Kowalski: aaaaanyway...We hired some mercenaries from a planetary firm to bolster our defenses and while it's enough to thwart the occasional raid, it's not going to be enough if they really try to assault us. and frankly besides Skoisau there are multiple issues I could use some extra man power on if you all are here to help.

(@Turax) No, I think destroying a nation entirely would just piss everyone else off at us.

(@Quartz) depends, what are you good at?

Six: Well, lay 'em on us. I'm sure we can help solve at least a couple of your problems.

Turax: "Well, alright then."

~shrugs~

"What kinda other issues?"

Quartz: Well, am not much in the way of military strategy, more about research and exploration, would say...

Kowalski: well first off, some people from my colony went North to explore the ice caps, see if there was anything usable up there. Haven't heard back from them in weeks though, so I could use a team to go up there to try and find them and finish scouting.

Second, raiders. I know it's dirty work but there's vermin out here in the bad lands, and I'm having trouble with a particularly nasty bunch out in an independent village a few kilometers to the east, I've sent some mercs to handle it but it would be nice to know people from centerpoint are taking part.

my third issue is kind of similar but I need some people to go out on the water to guard some salvagers. The beach is a nice place...really really nice...but once you're in the deep blue shit can get weird, including pirates or dangerous wild life.

I've probably got other shit I need to deal with too but that's just what I have off the top of my head in addition to negotiating with Skoisau.

Six: I can help out with the raiders.

Naomi: I'm good for the ice caps!

Oliver: I can... I guess I can help guard the salvagers.

Longram: "I could go with the aquatic operations."

Roy: "Taking the raider busting job."

Turax: "I got a new weapon in dire need of some field testing, so I will go take care of these raiders for you."

Cuddles: "Can I go help with the negotiation? Please?" waii

Kowalski: woah people, I'm not in charge of assigning you to your missions. As far as I'm concerned you're here to help so you'll do what you're good at.

Anyway I'll schedule some transportation, in the mean time, you can either head down to the beach, get to know the land or hang out in the civilian parts of the colony, life there is pretty relaxed compared to here on the outer edge. If you're gonna stay out here though, try not to bug the grunts.

Quartz: Ah, right, of course... Is there any chance of learning more about work in meantime, though?

Bcom Since: Jun, 2014
#41838: Jun 9th 2017 at 4:14:08 PM

Kowalski: about an hour, long range communications...and I mean the kind that transmit to centerpoint are down so I really didn't know 'when' to expect you. Sorry for that.

(@Quartz) well what info do you need?

Turax: "...right."

~he looks at the others again~

"Which of you wanted to go take care of these raiders, again?"

Quartz: Well, distance to place, who exactly we are looking for, how many they are, when we last had contact with them, how much supplies they had at that moment, what we can expect in such an environment...

Kowalski: around 40,000 kilometers from here to the Northern polar region. You can expect consistent below freezing temperatures. As for how many there were, there were 5 of them, some of my best scouts and they had enough supplies to last them three months. It's only been 1 month since they left but it's been two weeks since the last reported check in.

Bcom Since: Jun, 2014
#41846: Jun 9th 2017 at 4:31:31 PM

Kowalski: can't help you there, the team was supposed to be taking notes so that they could come back and tell us everything but the northern reaches are apparently very rarely explored even by the more northern nations.

Turax: "Okay. See, I am about to suggest something, and it might sound very alien to you at first, but... bear with me."

~the tone of his voice becomes dead serious~

"...I suggest we approach this with an actual battle plan." surprised

Six: Planning things out?

Why not? We'll just need the data on target composition.

Kowalski: I unfortunately don't have accurate data. They've got some armor and apparently less advanced mechs, but most of their force is infantry. Most of the people in that village are civilians, but expect them to be untrusting.

(@Quartz) in more ways than you think.
