10 > LittleDuck

Hey there hotshot. Look, I won't beat around the topiary: the Sentients are massing in the Veil. Zero doubt it's the tickle before the slap. Invasion, mate. I been set up with a relay. Don't ask me how. You've been recruited. Tell you why when you get here. And if you got anythin' you been meanin' to say to someone, maybe say it now.

Briefing

20 > LittleDuck

Welcome to the flotilla, Hotshot. Got a name for ya: Erra. Remember it. One of the primary Sentient intelligences from the Old War. Right now waves of his 'Murex' ships are massin' in the Veil. From there, those Murex launch swarms of info-gatherin' Condrix dropships: recon data for the main event. That's why you're here, mate. Fighting off a Sentient invasion is precisely what you were built for. We don't know how to kill one of those big bastards, but me and my network reckon we can give it a muckin' lobotomy. Gonna require a little coordination to work, real hand-in-glove, yeah? Ground teams to hit the Condrix and Railjack teams to mess up the Murex. OpLinks tie the whole lot together. So, buy and equip an OpLink. Then take your pick, mate: upstairs or down?

DialogPlan

30 > LittleDuck

It's a two-prong attack. Ground team hits the Condrix and swipes their recon data before it beams back to the Murex. We take that friendly data and use it as a Trojan horse for toxic data - think of it as a Kill Code. The Railjack team boards the Murex and broadcasts those Kill Codes right into the Murex's noggin', muckin' up its thinker and making it wanna run home to Daddy. Threat neutralized. Clear as mud? Get to it.

DialogWhy

40 > LittleDuck

I deal with all sorts: low-breeds and the high-born. Everyone wants somethin' they're not s'posed to have. But these days it's a buyer's market. And what's sellin' is stuff that'd get a girl buried. Sentient stuff. And it's been comin' in by the wagonload. My crowd had these Murex rumbled months ago. Back then old mate Teshin wasn't havin' it. Tried warnin' him, but... you know the type. But now? Oh, NOW it's all "tell me all that you know" and "your expertise is required" and "I'm a hoity-toity sod with a hat like a designer bedpan." Shoulda kept me trap shut. I'm no general. But, here we are and I know what I know. So you listen to what I have to say and we'll all be home in time for tea. Yeah… no worries.

GroundStart

160 > LittleDuck

Need you to skim Condrix recon data, so we can convert 'em to Kill Codes and pass 'em to Railjack crews upstairs. Hop to it.

170 > LittleDuck

Condrix. Find 'em, pacify 'em, rip their signal. As many as you can. Give the crews upstairs more to cause trouble with.

180 > LittleDuck

Neutralize Condrix dropships, rip their signal.

190 > LittleDuck

Sabotage teams upstairs need as many Condrix signals as you can pirate. Get to it.

200 > LittleDuck

Using the pirated Condrix recon-data, that you're about to provide, Railjack crews can give the Murex a migraine. Go.

210 > LittleDuck

The Condrix are gathering recon data. You're gonna capture some and the kids upstairs are gonna use it to send back some bad, bad data.

GroundNextCondrix

230 > LittleDuck

Here we go. Impact site marked.

240 > LittleDuck

Right. Got one incoming. Marked.

Condrix impact in your neighborhood. Hit it.

270 > LittleDuck

Heads up. Condrix broke atmo.

280 > LittleDuck

New one. Marking ground zero.

290 > LittleDuck

310 > LittleDuck

Right. Deal with these muckers then make off with the signal.

320 > LittleDuck

Murex sabotage team on standby. Waiting for your signal.

330 > LittleDuck

Railjack's bein' buzzed heavy. Murex sabotage team ready when you are. Make it quick.

340 > LittleDuck

And this is just from one Murex. How many of them are there?

350 > LittleDuck

That thing's gotta go.

360 > LittleDuck

Hit it.

370 > LittleDuck

This is for impactin' my profit margin, ya bug-faced muckers.

380 > LittleDuck

Take out that Condrix.

390 > LittleDuck

There it is. Clear the zone.

GroundCondrixVuln

400 > LittleDuck

She's vulnerable! Let's wrap this up.

420 > LittleDuck

Alright, now hit it with everything you got.

430 > LittleDuck

Hit it while the hitting's good.

440 > LittleDuck

You got it on the ropes. Let's wrap this up.

450 > LittleDuck

Now's your chance. Clean its muckin' clock.

460 > LittleDuck

Condrix is vulnerable. Cut loose on it.

470 > LittleDuck

Now. Shoot the Condrix now!

GroundPlantBeacon

480 > LittleDuck

Right. Now patch in your OpLink.

530 > LittleDuck

Railjack on standby. OpLink when ready.

540 > LittleDuck

GroundDefendBeacon

560 > LittleDuck

... and keep an eye out for Grin... never mind.

570 > LittleDuck

Keep Sargas' goons away from that OpLink!

580 > LittleDuck

Grineer. Sargas! We. Are. Trying. To. HELP. YOU. Pillock.

590 > LittleDuck

And cue the Grineer clown car.

600 > LittleDuck

Grineer. Keep that OpLink intact. Upstairs can't do squat without that signal.

610 > LittleDuck

3,2,1, Grineer. Cover the OpLink.

620 > LittleDuck

Railjack has our tightbeam. Uploading Kill Codes. Keep those Tubers off that OpLink.

630 > LittleDuck

Grineer!

640 > LittleDuck

Incoming Grineer.

650 > LittleDuck

Sargas' boys are back.

660 > LittleDuck

Sargas is cuttin' his own throat, gettin' in our way like this. The bugs want the Grineer dead as much as they do us.

GroundBeaconDestroy

670 > LittleDuck

That crud-divin' sack-a-muck nailed the OpLink. Sit tight, let's see if we got another.

680 > LittleDuck

700 > LittleDuck

740 > LittleDuck

Tightbeam complete, upstairs is in receipt.

750 > LittleDuck

OpLink done. Eat it, Sargas.

760 > LittleDuck

Signal is five-by-five on their end. Clear out. Got another site on scope.

770 > LittleDuck

Upstairs has the signal. Should help choke off that Murex.

780 > LittleDuck

That's a wrap on this bugbomb. Upstairs sends thanks.

790 > LittleDuck

Done. Upstairs has the goods and we're a vapor trail.

GroundExtract

800 > LittleDuck

So, got another one in ya?

810 > LittleDuck

I got another on scope if you're up for it.

820 > LittleDuck

So, are we stayin' or goin'?

830 > LittleDuck

Upstairs can never have too much data. We can keep making codes if you got it in you.

840 > LittleDuck

The sabotage team can use whatever we provide. Whaddya say? Hit another one?

850 > LittleDuck

It's a nice day. What say we whack another one?
