((Isn't Ratodx about the same size as Vhan. If so we could both fit into a small hole.))

Vhan just became best Kobold Waifu.

Reseti, can your birds fly in the dark? Can they silently deploy Ratodx and Vhan, and maybe someone else behind the moot (the hill keep) for them to prepare some mischief before our night attack?

"Never tried passengers before. They may be able to carried in the claws or the lightest on the saddle with my, but either way, deployment from the bird will be risky. I can get them there, though."

"Let's make the infiltration by land, then. Some other time we should consider acclimatizing the birds to the other team members, though, maybe we could use the tactical flexibility."

"Let me brief everybody at once, just a moment..."
Amadou links to all team members' comms and patches the call to the room's main screen.

"Guys, here's the updated plan. If anyone has anything to say, please speak up.

The first phase will have us by the village on the VTOL. Before landing, we'll use the plane's sensor suite to scan the terrain and find both an appropriate landing zone and two or three evacuation routes to a secondary and tertiary LZs if everything goes really pear-shaped. This data will be fed to everyone's helmets - did you learn how to use overlays and windows?
Reseti will keep overwatch with his bird while we'll use the trike to go to the gates and run back if necessary.

The second phase is if the diplomacy fails: we'll extract back to the VTOL and redeploy out of sight, and wait until nightfall. I'm considering delaying our departure so we'll arrive for phase one in the middle or late afternoon, so we won't have to wait too long in the wilderness risking being found by a forester or a scouting patrol.

We close back on the village - the trike can take four passengers, maybe six if you cram and breathe one at a time. Sorry, that was a joke, but it'd be really tight.
Reseti says that he could carry Vhan, maybe Ratodx, but it might take two trips to assemble the team on the secondary LZ, which will also be our staging area.

Vhan and Ratodx are to wait until we're in position, I don't want them unassisted if the infiltration goes wrong. Reseti once again is to keep an eye on them, relay video of the enemy's movements, and help if needed, or maybe even take them out of there - but that will be for him to decide. Ideally we'd have the VTOL transmitting the data, but they haven't been ordered to help, so we can't count on it.

If the village surrenders, we wait there for the militia to find the vampire; otherwise we'll have to set up search parties to look for it on foot. Either way, we loot for knowledge and put it in the VTOL if it's around.

We'll go to the vampire by VTOL, but we need to see how that goes."

"No complaints here. Heading back to the barracks now." Danh says over comms, as he begins moving back to the barracks from the cafeteria.

Sounds good to me.

Dexter goes back to the gun range to practice some more(if allowed) and then heads back to the barracks, showers, and goes to bed.
