How disappointing. One would think the Malnosso would compile their willing volunteers instead of taking risks like this.
[Directed towards the
drafted residents (even if they refused to go)]
Though some of you have already said you will not participate, I am reminding you that your request has been "noted" and nothing more. It's still entirely possible the scientists will find a way to force you to go. This is said as a precaution; do not presume you will be allowed to stay, and prepare accordingly. There must be a reason they gave such a specific list instead of calling for volunteers to report in.
That said, if any of you wish to participate in planning, or feel the need to go into this battle with some ideas in mind, know that I will coordinate with you as best I can.
I expect we will have a few who will do what they wish out there alone, regardless of any tactics, but the majority will benefit from cooperative attacks.
For those who are unaware, we had previously fought against 300 individuals with a combat force of approximately 150. That battle lasted about two days, with complete elimination of the intruders. The disadvantages this time around are obvious; we will be the invading force with much smaller numbers and on unfamiliar terrain, thus leading to greater risks of fatigue and death.

Ted, I would like to speak with you before this reporting date.

Luc, Hugo. If you are up to some longer-term practice, I would like to speak with you.

How have you been doing with your tunneling, Simon?

I believe it is time that I add a clause to the contract.
