Argh. Sorry for the obviously rushed and borint post. Continuously swamped with work recently so just couldn't get my head around a coherent post. However, I still wanted to put out what happened so I did it in a very straight forward way. Once again, sorry.

Pfffff. It isn't. Anyway, I edited in some minor changes and additions to give it a little more details and corrected some of the more obvious 'unflowingness'.

I have nothing else planned for the moment in terms of IC post. If any of you folks have any suggestions, let me know and I'll see how I can work things in.

EVER FORWARD!

I'm gonna smash our storylines together. Let it never be said that Roy Smith couldn't figure out a way to profit from both sides of a war.

Do you want to do a joint post? We could exchange over email or Google Docs.

I was thinking that S&H would smuggle out the resistance basically by disassembling their 'Mechs and everything from the Star League facility that they could, then smuggling the rebels to their ship by disguising them as their own workers. That way, everything just looks like ordinary salvage.

They give the FWL the "victory" over the rebels they're looking for basically by letting them shoot at some 'Mechs, so the 2nd Battalion buggers off. S&H then loads up the survivors, sells some parts to the FWL, then leave Talitha with a complete contract and a hull full of Star League equipment they split between the survivors.

That was going to be my suggestion too, Google Docs works fine for me.

I was thinking that the Blackjack and Hetzer can easily pass through as S&H equipment. The Mongoose will have to hide it out at the excavation site after the Leaguers pull out though. Between its BAP and the enhanced EW system on the Packrat, they should be able to avoid any enemies and make it to Tango Six Six undetected and safely. Anyone and everything else can either stay with the Mongoose and continue to break the security to open up the cache or follow your people back to Charity Heights or wherever you are based to hand over salvaged material and what not to the FWLM.

This sorts of cover how the 2 of us hook up. We have to bring the others into the picture too.

I should be posting again, tonight or tomorrow night at the latest. Going to meet with Rabbit's group first, while the Doc works on Cool Hand's friend. Hope to be able to tell him how that surgery went by then.
