Very noble, and very well. We'll call it an even 25 people needed to guard them, and take them back to the ship.One thing remains, Marcus- the Ziggurat. The temple must be stormed and the leadership destroyed. You know the way but hostilities could start at any moment- what is the approach plan?

Xeth was thinking about digging earlier, but the galacier is just too damn big. Even if you were right on top of something it could take hours to get through this ice to it, and that's the best case scenario.
Ok, atop the peak, now you look at the glacier as a whole, some of the curves and hills look less like hills and more like... well... lumps.
Do we have a probe that could attempt to go under the glacier?
Nope, can't see a darn thing. Hard to even notice the rise from the ground.
Your Intuition is pretty sure there is something to be found. But with such piss-poor visibility, you could walk right past a hangar bay and not notice it, and with so much to search...
But Vera has finally gotten a Force roll to help. You sense life, somewhere nearby.
No time for you Charaeus folk to dally, I am afraid. You are closing upon your target, the Ziggurat.
Here is the situation- asusming you guys can still post regularly enough! You have yourselves, Vilpa, Captain Kiro and 175 commandos (skill 8, the finest the Alzarians have). They are variously equipped with small arms and some heavy gear.
The Ziggurat is made of stone, clearly ancient (and so presumably pre-dating the Cult). It is four levels high, with eight windows- actually open air, but protetcted by great stone slabs- facing each side. It is built into a clearing, almost impossible to see from aove, which also doubles as an outer defence zone and landing area. You can see both Cultists and Battle Droids patrolling that area.
Your objective is to neutralise the Cult leadership, and preferably to take the Ziggurat also.
