Scouting Duro



[19:07] Nicci Ordo set the ship down on one of the landing platforms far away from the thickest cluster of Imperials that she could see on visual.  She had gotten authorization to clear the planetary shield by claiming to be bounty hunters seeking work with the former Grand Moff Panham.  They were allowed to land with minimal issue, and Nicci shut off the engines and looked back at Soron.

[19:16]  The Mandalorian clad in blue, battered combat armor stepped down the ramp after Nicci. He halted atop the platform and allowed his visor to glare over the central city of Duros. Eventually, his gaze met hers, "Good job on getting us on-world -- we should have enough time to map out the area. Let's split up and jetpack? You take North end of the city, I'll take South, and we rendezvous back here to compile data and construct a 3D model of the area?"

[19:18] Nicci Ordo just stared at him, having expected they would go together rather than in single numbers in hostile territory.  "Yeah I guess vod, this is your operation." she replied, securing her repeater and activating her jetpack.

[19:20]  "We should draw less attention that way. There's nothing more fierce than Mandalorian jetpacking in formation." Soron said, before barking a verbal command that activated his own quiet Z-6 and launched him into the air, "Stay on comms, vod'ika."

[19:25] Hypervelocity Canon: The hypervelocity cannon swivels around ready to fire at orbital targets.  Roll intellect over 20 to disable.  Failure will result in alarm sound.

[19:40] Nicci Ordo says through helmet comms so the troops do not hear it. "This seems to be their shield generator."

[19:42]  After scanning out the hypervelocity cannons atop the series of buildings, the Mandalorian jetpacked scrupulously towards Nicci. He landed by her, and spoke back into the comms after analyzing the device, "Elek, it appears to be so. Good that these Imps aren't expecting airborne scouting forces." he buzzed, "I only counted three of the cannons. You saw another one, or did I miss it?"

[19:43] Nicci Ordo pointed to the top of the tower, though without drawing attention to herself, and spoke into the comm unit again, "There is one on top of this tower, did you get that one?  Which three did you find?"

[19:48] Soron 's visor glanced up finally, and he committed to eye movement and blinking in order to tag the final cannon within his partial rendering of the layout. He finally glanced at the other, "What would I do without you, Ni? I think we have all of the key reconnaissance now, with specific coordinates." he said into the comm, before coolly turning away to face her, as though paying no attention to the device or the two guards that stood by.

[19:50] Nicci Ordo nodded, "Elek. Shall we get a room here and wait for the others or return to the yaim and drink ourselves stupid until the battle day arrives?" she chuckled.

[19:54]  "Heh. Let's head back to Onderon, but I'll try to abstain from drinking for a little. Indulged a little too much." Soron said, before huffing a verbal command which lifted him a few feet off the ground.

[20:02] Soron landed just by Nicci atop the platform. It was a very successful scouting mission, all in all, and he tapped the side of his helmet to share his holographic data with her, "This is what I have. Plenty to strategize off of." he said, "Though... there so /is/ such a thing as over-indulging. I care about my health, you know." he teased, tapping his chest-plate.

[20:04] Nicci Ordo just grunted as she received the data. "Bah.  Drinking is good for ya. Kad Haragir says so!" she replied, walking into the ship and preparing it to take off, again.  "You're paying for gas by the way, rich boy."

[20:07]  "Hah. Wouldn't have it any other way." Soron replied after making his way up the ramp and into the vessel. He sat in the co-pilot's chair and got straight to work, the art of flying being somewhat second nature for him, "Though.. Kad Ha'rangir says you should drink? Huh.. I ought to revise my theology." he played along with the jest.

[20:08] Nicci Ordo nodded repeatedly. "Lek vod, by drinking!" she agreed, though not in the way he meant it.  She just grinned at him, though it was kind of silly thing to do through her mirror-visored helmet.  She waited for him to set coordinates and then punched it for home!
