>>5690397though she seems disappointed, the lady doctor does understand.
...that being said though, what did she mean by not just humans? something to poke into later, that. but not now, in the middle of a fucking war. AWOL fucking scientists doing...things, just...out of all oversight and knowledge, not even to their attendant species seems like a BIG thing to put a pin in later.
for her part though, she, clams up and makes her silent exit.
aaaaaaand five minutes later, security reports her vanishing into an ice hole with scuba gear, and a stolen radio. well shit. maybe she can lead you there? not willingly, of course, and it sounds she'll be fucking gone in not too long now.
...oh shit where is the infected sample. fuck. fuck. FUCK.
anyways, um, with that fucking minor brewing crisis in motion...HAARP! yeah, so, the technicians tell you, cool, we can do this. they rig up some parts in a few hours. make a prototype they say. they in fact, are able to summon a minor storm inside a blizzard, on the horizon, using said small prototype machine. not a big one, mind you, but, it's done. you effect the weather, adding weather control to your possible weaponry
(roll: 2)
oh shit, why is your voxx practically blowing up?
oh no. it's the standing ambassador
>CAPTAIN! THEY'RE COMING! the specters just told me that two more of their ships out patrolling the far system just reported hostile takeover. they're beelining for you!the airplanes are only useful for atmosphere fighting. the bugs just expended their main first hit nuclear volley, you are told. you have two of their dud nukes in storage but who knows if they won't detonate randomly. your defense array lasers are not repaired. not many forces can be pulled out of the colonists, since you just sent off a relief force. the Queen, you are told, just ordered B4 into full ground warfare readiness mode. not many of the pieces in play can leave the B6 battlefield. the bugs main orbital defense is now reduced to conventional missile bombardment, and underpowered spaceships.
the enemy, will have two stolen specter ships, one nuke minimum each, and whatever forces they can land. god only know what will happen if the HAARP machine falls into their hands
12 hours to ETA of attack. tick tock tick tock.
