MechWarrior: Days of the Clans

[MelissaB]

Entering her Warhammer Viper does a last second check and pilots it outside the mechbay towards the co-ordinance. She tries to reach the others on her comlink "Right guys everyone get into position."

[Zender_Solarheart]

Likely as a product of his old Clan training, Zandile wakes up promptly with the alarm, still inside his Styx's cockpit. He's learned how to get good, comfortable sleep in there, and it saves him some time in starting up his machine. His customized user-interface boots up, and an electronic female voice greets him: "Good morning, Master Sichel. How are you feeling?"
"Good morning, Hera. And I'm feeling spry, as usual."
"Roger, sir. Now initializing secondary interface systems."

His camera begins doing a test-scan, mapping out the area for him to see. Once that's done, it runs secondary diagnostics on the finer details, and cues up an old favorite from his music player, which he uploaded as a personal "rally call" of sorts. It's also a sort of tradition, in honor of his friends that the Clans robbed him of. The only one he knew was alive when he left was Jeydon, a young girl that everyone called "Jade" for short. Just as Lobred was like a brother to him, Jade was like a sister...and he can't help but wonder where she is now, if she's not already six feet under...

Duo opens comms to them "right moving into position now. everyone when we get out there watch each others backs and be vigilant" he says as the systems of his marauder flash green for go. making it move out slightly and slowly turns.

[jayjaycaps]

"Yea, yea, yea Viper, we're comin'" Jason mumbles into the comlink. It would seem Jason isn't a morning person... Or whatever time it is. Jason pilots his mech into position, surprisenly well for someone who just woke up and is still half asleep. "Let's just get this over with, I'm missing my nap here!"

[Zender_Solarheart]

Seeing a potential opportunity to smack Jason with a decent diss, Zandile speaks into the comms: "You ask the Clanners real politely, and I'm sure they'll give you a nice 'bed' to snooze in." This is partially a test of the rookie's mettle, as well, to see just how patient he really is.

Meanwhile, the Styx moves out with the other 'mechs, the red eye-like slit in its head-piece blinking a Morse code message for anyone who'd bother to notice, which says "Kill them all, let God sort them out."

[dndman997]

"a dirt bed" Duo replied

[talin]

Talin exits out of his game and boots up all systems. Without skipping a beat, he straps himself in and guides his mech forward out of the mech bay. He listens in on the comms and brings up his briefing map on the nav screen. "I assume your viper then? I'm Talin, sorry if I missed the briefing but I tangled up with some clan scouts. I'll be supplementing your lance on this mission. Expertise are guerrilla warfare, and scouting. My mech is the fastest on this base so I'll be best used for rapid response fire-fighting and harassment." As he briefs his temporary lance commander on how he is most effectively used as, he guides his mech out of the hangar and take up position to the left-rear of her mech.

[jayjaycaps]

Jason's too tired to see the diss and quite stupidly replies with "Think they will? That'd be nice..."

[dndman997]

Duo hears the new voice over the comms "so youre a running bullet magnet? he said "should be interesting"

[talin]

Ya, the kind that can easily dodge long range attacks and out maneuver heavies without even a scratch.

[Zender_Solarheart]

"Well-mannered, quick moves, roughing it in the wilds...I like this guy already." Zandile says over the comms, then decides to help the new guy catch up a bit. "Well Talin, my name's Zandile, but you can call me 'Zan,' if you'd prefer. I'm pretty much the shock trooper of this group, so don't be surprised when you see me running to the hills; I'm just getting into position." He remarks with a light chuckle.

[dndman997]

"im duo" he said introducing himself to the new people who didnt already know "now were is that dropship"

[MelissaB]

"Talin nice to have you you'll be using the tree and hilsl to your advantage as well as Zandile. Draw their fire hit their rear everything to bring them down. Everyone lets make this happen, Jason how's it looking back there? Getting a good look at my back side?" Viper laughs from her end of the com, her voice joking and light.

[jayjaycaps]

Jason finally seems to be waking up, getting back into his chipper self. "Hey, new guy! Name's Jason, I got the Rifleman. You ever need cover fire, and I got your back mate. And Viper, I'd much rather have a view of your mech's backside then your own." He finished smugly. Not his best diss, but he was tired...

[dndman997]

"leave that to me viper" Duo said with smirk joking as well "on a serious note ill be doing my best to watch everyone. stay together. Jason your with me lets see how that mech holds up along with your abilities of sniper" he said as if testing him

[talin]

"Thanks for the warm welcome, let me know if their are counter snipers giving you trouble."

[dndman997]

"if anything i could lock onto you when you spot one and you can run behind it and i can shoot it" duo said knowing that wasnt the best idea

[talin]

"Um... lets save that tactic for something with an EMC device, otherwise let's keep the not-so-friendly fire to a minimum"

[dndman997]

Duo snickers over the coms moving towards the drop ship

[Zender_Solarheart]

"Talin's with me, eh? No arguments here." Zandile replies to Viper's grouping suggestion, then can't help but chuckle again when Jason tries to counter her little diss...the key word being "tries." "Whatever you're into, Jason." He remarks, poking a bit more fun at the rookie.
