Battlegroup 3/13 - The Storm Blessed: Comms

[edgy ember]

this is where my autistic ass wants an 8 day week, 4 weeks a month

[cunning aurora]

alright imma change my order to give you a sup

may as well, i got the spare movement

[edgy ember]

not gonna complain about you refilling it

[cunning aurora]

@lean berry Updated my movement

[edgy ember]

Anyway, I will see you good folks tomorrow

[cunning aurora]

[hollow canopy]

:D Gud nite Engi Fren

Did we get all our orders in?

[lean berry]

Just missing SKDMRK

[untold pine]

Hey guys, how are things today

[hollow canopy]

As good as it gets in the frontline. Orders are closing soon and some people are finishing up their orders

The fighting seems like it'll get more hecetic, but not quite more intense as more friendlies are dropping in. A few key plans are in motion for the best-case scenario, so safe to assume at least one of them will fail or breakdown during Midrounds.

[real crest]

HEY STORM

WHEREDDYA WANT AN MBT

Jesus it is insane to see how quiet it is here. Sorry for shouting in, I did say I'd give a shout here...

[hollow canopy]

:O

X3

[heady plaza]

NW, SSW, and Maybe 1 on NE.

[hollow canopy]

Sorry, most people are, err... Dead... Anyway, North-West or South-side can take an MBT

[heady plaza]

QUICK ENNI NEEDS MEDICAL SUPPORT STAT-

[real crest]

I am but the one

I didn't want to get down in a HVTOL, but it was that or leaving @distant flint out of a job AGAIN

Which I am not about to do, he's getting a job, whether I die or not is irrelevent, he'll have played his part

[heady plaza]

HAT drops are guarenteed, right?

[real crest]

More precisely:

I am an MBT, getting dropped by an HVTOL, which unless we get shot down by the ennemy orbital, is sure to arrive down and get here no matter what

[lean berry]

Current Storm Blessed Turn 4 Map:

[hollow canopy]

X3 Well, alright then. T13C's suggestions are the most informed and up to date, so whatever they say is probably best.

[real crest]

Thus, where do you wish to have an MBT ladies and gentlemen ?

[heady plaza]

@lean berry weigh in?

[real crest]

Alright, NW/SSW or NE, take your pick t13c!

[heady plaza]

SSW: 3318 West, facing South would be my recommendation.

You'll be taking fire from... 4 units, but unless most crit, you'll be fine.

[lean berry]

This is my recommendation as well

[real crest]

looks

5 units, 2 vtols, 2 infantries ?

You guys think I'm Icarus ?! 🤣

5 ennemy units, 2 allied vtol 2 allied infantries*

Damn I signed up to get air dropped not to get air killed 😅

[hollow canopy]

Then you're Air-dropping into the wrong AO

[lean berry]

You could go NW

Land at 3216

[real crest]

I'm airdropping because it's either that or our HVTOL not getting a job

I still would VERY MUCH like living.

[lean berry]

Between Angel and STAINZ

[real crest]

Better idea, I could be nearby the big ball in the middle and use my range for the canon.

[lean berry]

You'll have your flanks coverd

[heady plaza]

Safer Option: 3216 NE, In front of ENNI, Facing WSW. Taking fire from 3 units, only 1 possible hit.
Or 3216 SE, facing NW. Between ANGEL and STAIN

[hollow canopy]

Same. =v= I think South-side is also gonna get littered with friendly forces that aren't from Storm, so ideally you won't be alone.

[real crest]

That was literally my initial ground plan.

Not saying it's bad

Just saying that was my idea originally so yay ? xDD

[lean berry]

Enni would appreciate the armor

[hollow canopy]

I would! :D Dem's dah facts!

[lean berry]

*armored support

[real crest]

Oh

It's the pathfinders guy that's in storm blessed ! :o

[heady plaza]

critically wounded, 1 FS unit

[hollow canopy]

Ya, I'm in Storm Blessed. :o And down to just Squad Lead

[real crest]

Okay alright, that seems fair to me

in front of enni, got it

[heady plaza]

4 of our 7 remaining inf are Critically wounded (1-2 FS), and a 5th is heavily (<=3FS remaining).

[lean berry]

We have zero 4-5 FS squads

😅

[distant flint]

jesus

[quartz bridge]

I also thought the bots distribute fire among all our VTOLs. However it goes, I'm tryna protect Rhino and the other SW ground forces. Maybe I die, we'll see.

[lean berry]

The concern is that all the VTOLs in the SW Saber formation are in the air and therefore untargetable by the bot squads thus leaving you on the ground somewhat alone (aside from Rhino, Catcher, and Aurora)

[quartz bridge]

yep, I could be in trouble

[frank ore]

Im hovering so I should be fine if it's just plain infantry, if you want to moove I can drop somewhere else

HVTOL LANDING BABYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

[hollow canopy]

x3

Omg, you're like, landing in front of me

[real crest]

yes

but i'm ahving second thoughts literally now

and hunter pointed out i can land behind and advance in front

does that feel better ?

cuz for me it does a ton xD

@hollow canopy

I need to know 🤣

[hollow canopy]

:O

Ya, go ahead

I've got good odds at surviving, just you being in the area helps, you don't need to body-block for me. =v=

[real crest]

welll....

second thoughts revoked lol

if i do land back and advance the bots north-east can shoot my fckin arse

soooooooooooooooooooooooooo I guess this is happening now lol

[hollow canopy]

Apiary should be behind me and they're at Full Strength, so...

[real crest]

oyetheyare

[heady plaza]

Apiary is facing NE.

[hollow canopy]

They're facing North-East, this map is outdated

[real crest]

a!!

[hollow canopy]

a

[real crest]

a

more seriously we also got a light mech flanking aswell when he'll get dropped on the starport

...i think this is fine

I hope this is fine.

I DONT KNOW I just feel like advancing from behind won't do much either but i dont wanna die either

aaaa

[lean berry]

It is what it is

[hollow canopy]

From what I'm seeing, it should be fine. We know the Bots are going to just path to the Starport, so you know where they're gonna go and they'll ideally only shoot from the start of their movement (Or until they get into range for units that aren't in range of anyone at the start of their turn)

Brbs, ration tiem

[real crest]

good meal

[narrow sand]

all I know is I am likely to die, but I have had the devils luck so far, so who knows

[real minnow]

Unfinished, but a good representation of our intentions.
Will be more complete tonight.

[hollow canopy]

I had rations (They were just a variety of candies)

[heady plaza]

T13C had snacks. Before it blew up.

[hollow canopy]

^<

[heady plaza]

... they were mostly untouched-

[hollow canopy]

D: The worse

Although it would be funny to see a VTOL have like, bags of instant popcorn so that if they ever get shot down, it explodes into popcorn

[upbeat lily]

Just waiting to see if I’m going to become a halo pelican or a helldiver pelican xD

[hollow canopy]

x3

[rigid cape]

Do Helldiver pelicans have a longer then 15 minutes life expectancy?

[ember snow]

MMm, now there's a deployment with some chest hair. Saving Commander Enni!

[narrow sand]

glorious, would help us immensilty

[hollow canopy]

X3

[lean berry]

Good to know.

I've just finished up the last order for the Storm Blessed Turn 4 Tac-map

If no errors or modifications are needed I'll post it in #1386030427130564769 ~ 8 hours

Please forward/link this message so other can see it

[heady plaza]

REDWALL Plans.

[kind oyster]

@lean berry did you also say that Hound Plans to pick up/yoink some of the Bots weapons as they move into the building?

[real minnow]

Current Complete one. (Will check it tomorrow). It's high-res for zoominess. Got a lot going on.

[full lagoon]

Anyone else got there finger toes and anything else they can cross crossed?

[lean berry]

I can note that down easily enough

[kind oyster]

Thank you!

[lean berry]

Look good, @kind oyster ?

[kind oyster]

Good copy Command

[lean berry]

Posting

[narrow sand]

yup

[narrow sand]

tiger is a life saver on that flank

[slow hazel]

Hey storm, just saw your actions for turn 4 and they look good. We are planning on docking on the SE landing pad turn 5 and then moving east to clear the three kind of major buildings in that area. If anyone in that area needs medical assistance or engineering assistance let us know and we can try to arrange something for turn 5 when we touch down. We have 3 medics and 1 engineer

[lean berry]

We'll see if the 4 unknowns end up flanking him, but yeah

[lean berry]

Good to know. We'll probably need medics. All but two of our INF are < 4FS

[slow hazel]

That’s kind of what I figured. I would be more than happy to try and arrange some heals for that turn. I’m not sure exactly how far we will be able to get from the orbital on the landing turn so you might have to stay within a radius of that SE landing pad if you need heals immediately

Pinged them now to suggest the idea and see what they want to do. I’m guessing I won’t hear back from them for a while but I’ll keep you updated

[hollow canopy]

:D Frens

[slow hazel]

Has Hound down to 2 FS? It wasn’t mentioned in midrounds but it looks like it

[lean berry]

Yes

Not everything is in the mid-rounds

[slow hazel]

Alright ty

[storm basin]

It was technically

He just didn’t mention it

There’s a pic of Hound getting shot

[slow hazel]

They are right in our operation area so if they want to take a more conservative action this turn we can get them heals next turn easily. We were planning on clearing that small building with overwhelming force anyways since our infantry can’t get very far turn 5

I just don’t want them to die this turn breaching that building if they don’t have to

[cunning aurora]

Orders are already in

Too late to change

[slow hazel]

Rip😅

[hollow canopy]

:o I think you're in the wrong channel

[cunning aurora]

Yep -_-

[kind oyster]

1. i really need to get away,
2. we need Intel on what's Right beside of the Star Port
3. I saw an Opportunity to Steal something and maybe use against the Enemy. (Something i got from playing too much Strategy games with capturing mechanics)

Yes, one of my favorite Factions from C&Cverse was the GLA

[little grail]

I love the CAS formations that are building up right now

[hollow canopy]

:o You're yellow nao. :O

[little grail]

I am!

[hollow canopy]

Oh, yellow is Patron. =v=

[little grail]

Yup

[hollow canopy]

Neat. :D

[storm basin]

Nice to see fluffle expected the enemy descent

That reduces the risk of losing any VTOLs further

[hushed trout]

Yeah, looks like we've been saved from those fighters

[cunning aurora]

we know that was gonna happen, but it's good to get confirmation

[kind oyster]

We still have Drop Pods to Deal with, don't be too comfortable

[cunning aurora]

drop pods aren't gonna hit any VTOLs

[kind oyster]

we have some Landed VTOLs

and tbh It would be hilarous

but again its drop pods we dont know whats in those

so the warning is we will get shot but we dont know how

[cunning aurora]

they're taking off. i really hope they aren't targetable for that split second they're there

[upbeat lily]

I don’t think we’ll have any drop pods coming in, we don’t see any robot heads on the map

[little grail]

From what I understand targeting like that depends on where you finish your turn, since enemy intentions are done after player intentions

[lean berry]

Negative.

Enemy and player intentions are resolved simultaneously

[real minnow]

How's it going in here?
We're all sweating bullets over the bomber's apparent lack of an ability to attack the butt

It's gonna come down to Black Pearl's autocannon shot.

[lean berry]

🙏

[real minnow]

In the worst case, our HATs are still in range to paradrop.

[hollow canopy]

Even with the Worse Case, the reinforcements might still be enough.

[real minnow]

Did any of your VTOLs end up docking with Picket Line?

[cunning aurora]

don't think so

[real minnow]

The bay was crewed and ready for repairs just in case

We'll be staying for at least one more turn, so that's an option for next turn.

[hushed trout]

Ouch, Hounds took some heavy casualties

[trail spade]

Wonder where is that arty that hit him.

[hollow canopy]

Wasn't Hounds down to 2FS from the last turn?

No, wait, we recorded wounded...

Dang, even with Sandbags, they lost 4?

[slow hazel]

Yes they were down to 2 FS last turn. Didn’t take any damage this time

[hollow canopy]

I could've swore Hounds was fine, I remember the Medics didn't need to worry about the South-East...

[slow hazel]

This was from before the midrounds was posted

Because they’re luckily alive I am going to try to contact them to get one of our medics to them next turn

So no worries

[real crest]

I did have hounds in green on the map I did earlier for you guys 😅

But no matter, can't keep up with everything, best of luck hound

[hollow canopy]

That is true. =v= And they're should be pretty safe tucked up in the building anyway

[real crest]

Looks at [midrounds](#midround-events message)

...you sure ? 😰

[hollow canopy]

As long as HOUNDS isn't a robot, I think they won't come to blows. =v=

[real crest]

...they don't look too friendly

[upbeat lily]

Just a mother concerned about her pups

[torpid olive]

Stay still. Their eyes can only see movement.

[kind oyster]

Well Atleast I be sure I'll be alive. I think till the end of this round, and we also learned that the Bots Use High Temp integrated LasGuns, would suggest some of the Engineers to inspect it more, or if you fancy to, Repurpose their bodies

[untold pine]

How’s the war?

[kind oyster]

well you know, more than half dead, nearly got bonked with a frying pan, nearly got cooked with a Lasgun

[hollow canopy]

x3

[heady plaza]

STORM is at 45% combat effectiveness on the ground. 90% for air, at least.

[hollow canopy]

Dang, we're missing 55% effectiveness in Tremor?

[lean berry]

Because of missing FS, yes

[heady plaza]

this is inlcuding SF and CbtENGI

We'd be worse off if it only counted INF.

[untold pine]

Hey, atleast we aren’t at 0%

[heady plaza]

You know what's hilarious? I'm going to have T13C (the VTOL) be salvaged again and given a new crew.

And it will still somehow be in better condition that that bucket of bolts you call a VTOL.

[lean berry]

Air 90% Combat Effective (18/20 VTOLs alive)
I would actually put Ground at 59% Combat Effective (30/62 Combat-FS + 2 MBTs, or effectively 7&⅔/13 effective units)

[lean berry]

Mhm. We're ~41% INF Combat Effective.

[hollow canopy]

=v=

[heady plaza]

Our MBT-AA is occupied with enemy air assets, though, so... I wouldn't count it in direct ground engagements.

[untold pine]

Not if I salvage it first lol

Talon 1 could use a new door

[lean berry]

Not currently, no. Aut1arm can hit ground targets as well.

[storm basin]

It’s just not as strong as an cannon

[hushed trout]

Normally the AA MBT would prioritise air tragets, but seeing as the bot fighters have been intercepted in space, it will now engage ground targets

[cunning aurora]

I believe the fighters are still coming to the surface

but are just unable to shoot anything down here

so the AA will likely shoot Fighters

[full lagoon]

Am i dead or an ace yet?

[storm basin]

Neither

[cunning aurora]

Neither

[lean berry]

Good odds you'll get a kill this turn

All the bot fighters got hit by Fluffle fighters

[cunning aurora]

^^

[lean berry]

The only case I can think of for Aut1arm not getting a Harasser kill is if they end up not dropping to atmo or all drop out of range

[cunning aurora]

Idk where they'd drop where they can attack VTOLs but be out of range of

[lean berry]

Technically the Northwest

But they wouldn't know that any of our VTOLs are going there

Most likely they're heading closer to the starport

[hollow canopy]

Frens

[storm basin]

Hello

[hollow canopy]

:D Hello Engineer fren

[storm basin]

Yes

[strange sigil]

Hello gang

[hollow canopy]

:D Fren

[untold pine]

We are all now just waiting on the anxiety fueled moment of

[lean berry]

Yep, pretty much

[strange sigil]

Yall know when midrounds are coming?

[untold pine]

No idea

[little grail]

https://tenor.com/view/incredibles-bob-parr-the-incredibles-gif-7194125

[untold pine]

Agreed

Shack just wants to build the anticipation

[heady plaza]

Midrounds out!

REDWALL INBOUND!

[untold pine]

Can’t wait for the gun in Talon 1 to miss fire and we just start throwing wrenches

[lean berry]

Yes!!

[storm basin]

Here we goooo

OH YES

[heady plaza]

fuck, I should've foreseen this. Should've pushed to get Lemmings off the pad as well.

[little grail]

Dude, its okay. You did a great job doing air traffic control

[strange sigil]

RAHHBTHERES MIDROUNDS

RAHHH

Wait what's this stuff with red wall

[hollow canopy]

It’s fine, there’s more than enough units for that front anyway

[strange sigil]

I haven't been paying attention

[heady plaza]

They are dropping in alongside Hammer and Atlas.

[hollow canopy]

Red wall is landing at the Starport

[strange sigil]

Ouhh shit yeah

I remember now

[heady plaza]

Currently BGs/TFs operating in AO ELIM GROUND:

STORM
ATLAS
HAMMER
REDWALL

Projected to join next turn: PHALANX, ULTRA, RABBIT.

[feral yoke]

About to get real busy at Elim

[storm basin]

I can’t wait to get 40 people yelling they need repairs… send help

[hollow canopy]

Oh ya… Still gonna need recovery time too

[storm basin]

Wait… my chances of being in a blue on blue action has increased dramatically…

Well let’s pray no idiot goes gun ho in the bloody starport

[strange sigil]

Once that enemy orbital is swatted out of the sky I can start transport to the hospital ships

If needed

Which it probably will be

[untold pine]

Watch on crash on top of us

[strange sigil]

Good news: the hospital ship is descending!
Bad news: the hospital ship is descending!

[heady plaza]

Don't worry, I'm going to be helping coordinate all those requests.

[storm basin]

Thanks, quartermaster

[dull marten]

I think I caught an image of the my squad being back to full operational status

[cunning aurora]

Yep

Look at the right one

[dull marten]

Anyhow

This bg was an amazing idea

[storm basin]

I love being the side character

[storm basin]

Literally I fully bet I won’t even be mentioned again

PRIVATE ENNI GET DOWN!

-# Had to

[cunning aurora]

The heal has to come in

@little grail where are you?! Enni is in danger

[strange sigil]

Nah pedro61s on that

He ain't going to let enni down

[storm basin]

Nah plot twist Pedro61 was just a figure of our imagination

@ Enni

[hollow canopy]

X3

[storm basin]

https://tenor.com/view/saving-private-ryan-gif-22388197

basically last turn

[hollow canopy]

Ya… ya…

[upper depot]

Ya, that’s how it felt when that mid round came out

[strange sigil]

2 vtols shot down, 2 infantry units completely wiped, and a large majority of infantry losing quite a bit of FS

All in one turn

Not looking good for the rest of the campaign

No wonder we are getting 5 req

[upper depot]

Ya, hell of an entrance, only silver lining is we messed the bots up pretty good too

[strange sigil]

And we got our first objective of taking the starport

And not to jinx anything but it seems we can hold it too

[upper depot]

With Redwall here, no doubt

[strange sigil]

So once those ai carriers get here the rest of armco can deploy

[cunning aurora]

honestly the dome not giving cover absolutely screwed us

[strange sigil]

Yeah, I assumed cause its a structure we'd have cover

[upper depot]

Those power armors infantry look pretty cool…

[strange sigil]

They even have logi trucks

Damn

I'm impressed

[storm basin]

They had the space

we don’t

We;re on a tight budget
And it’s even tighter due to our losses

[upper depot]

Huh, a bit early for logi, especially with all the battles still going on

[strange sigil]

Yeah, that's what im thinking

Must mean they are either willing to risk their logi or feel safe enough deploying it with all their units

[upper depot]

Hope they have extra rations that fall off the back of the truck

[quartz bridge]

The whole BG has to deploy at once, and that sector was relatively 'safe'.

[storm basin]

Even arty

[cunning aurora]

I mean what are the logi going to do? Twiddle their thumbs?

[untold pine]

Support is here

[upper depot]

Oh hell ya, artillery

[storm basin]

Also since I missed the start:

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1382040199797801031/1389992659577471100/Shack_is_typing.gif

[cunning aurora]

I love how that's become a meme 😄

[storm basin]

When you created it, it became a meme

[hollow canopy]

Gonna see it as an emote in due time I’m sure =v=

[storm basin]

Tbh I feel like I don’t wanna be present in any mid round event

It feels like bad luck to be mentioned

[hollow canopy]

Usually when the focus is on you, it’s never because you’re having such a grand old time…

[feral yoke]

I've been present in a couple if midrounds in multiple campaigns, still alive

[cunning aurora]

guys the port is going to be extremely crowded very soon

thoughts on healing up and leaving next turn?

[storm basin]

I kinda agree

I don’t want to be here

[upper depot]

Ya land even more will show up next turn

[cunning aurora]

we don't necessarily need to leave the map, but leave that AO

[slow hazel]

Please if you are in a safe position move outwards to clear a space for the incoming BG’s😝

[hollow canopy]

Ya, I wanna get healed up and back into VTOLs, we’ll need to be ready to reinforce someone else getting into trouble

[slow hazel]

Phalanx is landing east side btw

[vast lodge]

The question is where and please can we have a another day before d day mk2

[strange sigil]

No rest for the wicked

[cunning aurora]

Just checking vibes for now

If you have ideas on where we could go feel free to share

[vast lodge]

I’m waiting for mid round to finish see what left first then plan

[storm basin]

Remember we got an extra day

[upper depot]

Ya, true

[hollow canopy]

Not quite yet, initial thoughts are the North-West Giga Question mark (which will certainly be more trouble) or that convoy down south-east

[cunning aurora]

?

[strange sigil]

If redwall seems good to hold the starport on their own we could start planning our move to another area

[storm basin]

Extra day of planning

[cunning aurora]

why do we have an extra day?

[slow hazel]

Spearhead are planning on NW last I heard

[storm basin]

Bc we don’t have 6/8 day weeks

[strange sigil]

Depending on how urgent the other stuff on elim coty map is we could leave it to the other armco battlegroups

[cunning aurora]

Oh I see what you mean

[lean berry]

Yep. Catcher healed Rhino 3FS --> 6FS

[upper depot]

Seems like healing happens before damage

[strange sigil]

When's enni getting healed by doc?

[cunning aurora]

soon
-# we hope

[upper depot]

We didn’t see catcher do a healing mid round, so maybe we haven’t seen the roll but it already happened?

[vast lodge]

Can we get given large supply as a battlegroup cause if so we could Sortie me and finley to go scout a different hex if that work but not sure since sortie say aerospace units?

[strange sigil]

Let's hope doc doesn't get forgotten again

[cunning aurora]

We can. But a Sortie only works for 1 round. So 1 LS for 2 units for 1 round is quite a steep price

I think we'll have to use you more conventionally: We set up on one side of a map and you can move ahead to scout

[little grail]

I am the first ever SF medic

So stealthy the GM doesn't know I'm there

[vast lodge]

I’m just wandering if it a option since it could be useful

[cunning aurora]

they keep forgetting you 😭

[cunning aurora]

Technically it's an option, but realistically it's not :/

[feral yoke]

maybe in a later campaign when we have more specop VTOLs and infantry to make it worth the supply

[rigid cape]

Probably because 2 medics are dropping on him.

He is probably waiting to do a roll with both medics and the bots firing to do a single mid round report.

[upper depot]

Makes sense

[hollow canopy]

I think I’ve become the focus on the North-West front, so… =v=“ Probably gonna figure out what happens there all at once.

[strange sigil]

RAHHH AA GUN FOR THE WINN

[lean berry]

Got a kill, @full lagoon !

Put it on the resumé

[exotic lion]

that fighter landed where i just ran past...

[vast lodge]

can planes stop crashing 2 feet from me

[hollow canopy]

Nu. Crashes HAT nearby.

[little grail]

@hollow canopy lives!

[hollow canopy]

:D Can I heal nao?

[little grail]

I sure hope so!

[dull marten]

so what is the gameplan for Tremor after this?

[chrome knoll]

#midround-events message
--RP POST--
Radio:
This is VTOL Si-Sok of Battlegroup Storm Blessed. Starport is friendly and mostly secure.

ARMCO has deployed Task Forces Atlas, Fluffle and Battlegroups: Storm Blessed, Redwall and Iron Hammer to Elim City to secure the city. Joint Battlegroups Dwarf Fortress and Phalanx are enroute. TF Fluffle will be leaving Elim Orbit shortly.

Beware, we have recieved intel of a squad of hostile armored infantry attacking civilians Northwest of your position inside a building. Also beware that we only have eyes on Elim Center.

Incoming Radio calls from other units on field will provide additional info. Si-Sok out.

[heady plaza]

Fluffle is leaving Elim.

Battle group phalanx enroute.

[little grail]

I'll wait till after midrounds are done to say a thing in general, but I fear I may have been left off again.

[hollow canopy]

D:

[narrow sand]

i think tremor should stay in the star port for a round to heal and help unpack

same for any damaged airships

[hollow canopy]

Ya, that’s what I’m thinking.

[vast lodge]

And the vtol horde can help other bg move units around if need in the mean time

[hollow canopy]

Storm should be set the turn after though (maybe 2, depending on healing rolls)

[upper depot]

Ya, I agree with this plan

[vast lodge]

Another idea is to stay here and act as a qrf since with the bots armour we lack the firepower to be able to do much by ourselves

[hollow canopy]

By the time we’re healthy and ready, someone’s gonna be in danger, I bet

[cunning aurora]

@little grail Double check for me, but I don't see you on the map right?

[hexed prawn]

Not again LOL

[little grail]

No, but the heal went off, and he said not everyone will show up

[hexed prawn]

This is reverse foxbat :P

[cunning aurora]

I don't think it did. The healing that Enni got was from DIce not you

[hollow canopy]

:o I had two medics

[cunning aurora]

yeah dude, you were at 1 fs

[little grail]

Being VTOL speed and being able to come in behind bots and hit wm where it hurts is going to be valuable down the stretch

[cunning aurora]

important to keep in mind yep

[little grail]

Do you think I got left off again?

[cunning aurora]

Yep

our phantom medic

[little grail]

https://tenor.com/view/doctor-who-dr-who-david-tennant-sad-emotional-gif-5325479

[cunning aurora]

I want to put up a poll before i get to bed, but I want to get any other options. I see 2 main options right now:
Leave ELIM ASAP go to some forward position (after healing/repairing everyone).
Focus on investigating/liberating ELIM. We use our speed to get to the farther corners of the city to make sure it's under friendly control.

Anyone have ideas beyond that?

[heady plaza]

Either way, our plan for this round should be R&R, first.

[vast lodge]

move on or lib/Qrf i think are our best choices

[upbeat lily]

the heal might not have gone through, or both medics were super unlucky with healing Enni

3/6 FS xD

[hollow canopy]

I think someone's gonna need a QRF by the time we're ready, so we just respond to that since we'll probably be full strength (As full as we can get anyway) by the time the call goes out.

[vast lodge]

but if anyone has anything they want to scout this turn let me know

[cunning aurora]

Well no one has requested QRF yet

[hollow canopy]

Someone, somewhere is gonna need a QRF as scouts move up and make contact, I'm sure

[little grail]

In my mind we consolidate and liberate. Let someone else more suited take the tip of the spear and we are best suited to be the hammer against their anvil

[hexed prawn]

Well, as a biased Rabbit member, we’re also a QRF, and we plan to hang out at crossroads until the airfield is secured/we’re needed

Come join us!

[upbeat lily]

Heal up and help clear the city or heal up and head into orbit and hang out till someone calls us?

[hexed prawn]

We would be a very powerful combined QRF considering

Your inf combined with our vehicles?

[cunning aurora]

Hang out at crossroads? That place is overrun

Shovels want to go there don't they? Or are they still doing sidequest stuff?

[hexed prawn]

Dang, must’ve missed that midround , might have to reconsider our plans

[hexed prawn]

They do

They asked Rabbit to scout it out first

[hollow canopy]

If the bots are building in an area, you know they're dug in there.

[rigid cape]

Rabbit, Spearhead and Shovels are all going that way and Venator was driving through on the way to the other city.

[heady plaza]

Yes, when it's clear because they have minimal combat capability.

[cunning aurora]

Does this mean that ELIM won't be a tac map next turn?

We could just stay, aid the locals, and prepare to QRF for people

[heady plaza]

It will be, hostile are still on map, and many unknowns.

[rigid cape]

Correct. Orders in the area for groups that remain should probably be stuff like repair/heal/how do we help locals.

Unless Storm is moving on without healing.

[hollow canopy]

Oh hell no, we're parking our asses for a minute, at least until I get my squad operational again. =v=

[heady plaza]

Proposal for JBG STORM:

This round (R5) - R&R, heal up units, repair VTOLs.

Next round (R6) - Load up, move to an objective as determined by a vote, or respond to QRF.

Basically, this turn for R&R, while we hammer out some plans for the following two turns.

[little grail]

Agreed. We have the VTOLs to facilitate the scouting, inf to dig, and SAR for civvies needing rescue

[cunning aurora]

We can also resupply off of the orbital. It's supplied.

[upbeat lily]

Do we want to help clear out the city or hang out in orbit till we are needed?

[hollow canopy]

We need to stay planetside to help with the city, I believe.

Whoever's healthy should go help that convoy, even if it's not a tactical map this turn cause there's hostiles right around their corner they're taking

[fiery summit]

i’m landed on the NW platform if a squad wants to quickly hop in

[cunning aurora]

So it sounds like pretty much everyone here is on board with staying in ELIM for this turn doing a combination of:
Healing/repairing damaged units
Resupplying
Helping Civilians

and then be loaded and airborn at the end of the turn so we're ready to react to any BG needing help

[vast lodge]

If no one has any plans for me I might go see if another bg needs some scouting done in the city well we wait if that works with the plan

[hollow canopy]

Sounds about right. I think we'll need to load up properly next turn and spend this turn doing all of that, since we'll be pretty split up for various reasons. (People are in buildings, still healing/repairing, helping, etc)

Sounds good to me. Sending our Special Forces first worked the first time, don't see why we should change it. =v=

[fiery summit]

looking more thoroughly if Spectre or Angel want to quickly move up we might be able to make it to that convoy. I’ve still got my smoke pods so anyone i drop will have +1 defense.

[chrome knoll]

aight, @storm basin plan: ima drop 2 supply on ya n do a supply run to Atlas, since ur likely gon use a 2nd supply to repair Pelican

[lean berry]

Yes

[dull marten]

Since I'm the one of the only units that is back to full strength, I think Ill check out those apt. buildings in grid 3117 and then next turn when we go somewhere I'll head back and reembark

or if we are leaving at the end of this turn I can just embark now back onto @rancid tundra

[heady plaza]

Would you mind if I had one of HAMMER do that instead?

Less risk for you, and that would free up a VTOL to help shuttle ATLAS Marines if needed.

[hexed prawn]

@hollow canopy good news

[hollow canopy]

:D

I will acknowledge that

[dull marten]

fine with me. I understand that we lost a good chunk of our inf. power so preserving what we have left makes sense

@heady plaza so I should just sit put or should I try and reembark PARROT?

-# also Im glad you are ok @hollow canopy

[hollow canopy]

I might just sit around and heal a bit more. Considering I lost 5 FS on landing, I'd prefer full strength if we're making anymore combat landings. =v

[hollow canopy]

I am too

[heady plaza]

Yeah, suggest you ask @little grail for heals.

[heady plaza]

Hm... I'm not sure, I'd have to check.

Will see if ATLAS puts in any logistics requests.

[frank ore]

While our injured and damaged units are restored maybe we should spend the next round checking those other contacts so we can lock down the whole strategic map

[hollow canopy]

I think that's what's getting organized

[heady plaza]

Yup, I'm going to put together a signup sheet for who is clearing what, and drop in in the coordinated AO sheet.

[hollow canopy]

I should look into that. :O

[heady plaza]

Standby, I'm still eating dinner.

[hollow canopy]

I was doing that too while midrounds were happening. =v=

I should make emote-sized images to use...

[little grail]

Enni is back up to 5 FS now, ballin!

[hollow canopy]

Yesh. :D

[little grail]

This is going to get real funny if I turn into a reverse Foxbat

[hollow canopy]

x3

[heady plaza]

STORM, for now, ignore the message about unknown contacts in ELIM AO.

I'd much rather you all R&R first.

[upbeat lily]

I was about to say, that giant ? In the North West is still there xD

[lean berry]

I mean, our resident stealth experts, @feral yoke and @vast lodge could check it out? Although it's a bit far for them to do get there this turn

We could also ask whoever LM Droes T1 is to check out the big "?" in the Northwest

[hushed trout]

Good worm Storm, it seems our blitz kept the pressure off the locals. BZ.

Do we have a concept of operations for what to do next?

[lean berry]

R&R while helping secure Elim City

[candid jasper]

Just glad it wasn't a repeat of last campaign

[lean berry]

Then see who needs QRF

If none, then Crossroads

[heady plaza]

VTOLs @odd fiber , @chrome knoll

Who wants to carry @hushed trout , and who wants to take point on the formation?

Currently, 2/4 leading VTOLs have died, and the other 2 damaged.

[hushed trout]

Are we going to aid the locals cornered by bots in 3520, or has another BG said they'll do that?

Given I have full strength, I volunteer to try and clear the bots

Just need a lift

[lean berry]

@heady plaza , you can check with Atlas, Redwall, and Iron Hammer?

[hushed trout]

Also, perhaps we can get another VTOL to casevac any wounded civies

[heady plaza]

Yup, I dropped a coordination sheet with all the BGs. ATLAS will be scanning, but is trying to recover their forces.

[vast lodge]

So from the new mid round are still using the map or no at this point

[lean berry]

Good to know.

[hollow canopy]

:O Sounds fine to me

[true crescent]

alright are we splitting into tremor and tempest now?

[hollow canopy]

Maybe. I think both groups needs healing/repairs though, so... Gotta stay together anyway for this turn. =v=

[rigid cape]

Hey I am just sitting on the hill in Elim City. I can pump 2 heals into VTOLs or other vehicles if you need them.

Just come to me for them.

[untold pine]

Hey, so what’s the plan?

[hollow canopy]

Heal, repair, rearm

[untold pine]

Nice, and for those of us who haven’t taken damage or anything

[rigid cape]

If you are at strength you can say you sweep nearby buildings.

We won't make or have a map but I think we still need to declare actions.

[untold pine]

I’m a VTOL

[upbeat lily]

could still move around and provide air cover or transportation for the locals

[real minnow]

How many wounded VTOLs you got?

[hollow canopy]

T13C is making a sheet to organize exploring unknown contacts, message them if you want to help with that.

[upbeat lily]

I think I'm the only wounded VTOL left

[hollow canopy]

Ya, I think we got everyone but one VTOL Repaired

[real minnow]

Incredible. Atlas may press ahead to keep Crossroads Secure rather than stay to help clear

There's at least one Iron Hammer engi at the paradrop hill offering repairs

[upbeat lily]

so I guess it will depend on if Shack will let us full heal without rolls or if we have to wait for RNG to fully heal our infantry

[slow hazel]

Are there any plans currently for healing VikingR or Hounds?

[real minnow]

Looks like "Stich" is nearby. A Redwaller I think

[slow hazel]

Alright I'll have to talk with them and see what their plans are

[hollow canopy]

T13C is the one organizing Storm's R&R right now, they would have the most up to date information if you're looking to help with recovery. :O

[upbeat lily]

did I see someone mention that we have should have people fly up to the orbital to resupply?

[slow hazel]

We have a couple medics who don't have a ton to do next turn because we will be landing and starved for movement. So if I can try to offer the ability to get some meaningful heals in with their actions I think that would be a nice option for them to have

[little grail]

Stitch is a Med Corps as well, i think with field hospital

[hollow canopy]

There's a few people that could still use healing, but I think the amount of medics we have on the ground already covers them all

[little grail]

Between a Field Hospital and the Hospital Ship, anyone that is just shy one FS should probably plan to hit those up, save the med supply for those needing more intensive care

[slow hazel]

Okay if they are planning to set up a field hospital that's a different story. Honestly I have been gone for the past few hours so I am trying to get my bearings again after these latest midrounds

[little grail]

Which... sounds backwards?

[untold pine]

Wait do people need supplies? My VTOL is full

[little grail]

Almost

[real minnow]

Our HAT Eureka is topped up with supply, and we plan to refill any/all Logi-trucks in the area before we head out, so maybe check with Redwall or Iron Hammer as well 🙂

[little grail]

If we resupply too soon we burn a supply for less than optimal. Let's get the medics to treat first and then go from there.

How are the engineers doing on supply?

[kind oyster]

I'll be moving Back into the Starport with civies, and probably getting patched up from friendlies from Phalanx by the end of it

[slow hazel]

Yeah the offer for heals still stands. I honestly don’t know the logistics of field hospitals and stuff like that super well so if that ends up being a better plan we can go with that. For now we will still plan on one of us getting you healed next turn

I’ll be in touch with you more over the next day or two as we finalize movements and plans and such

[untold pine]

I put out a message to Iron hammer and Redwall just to see what they might need and we can get a good head count

[hollow canopy]

I'd still like to get healed 1FS. =v=

[untold pine]

Poor Enni

You took the brunt of our push

[hollow canopy]

Correction: I took the brunt of the push and lived. We lost a whole squad of Infantry to my North, plus the other VTOLs and Infantry. =v="

[rancid oasis]

Holy shit our gamble paid off and we got the star port!!

[quartz bridge]

Ok, it looks likely that I'll help Prodigy deploy SE to protect those civvies and convoy.

[little grail]

My plan is to get you to a field hospital or hospital ship

[agile agate]

Hey I’m from Redwall anyone need some repairs?

[little grail]

Those heal one FS for free, IIRC

[hollow canopy]

:D Guide me and the Squaddies!

[slow hazel]

Please keep me updated on this. I haven’t gotten any response in Redwall about it yet and it’s pretty essential for us to be aware of that

[little grail]

Will do, let me liase with the others and get a medical plan of action.

Gimme 15 mins to settle some things IRL and I'll get started.

[slow hazel]

I really appreciate that. I’m trying to coordinate as much as I can right now along with some irl stuff also so I get it😆

[heady plaza]

Gimme like 30 mins, I'm still organizing-

[heady plaza]

Sure, I'll route wounded STORM INF to you. Thank you!

[slow hazel]

We will try and help as much as possible

[heady plaza]

I can help you with that, if you give me a bit of time to finish figuring out STORM stuff.

[heady plaza]

*if manned, yes.

[hollow canopy]

:O So how do I help with the Coordination sheet?

My position on the medical Dashboard is completely off. :o

Oh, my coordinates is mismatched with Hounds

[heady plaza]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TlipG7FZis_Y_igHiP6BRMkMDG7mIVoyPAWfzlBYvx8/edit?usp=sharing

[heady plaza]

Oops- fixed.

[hollow canopy]

:D

[quartz bridge]

Anyone else down to help me save these fellas?

[heady plaza]

No need, NORWIND from Iron Hammers is already on it.

[quartz bridge]

kk, I take it they've got a couple(+) dudes on it?

[rancid tundra]

Based on the way they are arranged, I wonder if the mystery contacts in 3018 are also civilians

they didn't move last turn, which seems odd if they are bots

[heady plaza]

NORWIND can deal with their own response, I believe it's an IFV + INF pair.

[hollow canopy]

Oh, it's multiple units. :D I was about to say, maybe send 2-3 units to confirm the kill.

Wait, I'm marked as Cat A (FS 1-2) on the Medical Dashboard, but I'm at 5FS nao. :o

[heady plaza]

VTOL @dire viper (SKDMRK), would you be willing to take INF @mellow scroll (STAINZ) up to the ATLAS Hospital Ship in order to be healed up? I believe you can Land where you are, have STAINZ Rush over, Take Off, Land on ATLAS, heal up, then Take Off again?

STAINZ, you will have to man the MEDBAY yourself as a Primary Action (0 Speed).

VTOL @trail spade (VTOLF), same request for you but take INF @hollow canopy with you instead.

[hollow canopy]

x3

[little grail]

How many FS Does Stainz have?

2?

[hollow canopy]

5 of 6

[heady plaza]

5 of 6. Better to use the Medbay +1FS to 2 units, more action economy.

[lean berry]

STAINZ has 5FS

[little grail]

Gotcha.

Here's what I'm thinking

We need the 1FS to go to either the field hospital or Hospital Ship.
If a unit is lacking 4-5 FS, they would benefit from being escorted by a medic to whichever of the 2 we don't use (Healing action prior to gettingim the bird, then get the rest from a hospital)
2-3 FS can reliably be healed by a Medic on one MS.

One of those VTOL's can resupply a MEDEVAC medic 2 times, so that's a total of 12 healing actions averaging on 3-4 returned each time, and then they get healed the rest by the hospital.

What do y'all think?

[heady plaza]

I'd still suggest the 5FS units be medevacced, since both can be helaed for 1FS at the same time - keep it simple.

Angel at 3FS and HOUNDS at 2FS...

I've asked MARTINI to heal Angel again.
HOUNDS... Currently waiting to see if the medcorp will setup a field hospital.

[hollow canopy]

Is Angel 3? I couldn't even tell with how many units there were

[heady plaza]

Angel is 3FS from what I can tell-

[little grail]

Right right, so if we want the 1FS to go to the Hospital ship, then we should either A) start coordinating rides, or B) have them meet at the starport for air ambulances to do their job. Critically injured personnel should meet at the field hospital for care by a medic then the hospital.

[heady plaza]

Already pinged their rides above.

#1382040199797801031 message
#1382040199797801031 message

[lean berry]

Yep, Angel FS 2 --> 3. (Rolled a 1 from Martini. Rough)

[heady plaza]

INF "HOUNDS" @kind oyster , if you could step outside of the building towards the SW corner of 3417, I have PHALANX Medics willing to heal you.

See their plan here: #1382148654596489388 message

[little grail]

If our field hospital is wanting to save their, well, hospital, then we need to set up critical care evacs as mentioned above.

[heady plaza]

No word from the MEDCORP, unfortunately, I've pinged them, though.

[lean berry]

We have almost 48 hours till orders are due. We have time.

[slow hazel]

Noooooooooooo we have to panic and stay up all night to plan everything now 🤣

[lapis forge]

^

[hollow canopy]

x3

[little grail]

Im just hyped

[lean berry]

You're not even Storm! Go on, git! /s

[heady plaza]

bad

Mistakes are more common.

[lean berry]

@odd fiber @hushed trout confirming you two now being a VTOL / INF formation flight pair

[hollow canopy]

x3

[fiery summit]

I’m open to any transport needs given i’m pretty close to the center

[lean berry]

Unless @chrome knoll wants to be Apiary's wings and RAPID can be our new formation front

[chrome knoll]

am willing, o nvm am too late

[lean berry]

C hasn't claimed anything yet

Hence my pinging for a confirmation

[chrome knoll]

just woke up from nap

[chrome knoll]

just a heads up abt this tho, am thinking abt doing a supply run this turn

anyhow, ye am willing to carry Apiary

[heady plaza]

If you are running back up to ATLAS, I'll ask if anyone there needs a ride.

[lean berry]

Alright, it's late. I'm heading to bed. Anyone need anything, ping me.

[chrome knoll]

aight, it'll be tricky for me to move much from curr pos before i go up to orbit tho
0.5 Embark(?)
0.5 Takeoff
2.5 Orbit
0.5 Land
0.5 Disembark

[hollow canopy]

Bai bai fren

So bit of a dumb question, but why am I going to Atlas for healing? :O

[heady plaza]

More efficient, of you or STAINZ, one of you can heal yourselves, freeing up people to do other things in the Ground AO.

[hollow canopy]

Does Atlas like, have medics up there? :O

[heady plaza]

Huh... Well, we'll wait and see what requests come in, first.

[heady plaza]

I just got clarification, they don't need it. Everyone is within RUSH range, apparently.

[chrome knoll]

aight, confirm no one needs a ride n i can focus on resupply?

[heady plaza]

Yup. I will add your resupply request to the coordination page.

(Just to make sure ATLAS keeps an open bay).

[chrome knoll]

also, how does unloading supply to a unit work? does the unit am resupplying need to take the supply via action? or do i have to use 0.5 speed to unload one SS? or either works (e.g. Zenok spends 0.5 speed unloading one SS, i spend 0.5 speed unloading another SS to Zenok so he gets 2 SS from me this turn)?

[little grail]

Also, we need to collect our dead to prevent the bots from taking them should a counterattack come.

[hollow canopy]

I think the medics healing is like, part of that.

[little grail]

The ones that are dead dead though

it'd be an RP thing, but still

[rigid cape]

Hey I need someone to ping me if you need me to do repair work.

[heady plaza]

Don't have any right now, we only have 1 damaged VTOL that can be repaired in-house.

[chrome knoll]

just a heads up abt that, SkiSalv squad lead is critically wounded RP-wise. I'd do an RP post abt that (calling it out on radio/doing a medivac to Atlas hospital ship - purely RP so no action use) but VTOLs can't spot ground... maybe i can do the latter...

[rigid cape]

Alright I may be building artillery dugouts then.

[heady plaza]

JBG STORM

Please review the current round 5 intentions as compiled.

Discuss. Feel free to ping me!
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eZkZ6RMCbi97g9mk4H2sczWiPbWdDJ_fVm35iPV1PSU/edit?usp=sharing

[granite bear]

Yes, we have two medics and a medical bay

[heady plaza]

Yes. 2 Medbays means you two can man it personally, though.

[rigid cape]

Do you guys have any assets that can push SE fast to secure that civvie convoy? It is about to drive straight by enemies on the way to the spaceport. Would be a shame to lose them now.

Or should I talk to Redwall?

[hollow canopy]

:o What's a Medbay do?

[granite bear]

Heals one FS when used. a unit can use it max 3 times. a quick way to top off without using the medic's supplies

[slow hazel]

Phalanx is making the green elevated area to the SE a priority target. Not exactly covering them but something to keep in mind. We could send our mech lance down there to the convoy if Redwall doesn’t have any available assets

[hollow canopy]

:D That's neat

[heady plaza]

please, read the coordination sheet first-

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TlipG7FZis_Y_igHiP6BRMkMDG7mIVoyPAWfzlBYvx8/edit?usp=sharing

[granite bear]

Okay, so confirming, two of Storm's infantry are coming aboard the Sentinel for medical treatment, one infantry being tended to by Atlas Medic Martini. No VTOL repairs requested. Storm engineers are resupplying with us in Atlas. Anything else I missed?

[heady plaza]

Sentinel has 2 Medbays, right? We can have both (of STORM) INF man one each.
Martini tending to Angel on the ground before they leave.
VTOLs/Engies will be resupplying, yes.

VTOL repair will be handled in-house.

[little grail]

Does the 3 FS refresh on use of another large supply? Or can they only restore 3 FS for the entirety of the campaign?

[heady plaza]

? 3FS for?-

[granite bear]

Yes, Sentinel has 2 Medbays, room for both.

[little grail]

Medbay

[heady plaza]

As long as the TF is in supply, the medbay can be used.

[little grail]

Can only 3 Recovered FS total. Casulties must be taken to the medical bay using an action

Is that just 3 people at a time?

[heady plaza]

... I'll assume that's per round, and leave it at that.

I'll still note it down for Shack.

[granite bear]

That's something I've been meaning to ask so the reminder is good.

[little grail]

I gotta admit, I feel like the application of healing is backwards a bit. I feel like I should be doing the lower amount of healing outside of the field hospital and Medbay. I guess the benefit that you pay for is that it works even when unsupplied.

[chrome knoll]

hm... @little grail @warm lichen (sry for ping) linked RP posts idea:
(RP only, shouldn't affect actions n movements nor occupy medbay)

• PEDRO61 discovers SkiSalv squad lead in crit condition n bring her(?) to VTOL
• after unloading supplies to Zenok, Si-Sok does an emergency medivac + resupply flight to Atlas hospital ship

what do y'all think? this can be included in our RP post sections in #1327290771048628278 this turn (btw, dead units can still do rp posts there, see T13C's post for example)

[little grail]

Lemme see how my movement works this turn. I'd be down if it takes me by them!

[granite bear]

I've thought similar or at least allow more units to be affected by the +1 FS of the Medbay so it's more the focused treatment of a medic vs the mass treatment of a medbay.

[little grail]

We'll have to brainstorm and come up with something after the campaign.

[hollow canopy]

Isn't Doc tending to my squad though?

Oh wait, that was this turn. =v=

[little grail]

Yup! you got 2 FS from me.

[warm lichen]

Yep Sofia is her, that works for me. I have been busy hanging out with family and working on getting all my lore typed out. I am currently working on another rp post though.

[chrome knoll]

aight, do @ me abt that, n do note that u start in the same hex n r pretty close to where SkiSalv was, so i'd reckon u can prob RP discovering them w/o using any movement action-wise

[little grail]

We'll work it out

[granite bear]

Yeah, you're slotted to go to the hospital ship Rapid Sentinel to top off

[hollow canopy]

Who was picking me up again? Vtolf?

[granite bear]

Not sure

[hollow canopy]

Okie. :D I'll probably setup Orders for that tomorrow. =v=

[warm lichen]

--RP Post--
Company Commander Johann Wraski's Personal Log: "We have lost contact with SKISALV, I repeat lost contact with SKISALV." These words have been haunting me. I pray that all of them survived, but I know how unlikely it is that even one survived. I told my people to help with the cleanup in the hope that someone can be saved, whether they are part of my company or another. Once the fighting near the starport is over we will help search for survivors and any usable salvage, of course returning any that is from one of the friendly companies to that company.

[upbeat lily]

unless if it was for something else, Vtolf is your dance partner for this operation

[storm basin]

Just saying Pelican I am fine repairing you this turn
But I’ll wait before posting my order incase others want to be repaired

Or whatever we do

[upbeat lily]

I'm probably just going to hold position till I get repaired, then I'm assuming I'll be picking up Catcher before heading to orbit or a variation for Wednesday's round of orders

[storm basin]

Until I get word we ain’t leaving this turn I won’t finalise any orders

[chrome knoll]

btw, u alr w/ this if we aren't leaving Elim this turn, Zenok?

also, according to prev msgs #1382040199797801031 message, apparently unloading sups doesn't take up movement

[storm basin]

Yeah I’m fine with it

The supplies would actually bring me back to max

-# 3 supplies go down to 2 with repairing Pelican, then I gain 2 from you should give me 4/4 again

[kind oyster]

Securing Civies

watch your fire

[trail spade]

@hollow canopy I am off at country with my mobile tull tomorrow so might miss some info. I resume our plan is to pick you up (from which hex?) and fly to hospital at one of orbitals?

[edgy ember]

Seems like the idea I had is being used before I posted anything

But for clarity: I think holding here for a turn or two so we can reinforce units, resupply, and then we can go QRF and support in another sector once we know who needs help. If no specific site is needed, moving to the crossroads so we can go in almost any direction instantly is probably the best spot to loiter.

My intention is to set up cover for the star port. I spent 1 supply last turn, though somebody said they dropped a supply to refill my stores. If there are any units needing repairs, ping me and we can plan for fixes instead of me digging in.

[storm basin]

Unless if I am missing something only Pelican should be damaged

[chrome knoll]

I think this poll best summarizes our options, lmk if i need to add anything.

note: this poll is for overall BG stance, not individual Order Type.

[kind oyster]

Hold we have too many wounded to just Start Moving, plus the area isn't clear just Yet, we could help clearing the north western area

[edgy ember]

We were formed to be a mobile support unit anyway. While that makes us quick, we don't need to lead the charge from here, but instead we join whichever spot needs support

[full lagoon]

I take it then if the plan is hold yall wish mento keep overwatch?

[real crest]

Same question here for you boys !

[chrome knoll]

this is regarding STORM btw

[storm basin]

We kinda…. need a new formation

Only as we lost 2 inf and 2 VTOLs so now we have gaps (including 1 at the front)

[trail spade]

If we had gunship vtol would be usefull for such role. Eg uparmored HVTOL that lose carring capability but gain some armor.

[upbeat lily]

I think we already had a discussion about one VTOL adopting an infantry unit and the other becoming the front line

[untold pine]

Ok, so this turn is kinda just hold ground, repair/heal, then next turn advance to the crossroads?

[chrome knoll]

maybe, we'll see where we'll be needed most next turn, will prob hold a poll abt it.

we're originally a QRF force after all, I dont think we're intended to be a spearhead/breakthrough force (early deployment to Elim notwithstanding as we're the BG that could've gotten there quickest, and now we have other forces deployed). - if am wrong, do correct me here
We'll see what everyone wants to do next turn

[rigid cape]

Alright looks like IH is moving out. Our poll has half the group saying go to Crossroads by road.

[chrome knoll]

Note: msg below is regarding what we might wanna do next turn, not this turn.
btw, if we're going the QRF route starting next turn, i have a few ideas/options in mind:

• Backline(Elim) Logistics/Defensive Deploy - Elim City: Remain in the backlines awaiting QRF reqs from the front
  Pros: Safest, allows us to help secure starport area
  Cons: will be further from frontlines when other BGs push eastwards, delaying QRF response times, Worst combat up-time aka we shoot the least comparing the three deployment cases

• Midline QRF/Reinforcement Deploy - Hill Mines, C-Z, Crossroads: Move up to the midlines and prepare for QRFing from there (Midlines can range from a hex inbetween Elim n front e.g. L-H if frontline is Crossroads, to being on frontline hex right behind other BGs unit deployment-wise)
  Pros: More Flexibility: forces not completely busy in combat -> allows for quicker QRF response while still being able to support the frontlines via CAS and midline infantry depending on how we deploy when not QRFing
  Cons: Less combat up-time then frontline deploy -> staying behind other BGs might mean some units can't deal damage to enemies

• Frontline Assault/Proactive Deploy - Nerys Village: Move up to the frontlines and create a new frontline utilizing our mobility to assault otherwise inaccessible areas.
  Pros: Highest combat up-time -> our units will be fighting even when QRF is unneccessary
  Cons: Less flexibile then Midline deploy -> units may be too busy fighting or bogged down to redeploy when/if QRF is needed elsewhere, Most risky -> if we are deployment unsupported, there is quite a chance that we suffer heavy casualities. again.

Note: this msg/post is for discussion abt what we want to do next turn, after this turn's 3R (Rest, Repair, Resupply)

[untold pine]

Guys, please remind me each order type. I would quickly work but I only got a few min rn to type my order

[chrome knoll]

Advance - u are moving
Hold - u are not moving
thats the two main ones
Rush - u are moving extra-fast, to the detriment of ur defence

let me check ruleset for the others
anything am missing?

[lean berry]

Yeah, @ Tigrium Charon dropped off a Small Supply for you last turn

[lean berry]

Yep. Keep Holding AA cover. Practically there's no chance of stray Harasser (bot-fighter) strafing, but it doesn't hurt. I'll be hanging out near you ready for when we extract for QRF or in case Atlas/Iron Hammer/Redwall/Phalanx need vehicles moved.

[lean berry]

Yep. Si-Sok / Apiary paired with RAPID as the new point VTOL with PU

[lean berry]

This is correct

[storm basin]

Evasive and ponderous
However, these are unimportant for us as none of our units have evasive and ponderous is for orbitals

[lean berry]

Note that ponderous isn't an order type but rather a tag.

[vast lodge]

Melee and stealth are the two others order types

[storm basin]

Oh

Didn’t realise bout that one honid

[chrome knoll]

how much speed to resupply VTOL once am in vtol bay

[lean berry]

It's a primary

No Speed cost

[chrome knoll]

can I unload small supp -> Fly up to vtol bay -> resupply in one turn?

[lean berry]

Yep

Just note that you can't land and takeoff from a VTOL Bay in the same turn. A limitation of VTOL Bays.

[chrome knoll]

aight, Si-Sok is intending to resupply at one of the vtol bays of Atlas, likely Rapid Sentinel's. Since they have a med-bay, i can prob also carry someone up there to get healed

[hushed trout]

@chrome knoll I hear you're my new ride, yeah?

[untold pine]

@lean berry, I just had a though. Should we fly over the big question mark while in this formation? Just to see what it is?

[chrome knoll]

Yep

[storm basin]

Being real, unless ya plan to spend 1 entire movement on landing/taking off I dunno if you can take anyone up

[chrome knoll]

some units can potentially [RUSH] to my vtol i think

[storm basin]

Only angel could

Others would have to take time ascending the staircase

[hushed trout]

Let me know what you end up doing tgis turn. You can lift someone else if necessary for this turn since I think I will collect the dead this turn

[chrome knoll]

yeah makes sense, tho how much movement/speed is needed to ascend staircase?

[cunning aurora]

,5

anything takes .5 movement

[storm basin]

They might be able to on a rush but it’s unlikely

[chrome knoll]

hmm, looking at the map i think a few units might be able to [rush] to my vtol

[storm basin]

I ain’t a genius, but remember it also takes 0.5 to embark

Actually… they can’t even enter if they rush I’m using old knowledge

If they want to ascend the staircase it takes 0.5 of their base movement

Not their speed

Right?

And then they need a 0.5 movement to embark into your vehicle if I am correct

[chrome knoll]

o yea there's that

[storm basin]

So anyone who takes the stairs can’t move if they want to embark

[lean berry]

Oh yeah! We could totally do that, so long as none of us four need to resupply.
@rancid oasis @ashen crypt just checking that neither of you two are in need of resupplying this turn and can fly in formation with Talon 1 and me to air scout the giant "?" in the Northwest

[storm basin]

And the starport is a dome…

Angel may be able to reach you by rushing, but anyone else can’t

That’s unless I am mistaken with rulings

[ashen crypt]

I’m down to recon

[untold pine]

Wait why would a VTOL need a resupply sorry I truly have no idea how the VTOL stuff works

[storm basin]

I think Honid means repairs

[untold pine]

Ah

[storm basin]

You can also resupply by going to orbit and maxing out your 2/2 supply

[untold pine]

I don’t think any of us took damage

[storm basin]

Well only Pelican took damage

[lean berry]

VTOLs (not HVTOL or SVTOLs) can carry 2 Small Supply

[untold pine]

Oh

[storm basin]

I don’t think anyone really donated small supply

Only 1 person did, and I don’t recall who

[cunning aurora]

I gave a SS

[lean berry]

I know Charon did

[chrome knoll]

am unloading 2x SS to u this turn also

[storm basin]

Ah it was you

Yeah thanks for that Si-Sok

[chrome knoll]

aight since i prob cant carry any of the wounded units, am gon resupply from ships w/o medbays

[storm basin]

Talon 1, this is why I ain’t providing you repairs

[untold pine]

lol, what?

[storm basin]

Your RP

It defines the entire reason why I can’t repair you

[untold pine]

lol, it adds character

Might be a hazard to everyone around me, but hey, live alittle

[storm basin]

I literally produce fresh parts on the job

You are flying salvage practically

[untold pine]

Yep, can’t wait to find that downed VTOL from earlier and salvage some components

Maybe add some bots into the computer system, possibly take an arm and replace the controls with the limbs of bots

[storm basin]

If you don’t die and your ship stays the same in the next campaign we meet I am definitely not even trusting your vehicle

[untold pine]

lol, I will put in a request to carry you into battle

[storm basin]

https://tenor.com/view/monte-python-run-away-get-out-of-here-escape-running-gif-4399862

[untold pine]

lol

😂😂😂

[neat olive]

Hello! Logi truck from Phalanx here were dropping this turn in elm city so just seeing if anyone need supply
I'm carrying 10 small supply if anyone needs a resupply

[heady plaza]

The benefit of field hospital and medbay is that they are (relatively) passive. So you don't need the medic unit to be constantly stationed there, freeing up their actions to help in the field.

[heady plaza]

See the ping above, I'm arranging for you to get heals on the Rapid Sentinel (Hosputal Ship).

[heady plaza]

Clarify, we were also the only battle group that could also independently land - if we failed, would've been bad.

[storm basin]

Tbh I want to go to a mine

But I feel like we need to go to that village

[heady plaza]

VTOLs can't scout ground targets moment.

@untold pine @rancid oasis

You can coordinate to bring units up there, though.

[heady plaza]

Believe Picket Line is open, I'll check when I'm done breakfast.

[untold pine]

Oh shoot, true, so we need atleast one or two troops with us

[lean berry]

We can scout a large structure, though

[chrome knoll]

#1382037040438181950 message can confirm Picket Line vtol bay is open, will be resupplying there.

[lean berry]

Just to see what it is

[heady plaza]

... T13C is literally right next door.

Internal components are fine - leave the frame, that's being salvaged to put T13C back into service.

[upbeat lily]

The village might have those factories that produce more robots

[heady plaza]

Is it a structure, though?

Would still bring ground troops, probably from REDWALL.

[lean berry]

It's a big unknown contact. I doubt it's a massive unit

[heady plaza]

I'm currently coordinating supply and medical requests, so far looks like we will just have our VTOLs jump into ATLAS bays in order to resupply.

[neat olive]

alright

[storm basin]

Hold up EC

can’t air units scout if they land?

Or is it in general they can’t see anything

[untold pine]

We can land, and take off, plus still make it there right? Or would that be to much?

[lean berry]

We could. It would eat into our 5 Speed.

We'd probably then just get to the southern edge of the unknown contact

[heady plaza]

Implied can't in general.

You could dismount your 3FS unarmed crew, but...

[heady plaza]

It's the INF's problem then!

Those involved, feel free to recruit ground units from REDWALL or PHALANX.
(HAMMER is in the SW/SE, probably too far to pick up).

[trail spade]

Hill Mine map showed up

[trail spade]

Should I pick Enni inf and fly to Atlas meds with them?

[heady plaza]

If I pinged you about it, that is my suggestion.

[trail spade]

Roger. Waiting for confirmation from Enni and will do.

[rancid oasis]

Who should I be picking up?

[heady plaza]

Did I ping you above?

[rancid oasis]

Yes

[heady plaza]

Uh... what did I ping you for-

frantically backsearching

(Too many people-)

[heady plaza]

Ah, found it.

You are untasked at the moment, feel free to offer transportation capabilities to others that need it.

[rancid oasis]

Ok, if anyone needs a lift. Let me know. Otherwise I’ll probably put it orders to assist civilian evacuation or SAR

[hollow canopy]

:D Frens

[lean berry]

I was pinging you since you're currently in formation with me. We're planning on doing some air scouting of the huge "?" in the northwest. If we can get some ground units we can do better at scouting

[true crescent]

Anyone need repairs currently seeing as I can do much else rn

otherwise I'll just sit tight this turn

[rancid oasis]

Do we have anyone to bring with us? Sounds like scouting by ourselves would not be that useful

[lean berry]

We can at least conclude if it's a giant structure or not

We're not useless

Just can't scout units

Remeber that the Spec Ops VTOL was able to see the Starport before it landed

[untold pine]

It would be smart to grab atleast one ground unit to help the scouting

[lean berry]

Zenok is repairing Pelican. Otherwise building up some defenses wouldn't hurt so long as you plan on getting resupplied this turn.

[ashen crypt]

I’m all caught up on the campaign briefing and yay we did it! Elim starport is ours.

[hollow canopy]

Yesh. :D

[ashen crypt]

After scouting the city, are we still going to push ahead to Crossroads? Our VTOLs could be useful for civilian search and rescue in Elim.

[storm basin]

I thought maybe Nervy Village would be a better idea if we’re going on the offensive

Since it’s isolated and to the side of Crossroads

-# To get there you’d have to go through Crossroads or have aerospace/orbitals

[real minnow]

FYI: @upper depot Angel,
Atlas Medic "Martini" will be healing you once more this turn.

[upper depot]

Oh hell ya, Martinis

[upbeat lily]

So for day 5 we are pretty much just doing R&R for repairs/heals and resupply. For day 6 are we forming up for standby or are we heading to whichever location needs us?

[vast lodge]

Round 6 is unknown we see what it looks like at the end of this turn

[little grail]

Hey Storm. How are we looking?

[hollow canopy]

:O Healthier. :D

[upbeat lily]

I’m asking mainly because we should probably have the VTOLs move towards and maybe land near their infantry counter parts for easy loading and taking off if we need to jump to another map

To preserve speed/movement

[vast lodge]

I believe shack said at this point we can just leave since where not really using the tac map anymore

[trail spade]

Maybe @lost hare? He want to go west to scout all ?? there.

[lost hare]

I do.

I'm already planning that move.

[feral yoke]

So what is the plan this round then?

[storm basin]

Mostly recover I think

[feral yoke]

Right, well I guess nothing really for me to do then

[lean berry]

Feel free to pick up Aurora and do some light scouting of the "?"s in Elim

[fiery summit]

I’m open to picking anyone up for a ride or join up in scouting the NW

[narrow sand]

so storm just chills?

i guess i dont need to even submit an order then

[strange sigil]

@little grail what's your plan for the next turn?

[little grail]

Trying to catch up on the medical plan

[lean berry]

By the way, I assume you meant for the starting and ending coordinates in your orders to both be the same 3217

[narrow sand]

correct

[little grail]

So Enni and Stainz has a ride up to Rapid Sentinel. Hounds needs the more advanced care, should I try to get to them?

[heady plaza]

You do need to just say you are on Elim at the very least.

[heady plaza]

Hounds... Phalanx hasn't gotten back to me yet.

[little grail]

gotcha. I'll catch a ride with @strange sigil to hounds and provide aid.

[heady plaza]

Correction:
dylanstemporary and mellow94 are healing them.

[little grail]

Ope, never mind

[heady plaza]

Do some RP assistance of the locals, I guess?

[little grail]

Can Beans and I link up to go on SAR monitoring for civvie evac?

Hells yeah!

[heady plaza]

Of course!

[little grail]

https://tenor.com/view/phineas-and-ferb-i-know-what-were-gonna-do-today-i-know-what-were-going-to-do-today-gif-27359053

[little grail]

Do you want to pick me up at 3316? We'll declare ourselves on Search and Rescue for Civilians, starting in the North West

[trail spade]

@hollow canopy
Are you ok with such?

Callsign: Vtolf
Unit Type: VTOL
Unit Group: Tempest
Carrying: 2/2 Small Supplies + after getting on board Enni (inf)
Equipment: none
Order Type: Advance
Movement/Action Tracker: fly from 3216 to 3316 (1 speed) landing (0,5 speed), loading Enni Infantry (0,5 speed), lift of (0,5 speed), fly to orbital Rapid Sentinel so Enni get full healing (2,5 speed)
Starting Coords: 3216
Ending Coords: at Rapid Sentinel's VTOL BAY

RP:

Crew1: I got one!
Crew2: Good shooting! We got other VTOL shooting as well! All bots down! C2 to Pilot looks clear. All enies down.
Pilot: Vtolf to Enni -hold there a bit longer you got green light at medbay at orbital. We are going for you to pick ya there!
Pilot to crew -get Vtolf ready for our ladies. Open doors and help them get on moment we touch ground.

[hollow canopy]

:O

You put "enies" instead of "enemies"

[raven epoch]

Hello Storm! Would any of you be interested in one or two small supply? We’re looking to off load two max to free up space in our logi truck!

[strange sigil]

Yeah sure. Don't know how we can spot any if im in the air but it should be alr as long as it's clear of bots

[upbeat lily]

@cunning aurora or @edgy ember might be able to take one off your hands

otherwise @chrome knoll is heading to Picket Line Orbital to obtain 2x small supply

[chrome knoll]

o/, literally just woke up 5 seconds ago, coincidence?

[cunning aurora]

We can just get all the SS we need from Picket Line

[hollow canopy]

:D Frens

@trail spade Your order works, by the way. :O Although I only really look at the RP section. =v=

I should get my order set out too...

[strange sigil]

@little grail what coordinates do you want to head to?

Keep in mind I have to spend a bit of movement to get to you, land and take off

So probably can't be too far from your position

[little grail]

I'm thinking as long as we can get airborne we can do mostly what we want, since it's just RP Stuff going on in Elim right now

[strange sigil]

Alr, so im thinking heading to 3315?

Lots of buildings there

Should have enough Movement to land too if you want

[strange sigil]

Down to you though

[rancid tundra]

do we have someone checking out those contacts in 3018 yet?

[real minnow]

Since you can't launch and dock at an Orbital in the same turn, any VTOL wanting fresh supply should get it from a Logi-Truck, or reserve a VTOL bay slot.

Atlas has 3 reserved for you already, and 2 unreserved left.

We're already planning to airdrop supply to all Logi-Trucks in the area, so don't worry about that.

[hollow canopy]

@little grail For RP reasons, would you accept rations and do you have a leader/character that I should name drop and give lines? :o

@real crest Whenever you awaken in french, what was the first thing your unit did when landing and do you have a character I should name-drop and give lines as well? :O

[little grail]

I got 2!

Capt. Kelley Carson is the leader, think a stereotypical west Texas sheriff's deputy, but instead was a former special operations orbital drop rescue medic.

Lt. Alvin McCain is his sidekick, and is an exceptionally clumsy Jersey kind of fellow that just happens to also be one of the best medics Carson ever worked with.

@heady plaza hey boss man, since we are just in RP season, if TAXI and I get airborne are we allowed to look for people? Or are we going to be hamstrung because VTOL's cant spot the ground?

[hollow canopy]

x3 Alright.

Is Third Aid a thing? I remember it being mentioned as like, hospital aid, right? Or is that just, like, non-sense?

[civic gazelle]

Redwall's triple-A tank supported by an ODT team on high ground, but they (ODTs) won't have clear LoS this turn

[heady plaza]

RP for that is fine.

[hollow canopy]

Also, how did some people extend their RP section since there's a character limit for Discord? :o

[fiery summit]

some use a second message, both for extended RP and so they can edit their RP without editing their actual order

also is anyone heading to do scouting up in the NW? i’m more than happy to give some rides or join up in a formation

[hollow canopy]

:D Interesting, Okie

[lost hare]

Anyone here free for an interview with Diana Keys?

I'm a war journalist.

[heady plaza]

I was about to say yes, then remembered that T13C is a smoking wreck.

[little grail]

Sure! I'd be down

[frank ore]

@gleaming palm if you want a lift somewhere let me know otherwise ill probably be floating around acting as light CAS

[chrome knoll]

[RP Post] (Note: Semi-Meta)
Hearing the interview request being mentioned in STORM radio comms, Pilot Therali checks his watch for the time. "Hmm... 喂, Pearson, 我哋仲有冇時間去做個 interview? [Hey, Pearson, do we still have time for an interview?]" He turned around to ask.

Engineer Pearson, currently unloading supplies from the VTOL to Zenok, looks up from the cargo he's carrying. "俾我 check 一 check... ok, 如果我哋繼續咁樣落貨, 要飛之前應該有啲時間. [Let me check... ok, if we continue to unload at this pace, we should have enough time before we have to take off.]"

"如果聽日先 interview 呢? [What if the interview is tomorrow?]"

"我哋聽日仲會落嚟接 Apiary, 所以我哋應該都得. [We are going to come back down for Apiary tomorrow, so we should also be good for that.]"

"OK, 我就去應啦. [Ok, I'll go respond then.]" Therali replied, before taking out his radio to respond to the request.

BG3 Radio: "-This is Pilot Therali of VTOL Si-Sok, we should have some time so we'd be down for an interview today or tomorrow, over.-"

(headcanon: everything in this chat is the comms log of STORM Radio Comms and/or hybrid radio and digitial comms channel, aka this chat = STORM Comms in-universe)

[frank ore]

[RP Post]
give the journalist my compliments, i don't know how but they know how to source coffee better than anyone i know

[chrome knoll]

"-Will do. We'd also like to try that coffee out, over.-"

[hollow canopy]

Do we have to label the posts as RP? :o

[chrome knoll]

prob nop other then in #1327290771048628278 , but I personally prefer to label my RP posts for organization ig

[hollow canopy]

Oh, okie. =v=

[heady plaza]

What am I, the voice on the radio that makes everyone think someone survived the crash, but later is discovered everyone died on scene rapidly?

[frank ore]

the area was secured somewhat fast so you could get away saying the crew survived in RP, of course this dosent matter in gamebut thats the point of flavor

[chrome knoll]

my headcanon is that ur coordinating from headquarters of ur company using FTL comms, being reliant on intel from deployed units

[chrome knoll]

this works as well, it could be that ur(T13C)'s crew isn't in any condition to do combat ops but can still do coordination well from the backlines
tho my headcanon is mainly working off existing RP from u(Adj) which indicates T13C's crew is KIA instead of not being in combat condition. RP can be modified and/or retconned tho

[heady plaza]

Oh, no, I am having my crew die. Only the VTOL T13C will be recovered, and will be put back into service.

[frank ore]

RIP

[heady plaza]

Works!

Or TF Omega-Zulu is operating from a secure location.

[chrome knoll]

As for me, my VTOL's cockpit is also an escape pod RP-wise

[gleaming palm]

i will hold this round and wait

[lost hare]

"- Copy that, will make sure to bring some beverages over from [Picket Line] by tomorrow, over.-"

[real crest]

So, 3 characters.

Mathieu, the main character, a Lieutenant, the commander of the tank, he's the perspective I'm writing.
Jean, the gunner, best friend of Mathieu
Philippe, the driver, seemingly pretty old but still a good pal. He cannot speak english very well and has a THICC french accent compared to the others.

As for what's the first thing my unit did...
Mathieu probably said something to @distant flint (the HVTOL transporting me) like:
"Huh, I could swear I saw the same guys transporting me on Titan. Good to see you again Air Hunter."

We would have done more roleplay between me and Hunter but, we were strapped for time.
Also, "Air Hunter" is probably the wrong old callsign, but that works :P

Need anything else ? :D

[distant flint]

Air Dragoon :P

[real crest]

SEE, SEE, I GOT IT WRONG AGAIN !!! 🤣

[edgy ember]

If I want to investigate the bots remains, what order type do I put down?

[distant flint]

To be fair my nickname now is the company my HVTOL is associated with rather than their callsign :P

[real crest]

@hollow canopy Include air dragoon yelling about Mathieu saying the wrong callsign AGAIN for the 2nd time and I think you got yourself a good idea of what happend when we landed 🤣

If you want a radio comm between me & your character when we've arrived, we can work that out too :P

[lean berry]

@heady plaza was the hope that @dire viper SKDMRK would take @mellow scroll STAINZ to Atlas' medic corvette Rapid Sentinel

[weary apex]

Sorry, I was a bit absent, what are we going to do?

[storm basin]

Stay here and lick our wounds

[lean berry]

3317 East corner

[untold pine]

Did we ever decide if we are picking up a unit?

[strange moon]

How are you guys doing?

You're all still in Elim city right?

[storm basin]

Yes

[strange moon]

How many losses have you had?

[storm basin]

no more than the first 4

[strange moon]

What are the plans for next turn?

[storm basin]

Basically that

Some of us are doing minor scouting (or trying to) of the unknowns in the region, others are just recovering

[strange moon]

Understood, good luck

[weary apex]

Thy

[real minnow]

We don't have any, but Redwall and Iron Hammer have some. You'd have to ask them to link up.

[real minnow]

Last I heard, yes. We have a Med Bay and a Medic on standby, as well as a total of 3 VTOL bays reserved as of last count. If that changes, please let me know!

[heady plaza]

Yes.

[real minnow]

who was the other unit needing medical on the corvette?

One unit needin 5>6, and one needing a heal in earnest?

[heady plaza]

Nope, both are 5FS, they can both self-heal. Your Medics can do something else.

[real minnow]

Only one unit can use the med bay at once

just like all ship equipment

-# it's hilariously under powered

[real minnow]

Did I get all y'all's names right?

[storm basin]

Well Stainz has a different order

Or are they in a VTOL
-# Still?

[real minnow]

I'm responding to this comment:
#1382040199797801031 message
So idk

[storm basin]

I mean that’s possible, but unless the guy can make a new order before the time ends, I guess it’d work

Wait, wasn’t Si-Sok getting resupplied by you?

[real minnow]

that's the 3rd then, sweet

[storm basin]

I remember that one as they were giving me their full supplies

I can help ya doing some checking, but I cannot confirm STAINZ is gonna be able to make a new order

[real minnow]

All good, he's "waiting for healing" During Strategic Mode, I'm sure it'll be fine

[storm basin]

nvm

I’m dumb
