21:10Bot:=/\= Wren gets no response from the colony, but does detect a jamming device in the area. =/\=
21:11Moonshadows:TAC>::She mutters quietly, remembering a Kzin that did not want to take "no" for an answer::
21:12CaptMcCloud:(Hello? Wren?)
21:13Lt_Wren:OPs >[ CP ] :: hails the colony :: I'm not getting any rejsponse captain.

21:15CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] Can you locate the source?
21:15Moonshadows:TAC>::Makes sure to check the asteroid belt for hiddeen ships::
21:16Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] It's close to the planet... :: Looks at his console:: Looks like it is in the planet's orbit.
21:17CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] Can we determine who it belongs to?
21:17Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Ass soon as we get closer to the planet, Sir.
21:19CaptMcCloud:CO >[ HELM ] Put us in standard orbit above Bysus II, Ensign.
21:19EnsVarelNerik:Helm >[ CO ] :: assumes standard orbit ::'

21:20CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] Scan the settlement, Lt. At least tell me there is still life down there.
21:21Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] :: scanning:: Yes, Sir. I am reading approxinately six hundred life signs.
21:22CaptMcCloud:CO >[ NOIP ] That's about right. :: Looks at the screen as the planet now occupies part of it.:: [ SCI ] What about that jammer?
21:23Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] It looks to be... Orion in origin, Sir.
21:24CaptMcCloud:CO > :: grimaces:: [ NOIP ] That means almost anyone could have placed it there. [ TAC ] Target practice time, Lt. Moonshadows.
21:26CaptMcCloud:(;; hears the crickets chirp as he awaits a response:: )
21:28Bot:=/\=ACTION: Tactical takes out the jamming device with one quick shot. =/\=
21:28CaptMcCloud:CO >[ XO ] I'm taking a team down to the surface. You have the bridge.
21:29Dr_Fenway:AMO > :: does a small fist-pump as the sattelite is destroyed::

21:34Lt_Wren:xo >[ ceng ] no, just surprised. :: moves to the CO chair :: The only sign of distress is the orion jammer, hopefully it will go smoothly
21:34Moonshadows:TAC>::She pulls her phaser belt over her shoulder, across her chest, checks the spare powerpacks, enters the lift::
21:35CaptMcCloud:CO > :: steps out of the lift and heads to the TR::
21:35Dr_Fenway:AMO > :: enters the TR, grabbing the med-kit::
21:36LtCdr_Hart:CENG >[ XO ] I wonder why the skipper decided to go on this one.
21:36CaptMcCloud:CO > :: grabs a service phaser, hands one to Banning and Fenway::
21:37JazzyFarrell:Sec>:Gets strapped up before stepping on the Transporter pad. Beats the hell out of me!@
21:37CmdrJorel:xo >[ ceng ] he gets bored just sitting up here.

21:37Lt_Banning:SCI > :: takes the phaser, double-checks his tricorder::
21:39Bot:=/\=ACTION: The team beams down to Bysus II. The sun is warm on them, but the climate is nice. There is a small community about one hundred yards to the north. Some people can be seen milling about. =/\=
21:40LtCdr_Hart:CENG >[ XO ] Now THAT I can buy.
21:41Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ CO ] That would be their main village, Captain. There are two more about ten kliks in either direction.
21:41Moonshadows:@TAC>::Raises her head, tests the air:: [CO] No scent of Kzin. No scent of battle....
21:42CaptMcCloud:@ CO >[ SCI ] Well, let's go see if there's anyone to talk to. Ensign Farrell, you have point.
21:42JazzyFarrell:@ SEC>: Aye!
21:43Dr_Fenway:@ AMO > :: scans with his tricorder:: [ CO ] Plenty of life signs, Captain.
21:43CaptMcCloud:@ CO >[ AMO ] Good to know, Doc.
21:43CaptMcCloud:@ CO > :: Moves out behind Farrell::
21:44CmdrJorel:xo >[ ceng ] so can I. :: goes back to reading over reports ::
21:44Dr_Fenway:@ AMO > :: Walking along scanning as they move::
21:45Bot:=/\=ACTION: They enter the village. Some of the kids playing stop and look at the Starfleet officers, Moon in particular. Business seems to be business as usual. =/\=
21:45Moonshadows:@TAC>::Takes the left flank::
21:46CaptMcCloud:@ CO >[ TAC ] You seem to be the belle of the ball, Lt.
21:47Dr_Fenway:@ AMO >[ NOIP ] No surprise there. Some of these kids probably have never been off-world.
21:47Moonshadows:@TACC {CO] If one is to wear a fur, one gets the best, sir!
21:48Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ CO ] The admin building is in the center of the village, Sir. I am detecting their sub-space receiver now, Sir.
21:50CaptMcCloud:@ CO > :: chuckles at Moon's comment:: [ SCI ] Thank you, Lieutenant. [ TAC ] When we get there, Lt. Please set up on the outside with Ensign Farrell.
21:51Moonshadows:@TAC>[CO] Aye sir....
21:52Bot:=/\= The Team makes their way through the village. It is quaint, but there are signs of technology in some of the ships they pass. =/\=
21:52Moonshadows:@TAC>[SEC] I am with yhou, Jazzy Farrel.... The Domestic and the Feral!
21:52Dr_Fenway:@ AMO >[ NOIP ] This is really a pleasant enough town.
21:53Lt_Banning:@ SCI >[ AMO ] It sure is.
21:53Lt_Banning:# SCI >[ CO ] This is the admin building, Sir.
21:54CaptMcCloud:@ CO > :: Nods to Moon to set up, and heads in with Fenway and Banning::
21:54JazzyFarrell:@ SEC> ::Covers Moon nodding to her.::
21:55Moonshadows:@TAC>[SEC} I defer to you, Jazzy Farrel, Ship to ship is my job...
21:55Bot:=/\= Inside is a small office type environment. There is a small console off to the right side that houses the sub-space transmitter/receiver. It also shows the Eagle in orbit. =/\=
21:56Bot:Administrator Morris> :: Looks up from his work. Says to his assistant:: Well, I'll be, Betsy. Starfleet is finally here.
21:57CaptMcCloud:@ CO >[ Morris ] Administrator. I am Captain Rayne McCloud of the starship Eagle.
21:58Bot:@ Administrator >[ CO ] You mean the Federation really does care about its citizens? We've been trying to get ahold of you for weeks now.
21:58CaptMcCloud:@ CO >[ Admin ] And Starfleet has been trying to get ahold of you as well. We are warning all Federation colonies of the possibility you may have to be evacuated.
21:59Bot:@ Admin >[ CO ] Evacuated? Whatsoever for?
22:00CaptMcCloud:@ CO >[ ADMIN ] The Kzinti and Lyrians are on the brink of war. We're hoping to help mediate things, but it doesn't look good. You being so close to the border are in danger.
22:00Moonshadows:@TAC>::She stands to outside the door.... Considers, pullks out a cigar and lights up, amazing children::
22:00Bot:@ ADMIN >[ CO ] Not now that you're here, we're not.

21:01CaptMcCloud:Good evening, Eagle Crew. I hope this week is finding you in as good spirits as I am. I am in very good spirits, and I don't mean from drinking. :)
Have you all read the mission brief and do we have any questions?
21:02Dr_Fenway:Read the brief, no questions, Captain.
21:02Moonshadows:Read, understood, no questions
21:02CmdrJorel:read, no questions
21:02Lt_Banning:Yes and no, Sir.
21:04LtCdr_Hart:No questions, Skipper.
21:04CaptMcCloud:Alright then, let's ...

21:04**JazzyFarrell entered the room.
21:05JazzyFarrell:::AA::
21:05CaptMcCloud:@ CO > :: standing in the administrator's office::
21:05JazzyFarrell:(Sorry I'm late, computer was being a brat again!))
21:05Moonshadows:@TAC>::She stands outside with Ms. Farrell, watching the door::
21:06Lt_Banning:@ SCI > ::in the office with the captain::
21:06Dr_Fenway:@ AMO > :: also in the office with the captain.::
21:06CmdrJorel:xo> :: on the bridge ::

21:07JazzyFarrell:@ SEC>: Keeps an eye on the door and anyone who passes.
21:08LtCdr_Hart:CENG > :: in cargo bay 3, where the debris from the jamming device has been brought on to the ship::
21:09Moonshadows:@ TAC>[SEC] Jazzy Farrell, I think we are not needed here....
21:10CaptMcCloud:@ CO >[ ADMIN ] Are you aware, at all, of what is going on with the Kzinti?
21:10Lt_Wren:Ops> :: in cargo bay 3 working on the jamming device ::
21:10Bot:@ ADMIN >[ CO ] ::frowns:: No. In fact, we haven't had any contact with the Kzinti for almost as long as the Federation.
21:11Bot:=/\=ACTION: @ Curious colonists come looking at the two guards in front of the Admin building, and are REALLY curious about Moonshadows. =/\=
21:12LtCdr_Hart:CENG >[ OPS ] Well it is definitely Orion in manufacture. But... did the Orions place it here?
21:13Lt_Wren:Ops >[ CEng ] Somehow I doubt it.
21:13CaptMcCloud:@ CO >[ ADMIN ] That is curious, and I wonder if it is so conincidental.
21:14Bot:@ ADMIN >[ CO ] Coincidental? You think the Kzinti planted the.... "jamming" device you mentioned?
21:15LtCdr_Hart:CENG >[ OPS ] So far, I'm not seeing ANYTHING that points to the anyone but the Orions.
21:16CaptMcCloud:@ CO >[ ADMIN ] That would be my thoughts, Administrator, but... for what purpose?
21:17Dr_Fenway:@ AMO >[ NOIP ] Perhaps the Kzinti would hope the Federation would take a "no see, no remember" stance with this colony.
21:17Lt_Wren:Ops >[ CEng ] If they bought it from the orions and didn't upgrade it change it, would we find anything that would indicate someone else?
21:19Bot:@ ADMIN > :: looks aghast at such a suggestion:: [ AMO ] Surely we are not the most important colony to the Federation, but we are still Federation citizens.
21:19JazzyFarrell:@ SEC> ::Raises an eyebrow at the colonist.::
21:20Bot:@ Small Boy> :: walks bravely up to Moonshadows:: [ TAC ] Are you really a giant pussy cat?
21:21Lt_Wren:Ops >[ CEng ] Could that ferengi that we caught crossing the border have sold the Orion jamming devices to the Kzinti?

21:21LtCdr_Hart:CENG >[ OPS ] They would still have had to handle it. At least to put it in service. I wonder if we can find any of the programming control panels. See if .. ::chuckles:: any fur was left behind.
21:22Bot:@ Small Boy> :: His eyes widen:: [ TAC ] And.... you can TALK!!
21:23JazzyFarrell:@ SEC smiles.
21:23Lt_Wren:Ops >[ CEng ] :: laughs and starts looking around ::
21:23Dr_Fenway:@ AMO >[ ADMIN ] I did not mean to suggest any such thing, Administrator. I am merely hypothesizing what would be in the mind of whomever planted that device in orbit.
21:24Moonshadows:@ TAC>[Small boy, and I can sing and dance ::Tailtightens into a corkscrew::

21:25Bot:@ Small Boy >[ TAC ] :: eyes widen again:: Really? Can I see?
21:26LtCdr_Hart:CENG >+[ XO ]+ At the moment, Commander, all we can definitely say is that it is Orion in origin. We are going to have to get more detailied scans of the equipment.
21:27Bot:@ :: a small girl sidles up next to the boy. She looks on in amazement at Moonshadows::

21:28Bot:@ :: both children cover their ears and giggle at Moon's singing.::
21:29CaptMcCloud:@ CO >[ ADMIN ] We will find ot who planted the device, Administrator. We just ask that you start to advise the colonists of the possible event of evacuation.

21:16LtCdr_Hart:CENG >[ SCI ] Which is true as long as there is only one, maybe two Kzinti ships.
21:16CaptMcCloud:CO > :: steps into the lift:: Bridge.
21:17Lt_Banning:SCI > :: enters the lift and waits on Hart then says,:: Sick Bay.
21:18LtCdr_Hart:CENG > :: rides in slience, then asks:: [ SCI ] How WAS the captain down there?
21:19Lt_Banning:SCI > :: Looks at Hart questioningly:: [ CENG ] It went fine. Is there a reason to think it wouldn't?
21:20CaptMcCloud:CO > :: steps out onto the bridge, gets a report from Commander Jorel and lets her go off on break:: [ TAC ] How are our friends out there doing?
21:20Moonshadows:TAC >[ CO ] He's keeping his distance sir, being peaceful. I have him plotted in case he moves.
21:20LtCdr_Hart:CENG >[ SCI ] Well, no, but.... Well, he never goes on away missions. I just wondered if it felt weird.
21:21Lt_Banning:SCI > :: thinks about the question a moment as the lift reaches its destination. The doors open and he steps out:: [ CENG ] Mmmm... I suppose it was, at that.
21:22LtCdr_Hart:CENG > :: Chuckles::
21:23Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CENG ] I think Moon might have felt it weird. :: Enters sick bay:: She seem to be quite the hit with some of the local kids.
21:23LtCdr_Hart:CENG >[ SCI ] Did she light up?
21:24Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CENG ] Yes, she did, and they were quite surprised. Even the adults were a bit wide eyed when we walked out of hte office.
21:25Dr_Fenway:AMO > :: Comes out of his office, hearing the last part of the conversation:: [ CENG/SCI ] You must be talking about Moonshadows and her cigar.
21:25LtCdr_Hart:CENG > :: Laughs:: [ AMO ] Indeed we were, Doc.
21:26Lt_Banning:SCI >[ AMO ] :: presents the box with the fragment:: We were wondering if you could see if there is any DNA on this fragment.
21:28CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] :: smiles:: Good. Are security teams ready just in case we get boarded?
21:28Moonshadows:TAC>::She refrains from locking targeting sensors on the Kzin:: Security patrols at condition yellow sir... Patrols are out and armed.
21:29Dr_Fenway:AMO > :: takes the box. Unseals it and looks at the fragment:: [ CENG ] I take it this is a piece of the jamming device?
21:30LtCdr_Hart:CENG >[ AMO ] :: nods his head:: Yeah. Is that going to pose a problem?
21:31CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] Very good. :: smiles a moment:: So.... quite an audience down there.
21:32Dr_Fenway:AMO > :: shrugs:: [ CENG ] It will be difficult, but if they touched this particular piece, I'll find something.
21:32Lt_Banning:SCI >[ AMO ] They have already scanned it pretty extensively, Doc.
21:32Moonshadows:TAC>]CO[ I liked the children, sir....
21:33Dr_Fenway:AMO >[ SCI ] :: smiles, like he has a secret:: But this is sick bay, Troy. And you brought it to me so you must think I can do more.
21:34CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] and it appears they liked you.
21:34LtCdr_Hart:CENG >[ AMO ] That's my hope as well, Doc.
21:35Dr_Fenway:AMO >[ CENG/SCI ] Let's see what we can do. :: takes the fragment back to his reasearch lab::
21:37CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] And they seemed to like you, but.. Did you need to light the cigar?
21:37Moonshadows:TAC>::Tail loops:: [CO] Smoking seems rare in this arm of the galaxy, sir.
21:38LtCdr_Hart:CENG > :: follows to the research lab. Looks around:: [ AMO ] Whoah! I didn't know you had all this equipment.
21:39Dr_Fenway:AMO >[ CENG ] Shhhhh.... Actually it was Daisy.... Dr. Compton who cobbled this lab together. She was working on a pretty sensitive project.
21:40CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] Yeah, it is. I actually never saw anyone light up intil you.
21:40Lt_Banning:SCI > :: Says nothing, just watches::
21:41LtCdr_Hart:CENG > :: friendly pats Troy on the shoulder:: [ SCI ] Good call, Troy.
21:42Dr_Fenway:AMO > :: carefully places the fragment into the analyzer. Activates it and watches the analyzation through the viewing glass. Data spools up on the nearby screen::
21:43LtCdr_Hart:CENG > :: watches the data spool up, nodding as he sees data they already found out::
21:43Moonshadows:TAC>[CO] I was introduced to smoking in the Academy, sir. A freighter captain, Pepper Keilor. Shje thought I needed a good bad habit, I agreed.
21:44Moonshadows:TAC>[CO] My company commander wasdisgusted.
21:44Lt_Banning:SCI > :: also watches the data:: [ CENG ] Definitely a piece of the programming panel. Good catch, Commander.
21:45LtCdr_Hart:CENG >[ SCI ] :: absently, as he continues reading the data:: It was Hailey, actually that found it.
21:45CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] :: chuckles:: Well, those things do smell...
21:46Bot:=/\=ACTION: Moon's console beeps an alert as a second Kzinti ship glides up alongside the first. =/\=
21:47Moonshadows:TAC>[CO] COntact! Second contact, designate Sigma two. Kzin cruiser! She's pulling into formation with the first Kzin. Starting torpedo plot!
21:49CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] Put them on screen.
21:49Dr_Fenway:AMO > :: continues watching the analyzation::
21:51Moonshadows:TAC> [CO] On screen, magnification, seven. Confirm Kzinti cruiser, Claw class.
21:51Lt_Banning:SCI > :: sees a set of readings:: [ NOIP ] There!
21:52Bot:=/\= The two Kzinti ships replace the orbit colony world. The second ship appears smaller than the first, but is fairly well armed. =/\=
21:52Dr_Fenway:AMO >[ SCI ] I see it, Troy. Good spotting. Now... :: directs a closed scan of the area.::
21:53CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] Tactical analysis?
21:54LtCdr_Hart:CENG >[ AMO ] Do you think there is enough for an I.D., Doc?
21:54Moonshadows:TAC>[CO] Weapons not powered. They are maintaining distance. Tracking, locked. Second ship, Claw class, heavy armament, shields, not so good. First ship, Fang class. Larger, heavier armament, better shields. Call for back up, sir?
21:55Dr_Fenway:AMO > :: Holds his hand up in a "wait" gesture. Scans another moment:: [ CENG ] I can definitely confirm that whomever programmed this device was Felinoid.
21:56CaptMcCloud:(Nice, Moon! I like the classifications for the ships.)
21:56Moonshadows:((Was Navy sir))
21:57CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] Shielding not so hot, eh? Not-so-hot enough that we could take it out quickly?
21:57CaptMcCloud:(Still that took some imagination to come up with "claw" and "fang")
21:58Moonshadows:TAC[CO] I can, IF they don'gt come at me together sir
21:58LtCdr_Hart:CENG >[ AMO ] But that could just as easily have been Moonshadows that programmed it.
21:59Dr_Fenway:AMO >[ CENG ] Could have been, but highly unlikely.
22:00LtCdr_Hart:CENG > :: actually laughs:: [ AMO ] Well done, Doc. You got a lot more off of it than we did. Can you send a copy of hte analysis to the captain?
22:00Dr_Fenway:AMO >[ CENG ] Of course.

21:00Moonshadows:::AA::
21:00LtCmdr_Hart:::AA::
21:01CaptMcCloud:Good evening, Crew. Good to see you all tonight, I hope your week is going well.
Have you all read the mission brief and do we have any questions?
21:02Lt_Banning:No questions, Sir.
21:02Dr_Fenway:No questions, Captain.
21:02LtCmdr_Hart:no questions here, either.
21:03Moonshadows:Read. Understood. No questions.
21:04CaptMcCloud:Okay then, let's...
=/\= BEGIN SIM =/\=
21:04CaptMcCloud:CO > :: on the bridge, in his usual spot::
21:05LtCmdr_Hart:CENG > :: on the bridge also::
21:06Lt_Banning:SCI > :: on the bridge at his station::
21:06Dr_Fenway:AMO> :: in sick bay::
21:07CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] Mr. Banning? What are our friends doing?
21:07Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Just sitting there, Sir. They have scanned us several times over, but that is about it.
21:08Moonshadows:TAC>[CO] The Kzin are holding position, confirmed... They are minding their manners...
21:09CaptMcCloud:CO > :: nods acknowledgement of Moon's report, but ponders aloud:: Why are they minding their manners? What do they want?
21:09JazzmineFarrell:SEC>: ON Patrol with Travis and some of the men.>: Here Kitty, kitty, kitty!
21:09LtCmdr_Hart:CENG >[ CO ] They have to know the jammer is gone.
21:10Moonshadows:TAC> {Co] Let them know a Sivoan is watching them, sir... ::Tailo lopps::
21:11CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] :: chuckles:: Think that will send them on their way, Moon?
21:13CaptMcCloud:CO > :: gives some thought:: [ HELM ] Break us out of orbit. Take us half way to the border, warp 1.
21:13Bot:HELM >[ CO ] Aye, Sir. Breaking orbit will go to warp when we clear the system.
21:14LtCmdr_Hart:CENG >[ CO ] Going to poke the bear, Captain?
21:14Moonshadows:TAC>[CO} I have fought Kzinti male... He did not want to take NO for an answer. He left.
21:14CaptMcCloud:CO >[ CENG ] More like poke the cat. ::chuckles:: Let's see what they do if we head toward them.
21:15Lt_Banning:SCI > :: scanning the two ships::
21:16Bot:=/\=ACTION: the Eagle jumps to warp 1 and quickly closes the distance to the border. =/\=
21:16Bot:HELM >[ CO ] Half way point, Captian.
21:17CaptMcCloud:CO >[ HELM ] Drop to impulse. Run a parallel course with the border.
21:17Bot:HELM >[ CO ] Aye, Sir. :: drops to impulse, adjusts course::
21:18Bot:=/\=ACTION: The larger of the two Kzinti ships suddenly turns from the border and jumps to warp, headed back into Kzinti space. =/\=
21:19Moonshadows:TAC>CO] Maintaining lock on smaller ship... Larger ship has broken tarketing lock.
21:19Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Looks like one of them had something better to do.
21:20CaptMcCloud:CO >[ NOIP ] Coincidental, or did we cause them to warp out?
21:21LtCmdr_Hart:CENG >[ CO ] Would be nice to think that is all it took was to move closer.
21:21CaptMcCloud:CO > :: Nods silently at Hart's comment::
21:22CaptMcCloud:CO >[ SCI ] Mr. Banning, what kind of crew compliment do they have on the smaller ship?
21:23Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] They have a crew compliment of about 100, Sir. That is considered a fast attack cruiser. Meant to get in try an inflict damage and get back out again.
21:23CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] Lt. Moonshadows? Can they inflict damage on us?
21:25Lt_Banning:SCI > :: still tracking the other ship on long-range sensors::
21:25Moonshadows:TQC>[CO] The ship is well aremd, but... I think our shield would hold, unless they somehow got extremely lucky sir.... If I were black, I'd cross their path!
21:27LtCmdr_Hart:CENG >[ TAC ] Time to think like a Felinoid, again. If you were on that ship, looking at us, Moon, what would your plan of attack be?
21:27CaptMcCloud:CO > :: glances to Moon, thinking that is an excellent question::
21:28Moonshadows:TAC> ::WIthout hesitation:: {CENG} I'd ask to beam aboard for a visit, and open fire when shields were dropped.
21:29LtCmdr_Hart:CENG >[ TAC ] So, you'd come in all friendly-like then open fire?
21:30Lt_Banning:SCI > :: looks with surprise at Moon::
21:30Moonshadows:TAC>[Knowing we out gun and out shield them, it would be the only feasable way.... Unless they rammed...
21:31Lt_Banning:SCI >[ TAC ] But, ramming would be a one-way mission, wouldn't it?
21:32Bot:=/\=ACTION: Sensors show that the Kzinti ship is now moving, but in a parallel course along the border. =/\=
21:33Moonshadows:TAC>[SCI] It would trade a small Kzin crew for a larger Federation crew, and leave the larger ship in the area. And, I admit I have a low opinion of Kzinti logic...
21:34LtCmdr_Hart:CENG >[ TAC ] Do we have any examples of them going the old kamikazee route?
21:34Lt_Banning:SCI > :: turns and quieties the database::
21:35Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] Sir, the Kzinti ship is on the move. They're holding a parallel course along the border like us.
21:35Moonshadows:TAC>[SCI] There are examples in the records. The battle at Epsilon Sextantis, for example.
21:36Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CENG ] Confirmed, Commander. And it was also very effective.
21:37LtCmdr_Hart:CENG > :: Frowns:: [ TAC/SCI ] They have to be closer to us for that to be an effective ploy. I mean, we wouldn't just WATCH them come across at us.
21:38CaptMcCloud:CO >[ NOIP ] Not if *I* have anything to say about it.
21:39CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] Do they have anything special about that cruiser? Will it stand up to our weapons fire should it take a suicide run at us?
21:41Lt_Banning:SCI > :: tries to get a better scan of the smaller ship::
21:41Lt_Banning:SCI >[ CO ] I'm not seeing anything special in their hull configuration.
21:42Moonshadows:TAC>[CO] I estimate... Three torpedos, shields down. Two more, ship is rubble. I cannot tell if they have the famed "secret weapon", however...
21:42LtCmdr_Hart:CENG > :: Moves over to look at Banning's console::
21:43CaptMcCloud:CO > :: turns again looking at Moonshadows:: [ TAC ] The *what* secret weapon?
21:45LtCmdr_Hart:CENG> :: also looks at Moon::
21:46Moonshadows:TAC>::Tail corkscrews tightly:: DO you not watch the thriller videos? There is ALWAYS a secret weapon!
21:47CaptMcCloud:CO > :: his face lightens up. Laughs:: [ TAC ] Of course! The *ram* secret weapon.
21:47LtCmdr_Hart:CENG > :: Laughs also:: [ NOIP ] How could we have forgotten about that?
21:48Lt_Banning:SCI > :: looks about in a bit of confusion, not certain what they're talking about::
21:49CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] The important thing to consider, providing they don't have the secret ram weapon, is that right now they wouldn't stand a chance in actually ramming us.
21:51LtCmdr_Hart:CENG >[ CO ] Providing they don't come up with a way to distract us.
21:52CaptMcCloud:CO >[ CENG ] Turn our attention away, and let them get close enough.... ::Nods:: We will have to be careful about that.
21:53Bot:OPS >[ CO ] Captain. I've just been notified that the U.S.S. Dauntless is now in the area.
21:53Moonshadows:TAC>::Runs a fast equation::[CO] Factoring in my reaction time... Reload... Torpedo runs.... He is space dust at 5r00,000 KM from ujs sirf
21:54CaptMcCloud:CO > :: smiles:: The Dauntless, eh?
21:55CaptMcCloud:CO >[ TAC ] good to know, Moon. Keep that in your head.
21:55LtCmdr_Hart:CENG >[ CO ] :: looks questioningly at McCloud:: You know of the Dauntless, Sir. I'm not familiar.
21:56Moonshadows:TAC>[CO] Aye sir.... Torpedos on stand by, phaqsers charged.
21:56CaptMcCloud:CO >[ CENG ] ::nods:: MY old ship... From Pasteur. Defiant-class.
21:57LtCmdr_Hart:CENG >[ CO ] ::smiles:: Defiant-class, eh? I like them. Powerful and fast little ships.
21:57Lt_Banning:SCI >[ NOIP ] Won't be much good if we need to evacuate a colony.
21:58LtCmdr_Hart:CENG >[ SCI ] Not with the actual evacuation, no, but keeping any enemy ships away... yes!
21:59CaptMcCloud:CO >[ OPs ] Send my best to the CO of Dauntless and bid them welcome to the region.
