Dead Cities and Deader Men (Operative Title)

Day 22 of 30

12/12/2020

Time is blurring on me. There has been a couple more attacks. One largish one easily driven off and a small pack of somethings, almost swarmed and it if were not for the PDG and PDM along with the ElectricClaymores and just going into full all terrain mode and driving over and through them, the entire Track would have been lost. The Mains were useless, the Sides constantly chattering and the Tail Guns laying down all they could in firepower kept us alive.

The whole rolling pack ball thing was not as fast once a good portion of it was blown away. The exterior is coated in their innards. Smearing and streaking the View Panels and gumming up the cameras. Going to have to have a Suit or two deploy and cling on to clean up some of it.

Will have to be done at Full Speed of course. So manual deployment, clamp on and clamber up on top to work front to back cleaning what they are able to. Not fun, but they have had a quiet time only out in the fray three times total this recon. I have no real sympathy for them at all.

“Main Gunners to the Drivers Compartment please.”

Not too long and two of them show up. Point out that a couple of the Suits need to deploy and they both see and agree with the plan. Will have to slow to one quarter speed just long enough for them to reach the top and then back down to retrieve them. Only a few minutes both ways so will not affect the timetable appreciable. Give them fifteen minutes to get them ready and then will deploy them.

The work is completed and we pick speed back up. No loss of either of the two Suits, so that is a bonus
