Taking cover in a now roofless bunker, the two held off a wave of Strigiforme soldiers trying to make a break for the gate not a kilometer away, it made sense seeing as they were the only thing standing between them.
The last combatant falling over in death, they made the same push, although theirs' didn't include two super soldiers holed up in cover. As they made it to the gate, Hexalan was picked off by a sniper, who was probably also Strigiforme. Taking a few potshots, Amacus took up cover behind a crate that had been blown in after the bombing run that made the bunker so much less protective.

I will play Enforcer until he dies/is destroyed (if ever) before switching over to Jahgrin as a late-comer. Also, Cats, WE NEED A MAP.

I am also completely ignoring everything Carbon does.
BIC:

Enforcer cruiser the outer circle, making a full rotation, all sensor systems active as he sped along the ground in his tank-mode. Despite the shield being down in places, the city was still deceptively quiet. They hadn't reached the outer border yet. He patrolled this route specifically since he knew that as long as he kept moving, the city wouldn't bother him at all.

He slowed down as his sensor, gravimetric, picked up a contact approaching from the north. He engaged the railgun and raised his cruising altitude before flying toward it.

Oh, yeah, Forgot about map. Need to do. Will do. I'd go ahead and put everyone that's going into the city into the city now. And yeah, ignore shadowcat. Like most usually do.

I have very little patience for those that choose to be my peers. Few that try that small patience are met with kindness. Fewer still are those that threaten their wrath and earn more of what precious little kindness I have.

Enforcer raced through the street, heading directly for the sensor contact until he was almost on top of it. But he didn't find anything on visual scanners. He deployed into the spider and began scanning the immediate area using every sensor he had. Visual had nothing. Neither did Infrared, X-ray, gamma, radio, ultraviolet, or microwave. He then flipped through alternative channels. Tachyon sensing obtained a reading, but very vague and all over the place. He realized that, whatever the contact was, it was using a stealth field generator.

He crawled ontop of one of the buildings and began conducting a full sweep using Tachyon and Gravimetric sensing, carefully combing over each building as he went. He found a reading; Tachyon activity increase near the building across from him. He trained the railgun and scanned for a target, attempting to pinpoint the signal's location.

"There is a big spider bot on that building....."

He thinked when just observed the colossal robot prepare a big weapon. And that weapon was aimed at his building. He took a two small MFEs [Multi-Function Explosive] and put the setting to Sensor Scrambling EMP and other as a norma frag grenade. That would turn off his stealth system,but hope was that it could scramble the sensors around to give him time to escape the building using the most basic function [Heat signature stealth] while the frag grenade serve as a distraction as well.
Then,he activated the scrambler,letting it roll on the floor and then as the scrambler exploded,he trowed the frag grenade to another direction.

Enforcer restarted the EM sensor functions as the scrambler detonated, knocking them out but leaving the alternative channels intact. But the Tachyon and Gravimetric sensors picked up nothing; he would have to rely on sound and sight. He pinpointed the scrambler's detonation point and then the frag grenade's detonation point through their sound, estimated the point they were thrown from based on the explosion profiles, and began firing the railgun into the building, punching small holes in it's walls as he saturated the estimated point with tungsten slugs.

[OOC: FYI, the Rapid-Fire Railgun is basically a machine gun firing tungsten rods approximately 3 cm in diameter at 10 rounds per second. Using magnets]

"Long-range amplifier at full charge"
"Connection established to personal warp system"
"Ground area clear"

Roy prepared to be sent down to the planet below. Everything was clear: a warp range amplifier would allow him to use his short-range warp system to stealthily get down to the planet below, close to one of the gates. He would then warp over to the entrance, and start mapping and exploring the city. All while being hidden by the stealth systems in his armor.

The general of the special forces walked up to him.
"I know you won't fuck this up, Roy," he said, patting Roy on the shoulder. "Now go down there and find out what secrets and technology that city holds!"

He nodded, activated his stealth systems and warped down. The sudden change in the environment took a little time to get used to, no matter how many times you did it.
He made a quick warp to the entrance gate, readied his pistol, and started looking around.

*When the rods began to arrive,he tried to run,but was pinned down. The relentless fire was too much for him...except that he got psi-powers! He focused his energy in a way,so that he could stop or bounce some of the rods in the air,and launch them back at the robot,buying some time for his escape as he activated the stealth suite back on-line *

Oaghonyr arrived later than the other vehicles he had seen from orbit. His landing spot was still clear, which meant, that he didn't have to do a course correction. He was 1367m above the landing point, when he activated the air brake. The pod slowed down, but not fast enough. When Oaghonyr came out of the grey clouds, he activated the first set of thrusters. The pod was shaken heavily, as the four chemical thrusters burned at 100%. 400m above the landing zone, he activated the second set of thrusters, which slowed him down too much, so that the pod accelerated again after the thrusters deactivated. 100m above the landing zone, Oaghonyr detonated the pod and jumped out. The air streamed around him, whistling. 50m above the landing zone, Oaghonyr opened his HALO parachute. He hit the ground with a speed of about 10km/h. Shortly after, the pod crashed in the ground behind him.
"Landing successful, initiating phase one."
The opening in the shield in front of him was a perfect isosceles triangle. This gave him a good amount of information about the shield, which he wrote down: "The shield is an umbrella shield, with the generator in the middle. The shield is not reinforced by an generators at its ends."
Oaghonyr walked inside the shield and immediately lost contact with the orbital relay station. "The communication to the outside is suppressed," he thought. He brought his long range sensors online and saw a large heat signature on the the top of a building near him. It looked like an arachnoid robot. He was fighting something, which Oaghonyr was not able to see. So he began to venture inside the city. He was looking around carefully, as he did not want to encounter something dangerous, before he was even close to reaching his goal.
Oaghonyr decided that it was a good idea to climb one of the buildings, in order to get a better view at the city.
He reached the top of a tall building and activated his bio-sensors. He didn't see anything, that he wouldn't have suspected. A few other explorers, some plants, small creatures, some larger ones, but nothing that looked like it could wipe out the galaxy.
So he pulled out his crossbow and looked for a place, which would make it easier for him to get into the centre of the town, where he suspected some of the more advanced technology.
He was just hoping, that nobody would notice him.
Suddenly, Julo.

After what seemed to be an eternity at the door, Amacus attempted to contact the missing others. No response.
"Damn it!" Amacus began to assess the area. Nothing was immediately coming for her, that was a start. Slowly walking into the main district, the towering buildings gave an overwhelming shade. Taking it to her advantage, she crept aside the walls. Then, a noise, gunfire it seemed. Not too distant, probably only a few klicks away. Active sensors began picking up a heat signature... on the roof. Breaching the building via a window, she made way up a flight of stairs, rifle aimed forwards.

Enforcer stopped firing as the sensor contact completely disappeared. He scanned around and found nothing. He realized that, whoever he had been shooting at, it had gotten away. He'd need to find a way to disable the stealth system, permanently. If he could boost the range of his electronic warfare suite, he could do it. He hadn't even thought about using it before.

Enforcer transformed back into his tank mode and recalled the sensor data. As he was firing, another contact had passed by behind him, but it was mechanical, not organic. He had ignored it, but based on it's sensor profile, was not part of the city. He conducted a gravimetric survey and found the contact on top of one of the taller buildings. And just under it was another contact. There were at least 100 other contacts just beyond their position; he knew these to be the cities' automated defense system. He had never gotten past them.

He raised the cruising altitude and sped off towards the building, preparing his weapon and the electronic warfare suite. Perhaps he would be a bit more diplomatic this time.

The door to the roof was all that stood in Amacus' way. Turning the hydraulics in her legs to the most powerful setting, the metal dented and shattered, clattering onto the floor.
"Arms or equivalents in the air!" the soldier spouted, a headshot already lined up.
