[OOM] Onderon - Royal Palace.

"Position the capital ships behind the blockade," Atton's saying into an earpiece as he checks his weapons. "Keep the Basilisks and fighters ready. When the ships jump in, we'll do hit and run attacks. Is there any way to set up an ion charge on the other side of the blockade?"

Tapping it again.

"Is the throne room locked down? Good. Keep on establishing containment fields for the Sky Ramp, and empty the ciy."

It's been a busy day.

"Good, good."

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, will do just fine an safer to fire these least at the start."

Guppy nods.

"How long do we have?"

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Not long. We don't know if by a day, they meant exactly a day or just approximately, so we'll just have to be ready to get into position if they jump out of hyperspace."

Atton taps a few buttons, examining a rather complicated display that appears.

Absently: "Oh, and remember, their armour is adaptive against energy weapons. We may not get many shots in before we have to try to get close and use swords."

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, should make sure to make 'em count."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Do we have any other projectile weapons?"

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"We can throw stuff."

[will_scarlett]

"Aye an 'onestly if we're fightin' 'em 'ere, all we can do is 'ope its the last o''em."

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy nods, staring worriedly up into the sky.

There's a ringing from Atton's earpiece. He taps it, briefly.

After a few moments of listening: "Prep the droids, get them into position at the foot of the Sky Ramp. Make sure all the security turrets in the city are active, then clear your men out of there and activate the mines. Keep your ships inside the blockade, only send fighters and Basilisks through."

Tapping it again and turning to Guppy and Will.

"Speak of the devil - the Wyrm and company have just dropped out of hyperspace. Get ready."
