Mission #14 - A New Ally?

[Trax]

"We've got a control room or something down here." Trax said to the others.

[OOC: Trax is staying at the edge trying to keep out of sight if someone looks up.]

[Niil Spaar]

Niil whispered, "Might be this base's C-Three center.  Can you see any Intel squids down there?"

[GM Craig]

There are about twenty people down there at the consoles on the floor, all wearing Imperial uniforms with basic small sidearms. Only the four guards carry heavier weaponry and are wearing blast armour.

This could very well be an intelligence centre of some sort, but you can't tell an intel tech from a standard army officer at this range.

[Actions?]

[Trax]

"Can't tell from here." Trax replied to Niil.

[Jex]

"Can we take out these windows?"

[Niil Spaar]

Niil gave the windows a dubious eye.  "Transparisteel and shielding to boot.  A few shaped charges might do the trick, but I'm thinking we'd have better luck hot-wiring the door into that room." 


OOC:  Just how much of a demo charge do we figure it would take to blow out one of these windows?

[GM Craig]

[OOC: More than you have, they're intended to be blast resistant. You're much more likely to get through the door than the windows.]

[Jex]

"Then let's get moving on this. Someone should at least check where that other door goes to."

[Collan]

Collad piped up, "I'll take a look at the other door."

[Trax]

"Mariah, think you can open that door?" the spec said motioning to the smaller door at the end of the hall.

[OOC: I'm thinking the smaller door down the right would be a better first choice.  I think that one is on the same side as the blast door Trax sees down below.]

[Niil Spaar]

Niil motioned to Jex.  "Jex, give Collan backup for checking that door to the left; the last thing we need is to get caught in a cross-fire if there's troopers or turrets behind both doors.  Mariah, be careful with that door on the right; they might have rigged it."

OOC:  BTW, can we notice any cameras/audio pickups in this stretch of hallway?

[GM Craig]

The door to the left seems sealed. There is no panel on this side to even access the door. The door to the right does have a panel. It is also locked down, but Mariah can likely get it open with a little work.

Out on the floor of the control centre, you still appear to be unnoticed. There is some activity however. Four more guards are now standing next to the doorway on the far end of the room, and appear now to be trying to get inside. They have the panel apart, and are working on slicing the controls. They don't appear to be having any success.

[Jex]

Jex applies his vibro-blade door opening device to the door on the left.

[OOC - Just testing to see if the door can be easily carved open, not going to spend a lot of time on it though]

[Niil Spaar]

Niil's eyes narrowed as he saw the troopers in the room below trying to break through a door.  "Anyone like to bet that our objective's behind that door down there?" Niil muttered to no one in particular.

[GM Craig]

Jexian's vibroblade barely scars the surface. The door is obviously armoured - it will take some significant effort to get through that door.
