Mel takes a deep breath to steady herself. No good letting anyone else see it, but aside from when she'd briefly taken charge last mission, this was the first time she'd actually had real authority, and it was intimidating as hell. But if she could pull it off...
"Okay, FT one, reinforce them at that stairwell. Assess the situation there and call if you're going to need backup. Even you even -think- you'll need backup. We can't afford to get overrun this early."
"Jake, concentrate on getting the barricades ready to go. If there's time, you could rig each one to blow just as the bugs breach it...but getting them up is the first priority. And make sure there's gaps WE can get through."
"David, you and me...we're going to make sure there's no other ways for bugs to get on the deck. If anyone calls for help, we're the first responders though."
She nods at Zane then. "If anyone's unclear, now's the time. Otherwise let's get going!"
Assuming no questions, Mel sets out, studying the deckplan and heading towards the nearest access point (besides the stairwell). She asks David to check the plans too, in case she misses something.
