Breakout planning post

[srwuga_mods]

Because something this crazy-awesome needs to be coordinated to achieve maximum craziness.  And awesomeness.

The Adventus prison is located on an island whose location will be conveniently provided to us by the DC, enabling the White Chalice to recover the pilots that had been kidnapped previously.  The base itself is a veritable Alcatraz, with a large garrison of both Federation and and Adventus machines ready to defend it, as well as considerable conventional forces as well.

Thankfully, with Phillip and Shotarou there's a means for the prisoners and free people to communicate with each other and a joint breakout/rescue attempt can be coordinated, and this is what this post is here for.  People can use this post to discuss OOC how they would like for this to play out and what they would like to see.  Do keep in mind this is meant to be a group effort, with everyone working together, but we'd rather have as many people be awesome as possible.

The thread will end with everyone reuniting, just as Jeremy and RGNK arrive onto the scene, and thus the stage will be set for the mission LIGHT AND SOUND.

As has already been mentioned in Werter's post, Kei'll be digging underground to the prison to bring on-foot people into the prison so they can help with the breakout.

EDIT: Forgot to mention... we should finally dust off Neo Getter Robo again!

Prometheus is trying to get oil as we speak, so he can make himself slippery and squeeze through the bars. After that he can free some other people (I know that Eri at least has an escape plan too) and then run around the base on his own, causing havoc.

With Hayana the Bitch Haro at the base, Veda knows where she is, and via CB, can provide location. But I think that's all on that, unless someone can fathom why CB would do a rescue operation and not an Intervention

Someone inside will drop a blank CD face up so Ren can do Mirror World things.

Huh...

Haruka is best placed in an area with plenty of explosions, gunfire, and general scary things. She will either be completely useless, or kill one Adventus person.

Roads just needs to get firearms; then he can go to town on people. The benefits of a motion-capture suit in action! For CR purposes, he should probably give Kazuki a crash course in the mysteries of the assault rifle.

Charles, being awesome, can supply prodigious amounts of firepower to everyone being rescued. IS is rather sketchy on the details, but she either has capacity for 20 weapons, or capacity for 20 kinds of weapons, with as many copies of individual kinds as she wants.

This means Charles has either 12 "free" spots for extra guns just to hand out to people, or 15 spots for different kinds of weapons, with a practically unlimited arsenal to hand out to people. Regardless, she can hand out anti-tank rifles and automatic shotguns like they're candy.

Sayla's not really an on-foot fighter. It's probably best that she ends up helping out Haman, though.

As you all know, Dita's been planning this strike for ages. Details are in her post but here's the gist: 3 insertion teams at once, blow holes through it. Double and COFFRET in at least two to help guide the units in. Once out, we'll be firing flares.

That's when the main attack force swoops in. Super Vandread will be dealing with any major threats that involve turning people's power against him. Adventus didn't plan for the goddamn Pexis.

As was mentioned, Philip and Shoutaro are passing information (btw, if you have information to pass back to the ship, please post to Philip's post so he can let Shoutaro know), although Shoutaro's the only one who can initiate the contact.

I am interested in more W-foreshadowing happening, too, if possible.

Before the mission on Saturday, Shinji should make his big debut in spectacular style: appearing out of a reflective helmet that's shipped into Ren's cell! He'll make a pose of some kind, then go to retrieve the latter's deck.

Afterward, Dragreder should totally assist Darkwing in chaos and mayhem with Yoshika-one of the many captives-escaping along with the others sometime before the enemy makes their arrival. (Yoshika should be rescued by the 501st, with one of the girls having retrieved her Striker Unit before they go to assist with Search and Rescue.)

Fate is going to be trying to get Bardiche back so she can actually put power into and/or cast her offensive spells. She will also be sticking with the group. She doesn't want to leave anyone behind unless back-up comes or they force her.

Tatsu will be sticking close to Dita in case she needs her for the Red Crab or the Super Vandread. She will be fighting in her usual crazed and almost feral style of attacking but will be especially careful in using her Breath Weapon out of fear of hurting her allies and the captives.

Seiren is working on the strike team to cause a good distraction so that the rescue team can get in and out with as little noticing them as possible. She will be using the Ellen Sonic to hit large mobs of mooks to cut down their numbers and aid her in drawing the attention away from the rescue team.

Azrad can't summon Aeon anymore (the last two are needed for his finale), so he should be helping anyone on foot, lending Scimitars and whatnot.

Nanoha gets her usual beamspam turret role, only she'll likely activate Excelion Mode for the first time here because she has to be serious to save Fate. She can go either on foot or against any mecha, but I'd prefer the former so she gets to reunite with her waifu.

Yuunagi is actually pretty useful for this mission, given that Straybird has absolute stealth and teleportation (why I've never sent him against the Caliban is really bugging Aero, I know). He can scout or make a really good distraction if needed.

Laura's best paired up with Charles. She has more close to middle range weapons with the Schwarzer Regen and can provide support for the Rafale Revive II Custom.

EDIT: There's something else I was supposed to mention...but I forgot what it was while I was typing this. All the above suggestions should be fine though.

Alexei and PRIME are currently collaborating with the League of Ruling Corporations to summon the help of anyone in the Collared stable. Hopefully, the end result of this will be Ostdarva, Lillium Wolcott, Wynne D. Fanchion, and Roadie all arriving in their NEXT units. The plan, then, is to lead a small squadron to a weak wall in the Adventus base, then chain-fire Assault Armor until it breaks, allowing the prisoners to get out.

Failing that, Gundam Maxter and Chibodee could probably do the same thing on his own.

[wimpy-cure-ever.livejournal.com]

Let's see here. Let's get my guys and what they're gonna do out here.

Ryouma: As you see up there, Ryouma's gonna end up dragging the Metal Wolf into orbit with Neo Getter-2 and launching him at the base. He'll follow suit and join Kei in digging around underground.

Nanohana: For the moment, she'll be joining those on foot, intending on reuniting with Eri. At which Hana will do something ridiculous when they reunite that will force Eri to slap her.

Christine: Since the "Hanging Gardens" will be fixed by that time, she'll be bringing that out to help attack with the various mecha.

Kou and Roux... will probably do the same, honestly.

ETA: As for Gen, once he gets back Fourze Driver, I might just go ahead and have him introduce Elec States for this!

[judau-ashta.livejournal.com]

Judau...is useless. Yeah, he didn't get captured with a mobile suit, and is still getting used to Newtype powers. At best, he can play distraction, and odds are that will end with bruises/more bruises. Kinda need help here.

So does the "joint breakout/rescue attempt" mean the part of Dita's plan involving three infiltration teams can go ahead? I just want to make sure Laura's got a part to play.

If so, do we have people signed up for all three teams?
