ooc:lots of opportunities for people to hide in the garden, do you want a recon roll?

They didn't show up on my drone's sensors if they are hiding; didn't move when the attack came in. And my Recon ability is a joke. My Sensor Ops is very good though.

(OOC: Yes, please - there is a need.

For those in the pool/park as per the published map: Please make a Recon Roll

As per my understanding this is: Frank, Jess, Prerna and Kit

Just post the rolls not actions because these will be overtaken by immediate events - if you see what I mean...

At least I do... probably...

NB Freya is currently off this map in the "sun lounger area" to the south adjacent to the outside "glass wall".

BackworldTraveller please feel free to amend her location as per the above in case of my poor communication ).

Frank

Recon (1): [2d6+1]=5+1=6

additional +1 from INT if applicable.

Prerna

Roll[2d6]=6 + Recon-1 = 7

Kit

"Freya, there is no need for you to hack the doors when I have the key. Please understand while your team has restricted access to the Guard side, I do not."



Recon roll - (No Recon Skill but Int of B) [_2d6]=(2+2)=4

Jess is Cavalry, she's used to using Sensors for Recon, not MkI Eyeball.

[2d6]=5

Edited to remove incorrect map!

"Freya, there is no need for you to hack the doors when I have the key. Please understand while your team has restricted access to the Guard side, I do not."

Kit will know that this "bay" was being used as a temporary jail for POWs (pirates).

Updated map:
The RED door SW corner (leading into the Guard "side" of the accommodation) is the deadlocked door to the (empty) jail.

The "new" blank area is the front sun lounger bay - also empty.

OOC:

Sitrep

The merc unit has defeated the initial insurgent assault, cleared its internal lines (recapturing the escaped pirates in the process) and secured the VIPs and civilian staff.

A counter attack to relieve the Guard accommodation is decided upon and the available manoeuvre units are currently gathered in the southern area of the merc quarters in the vicinity of the hangar.

Available forces:

Col Cross
Maj Nayar
QSM Henker (wounded)
Recon Team: Baker and Easy
Cavalry Troop: Cpl Charlie, Troopers Harry, King & Mike

Additional available combat elements:
Kit ex Imperial Military but unarmoured and only carrying a sidearm.
Dog (the only combat capable member of Skip's Team)

Detached Duty:
Sgt Beauregard Dawson on aid to the Guard
Camp Freddie minder for the “itinerant in a warzone” Miss Freya

Left out of Battle/POW security:
Sgt Caxton, Trooper Oscar, Pte Love

Currently not engaged / VIP Security:
HQ Lt Voss, Sgt Dubs
1st Squad: George, Johnny, Nuts and Route One (no squad leader)

SHMC Command (Frank, Prerna, Jess)

Command will need to task forces to the advance into the central “pool/park” area.

These will be via the five west leading hatches (see joined up map in the images thread) these are (now) numbered 1 to 5 north to south. E.g. Hatch 1 is by the Med bay while 4 is in the East/West corridor above the hangar.

All will be well aware that the unit has no where near enough strength to do “all of the things all of the time” but has enough fighting power to “work the problem”.

OOC: Part of that process may be freeing up some fighting strength from the current “Sitrep” as above.

Kit

Despite his concern regarding the safety of folk in the Guard accommodation Kit has seen enough on the Merc side to realise that should he encounter a ten man group of fanatics alone and unarmoured in a CQB environment he will become simultaneously Mission Killed and Pedigree Chum* in short order.

(OCC: Tactics Roll / Military Knowledge on Kit's behalf - tactically he's running into a burning building (possibly literally). He needs the right tools to achieve his aim. Now, where in this environment would he find a "bunch of tools"??? Steady now - answer carefully!

*Well known brand of UK dog food.

And... since you are Pacific Time you might not immediately get the (imminently appropriate?) tactical acronyms FISH and CHIPS. Much better than MOUT or indeed FIBUA - which both sound strangely medical... )

Prerna takes her team through the entrance by the fountain in a triangle formation with herself at the apex, Baker to the left, and Easy to the right.

Freya
If you're interested, I can bring Freddie and enter the garden from the south-west rather than continuing west.

Frank

Seeing Prerna beginning to move "Sorry Major, one moment..." he turns to Kit "Major Ghoshal, can you briefly confirm what's behind each of the doors on the other side, and which of them is the best option for entry. Also, do you have a comms unit? if so we should loop you in"

ooc: If Kit has a comms unit then Frank will have Dubbs hook him in as a visitor on the Officers channel

"Ms Ingridsdottir, If you and Freddie can remain where you are and keep watch on the garden for us then that would be appreciated. I'd rather you didn't move further until we are sure the area is secure"
