[Video] | [From the Junkpile]

[patokichi]

Well. You all saw it. There isn't much time to waste. We should all formulate a plan. The last thing we need is mass-chaos.

My best guess would be to secure anyone who can't fight in the temples. We'll probably need people stationed by each to keep watch over them. The rest of us can move in to corral any enemies into one area.

If anyone needs help or transport, I'll do my best to reach you.

[A beat.]

McCrane, Gunmax? I suggest we stick together. We're stronger in a group. And I... I have an idea. Grab as much oil as we have stockpiled. I'll meet you two at [Insert coordinates.], please be safe. Help anyone you can on the way.

Gunbike's fueled up; I'll bring the rest out that I have.

I got a call from someone else; I'm just gonna swing by and make sure he's in one piece, then I'll come meet you.

You got a plan, partner?

[patokichi]

Good. Take care of whatever you need to first. Just get here in one piece, please.

[A pause.]

Maybe...

And leave the fuel in Gunbike. We'll need her.

[engrishdetective]

I'll be fine!

For what? [He doesn't immediately connect to the idea, considering the circumstances.] Ugh, fine. Be vague. I'll be there soon.

Keep yourself together.

I don't have time for the full explanation yet... I'm. Still working it out.

See you soon.

There are two medics in the temple of Solus, where I'm trying to gather people up for an organised assault. That seems... pretty safe. You guys seem to have a plan, but I could still use you on board with a coordinated effort so nobody runs into anyone else. Feel free to drop people by here if you have any non-combatants.

[patokichi]

Medics? That's great to know where we can take the injured. Thank you. I'll drop any stragglers I find there.

Let me know what you have planned for attack, I figure if we can trap them in, we can have the heaviest hitters cut a fairly decent swath through it.

[brokendown]

Heavy hitters? Count me in. We'll need a way to funnel 'em in though, to a good closed area. I'll keep you posted if anyone else arrives and we settle on a plan.

[patokichi]

Great! I'll keep a close watch for your contact-

Oh. I'm Deckerd, by the way. You are?

[raceme]

I can make sure that those who can't fight get to the temples there's no faster bot than me in any faction I CAN make sure no one of them is in danger.

[patokichi]

Great! Please help anyone you can- if they are injured take them to the temple of Solus. That's where the medics are.

[raceme]

Workingonthatalready Solus's temple received I WILL remember it. Can you flylike Gunmax?

[patokichi]

Good.

And ah- not. Currently.

[mccrane]

Deckerd, I am en route.

[He took a detour to pick up some more of the stored oil.]

I'm beginning to see why staying in the Junkyard can be dangerous.

[patokichi]

Yes. I recommend we stick closer to Prima's temple from now on.

See you soon.

[action]

[mccrane]

Agreed.

[Even if it will make other things more difficult.]

[He keeps the talking to a minimum, however, concentrating on coming as quickly as he can, and pulling up a few minutes later.]

What is the plan?

Re: [action]

[patokichi]

[He greets him with a wave, and it looks like he's been setting up some kind of... base for something.]

Well. We're going to lure a bunch of those things here and... use the Max Cannon.

[sword_redemption]

Ever fought anything like these before?

[Because Drift's got to say, he's never seen these.]

[video]

[patokichi]

Well. Not in appearance, but I've taken on swarms before. These are... different, though.

[video]

[sword_redemption]

[He nods.]

Same here. These are stupid, but they seem to have some kind of plan.

[The Swarm did not have a plan, other than 'kill everything'. Which is actually not that different than, say, one of Springer's plans. But, well, it was different. ]

[video]

[patokichi]

I know what you mean.

But I have a plan, too.

I just hope mine is better... [a beat.]

You wouldn't happen to know anyone who could outrun these things, would you?

[Besides Blurr... he's a little too fast for this purpose.]

[docbot]

If anyone's injured, feel free the transport them to Solus's Temple... but don't push it. I've got blueprints for you and your partners, but I'd rather not have to risk major surgery if I don't have to.

[ There's genuine concern in his expression. He truly doesn't want to lose any of you. ]

[patokichi]

Thanks, Ratchet. We'll do our best to come back around in one piece.

[docbot]

Roger.

[ A pause, then he tentatively adds ... ]

And good luck.

[patokichi]

You too.



And don't worry.

[Plans? Strategy?

While he's got no desire to actually leave his temple right now, hope you don't mind if he just sits here and reads over any and all tactical advice you little guys decide to throw around at each other.]
