Nightowl. Conversation over. No more warnings.
To respond, one last time. This is a standard, no expectations, exploration mission. A SAINT attachment is there purely as an intelligence asset, not as an assassin. If he's been brought in for any reason other than his SAINT intelligence training, it's because we need extra infantry. Nothing more. I'm sorry if that's a bit disappointing to you, but that's the long and short of it.
And one last note, the range on the NSP? It's 300 plus meters, not 300 meters. It's a lightspeed weapon, with almost zero diffusion at range. You can snipe with it just as well, if not better, than literally ANY solid munitions weapon.
