -> We've already had this discussion. With the volumn of patients and their needs, we can na move the med unit. We are well defended and stray weapons fire is part of the hazards of this job. tAehjae -> I’m with au Rekkhai KhreRiovtRex -> :: @ TS Dheno> As au say Rekkhai..... but the situation is tenuous at best, there is a lot of stray weapons fire from all of those ships battling above us KhreRiovtRex -> @ TS dheno..if au change au mind....we can move au quickly KhreRiovtRex -> :: activates the dumbwaiter:: This will hold 2-3 of us at a time...: steps on.... motions for more to join her...

  3. RES Talon Mission Briefing 51604.21- Season 21 t'Vatrix and her detail have made it down to the lower level of the building, and have just dispatched two Othan officers that they encounter a few doors down from the secret access way to Galae Headquarters. The plan is to wait a few siuren to see if the others are able to reach our position before opening the hidden passageway. Leah and Pexil had held off security measures just long enough for the advance team to make it to their location without giving themselves up on sensors. However, Othan teams are starting to regain some control and are advancing on the engineer's position and they will need to move fast. t'Ksa has 2 full detachments of troops guarding and reinforcing the medical triage area she's set up, while t'Mahren has been sabotaging the computer server, trying to slow our enemy down, and to decoy them away from our position. Depending on how the Othan troops advance, she will have to decide to reinforce either t'Ksa or our position.

  4. RES Talon Mission Briefing 51604.21- Season 21 t'Vatrix and her detail have made it down to the lower level of the building, and have just dispatched two Othan officers that they encounter a few doors down from the secret access way to Galae Headquarters. The plan is to wait a few siuren to see if the others are able to reach our position before opening the hidden passageway. Leah and Pexil had held off security measures just long enough for the advance team to make it to thier location without giving themselves up on sensors. However, Othan teams are starting to regain some control and are advancing on the engineer's position and they will need to move fast. t'Ksa has 2 full detachments of troops guarding and reinforcing the medical triage area she's set up, while t'Mahren has been sabotaging the computer server, trying to slow our enemy down, and to decoy them away from our position. Depending on how the Othan troops advance on her position, she will have to decide to reinforce either t'Ksa or our position.
  5. RES Talon Mission Briefing 51604.14 - Season 21 RES Talon Mission Briefing 51604.14 - Season 21 Our team has infiltrated the Galae Retor, with the objective of first taking this facility, and while the enemy may focus on ousting us, or dealing with our forces taking other locations, we have a plan. Only known to a few higher ranking officers, is that there is a covert access way between the Retor and the Galae Command facilities. We plan to access this route, and make a fast, critical strike upon those that have attacked and conspired to kill many of our families and fellow officers. Leah and Lerak have been bypassing the security systems for us, while Koga, t'A and t’Vatrix have been clearing other obstacles in the way, as are several of our other teams. t'Ksa has set up a triage area for caring for the injured. t'Mahren and some others have went to cause a distraction in the server room.

  7. RES Talon Mission Briefing 51604.07 - Season 21 The team has managed to get into one of the secure buildings within the Galae Retor, and have been working to disable systems to allow them to move more freely. Koga, t'A and t'Vatrix have managed to hold off some approaching dheno, while Leah and Pexil work on entry into the security protocols. As we left last week, Leah had indeed managed to gain access to the system she was working on, and was urging Pexil to do the same. Meanwhile, t'Ksa has been patching up several of our assault team members, that had managed to get injured on the initial assault.
  8. RES Talon Mission Briefing 51603.31 - Season 21 The team along with several other groups in our phase of the attack squadron have landed in the main courtyard of the Retor, and have managed to get past the first wave of resistance that we've encountered. Having dispatches teams to take to the high areas and take out guard towers and any other immediate threats, t’Ksa has taken a few to set up a triage area to deal with our wounded, while the rest of us are working to infiltrate further into the main buildings. Having accessed one doorway past the dead body of a guard blocking a door, we now depend on our engineers to shut down main security and computer systems to see us safely through. Koga and t'Vatrix will keep watch while they work. Any questions?

  9. RES Talon Mission Briefing 51603.17 - Season 21 The crew as part of the resistance teams trying to take back key facilities from the Othan/Tal Shiar alliance, have taken on the mission to head up several teams trying to take back Galae Retor. Hopefully with the communications grid having already been taken down by our engineers, once we make the assault, we'll be able to call upon air support if needed from Galae ships that have been hidden and in waiting to come to our aid. More difficult, our team hopes to also use some covert accesses from the Retor, to possibly enter Galae Command, and see if anything can be done there as well. Some of the crew seem resistant, and have been told that they can return to resistance headquarters, if they do na wish to join this part of the mission. This is all....volunteers at this time.....nobody will be ordered to go. Nobody will suffer any consequences if they decide na to go.

  10. RES Talon Mission Briefing 5160310 - Season 21 The crew has opened the next set of orders for the assault on the capital. Our particular assignment..to infiltrate and attempt to take back the Galae Retor and Headquarters. We will have support of several groups of Galae officers to direct and hope we can pick up more along the way. BEGIN SIM BEGIN SIM BEGIN SIM KhreRiovtRex -> So....we are hoping that in taking back the Retor, that others that serve there, will join us. They will have fortified Galae Command, however, they may na know all of the "accessible" entries to Gaale Headquarters, that exist with the Retor..... KhreRiovtRex -> Let' us just say.....that some 'classified escape routes' from one, may be our express entry to the other.... Lerak trPexil -> Underground.. KhreRiovtRex -> Essentially.....ie Koga S'Bien -> Hmm. KhreRiovtRex -> We know that while they have come to our homeworld, and with the assistance of turncoat Tal Shiar members, have taken control of our key offices and facilities, but they can na have, in na way, can they have the people to man all of these areas. KhreRiovtRex -> They will have had to 'made' many of the KhreRiovtRex -> students at the Retor, if they've indeed kept it open as our intelligence notes that is some operation there.....we are assuming, that they are 'training' new officers, to serve them.....however... KhreRiovtRex -> it's our hope, that our Galae officers....upon seeing our resurgence.....will join with us. If they do na, then they too, will have shown their false colors to ch’Rihan....and we will deal with that in hand M_K_tKsa -> One problem at a time. Koga S'Bien -> ::Listens in as he continues his course for the capitol:: KhreRiovtRex -> The last intelligence that had been smuggled out, indicated that the armory is still well stocked.....for training purposes....that, and they had killed off a lot of the 'resistance' so they really are na fearing that someone will use it against them... That's where we're hoping to hit first. KhreRiovtRex -> We will need some of au 'special skills' with engineering, with infiltration techniques.... Laehval tTemarr -> ::Glancing up from her ISD, she waved it at the rest of the team.:: This is promising. Othan guards have already been dispatched to the power station to "regain control" of the area. ::She snorted.:: As if we'd stick around after blasting the place.

KhreRiovtRex -> it is my belief, that we and our troops can take this facility back.... M_K_tKsa -> For infectious diseases, yes. For a military operation, no. KhreRiovtRex -> there will be a fight I'm sure, but I’m hoping we'll be able to infiltrate and subdue before they can notify too many or call for assistance. I'd much rather take it quietly, and then have that aspect of surprise, when we try to gain entrance to Headquarters. KhreRiovtRex -> :: grins at tKsa:: Look at it this way...We've got an Othan Infection...we're here to isolate it, destroy it, and make our 'body' whole again...

Assistance from allies -- past or present -- cannot be openly offered. KhreRiovtRex -> Ie....Which is why we wish to take the Retor first. Aur information showed they pressed many of the students/trainees, to enlist to their cause, or die like their former leaders. However, .... KhreRiovtRex -> They also have to populate the Tal Shiar headquarters as well....and as au have met many of their ranks in the resistance as well, it comes to reason, that while they hold all of these facilities, their forces are thin at best..... M_K_tKsa -> considering the size of the Galae, why haven't we heard from other members of the fleet who weren't based around ch'Rihan during the initial conflict? Has anyone from the resistance contacted them for additional assistance? KhreRiovtRex -> We also have to assume, that na all we meet, will be receptive to our return..... EvietMahren -> Of course.

EvietMahren -> My only second thought is that we took too bloody long to get home. We knew about this event *months* ago, and could have very likely prevented it. EvietMahren -> Instead, we are left only to clean up this incredible mess. EvietMahren -> Of *course* not everyone will be receptive to our return. I have yet to see anyone who *has* been. Lerak trPexil -> :: nods :: KhreRiovtRex -> This has been in the works for years, ever since the Fvillah and the Deihu started accepting all the funding from the Othan to make up the shortfalls from the Dominion War....

  13. Jolan Tru Chaz, We enjoyed having you drop in and join in the sim last week on the Talon. We'd love to have you drop by again if you are interested. You may also want to check out the USS Republic. BTW....Love the old school Animated Series Andorian pic. (granted, for the Talon, we'd have to shoot it, but still...it's very nice) :)
  14. RES TALON MISSION BRIEFING 51602.11 – Season 21 The various resistance groups had begun the joint incursion against the Othan and homeworld Tal'Shiar collaborators, hitting important targets near the capital, transportation centers, communications hubs and military sites. Some teams were encountering more of a fight than had been expected, and others were making great strides. The group that the Talon crew had joined with, with help from t'Mahren's friends, had made it to their main target, and while drawing attention, have so far been able to move towards the goal of dismantling and installing a virus into the communications. While Leah, Pexil, t'Ksa, t'Mahren and Koga move towards their objective, others including t'Rexan and t'A are fighting off and trying to lead away a number of attack ships that are trying to stop our teams...

  18. I would just like to congratulate the crew of the RES Talon for their talent and longevity, as we begin our 2st year of simming!!
  19. RES TALON MISSION BREIFING 051512.10 The crew has joined with a resistance cell of joint Galae and Tal Shiar officers, working on a plan of coordinated attacks against the Othan and our own Tal Shiar that have staged what evidently has been a coup disguised as protecting the home world against another coup. t'Vatrix has relayed some of the plans that the other cells have planned as a coordinated run, but we realize we need other matters to go our way as well. Pexil and Laeh have come up with an idea to work on some sort of virus that would gather intelligence as well as disrupt the system. Others, are still not convinced this coordinated attack is the best idea....

Are au going to try to use that transmission? t'Kallen> ::looks to Laehval:: Au are capable of doing that from here with such a lack of proper etreeh equipment? Lerak trPexil -> Using their transmission perhaps, but I need to capture the transmission first. M_K_tKsa -> The population affected by the contagion is pretty diverse as well as widespread. Has any io been plotting the clusters to determine if there was any sort of pattern? I know that the governmental overthrow is the primary target and concern, but without identifying where these pathogens have been introduced and how, this little rebellion is going to be facing the same issues that the current populace is suffering.

  20. Soooooo….when we last left off...... We had left Security Team 3 and Nickles to guard the 'hostages/prisoners', had sent Jas back to the ship with the dead body of Larkin to look more into his death, and Sec Team 4 had went out into the storm to see if there was any truth to what we had been told of 'dead mutant bodies' tossed out into the snow off the cliff Meanwhile....we had started to investigate the rest of the hijacker's base and Heather had just uncovered a fairly large stash of stolen goods, art and latinum. USS REPUBLIC MISSION BRIEFING 51512.07 : The team moves to discover if there are any clues left in the base as to where the criminals had gotten off to, and see if any of the items here could incriminate them in the horrific crimes that had been inflicted on so many that ended up being transformed.

RES TALON MISSION BRIEFING 51512.03 The Talon crew had been transported to one of the resistance cells of a combined Tal Shiar/Galae group that was fighting small battles, rescuing potential targets of the Othan/Tal Shiar (our bad ones) combo, and have been brought up to speed on what has been going on that they knew of. We learned that several of our more prominent crew’s families had been moved to safety early on in the coup, and that others had went into hiding. However, many others had been captured, thanks to turncoats who thought they knew the right side to back (Laeh's ri'anov for example). We have been made aware that there are several well placed resistance cells, and that they were waiting for some guidance or leadership to help direct taking back our world. We now have to decide what our course of action will be... . BEGIN SIM BEGIN SIM BEGIN SIM KhreRiovtRex -> :: Looks around her:: Au have decided to stay and assist, I will na frown on any of au, that wish to make an attempt to find au family if they are na already hidden. Normally I'd ba opposed, but we ... we can't sacrifice everything we have, or what else is there for us to fight for. KhreRiovtRex -> This is our world, this is our home.... KhreRiovtRex -> Power hungry fvai have worked against our home world, traitors that the Elements will see burn if we have anything to do about it, that have betrayed our world, our trust in leadership, to invite thise outsiders, that came with offers of riches, to assist us when we were still recovering from the Dominion War..... KhreRiovtRex -> This is your home, your family, but I leave it to you.....I won't force any to stay. But know that if au do stay, we will make the attempt to find au families, will try to get them somewhere safe. KhreRiovtRex -> We will work with these other resistance cells, and we will take back this world. We may be small, but even the smallest grain of sand, or drip of water, will eventually wear down the mountain Laehval tTemarr -> ::Laehval waved a hand as she pushed off the wall and shook her head lightly.:: Na need for speeches, Enarrain. Na a single io of us will be leaving. ::She turned to look at the others of their faithful crew.:: It is time we get back to work, ie? KhreRiovtRex -> ::looks around her at the others:: M_K_tKsa -> Ie, let's get back to work. Where do au want us to start? :: taking a pilfered ISD from the table top to take notes:: Koga S'Bien -> Indeed. Lerak trPexil -> :: Listening and watching :: KhreRiovtRex -> They have noted that there is large power plant, which supplies much of the eastern continent with power, about half a day's travel by RAC. If we were to take that down.... KhreRiovtRex -> It could collapse some of their ground to air monitoring long enough, that we can attack central communication nodes and towers planet side, and there is the potential that we could sent a tight beam coded message to a ship that has been posing as one of the Tal Shiar supporting the Othan... KhreRiovtRex -> If we could take out the local monitoring, we could send a signal that they would not be able to track to here, but also that message would be for them to take out a few of the communication sattelites in orbit. KhreRiovtRex -> Without that surveillance, we will be able to move and act more freely. KhreRiovtRex -> Koga, I would trust your piloting skills to take a RAC in someplace low and fast.... Koga S'Bien -> ::Nods:: Understood KhreRiovtRex -> And that's where we'd have the engineers knowing where to place the explosives we'll need to take with us to destroy the power plant..or at least, disable it... Laehval tTemarr -> Au propose that we destroy the power grid in this sector to hinder their efforts. What then? Are we to make a coordinated attack on the capitol? KhreRiovtRex -> That is the eventual plan. Several of the other cells will make a coordinated move against similar locations in their regions M_K_tKsa -> Eventual? How 'eventual" is this? Once these power grids are taken out and these other things taken care of, they're going to know something is up. KhreRiovtRex -> We believe that there are many more in hiding from our ranks, and after the treatment the populace has received from their new overlords, we should have substantial help in infiltrating and retaking the capital. KhreRiovtRex -> But if we all go at once, they won’t' know where to concentrate. They will have to choose, and should they attack us, then we will have to do our best. M_K_tKsa -> t'Valtrix, we can't be at this for years. KhreRiovtRex -> ::turns to Morgana:: Fine...then what is your plan? Just roll over, and kiss their feet? Lerak trPexil -> What is the message, if I may ask? M_K_tKsa -> No. ::snaps:: And just because I question the time line doesn't mean I'm giving up. KhreRiovtRex -> I don't plan to be at this for years. But seriously, if you have an alternate plan, let us hear it. Any of au, because it might have been something that the others here getting ready to head out, haven’t' thought of. Laehval tTemarr -> I tend to agree with t'Ksa on that score. This is na a time for careful infiltration to take down the new regime from the inside. We gather as many allies as we can and make a coordinated attack to remove them from power. The longer we wait, the more people will suffer and die. ::Her fist slammed into her palm.:: M_K_tKsa -> We're the late comers to this party. At this point, any infiltrations should have already been initiated and in place. KhreRiovtRex -> I'm not sure where 'years' came from heading out to take out the power facilities, but that is the intent. Take out the power, their ability to see us coming.....then the various groups move in. It's the installations in the capital and in orbit that will be the problems, they are deep and well-guarded. We need to somehow take those down..... Lerak trPexil -> We need to cut off the head of this Othan beast to end this. Is the power grid a means to that end? KhreRiovtRex -> and once they do, those ships loyal to us, will na longer be at a disadvantage. M_K_tKsa -> How many installations are we talking? Laehval tTemarr -> ::She snapped her fingers and pointed at Lerak.:: That gives me a diabolical idea, but I will need your help in its creation. A virus to infect their systems and all others in contact with them... tAehjae -> :: listening:: KhreRiovtRex -> Without those facilities down, a direct assault will be difficult Koga S'Bien -> ooh tAehjae -> Rekkhai:: to tTemarr:: How do we proceed. KhreRiovtRex -> t'Aehjae, while they are working on that plan, go with Koga to the weapons supply officer here. They will supply au with the weapons we all will need to get into the installation so that the engineers can implement their plan. Lerak trPexil -> :: Nods at the virus talk. His studies at the low levels of ship systems were sure to help :: tAehjae -> ie rekkhai Laehval tTemarr -> Demolition, but io with a trap. ::Slight grin that didn't bode well for the opposing force.:: tAehjae -> :: turns anf steps towards Koga:: KhreRiovtRex -> ::turns to tKsa:: The plan is that there are 7 teams from this location, to take out the major power plants and distribution clusters in this region. Our team will only be going to one Koga S'Bien -> ::Nods and leads t'Aehjae to the supply officer:: Let's get au armed up tAehjae -> Na just I but all of us. KhreRiovtRex -> Koga...arms for everyone. Kaleh's, ie'yakk, grenades, whatever we'll need. Tools if they have them and find t’Ksa medical supplies Koga S'Bien -> ::nods:: Aye aye tAehjae -> Ie Koga S'Bien -> ::heads to the weapons locker after the supply officer opens it, hands out various weapons to everyone:: tAehjae -> :: taking the weapons as Koga hands them over:: Do na forget ie'yakk M_K_tKsa -> So once the power plants are down, do we have an immediate goal after that? tAehjae -> ie'yakks KhreRiovtRex -> ::trying to remain levelheaded, as she herself, wants to strap into a fighter and go blasting, or find away back to Talon, and use it, as she had on their display when they last left home world KhreRiovtRex -> Ie, as I stated, we will try to reach a few of our ships, and hopefully Talon is in range. We hope that they can help take down the orbital communications, and even hit targets on the surface. But our intent is na to destroy our own planet, we will not scorch it to win it back. KhreRiovtRex -> No. Once they can na see us, we will move on the capital, and try to recapture the most sensitive areas. tAehjae -> Koga I have all I can carry, Au get the rest KhreRiovtRex -> The Deihu buildings, local security hubs, transportation hubs. They've been here working on it for weeks, they just needed a few more ideas and some guidance on which to go with or not Koga S'Bien -> All right. Sounds good Koga S'Bien -> Everyone good here, weapons wise? tAehjae -> I’ll set these down and return for medical supplies KhreRiovtRex -> The Retor, the Fvillah's palace, Tal Shiar headquarters, the Deihu tAehjae -> :: returns to the room where the others are:: Lerak trPexil -> :: Goes up to t'Temarr :: I was thinking of the virus.. Would its use in gathering intelligence be more effective than disruption at this juncture? Laehval tTemarr -> Why na both? ::To Pexil.:: KhreRiovtRex -> I have a few that I very much, want to capture. As I intend that they will yy'a a very slow, very painful yy'a...... Lerak trPexil -> :: to t'Temarr :: I agree.. Intelligence first.. tAehjae -> :: sets the weapons on a table then leaves again to gather medical supplies:: KhreRiovtRex -> As I said, I will na force any of au to go if au do na agree with our plans KhreRiovtRex -> And I'm serious, if au have any other ideas, do speak up. Au have been mulling over something t’Ksa.......what is au thought? tAehjae -> :: walks up to the officer that showed her to the weapons locker:: Where may I pick up some medical supplies for our meank? M_K_tKsa -> Au can stop with the guilt trip. We said we're in. KhreRiovtRex -> Au sound as if au may have an alternate plan, and if au wish to lead it, ... stops and throws up her hands:: KhreRiovtRex -> Fvaht woman..what is au problem? ::turns and storms off :: Lerak trPexil -> :: to t'Temmar :: This virus will take some time. I should get to work. Koga S'Bien -> S'Alright M_K_tKsa -> ::watches the Khre'Riov stomp off, shakes her head, mutters:: And that would be my problem. :turns her attention back to the others at the table, to make sure she's still following what's going on:: Koga S'Bien -> Not a big fan of motivational speeches, I guess ::to t'A:: Laehval tTemarr -> Ie, au should. ::Nodding in agreement with Pexil. She cracked her knuckles and made a fist again.:: We all should. Lerak trPexil -> :: Goes to their collection of rag-tag computers and processors :: Lerak trPexil -> :: Sits at their 'station' :: Oh elements... PAUSE SIM PAUSE SIM PAUSE SIM Koga S'Bien -> ::paused:: KhreRiovtRex -> Nicely done all, but you all made me talk too much! KhreRiovtRex -> we'll listen to your plans too..and when t'Mahren's back, she's got plans as well and may need to involve several of you in that too! KhreRiovtRex -> questions, comments? KhreRiovtRex -> t'A...you're not allowed to fly any ships or Rac's.... KhreRiovtRex -> Ok, since all are silent, guess you're ready for bed. KhreRiovtRex -> Crew Dismissed

The ship has made its way to the icy planet that Wydown's team had been investigating, and have picked up an active base, most likely the raiders we had been looking for. After other of our shuttles had been attacked and Wydown, Jas and Smith avoiding an active patrol, the Republic is now making its way towards this supposed base. While in route, we picked up readings of what appeared to be 2 vessels departing from this location and are tracking their ion trails. Will has proposed a plan to take 4 shuttles to infiltrate the base with a direct assault to see if we can catch any remaining raiders or get a fix upon where they are headed next The shuttles have departed the Republic and are on the way down to the planet below...

Surprising to all, were that there were both Galae and Tal Shiar officers working together against what appears to be an orchestrated coup. We are about to head into a meeting to find out a bit more of what has been happening.
