@NarcissisticPotato@FortunesFaded@Wick@DeadDrop@FortunesFaded@Poi@Joker892@Polaris NorthJain had tried to let Maisy handle the situation of executing her orders and was happy when she’d sent out April and Rafe as she had insisted and the two had accomplished the goal quicker than she expected they might even bringing back a bear cub.
She had woke before dawn as was her custom and habit then prepared for the day’s duties though she’d much rather be out riding to her next navigation point instead of having to put her remaining people to a test which she had made ready to ruin her reputation by turning around and calling Red Rock. The idea that she would quit this before her own and their incompetence got any more of them killed was chilling to Jain as she had never failed to complete any assignment. It had been her and a Scouting Partner before and Mr. Raintree always matched teams better than any Trooper because he had personally trained everyone of them. Jain had Troopers who had never worked with one another, been trained by different men and women and commanded in various ways not her own.
She was angry with herself for thinking her people would make her quit her assignment as she climbed aboard her mount and rode the perimeter of the camp at the falls checking on the guards and watching the Troop as they got ready for the day’s assignment. The bows of the satsuma were installed to shafts of varying lengths between 4 to 8 feet, clubs set aside and hammers, bola, and lariat; it was pleasing to see how relaxed her people were and still doing a smart job.
Once everything was ready she rode to halt before her Troopers and looked them over before she began a speech many had heard in one form or another by their instructors and former commanders.
Okay everyone today we will be performing a sweep of Paradise Valley across the river and a search for critical goods house by house and while I’m sure you’ve all heard the rules 100 times before I am forced by events and doubts to repeat them for my own well being.
1st Never move in groups of less than 3 in or near buildings.
2nd Always keep at least one set of eyes on your escape route while pinning and dispatching a Risen
3rd Regroup if possible with another team after Removing a Risen or group of Risen in the focused room or area outside of a building.
4th If you lose either club or satsuma retreat back to the established resupply point as a group; resupply and then return to the sweep.
5th Clear blind corners with your signal mirrors before stepping around them
6th “And this one I cannot stress strongly enough!” Never move close to a Risen no matter how helpless they may appear outside of your group
7th Always clear a building bottom up in 2 teams and leave 1 team to hold the bottom before clearing the top.
8th Never use a weapon too big for the fighting space retreat and resupply then return
I know number 6 and number 1 are the same just worded differently but that should stress how important it is to never fight alone she continued on detailing all 21 points of the First Order called such because it was the first outlined strategy instituted by Chief Comber and the First Orders new recruits heard in practical training.
To anyone looking at her it would seem Jain was angry when she finished but at whom not clear.
She drilled them across a bridge to the entrance of the subdivision then she assigned Maisy to the reaction force made of the specialists Amy, Lyra and Doc James whose primary job was resupply of the left and right flank sweeper teams and act as a support reserve to either should they find a nest.
Hector was assigned to the Left flank command and April the Right flank.
