Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tau sat back as one scout went out, when no others followed he decided he may as well volunteer to keep warm. Tau stepped forward and said through chattering teeth "Sir...I will also go on the s-s-scout sir..." With that Tau went off and followed Chi for some time. After a certain point Tau broke off to gain some recon on the seperatists. There was only so much you could learn through magnification from far off. Laying a top a ridge of ice, being careful to cover up his colours with snow Tau peered out from where he hid at the forces moving about.

Over the ridge Tau spotted a few drop ships that were preparing to take off after ecently supplying more troops. There were a couple AATs, they were lined up in such a way Tau could only see the legs of others hidden behind the bulk of one. He tried to count the legs but kept losing count. There were three boats sitting in the harbour.

Tau slid down the ridge and wiated till it was clear to sprint back. Getting low he made his way. After traveling the short distance he krept back to the others position, taking deep breaths to keep his heart rate low. He slowly said to copy between each breath, "Sir...there may be as many as three to four tanks over there...some Seps have recently landed supplying the area with more troops...and there are some boats in the harbour." Tau finished and waited for the proper plan to be thought up using the newly aquired information.

The Clone nodded slowly, takining in the information. He looked back out across the ridge then back to his squad.
"Hey psycho? how do you feel about a career in mining?"

" I dont....but i dont think thats what Theta ment. Besides....the group will not like us just going off! we might indanger the mission. "

Delta's armer was keeping him warm enough. But the heat coming from Omega's suit was doing well too. Looking around again he saw a scout unit.

" OMEGA DOWN!! " Delta knew this big thing was not going to hide. Delta pulled out a rifle and took aim.

" Guys we got scouts heading this way! I got a shot.....should i take it? Or will the sound be enough to tell them we are here? This thing is not quiet! "

Delta waited and still took am at the droid still not seeing him or the bulk under him.

"What do you mean, sargent? I have a fusion torch, not an arc weilder. How about you come up with a plan that involves a tool I actually would want to carry?" Theta retorted, absolutely indignified that he would be caught with enough gas to refil Sigma's tank.

((A torch is not a wielding device, its a cutting device. Torches are unable to put two pieces together; too much heat causes the metal to lose its strength and is incapable of a good joint. Just in case you wonder why the statement was said.))

"Fine... It may take a while... Its not a industrial Flamethrower after all..." Theta moaned, getting up and heading to Chi.

"One question before we head off. How thick is the walls or pillars I'm going to have to cut through? This thing is like a needle, not a hacksaw, and if its over a foot thick, It'll take hours to cut a single hole."

"Ask Chi. she scouted it. and if you need extra help, Meat has a flame thrower he could use. Now get moving."

"Oh boy, I get to snipe without a sniper rifle. Fun fun," Sigma muttered as he moved into position. Since his rifle had no scope, he moved himself over a ledge and got ready to shoot.
