The dropship suddenly started to break and the breaking thrusters came to life with a subtle hiss. Suddenly a metallic "clonk" could be heard and the dropship shook slightly as it came to rest on the WY-109. Some more metallic sounds could be heard as the umbilical attached itself. "Ok we hare hooke...

The section marched up the ramp in single column, equipment and weapons slammed against eachother and part from the boots against the metal ramp that was all that could be heard. Everyone thought about the mission at hand, in their own mind, focusing. The last boot had merely left the ramp before it...

Sulaco Denebola System Messhall Mission Timer: 00:16:52 http://uscm.03b2.com/adventures/mission1/messhall.jpg The messhall of the USS Costaguana was made of stainless steel and white plastics. It gave a clinical impression and it could easily have passed as a medical station for the unwary. The air ...

The Lieutenant rose from his pod slowly and looked groggedly around for a few seconds. He looked pale and a little thin, compared to the well built frames of the other marines he looked outright scrawny.

After a few seconds Priests british accented voice was heard through the intercom: "We have reached the Denebola system and its quite a view from up here" Priest paused for a few seconds "I have a ship on long range scanner and it has been identified as the WY-109. I expect to have visual on the shi...

I expect there to be no more than three hi-jackers at most" The Lieutenant said obviously trying a little ...

Minuteman hesitates for a moment before answering: "They are considered pirates and as such they do not fall under the protection of ICC law. Weapons free"

Lt. Minuteman, clearly irritated at being cut off by the Advisor, cleared his throat. He took a slight pause before answering the rather obvious question: "Yes, private , we are short. I'm not pleased with that either" The Lt. snapped "Any more relevant , questions?" The Lieutenant said giving Magnu...
