Private Cyrill Kowaltzki

"We have something on the screen approximately 500' ahead. Asking permission to take a look at it, Sarge!?! It's just behind this ridge.", Cyrill says via the com while grabing his Hawkeye and a set of binoculars.

"On it." She readies her Morita and nods at Cyrill. "I've got your back. Let's go."

She lets Cyrill take the lead, but follows right on his heels.
 

Carl pulls the big “Twin 50’s” over to 2 o’ clock to offer Mel and Cyrill some cover if they need it. (Carl will ready an attack on anything hostile that sticks its head out over the ridge).
 

Private Cyrill Kowaltzki

Cyrill moves to the top of the ridge, ready to open fire on any bugs. When he is 100 ft. from the top he signals to Mel that they now should sneak up to the top. As stealthy as possible he moves on and when he is near the peak he starts to crawl into a position from where I can take a look on the other side (using the binoculars if necessary).
 


Mission 4. Encounter 1.

Cyrill and Mel hustle up the steep slope and near the top dive down and crawl the last few paces. Lying on the rocky outcrop Cyrill looks through his binoculars at where the contact should be. Cyrill can see a transport vehicle standing stationary in the blazing sun, the simmer from the heat creating a rippling effect to his view. The vehicle seems fine from this angle but the stationary vehicle would not have created the movement Cyrill saw earlier on the scanner. While watching Cyrill can see that the cab of the transport vehicle is lurched slightly forward, maybe the transport has become snared in something?

While the two scouts are up on the ridge, bishop notices something on the scanner. There appears to be some movement again approx 500’ at about 2 o’clock from buggy #1.

Private Cyrill Kowaltzki

"Here, take a look Lance Corporal." Cyrill hands the binoculars over to Mel.

Via Com: "Sarge, this is Kowaltzki, we've spotted a transport that seems to be stuck. I can't see any movement, I repeat: no movement. Kowaltzki over."

Cyrill readies his trusted hawkeye, just in case (ready to fire a single shot at any bug or enemy who is closer than 200 ft.).
 


"It's a transport alright," Mel mutters as she peers through the binoculars. "I don't see anything obviously wrong, but maybe engine trouble..." She then switches to comm and asks, "Hey, can someone monitor the standard distress frequencies? If a transport broke down, they'd be trying to get someone's attention, you'd think."

She pauses, then asks, "Seeing anymore movement? Doesn't look like the transport's behind the reading."
