Landing party duty really changed since Jason first traveled the stars. In the old days you had to pack everything you thought you were going to need. A huge backpack, not to mention the assortment of straps and pouches called webgear was necessary to hold all of your equipment, particularly if you expected to go a long way from the shuttle or were heading in to enemy territory. Nowadays, landing parties tended to pack light now that the transporter had been perfected. At the beginning of this century away teams usually went with the old ‘phaser-tricorder-communicator’ gear but with combadges part of a standard uniform it was now usually just ‘phaser and tricorder’. If you needed something, all you had to do was contact the ship and they would beam it down to your location.

Of course, this wasn’t entirely standard. The away team could get cut off from the ship at any time meaning that they would have to actually put some thought into what they were going to take with them. Next to the transporter room was a weapons and equipment locker for gear that most landing parties would need.

“Grab your gear,” Jason said unnecessarily as he entered the W&E locker. The XO aboard the Archer must have said that a million times and it was now permanently ingrained into his psyche.

OOC: Although I don’t predict anything more that the “phaser and tricorder” combo to be needed (with the exception of a toolkit or medkit for Gould and Royce) if any one want to get clever when it comes to equipment choices, now’s your chance.

Ch’zaolrirh rummaged around a bit in the locker beside Jason. The Andorian already had a phaser at his side, but he was looking for something simpler. He saw what the planet had done to the Dragoon and Xandra’s fighter and he didn’t like it. It left him to assume that all of their technology was potentially useless. After a few moments he found what he was looking for, a small collapsible baton. Looking it over he spoke to himself, “this will do.”

Tucking the baton away, his next concern was how they might keep in touch with the Olinski in an emergency. After thinking for a moment he turned to Kolar and Jason. “If the locals are expecting us, maybe we should take an extra comm badge or transmitter and tuck it away under one of our uniforms… as an extra life line.”

COS Ch’zaolrirh

“I can only imagine what the locals are doing to the Dragoon crew, if there are any survivors…” The Counselor stated as he rushed into the Transporter Room. “I’m going to grab an extra med kit, just in case.” Lieutenant Michaels stated upon reaching the equipment locker.

Normally, the Counselor would be seen grabbing a type 1 phaser, but under the circumstances Trevor chose the type 2.
