(( Hmm ok, does it have any kind of scale to tell us how far away it is? Can we see anything coming at us from outside?

Sorry just need some idea of a time frame before I can work anything else out. ))

We have two options here;

Either the weather display survived, and there is a sh... snowstorm incoming;

Or Chaos troops want us to believe just that, and have set up a trap inside here.

I somehow are led to believe the later option to be more realistic. Immediate scan is in order.

You can't see anything either, the mountains block anything you might have seen from view.

(( I dunno, but we have limited time if it's a storm so work to get done. ))

Load the veteran infantry and 2 infantry with hotshots into the salamanders and have them patrol the outside of the outpost to report anything coming at us. Don't engage anything. Also have the scouts do this. They're to fall back to the tunnel if engaged or they see what ever is coming.

Place 3 infantry squads in each of the 10 halftracks and have them spread out through the outpost to strip every possibly useful supply they can find and load it into the halftracks. Have all remaining units except the command battalion head into the tunnel with, send the heavy battalions flammer units in first to scout ahead of the rest.

I think we should storm the building quickly. There is urgency, but go in expecting a trap, and expecting resistance.

[Patrick Hunt]

(( I agree, but we might need the supplies if we're here for a while so I figured sent a unit in and send others for supplies.

A tunnel does mean limited space so even if we sent everybody in only a small number could actually do anything so I figured the best choice was to just do both.

Sorry, if it's a bad idea I can remove it. ))

[Rolepgeek]

It's a decent idea, just thought it should be amended a bit. Yours is just suggesting scavenging. I'm suggesting storming and scavenging.

[adwarf]

Do you guys want to take supplies and load them into the infantry halftracks? Because the supply halftracks came filled to the brim already with food, munitions, building supplies, etc.

(( Uhm the second half of the second paragraph of mine includes storming the tunnel to check it's clear. And yeah thats the idea, thats why I only said 3 infantry squads in each when they can hold 5, it leaves space for the supplies. The 9 centaurs can be used for supplies as well if the halftracks get full and we have time. ))

The centaurs carry munitions, and crewmen for the Heavy Mortars.

[Patrick Hunt]

(( It says they have 0/1 though? So couldn't you just stack supplies in the space meant for people? Or did that just not get updated to 1/1. ))

It just didn't get updated, but that is more towing capacity then anything else, it either carries the mortars and their crew or it doesn't carry the heavy mortar at all.

Posting to watch.

(( Ahhh ok sorry, my mistake. ))
