SWS - Coelecanth/Gas Cannon

Yana (via remote link): Okay, people. We've likely pissed Echo off something fierce, given our last few colony raids.

In light of this, I recommend that we take no prisoners on this mission. Whatever aliens you see, terminate them with extreme prejudice!

Princeps: All right, people! Clear the doors, let the Coelecanth out!
