Tag: LA01A232214B2Briefing
Location: Esamir
Time: 0342 hours
Base: Mani Bio Lab
Attacking Unit: "Darklight" Company32214B2
Accompanying Units: Darklight Galaxy Transport, Darklight Close Air Support, Base Patrol Security and Back-capture Prevention Squadron
Opponent: Vanu Sovereignty"Back in the Galaxy! Let's go scum!" I scream.
"Yes, Lieutenant Commander!" My squadron scrambles to their feet and loads up into our squadron's Galaxy. That was a good cap. I take my seat in the transport aircraft, pull the roller coaster-style harness down over my head, and click the belt into the buckle. The cargo door slowly lifts and closes. I wait for the Company Commander to give his orders.
"Listen up officers!" The man yells into the platoon leader channel. "Next sector will be Mani. We'll need to capture the Bio Lab and all of the bases adjacent. We have a quota of capturing 20 bases in 12 hours. We've been fighting since sunset and we will fight until sunrise and we've taken 10 bases so far, but command is willing to give us all bonuses for this Bio Lab like they do for every major facility. You know this already.
The thing is, recon discovered that the Vanu are experimenting with new strands of plants, herbs, and food. Our primary mission of today is that Bio Lab. Everything we capture after that is a bonus. The brass is feeling extremely generous tonight. Don't bloody fail me or I will literally burn you all alive in the public square! Think I'm joking? Test me and we'll see how far empty threats go! Got me?!" he snarls.
"Yes, Captain!" we all snap boldly. He's not joking around.
Major facilities always give us bonuses. That, I like. Bio Labs, however. Not so much. Thankfully, the Republic doesn't permit the formation of militia, gangs, or guilds as every soldier is registered into the Grand Army. Otherwise, we would fight as recklessly as the New Conglomerate, where tactics are thrown out the window or as pathetic as the Vanu where they try to rely on their false gods to protect them.
