SNIP

The Captain glanced at the CNS. A little green on a combat vessel but he was doing the right thing. Some people felt the need to fill a void but sometimes listening was the best way to do that. Assess the situation based on the mood, whats being said, the intanglibles and then speak.

Parker CO

“Captain we can put out a tachyon wave, it will act almost like an active sonar ping in the water. The problem is that whatever is out there will know we know that something is afoot and might make them spring their trap before we are ready,”

Kolar

“Thank you XO.” He said referring to the launch of the fighters.

“Tachyon?” He pondered. “Lets give it a try.”

He looked over at the new CSO and the Ops officer. “Make it so.”

Parker CO

Corbin knew this meant he needed to send the order to Engineering as well.

He sent the order so that when Science reconfigured the Deflector dish for the tachyon blast Engineering could take the appropriate measures.

Dallas (Ops)

The tachyon wave put out showed that there were two vessels cloaked. When the wave hit them, they started to retreat in the direction of New Xindus.

GM

OOC: I see that the fighters are ready. Are we sending them out?

GM

OOC: The idea was to launch them for recon or against smaller targets that needed to be destroyed. If these ships your talking about need to go to warp to reach New Xindus then no we do not launch as they it is more logical to use them in close combat with hit and run tactics. So let me ask that on the Bridge.

Sidney

OOC: CSO we need you here to give the report of the results of the Tachyon blast!
IC:

“Science Report.” The Captain called out.

Parker CO

Solit looked at the scan results, and shook his head. “The tachyon sweep revealed two cloaked Xindi vessels. However, they are in retreat in the direction of their home world. Previous encounters with the Xindi have shown that this is typically a diversion tactic so that pursuing ships break off, after which the Xindi go to their true destination. The risk of pursuit is that we may still pursue them to New Xindus, which would prove diplomatically problematic.”

  • Lt. Cmdr. Idari Solit, CSO

“Cloaking device for the Xindi, that’s new. But the Suliban, Romulans, Klingons and whomever else might be spreading the wealth.” He looked over the data.

“Following them, isn’t something I’m worried about diplomatically. They’re the ones that closed with us without announcing themselves, spies can’t be offended that we didn’t let them get away with it. The down side is they could be leading us into the trap we were trying to avoid.”

Kolar

“Options?” The Captain asked. “How about we launch the recon team on the Air Wing. Certainly its dangerous for them but it would spring any trap in front of us.”

The Captain expected either agreement or a better solution. Both his XO and new CSO had given him very good feedback to work from. He now awaited his CIO, COS to add something.

Parker CO

However instead of either one of those speaking first it was the new Ops officer who ranking wise was not a Executive Team member. However Corbin had been rich his whole life and as such there was never a back of the line mentality to him. He was not snobbish but rather accustomed to privilege.

“Sir I think that is the soundest approach as it avoids the whole ship being exposed and lets face it. If a fighter is destroyed it can be explained and diplomatically managed. A flagship attacked is another thing.” He said turning to the Captain.

Dallas Ops

Idari withheld a smirk, as the utilitarian approach was somewhat befitting of a large combat vessel.

He couldn’t help but say out loud, “I’m sure the pilot of said craft would not appreciate such an assessment.”

  • Lt. Cmdr. Idari, CSO

“You obviously do not know pilots Lt. Cmd.” Dallas answered back. “They are probably below right now hoping for this exact order.”

The truth was that Dallas didn’t know pilots, much less Marine pilots that well either. However he had seen the ones that had transferred aboard and he was almost sure he was right. At the minimum he was going to have the big old Olinski to hide in.

Dallas Ops

“Send the order Dallas. Launch Recon. Catch up to and delay those vessels. Lets see who comes a looking for them. Use of Force is at the CAGs descretion. ” He ordered without hesitation now.

Parker CO

=^=Bridge to CIC. Launch Recon, Alert One. Delay and harass those fleeing ships. The Cap wants to know who is interested in them. Use of Force to accomplish mission is at the CAGs discrection. =^=

Dallas OPs to CIC
