Right, well I have added some Aubrey questions.

WE ARE DOING THIS*

*this being dying horribly because we're continuously biting off more than we can chew OH BOY

EDIT: Err, so how difficult is it getting to Ka's ship? I'm not sure how to picture the 'cradles' the ships are in, or if there are guards on the way?

Would it be sensible for Aubrey to come with King Boris? Perhaps we could have one of the two more fighty dudes fly back the Sled so we can both take on Ka's ship?

I'd definitely recommend storming Ka's ship in force just in case. It'll hopefully be unguarded, but Aubrey is probably best suited to pilot it and poorly suited to taking out stragglers.

Ty and Tagget can almost assuredly "pilot" a ship if you need them to.

Wow. It's 5:48am and...I just had a dream of the combination of Draig's tech and creativity, with the techline of Legend of Korra, in the timeline of AtlA. :I
At least I could manipulate water VERY, VERY WELL. :D
But goodness such a dream--I blame Draig for all of this D:<
It even had zombies [ok not really, but the vampire-esque not-Twilight type], and superheroes [or at least, people who manipulated energy and chi a lot]. >_>

But mostly the existence of individual bore jumpers versus mythological ghosts and drowned souls. :I And traversing the seas in submarines of polished iron and brass. And the skies with bombing airships and fire-ships. And earthbenders versus tech-manipulating archers.

Draignean! D:<
We BETTER do something well in this prologue or else I'm going to roll around in the Reunion and...and not wipe my feet on the "Welcome" doormat!

Right so let's let Ty and Tagget fly the Sled and the shuttle home, and Aubrey and Boris hopefully not die going a (ship's) bridge too far.


edit: I've edited the actions. I'm very sorry Draignean if I've just made a complete and unclear mess... but you get the idea?

I love how nobody tries to contact Kes because she has info on the ship, at least in general, and can focus the scanners to check it out since Ka-T is probably space taffy'ing right now to hang onto something and probably stick somewhere. :P
Hopefully he doesn't have an automatic 'get this ship to my position' encoder, because my AIDS is still ringing and I've made it a note in Kesari's current priority to 'forget' to make a quick-shutoff. So it'll be about a half-action to get that without any trace of our meddling.

Maybe time to enter the timeslip again with me on ship and my action :P

I think because we've discussed at length in the OOC we've probably forgotten that extra detail...

Don't worry about it c: I bet I'm in a timeslip again anyway :P
I mean Boris got there in one 'turn' so...cheers! :3

Since Kes' mentioned way back in the IC that she linked up your comms with the Reunion, she kinda knows what's going on if she noticed--so she's feeding the information to you while you go.

...Err, presuming that one action in the bunch. I'll edit that in, in a new post to try and scan and check around instead.

I feel like I'm overwhelming Draig's generosity with tons of actions :S

No one but Sadish has ever been in a timeslip. No. In general principle, I dislike them because they knot up my causality.

Can I assume or add my scanning actions to my action back there? :D

And!
Draig: Compared to the Reunion, what can you say about the Al-Loy security ship if it faced off against us?
If I missed any response back in the day about this.

Because I tried searching and can't find it. :-[ Want to run the Reunion in and bomb the ship.
Also! :O
Can we get a general location of us in the star system + relevant entities? I'm thinking in a model of -'s + tt tags. Like:

System Edge - - - - - - - - !!! - - - - - [Probably the System Sun/Center]
Reunion - - - - - - Flounder - - - - - - - - - -** - - Cloaked Ship

!!! and *** have alt-text; I can't see the underline due to being on Chrome. Mobile users won't see that dotted underline either.

I keep wanting to poke Draig but it'd feel hypocritical for certain reasons.

So instead I'll ask how Ka is going to explain losing not only the panther but possibly his ship to the superior(s) Mickaw implied he has.

"There must have been quite a number of them to overwhelm your forces."
"I... may have only ever seen three at a time, but one can assume."
"They must have had the finest equipment and training to best our operatives!"
"'Equipment' and 'training' might be strong words, but yes, clearly."
"Truly we face a deliberate and coordinated assault from cunning professionals deeply aware of our plans!"
"I am not... entirely certain they know the meaning of any of the words in that sentence."

I literally just popped the turn out of my inbox to continue working on it. The guilt has admittedly been chewing at me.

EDIT: Ugh. By the power of the cheesemeister, we're getting there. I really should have done a couple little micro-turns right after the last one.

I like how--given darkling format--the darkblue to purple bits seem to mean 'embarassment' and it jives with how it is the hardest to see in this forum format :P

I sorely wish to know how good our C&C area is, from "Civilian" to "Military" to "Alpha" :P

Goodness when I read your post, I felt a flashback of nostalgia as I did my game...sorry, it always keeps popping up whenever :-\
But big support to you. You're consistent (and have many obstacles from anxiety cleared \o/)

Also I remember that one response to a PM; thanks for the kindness c:

...if Ka-T doesn't have bore jumping powers, who will pick him up? Some poor ship wondering what this rainbow taffy is? :P
One can only imagine! (and then find out later through GM prologue-ish powers)
