>>5763594Shade is there to greet you at what’s left of the entrance to the facility when you and your two engineer companies arrive. Up close, it’s clear that your bombardment had tremendous effect. There’s breaches all through the perimeter wall, and the remains of droids are littered around craters in the ground.
“Fabian’s waiting. Follow me.”
You follow him, with Beck and Goto. In the very centre of the base is a squat dome, with a lot of blaster marks and scrapped droids around it. Leading you around it, to the rear of the facility, you go down a long ramp, which leads to a wide elevator in the centre. Pressing some buttons, Shade takes you and your men down, and after about a minute you arrive at another open space at the bottom, where Fabian is waiting in front of 3 large vault doors. You suspect you’re deep enough that this place could survive an orbital bombardment, if it came to that. Not that it helped the defenders much. Around you are the signs of a violent assault, scrapped turrets and blaster residue all around. You even notice some droidekas lying in pieces around the vault doors.
The four of you walk over to Fabian. To your left, you can see Fisher conversing with some of his officers. Fabian nods at you when he sees your arrival.
“Sulla. You’re here. Well, here’s the vaults. We get all three open, take what’s inside, then get out of here. Away from this war. That’s the plan. Just need to get them open."
>Copy that, sir. Beck, Goto. What do you think?They approach the closest vault door, a giant circular thing standing before you. Elaborately designed, with interlocking gears all around it, even you can tell that breaking in will be no easy feat. But if anyone can do it, it’ll be your engineers. You wait for them to give their assessment.
Goto’s the first to speak. “It’s going to be one hell of a job.”
Beck whistles in agreement. “Don’t think I’ve seen something like it before.”
>Can you do it?Goto shrugs. “Sure we can. But if we mess up, it’s going to take a lot longer to have another go, depending on the damage. We’ll need to be precise, and extremely careful if we want this open first go.”
>And there might be more droid reinforcements coming.Goto takes a deep breath. “We’ll do our best.”
He and Beck then walk to the waiting engineer companies and begin giving our orders. Some return up the elevator to get their equipment while others begin measuring the vault doors, determining the best place to begin their work.
