USH'S MATRIX GAME 2006 FOURTH ASSIGNMENT (COMBAT)- 'The Real'

"There's no reception in the Fortress," Mors reminds. "Dallas probably can't see them from the Operator's viewpoint."

"Doesn't hurt to ask, though." San replies.

"Anyway, they went in there some while back, so you're going to have to pull them out!"

"Sounds fun. Well, we're on our way there..."

"Should be exciting!"

"Exciting is one word for it..."

Ok, and so, a little while later, you are closing on the Fortress...

From what you can tell- you are still somewhat distant- there is activity atop the walls themselves.

"Activity on the walls," Ares notifies everyone for redundancy. "Should I get the guns ready?"

Finn on the phone...

I've got it...

"What's up?" Melis asks as she answers the phone.

"Yea, get ready for some action Ares. If we're going in hot, I wanna make it hellish."

"So what it is," says Finn, "is that our lads and lasses are trapped on those there walls. But they have to hold out there for Hephaestus himself to get out on top with some cure or something he is meant to have."

"I'm guessing this'll need to be a quick extraction," Melis replies. "Any ideas what this cure thing is?"

"Absolutely nothing at all. They don't even know if he has it."

"Oh, good! Tell me that they're holding the wall just fine, at least..."

"I'd get on over there pretty fast if I were you," is all he says to that.

"That bad, huh?" Melis sighs. "Step on it, Burn!" she shouts over her shoulder. "Anything else, Finn?"

I will ramp up the speed another notch...

Ok, what I need from you guys is a pick up plan. You can slowly hover by the walls, which is prrtty safe but time consuming, or try and swoop by and hope people can jump aboard. Which has inherent risks as I am sure you can guess.

Well, I'd personally vote the safer way would be better right now. We've got people who can hold the spiders off the wall once we get there and give the Philo guys a bit of breathing room to get on board.

Unless we can do something like combine the two into a sort of slow swoop, to make them jumping aboard less risky but not take as long...
