Whether the rolls are good or bad it's still ammunition to give you a hard time over. Ask Anthony he thought I would be unhappy with the reinforcements DCA supplied me with, only thing I had a minor issue with was the mech, better armor than a hussar, but not by much.

“Kapten Marius Bjornsen” Jack extends out his hand. “I am Jack Nakatomi. I am the liaison for Chiji Meiyo Saganami and the GSF.”
Kapten Bjomsen looks over the man and takes his hand. “My pleasure Mr. Nakatomi.” He can tell that this man has former military service by the way he holds himself.
“Please call me Jack. I will have personal help your unit get loaded so we can get you to the base you will be housed at.”
“Thank You Jack. How long of a flight will it be? My people have been cooped up in DropShips for the last six weeks.”
“It will only be a couple hours. I have a DropShip that will get you to your post and you will have plenty of room to get use to the ground.”
“So what is our post?”
“Your unit will be posted with two other units at our base just outside of the City of Hilo.” Jack hands a data pad to the Kapten. “You will find this very useful during your stay. I has the local laws and a guide of the planet. If you have any questions just ask me.”
“Thank You. Do you know when I will get to meet Governor Saganami?”
“She will meet with you shortly after you settle in.”

Kapten Bjornsen nodded, “No questions at this time. At least none I can think of. If you’ll excuse me, i’d Like to make sure the transfer is going smoothly.”

Mr. Nakitomi nodded and motioned to the door, “If you need anything let me know. I’ll be glad to help.”

 Bjornsen smiled wistfully as he left the meeting with Mr Nakitomi. His thoughts drifted towards the future and the job ahead. “This mission should be a good first blooding for the unit as a whole. Especially for the disparate elements that only worked together in training, like the infantrymen in the Kobold suits and the armor unit. Ah, well. Hilo here we come.”

Upon returning to the landing port for the Dropship, where his team was being loaded onto another Dropship. He looked around and spotted his Senior Tech, and called out to him, “Viir, anything break during the journey and descent?”

Senior Tech Viir Odden replied, “Only my heart. And Trooper Donnar’s hand is healing quite well. He should be healed fully in about a day or two.”

Marius chuckled, “He should have known better than to hit the side of the Demolisher even if it was a drunken bet. At least it was just a fracture.”

The two men looked up as the Mech Lance passed by. “Viir, I have some ideas to help our Mech jocks with their equipment, down the line. But in the meantime, reach out to the techs in the other units we’re basing with and set up supply lines, as well as communication protocols.”

Viir nodded, saluted, and ran off, screaming at some of his techs to be careful with the equipment. Marius chuckled, shook his head and moved briskly off towards the Dropship that would get his command to where they would be for the foreseeable future.

OK people this is your OpOrd.

Intel has strangers loading supplies into some caves northeast of Mauna Kea. Transport ships will pick up you units.

Each command will pick two (2) squads of battle armor and one (1) platoon of infantry. The infantry platoon will be split into squads.
You will also pick what they are using for transport. The transport will be stationed out side the entrance.

Take care with what you pick as these units will not be available for the next mission.

the maps will be Iron Mountain from the Solaris 7 set and will be picked at random.

After settling in and getting his team set up, and running, Marius takes a deep breath and looks down at his first Operational Orders. “Two squads of armor and one infantry platoon, hmmm. I think that as punishment Trooper Donnar’s squad is gonna be sent in, along with squad two. They both need to learn how to play as a team. As for the infantry platoon, that’s easy. In the mountain caves we need closer range weapons, so that goes to the 151st. Srms can be deadly in the tunnels of the mountains. Just got to have the armor lead the infantry. The Maxim, Hunter’s den, should be able to get them all there.”

He then leans back in his chair, and takes a deep breath. “Going to have to keep everyone alert. This can be dangerous territory. Now, I wonder who we’re sharing this base with.”

To Colonel Euron Greyjoy
Commander Camp Haken


This is to inform you that your base is being assigned additional units.
The remains of the DCMS company Arkad Harid will be guesting with you, at least temporarily, while they refit and recover from recent actions. Attached please find records of the units history and organization. Also find the incident reports, non-judicial punishment and disposition of a former member of the unit with a civilian.

The new tenant will be a recently arrived Chiji no Chian Butai unit. Winters Dream, a newly established  mercenary company, formerly of the Free Rasalhague Republic. The company is commanded by Kapten Marius Bjornsen. Attached please find records, history, ratings and organization of the unit via the MRCB.

Please assist as you are able in these units acclimation.

To accommodate these changes you will have access to a larger budget and inventory to sustain your base provisions, logistics, training and combat requirements. Several additional personnel have been assigned to assist, including former DCA Chief Petty Officer Beryl Cooper, base services and support. Please find their service records, and CV's attached. Realizing that these personnel may not meet all of your necessities, a supplementary payroll has been included so that you may acquire new workers as needed.

The Governor has confidence that the responsibilities of the combat readiness of Camp Haken and its personnel, as well as the building of strong relationships with the neighboring communities, may be left in your capable hands.

The Arkab Harib will supply 2 Squads of Battle Armor, and a platoon of combat engineers to investigate these caves. These troops are highly motivated, highly dedicated, eager to be "outside the wire".

While looking out the window of his new office, Marius chuckled softly to himself. Out of the corner of his eye he spotted the Maxim, Hunter’s Den, being loaded. His decision on the paint scheme for the unit would certainly attract attention. Bright white with a dusting of sky blue over top of the white will definitely get noticed.

“I wonder what the unit motto should be. Maybe a contest among the troops would be a good way to figure it out. May help with morale too.”

A second voice responded to Marius’s musings. “Whatever gets us going and out of this funk will be helpful.” Standing just inside the door was the man only known as Soul Burn, the head of the special operations team that became a hidden part of the Winter’s Dream. “Here is the readiness report for the SOC. We’re also putting together a report on the other units here, regarding defensive capabilities.”

Marius nodded, finally getting used to Soul Burn’s ability to appear when least expected, as if a ghost. “Try to get me a diagram of the defenses as well. I’ll get with their engineers to bolster them.”

Euron's eye quirks at the incident report regarding the former member of Arkab Harid and he makes a point to ask to find out what happened there.
 
Upon hearing that he's receiving an expanded budget and additional resources, he informs Harald and Julia to prepare to receive the new personnel and to put them to work as quickly as possible.

Finally, after seeing the new tenants and their white and blue painted machines (which could easily get confused for WoBblies as they also like to paint their stuff white), he decides he's going to have to talk to his men to make sure they don't accidentally shoot their new allies on the battlefield.


Anthony:  The Ironborn will be bringing the 2 squads of IS Basic BA aboard Badger Bravo and Goblin Delta with Infantry platoon Delta.

BA Laser or MG?
the BA and Bandit or BA and Maxim?
if BA in Bandit will need ride for engineers, if Maxim all fit into one vehicle. 3rd squad BA will be Base CQ.

In his office Precentor Wilkes looks over reports from the ComGuard and local news. He does not like what he is reading. He next looks over the layout of the HPG grounds and starts working up plans to reinforce the compound and its defenses. He will need to get all ComStar personal back to the compound so that he can keep them safe. All ComGuard personal will now be on yellow alert. Those personal that have to be outside the compound will now have a security detail with them. The engineering Level II will work on improving the checkpoints to the compound and other defensive measures. Wilkes also notices that the Arkab unit is looking for personal to fill in for the losses they just suffered. He also takes note of the new Merc unit on world. He makes a mental note to have his ROM officers keep tabs on the bounty hunters that are on world. The ISF one will be a problem.

OOC: I created a website for my Merc Unit, Winter's Dream. Right now it's in it's infancy, but Eventually, i plan on putting up various things like pictures of specific units, or limited histories of each mission. I also may put up stories as well.

At Buki Industries Mino Nakagona and Arkady Borsakov are in conference about what has been going on in the DC and on world.
“We will need to step up security around here” Mino looks at Arkady “With all the troubles that have been going on someone will be looking to make trouble for us.”
“I think that we may need to get some more help. I just am not sure that the governor will be so understanding this time.”
“I know she will not let us bring in heavy units and that is not what I am talking about. We have a strong security force. What I am thinking of is better tracking of personal. We need to do stronger checks on our people.”
“OK so how are we going to do that? We ran checks on all personal when they got hired.”
“I will ask the governor to have her people run checks on the people we have. I will also have security post more guards around the facility. We will need to bring in some extra security personal, but that will not be such a peoblem with the governor.”
“OK but to get they personal you are thinking of it will take sometime to get them out this way.”
“I know. I figure about two months because of what is happing back home and that above will not shell out the money to fast track the extra personal.”

Marius looked around his office, turned on his computer and finished sending the emails he had been working on previously. The first was to the unit quartermaster, the second to his recruitment officer, and the Third requesting a meeting with the commanders of the two other units based in their current encampment.

Once finished, Marius shut down his computer again, and stood, looking out his window. He prayed for the safe return of the soldiers in the Special Operations Group he sent out on the recon mission and wished them success. Looking down on the soldiers in the weapons range, he shook his head at seeing Trooper Donnar there, working himself to the bone as atonement for getting his Kobold power armor suit shot to pieces during the last mission. Luckily the trooper was using a rifle and not the remains of his suit.

At Aegis Arms headquarters the upper management is looking for ways to improve security at the different sites the company is in charge of. With plant one now in the hands of raiders they will need to work on new security measures at all the other sites.





Nicolas Corado reads over a group of reports and news articles and shakes his head. He presses the button to the intercom "Get my car ready.”
"Yes Mr. Corado.”
He writes out the message that will be sent to all his Captains that they are to add a security unit to all the ships. With what is going on he knows that small pirate bands will try to take advantage. He has too much invested in people, ships and cargo to let some small time thug take what is his.
