Revolt of the Outer Rim - Out of Character

[Archie]

@Misuteri Kenshi all good


I'l make a post tonight, got caught up in some calls this afternoon

 

[Heartshot]

Pretty exciting twist with that last post. I'll try to get a post up before I call it a day.


It looks like we have an opportunity coming up to get any UCM players down to interact with everyone else

 

[SkyHawk MK IV]

If we're going to have this lovely interaction, I'm guessing it would be where Cody and the rest are heading atm to pick up the drones and ship.

 

[Tarmagon]

Nah. That's informational and getting any pc's together so we can board the Megarea. I figure the Meg will encounter that stealth scout and things will get interesting.

Aye quite true. I like things that get intense quickly. :3

 

[Nerdork]

Are we skipping to the rendezvous now that Archie has posted, or should I write up a post? @Tarmagon


(Also, it's a bit past the point, but I like the peaceful plotline idea.)

 

[SkyHawk MK IV]

Tbh, not sure where to jump in. Should I wait or should I start as one of the PD crews on the Meg?

No, go ahead. Once everyone in the shuttle has posted, I'll do a fairly massive post detailing the encounter and resource pickup. I will go ahead and ask permission from all in the shuttle for the ability to return you all to the shuttle after the meeting is over. I figure we'll do the drop off for Cody and Kamille, then the encounter post where, with permission, I'll move everyone back inside and we'll return to the Meg. I figure there will be time for a discussion post before we get there, then crew assignments, though most are pretty self assigned by now.

Either way works. We've got 3 npc slots on the shuttle if you want to be there, or start on the Meg working on one of the pd stations if you want. I can have you meet Cam if you start on the Meg.

Sure, I'll start on the Meg then. Will post tomorrow, need to grab some sleep. It's getting late.</p>

Kind of did my own lil mini-time change, shouldn't effect anyone else since it was just me and NPC Archie.


I do want to mention that the pace of this story needs to pick up, so if you have a CS approved and haven't jumped in, now is absolutely the time. My next post I'm going to close the gap and have everyone interacting with each other. UCM people, if any are still interested, need to make themselves known and get in the "wardroom" I mentioned last IC post, we have a huge UCM shortage so maybe even a new player recruitment effort is in order. Either way, I'm not interested in the outskirts of the action, so I'm getting Rzaya in there regardless of who hops in.


Maybe we could figure in a rendezvous with @Elephantom and @Coward to get everyone in on the same meeting. If done efficiently I think we can pull off a pretty good scene here folks.

 

[SkyHawk MK IV]

Just posted now. Kinda scared that it wasn't enough or that I might have cocked up somewhere heh...

 

[Archie]

@ToolorDie agreed maybe Basilisk can make landfall, Incirlik is chasing it, and the commandos are called into the location.

Henh. We'll see. I'll try and have a post up around lunch. Cam'll come looking for you I'm sure. I'll do the sniper drop off, give them one post to set up, then have the meeting take place and get us back to the Meg. We'll lift and head out ahead of the Basilisk. Who knows, maybe we'll meet up with that stealth patroller.

Aye, sounds like a plan

 

[Tarmagon]

Whoops! Looks like you're on the shuttle instead of the Meg now @Misuteri Kenshi . No biggie, we're nothing if not adaptable eh?

Just realized the same thing. Oh well, as long as we're together at the end, that's fine with me.

Fast roping down to provide overwatch on a high tension business meeting. Yup. Normal.

 

[SkyHawk MK IV]

Just a little bump in the long road, easily fixable really. Might need to change the posts a bit to fit the rp

Please feel free to conduct the drop if you feel like it. Arven will route a countdown to the door starting at drop minus 1, at 30 seconds it will go red, indicating the door should be opened, at 15 seconds it will start to flash yellow, indicating drop imminent. At 0 it will go green, indicating a 5 second window. The last post of the drop sequence will be when Laney gives Arven the all clear, so you guys coordinate what you want to happen. Once I'm cleared, I'll drop the encounter post. That work for everyone?

Ill be hanging back on the ship to check for anything unusual coming our way, if that's alright?

Makes sense. After all, you didn't volunteer for the drop team. I think two snipers are plenty of cover. Besides, we have two gun stations. Laney has port, but that leaves starboard unmanned. I'm sure you know how to use a 20mm autocannon. If you're creative, I imagine that your helmet unit could receive the targeting feed directly from the gun mount.

Indeed, that's this point of the helmet I have. Ability to transfer data, real time from the gun mount itself. Very useful.

Just to add to my last post, will I be informed about the secure channel, so I could give you al heads up?

[/QUOTE]
You're in shuttle, so you have access to the intra-ship. Unless you overheard the conversation, you won't know the channel.
