36 Hours Later, 1200 Shipboard Time.
“Ok, cool, we have enough people to use this room.” Wazu said as the Junker drones began removing the plastic tarps from the numerous chairs in the theater like briefing room.
After the drama on the course and elsewhere the shore leave was brought to a close. Everyone had some time to sleep, eat, shower, and have some time to them selves before being called up for the briefing.
“Sorry for cutting things short,” Wazu said, standing near a large display screen near the front of the room. “But between malfunctioning soldiers and events throughout the universe we need to start working on our next operation if we are going to make best use of the situation that is developing.”
“A large push is going to be made towards the UOC capital, the specifics of which matter less than the fact that a lot of starships are going to be involved in that operation. This will give us a good opportunity to run around and start bashing things in NMX territory without much worry of reprisal.
While our space assets will be hitting a variety of targets, there are three in particular I would like to discuss. Keep in mind that we will have to pick one of these operations to see to ourselves.
The first is Sbuhfaba, a system that has gone back and forth between Yamatai, the Reds, and the NMX for a while. There are considerable shipyard facilities in this system that we could capture and use to produce additional ships for the fleet. This would involve a space to space attack in power armors to clear out the shipyards command and control centers.
Then there is Tange, it has only a few thousand citizens of the UOC and it is mainly out of the way of the heavy fighting. We could get in and out with minimal threat from NMX starships since they should be drawn to Jiyuu. This is likely to be a cakewalk for us and it could net us some future help from whatever is left of the UOC. The marine ground group will need to protect the landing areas and keep the Civvies from rioting. This will be a defensive, ground based, operation.
Finally there is System 87B, We are not entirely too sure what is here but NMX ships are coming and going very often so it is clearly something important. While the fleet destroys targets in orbit around the primary world, the marine group would head to the surface, gather what Intel it can, and cause as much destruction as possible before leaving. Dust storms and specialized shields keep us from seeing what is on the surface of the primary would so bombardments will have to be called in the old fashioned way. You can expect a fast moving ground based operation here.
What I want from you is your thoughts. We need to decide where we are going to commit this ship and the marines onboard, then determine the best way of going about the operation.”
