Dzofin dons his filter mask and trots quickly toward the airlock nearest them along the back of the facility. "We should go through the lounge area as well in the flanking move."

Freya follows the colonel and elements heading for the A/L by the Crew Lounge and Control Room. After using the low gravity to her advantage in moving the gear, she leaves it in a pile to provide some cover from rounds from the forward lock.

Klaus
Klaus and Naffo cautiously open the door and move towards the engineering bridge
The rest of the squad move into the lounge securing the area for the arrival of the rest of the assault team
Keep alert, neutralise anything not SEMC, keep an eye out for that crazy Vargr as well. He seems useful.

Dzofin call out. "Let's flank them!" He will sprint through the waiting area down to the far airlock. He will go into the far airlock and cautiously open it into the bridge area.

Dzofin finds himself accompanied by T'lia. In her combat armour she doesn't move at all like a Flight Lieutenant but somone much more... predatory. Dzofin enters the big airlock with Prerna's snipers but as this team go straight through (notional south) he and T'lia turn left (east) and enter the long "Waiting/Observation" area. As the air lock doors open T'lia says
"Cover left" in Gvegh. Dzofin has no immediate targets but hears T'lia gauss rifle sigh and shredded pieces from a foldout "sheet reader" patter to the soft flooring. The torn reading device falls over the remains of the face and upper torso of the person in SuSAG shipboard dress who was studying it.
"On, on! Targets front!" He looks ahead to see a knot of five station personnel gathered in front of the vending area. Two wear soft armour vests and helmets over their coveralls and have holstered sidearms. Dzofin reckons the carbines on the chairs nearby are theirs too.
As he and T'lia jog forward one of the armed men notices them focusing particularly on Dzofin and, half choking on his snack, shouts
"Ohhh... oh, fek pirates!"
How will Dzofin confront this casual speciesism?

Shadowed by Freddy Freya enters the air lock between Control and Crew Lounge. She sees that the iris valve to Control is open and a male in SuSAG crew coveralls wearing a headset is halfway through it
"Awright Billy - got me Frankie Vaughan an' snout?" He rallies from stunned realization
"You're not Billy!" and bolts back towards the Control room.

Prerna and Kit
Having cleared the Fighter bay Reda Siegsson moves the remainder of Klaus' team north.
He sees a male in SuSAG crewdress run into the corridor junction and collapse with massive chest trauma to the audible "phut" of hardround suppressors. Three SuSAG personnel eating a meal in the mess hall are shot at their seats one managing to stand before all are cut down by efficient bursts of suppressed rifle fire. Reda winces as the over penetrating high velocity rounds noisily tear up the galley behind.
Then a confident Collace accent cautions " 'Ware friendlies right!" and a gruff female Collace accent then softly challenges "Oi oi!" Reda Siegsson replies with the password of the day "Saveloy!" adding "Filthy heathen things!"
As her team efficiently clears the Mess Hall Prerna follows up behind Easy and at the junction sees most of Klaus' team (but not Klaus) standing ready to her right (south).
Kit's team follow up behind Scout/Recon and hear them briefly engage. His section, burdened by breaching charges and spare ammo, then stacks up behind Scout/Recon. According to his map the Rond Facility Bridge is now directly ahead (east).
All team leaders believe SEMC still retains the tactical initiative / surprise.
OOC: You are all at the "T" junction (on both maps below Lounge / Mess Hall) Bridge to your East.
Actions please.

Klaus
Klaus and Naffo move (notional east) towards the Bridge. Naffo casually reports "Body - busy girl". Klaus sees that where the corridor turns a corner ahead a SuSAG crewperson has been killed by having their head driven into the corridor wall with the apparent strength of a steel press. A local tactical sweep reveals that the office and small engineering room north and south are empty. The corridor leading east past the lockers is empty.
The rest of his team under Reda Siegsson report junction with Major Prerna's Scout Snipers (and therefore that the access to the Bridge north of your current position is secured).
Naffo gives a shortest warning whistle and indicates two enemy personnel are approaching Klaus' current position (tip of the arrow on map) via the corridor to your north. The shortest glance reveals two crewmen with soft armour and helmets over coveralls. They carry snub carbines and sidearms but are tactically unalert and are discussing what they will do when imminently off duty. Naffo ducks back to the airlock (above where the arrow passes through it) and aims at the corridor from where crewmen approach.
All team leaders believe SEMC still retains the tactical initiative / surprise.
Actions please!

Kit will have the Sgt's squad supporting Prerna's team until we get to the next T intersection. We will flank out through the Waiting/Observation area and start clearing the upper area and meet Prerna's team on the other side of the door.
(see proposed route)

Trusting his team, Frank decides to shadow T'lia, following a few feet behind . This also gives him a chance to see the Dzofin at work, after hearing about the Vargrs exploits in the field.
He will support T'lia and Dzofin in taking down any threats (i.e armed individuals) they come across with his gauss rifle. (but will stick with T'lia if the two split up)

Whoever it was isn't having a good day. Grouped nicely by the look. She dashes forward to ensure the door doesn't lock as it starts to close.
(Bonuses for Life Detection looks to be +4 which could give me some idea of what's behind that door)
The space beyond may be occupied. No time even for a deep breath if it is - or even may be!

Klaus
Klaus hunkers down as tight to the wall as possible waiting for the pair to get in optimal position for him and Naffo to take them in a crossfire.
If they show any sign of noticing him or Naffo immediately open fire with suppressed SMGs
Firing:
Rolls modified by skill & dex not range/tactical mods
Klaus +2 skill +1 dex
Naffo +1 skill

Dzofin immediately howled and charged the five men with his submachine gun in one hand and his newer submachine gun in the other. He howled, baring his teeth and shouting. "
The Kforuzeng pirates are upon you! I am Dzenae Ungogz, 'Anuekhs An Gzoug - the Flame that Burns' and my band of corsairs and mercenaries will slaughter you! Surrender or we will tear your bodies open with our teeth and claws and eat your still beating hearts!" If any of them move toward a weapon he will auto fire his silenced SMG.

The team pairs up and clears rooms. Prerna pairs with Uncle clearing the office and single stateroom below the Galley from which Rifleman Dog from Kit's section (looking like cheek pouches are a new evolution and with is ballistic plate covered in egg yolk) is already escorting the cook.
"Three!" Baker and George parallel Easy and XRay as they crash through the northern stateroom doors soon echoing
"Clean!" Simultaneously Beau and Ink provide mixed messaging as Beau manages
"Ladies, I'd be obliged if you can find some robes". Meanwhile Ink raises her trench sweeper and greets the new prisoners with
"¡Fuera perras!"
The approach to the access door to the "Bridge Quadrant" is cleared and secured.
Note the construction of the Bridge "Citadel" - it has an armour glass window to front and iris valve controlled access.

Firing:

Klaus +2 skill +1 dex

And both +3 Autofire and +1 Aim/Covering Fire
The pair of SuSAG Guards amble down the corridor until they reach the junction but are then conveniently stopped dead in their tracks by the sight of the near headless but absolutely faceless body of the SuSag crewperson. As they freeze Naffo and Klaus open fire. Naffo hits his target more than once and Klaus hits both at least twice. In the space of a suddenly interrupted heartbeat the HEAP low velocity rounds have devastating effect shattering limbs and blasting into and through soft armour. The two targets are very messily dead before they hit the ground. Their falling bodies and dropped weapons make more noise than the suppressed SnubSMGs.
Reda Siegsson comms Klaus states
"Scout/Snipers advance secured. They are prepping to breach Bridge Quadrant. Send new orders".

Freya's gauss rifle shreds her fleeing target with instant fatality leaving her open access to the single workstation control room beyond. A room which she knows is empty of other human minds even as she enters. While Freddy redundantly clears the fresher and closet to take post at the door Freya sees that she now owns a logged on workstation. A moment's appreciation tells her this is "Hangar Control" with immediate domain links to "Local Traffic Control" and "Station Management".

Prerna puts down her ACR and unlimbers her heavy gauss rifle.
"Recon Team ready for support," she calls on both her team channel and the command channel.
"I can try taking out the windows, if needed."
