Freya

Freya leaves her drone by the body of the dead operative (so as to allow it to observe the approaches to the control room) and checks to see what the logged on terminal can do...


I'm in the landing control office and have access to their computers...checking out capabilities now she transmits to the rest of the team

Freya finds she has control of Flight Ops, the outer bay doors, all access doors to/from the hangar (with accessible visual reference from door mounted cams) and hangar environmental controls / life support. There are overrides possible from the Facility Bridge but she might be able to put in a "workaround" to deny that or use the compromised access that she already has to further penetrate the Facility systems.

Freya notes that the ex-duty guy may have been distracting himself with a double bill of entertainment from the Collace based "Grumble Flick Studios" entitled "Sugar Rides Again" and "Sugar Pulls It Off". No doubt titles from the "Adventure" genre...

You're definitely "in" as far as hacking this system goes.

Please pitch the bones once more if you wish to perform further furtive facilitation...

Freya looks at the system and attempts to identify the location of the staff within the building.

Getting the details, she updates the teams battle-computer so that the company member's HUD's update with the information. She checks none (other than the already dead) are too close to her, or heading her way.

Klaus

Leave the bridge to the intel team.

We'll enter the next section via the engineering doorway. (If breaching is needed no point risking that next to fuel storage)

Once we are in manouver by pairs and sweep through the section.

Keep a watch for Ms Pestis she may no longer be friendly, take no chances

Klaus' assault specialists buddy up and then purposefully sweep south then east through the bulkhead and into what may be a "General Purpose / Hab" module. Holding at the first north leading corridor the team drives eastwards. The squad inspects an engineering space and finding no immediate hostiles drives on. A crewman with a mechanic's toolbelt emerges from what looks like an air/raft bay and manages "What the f..." as he reaches for... Two simultaneous suppressed bursts cut him down. One pair pushes laterally through this new avenue of advance as the bulk of the team clear the hab corridor leading east. This takes time but yields two now plasticuffed prisoners IDed as service crewfolk in their smalls. One has superficial and non life-threating contusions that he'll get over.

The assault unit is now oriented north positioned at the crewstation marked "MS" (near square fuel cell) controlling the southern had corridor and all of the air/raft cargo hanger tactically oriented north.

And we have a winner! Re-roll awarded. I'll immediately apply it should you get hit by an energy weapon! If otherwise please simply call it and apply at your own discretion to any "duff" rolls you make!

To absolutely no one's surprise the toast also exists (for a unit with but a modest reputation for the morbid) as "Vive la mort, vive la guerre, vive la Légion Étrangère"... ).

Getting the details, she updates the teams battle-computer so that the company member's HUD's update with the information. She checks none (other than the already dead) are too close to her, or heading her way.

Freya splices the data from her hacked console with that of the team's battle computer display allowing real time display. She mentally notes that whichever of the "thinking soldiers" that went through the bridge and entered the command to leave the Facility's main computer in "neutral" certainly made her job easier.

She's aware that Freddy has manually overridden and locked the western access to the airlock outside her refuge and, covered by the drone, has gone prone in the airlock observing east.

Further penetration of the station's computer system might reveal staff locations using the active Corporate "Time, Motion and Consequences" productivity enhancement program.

Dzofin and T'lia

Dzofin follows after the humans howling as he goes. He will attempt to herd the humans to the east towards the executive area.

Dzofin and T'lia herd their panicked charges eastwards through the warehouse. Dzofin can see a bulkhead hatchway in the middle distance.

He's aware that the pair might now be rather out of tactical contact with the SEMC invasion force.

[Tiglath]

Prerna

Prerna moves her team and herself forward, using her HUD display to issue movement orders as she advances.

Prerna's team drive due east immediately finding a broad east/south corridor and an eastbound hab corridor which her full squad easily clear using a pair per room. Three crew personnel are found abed and detained and restrained with no incident. They are placed immobilized in the main corridor.

Pushing on she arrives outside what appears to be a meeting room near another bulkhead door.

The tail of her team reports "friendlies" at the far end of the east/south corridor this being Klaus' assault squad.

(OOC: You are a dozen squares north of the MS point occupied by Klaus' team / outside the hydroponics bay door).

[Tiglath]

Kit and Frank

Kit and the team will continue to follow the course and once through the next door will start clearing rooms.

Kit's team enter this quad and clear a small room to their right (west) then spend more time clearing a "Hab Area" resulting in two prisoners captured asleep, zip tie cuffed and hustled to the rear.

As per Prerna he hears Klaus' team report in (see above and above) to learn his axis of advance is now clear.

Frank sees all of the above.

Kit and Frank hold as Prerna's squad advances across their front and clears eastwards (see Klaus and Prerna's progress above). Following the tactical advance there is now an emerging unopposed axis of adavance either east behind Prerna's team or south east behind Klaus' team.

Alternatively the crazy Vargr and Flt Lt East (aka T'lia) appear to have cleared the massive warehouse bay to the north.

(OOC: Easy day! )

Please specify an axis of advance for Kit's team.

(OOC: As to positioning (due to effective non tactical/reserve movement through cleared areas) you can place the team anywhere within the current "quad" when declaring your next move/intention.

Likewise Frank can place himself anywhere he likes in the same area).

Dzofin and T'lia

Dzofin follows after the humans howling as he goes. He will attempt to herd the humans to the east towards the executive area.

Dzofin and T'lia herd their panicked charges eastwards through the warehouse. Dzofin can see a bulkhead hatchway in the middle distance.

He's aware that the pair might now be rather out of tactical contact with the SEMC invasion force.

Dzofin calls out to T'lia. "Let's herd them through the warehouse to the hatchway and then take their identification. We can tie them up and use their ID to get us into the next module. We need to use the north entrance to the module so we can surprise the security station. We can lock down engineering from there. A hostage might be helpful." He continues to chase the prey to the east.

Kit

Kit looks to Frank but sees no order coming.

"We are supporting Prerna and her team. Taking all prisoners so they can focus forward. We will be securing the first batch of prisoners in the cargo hold in the next section."

[BackworldTraveller]

Freya quickly works her way through the menus of the computer system until she find a tracking method for those in the base...



...and tags the people as targets for the intruders - quickly checking that Freddie's careful preparations for their defence aren't going to be needed.

Frank

Frank nods at Kit as he orders his team to move up behind Prerna's team. Frank then moves up behind Klaus's team.

Kit holds observing Prerna's team advancing into a hydroponics garden.

But see her post below as Kit sees what she sees!

Also Freya pastes the real time locations of those targets to which you have no LOS onto your tactical HUD.

Please see map and post below!

Please make a combat roll at your discretion.

Meanwhile his squad collect up the current batch of prisoners and zip tie them then place them in the cargo area (at the top of the quadrant with the wide 45 degree corridor).

Klaus

Please see map above

Klaus' team push east from the bottom/southern door into the hydroponics bay. Looking down the east/west running "hedge" of vegetation he sees a squad of four SuSAG security men in sealed vacc suits with ballistic reinforcement. Moving forward into the bay from the opposite hatch.

Two are moving and two providing cover. They are armed with energy weapons and moving with hostile intent.

Please see map above

Freya sees what everyone else sees but in map form and pastes it into the battle computer and onto the officers' tactical HUDs.

She also notes two security guys in sealed vacc suits with laser carbines riding what amounts to a wheeled utility cart. They are heading towards her position (well at least the hangar) via the northern most east/west line of hatches through the cargo bay and heading into the hangar bay.

She has about two minutes max to prepare (four combat rounds).

Prerna's team push east from the topmost/northern door into the hydroponics bay. Looking down the east/west running "hedge" of vegetation she sees a squad of four SuSAG security men in sealed vacc suits with ballistic reinforcement. Moving forward into the bay from the opposite hatch.

Prerna drops to one knee as she brings up her weapon and paints them on her HUD for her team's attention. She aims at the trailing person by the airlock and fires a three-round burst.

Dzofin and T'lia

Please see map above

Dzofin chases the humans eastwards. He and T'lia pursue them out of the cargo bay and into what looks to be a much more defensible / higher security area. All the interior doors here are iris valves. The fearful humans continue laterally eastwards until the first of them presses the stud for an iris valve which opens to reveal a narrow corridor leading ever further east. However, as the crew person steps over the threshold they are struck down by an energy weapon.
Roll of 2d6+2:
, (+2) = 9

Dzofin can see no one about and reckons that the weapons might be mounted above or in the valve itself.

The messy demise of their comrade herds the other two south (showing as pink circles on the map) and they open the large inter quadrant hatch leading to the quadrant below.

Through the now open hatch Dzofin sees a group of three or four human crew types desperately pulling on vacc suits. He also sees another such group further south. They do have energy weapons (high tech laser carbines) laid on the deck nearby but currently seem very much in media res...

One of them sees Dzofin and T'lia and immediately focusses on Dzofin and says "Ohhh, ffffffuuuu...".

T'lia supports her gaussrifle by the pistol grip and stoops to bowl a grenade along the deck towards the enemy group ahead declaring the equivalent of "Frag out" in Gvegh. Dzofin gets understatement but her throw somehow seems a little... uninspired.
