Sarah smiled under her helm "well we have a plan, crappy as it is" she said pulling Murphy and Eli in closer to Mee and Luna, and lower her voice so only her team could hear her "but since where here, and going against 'the old man' lets try and make to old model Spartan look bad eh" she said with a grin, though covered by her helm.
Kenneth polarized his helmet again. Though his face was less or more emotionless, anybody that could read him would say he was extremely determined. "Ready to go."
SSG Murphy
"lets try and make to old model Spartan look bad eh"
Murphy grinned and looked at the Spartan. "Easy day, Sarah." He looked around at the team, "Anybody want to watch some baseball after we're done?"
He turned to Eli, "Give you good shots? Man you're pulling trunk monkey in an urban scenario. You'll be busting balls all day, hope you're packing plenty of ammo."

"Well, I appreciate your that. Fair number of people here would have been happy to fire first, justify later. 'Course, there's about two thousand years precedent of starting a war with every possible first contact. Well, in the name of inter-species cooperation, we get to watch other people shoot stuff. Nice to know we can always reach common ground through violence against something else." Despite that, or possibly because of it, things seemed to be going considerably better than expected.
"Now just one final check, is everyone ready to begin?" Jastis asked as he briefly brought the group together again to discuss the final points of the training exercise. Everett was making final checks on his gun as he responded.
"Ready as we'll ever be sir. Locked and loaded, and ready to go."
"Ready as we'll ever be sir. Locked and loaded, and ready to go."
Murphy turned to Jastis.
"Hoorah! Let's do this."
He rolled his shoulders and adjusted his ballcap, ready to roll out.

JASTIS-015
Jastis looked up ?Begin simulation!? And just as he did, all of Blue team vanished into nothingness. The Spartan looked at his team and signaled for them to follow but keep low. Heading up a ramp, he stopped and crouched when he hit a metal fence and looked down. There were five covenant soldiers, three grunts, one jackal, and one Sangheili. One of the grunts was on a type-42 Directed Energy Support Weapon.
?The covenant weapons use plasma,? he explained to Lincoln and Kenneth. ?So watch out as they can really do a number on your shields. If I believe I am correct Lincoln, your race has plasma SMG?s and shotguns, if I read correct.?
Lincoln nodded. ?ALL of the weapons the covenant used were plasma, save very few. So they?re heavy on the shields, my shield stands a bit of it, but I don?t know about yours.?
?Alright, so first up, Everett, you go using stealth try and get around them and get a clear shot on the turret and Elite. Once I give the order, you fire and we all shoot.?

Do note, both Red and Blue team's are going at the same time.
Quite sure that they just bypass shields but ok... Kenneth mentally snarked. Getting behind some nearby cover, Kenneth took out his shotgun charging up dark energy ready for a Biotic Charge. He hid himself so that the radiating dark energy was covered as well.
I remember somewhere in the ME codex that directed energy weapons like plasma and whatnot bypass kinetic barriers. Though in game, it easily reduces shields... I could be mistaken.
"lets roll" Sarah said as she turned to head down their own ramp going down. "Eli, Luna, eyes high for snipers" as they came to the first L shaped corner she stopped her squad and poked her head low around the corner scanning a round "got 2 elites and about 4 grunts from what i can see" she said pulling back to face her squad "and no use able cover before they'll spot us"
Murphy looked down the line at Eli.
"Why not do it the easy way? Stack up, toss 'nade, then blast through. No sense getting into a firefight when you can make grease stains."

Luna acknowledged the order, she nodded and mee kept her eyes up as well. "Spartan, i have biotics that would render the infantry helpless as we would take them out. Conserve ammunition and explosives that could be used later for tougher targets." the asari said, her body glowing a soft blue.
"Spartan, i have biotics that would render the infantry helpless as we would take them out."
"how many times can you use this before needing a rest? or you run out, or what ever" Sarah asked, needing to know which resource would be better tapped "and whats the lag time between uses?"

"It all depends on what i use. To throw them all into the air, approximately 20 seconds. If one by one, by the time i throw and shoot on, another will be ready to be tossed up into the air. I can also pull them closer and i can also make a nice splat mark on the ground with them." Luna said. "Unless there's a vehicle that needs flipping over, it doesn't tire me out."
Sarah nodded "good to know" she thought for a second or two "Luna, lift all six of, hold em if you can, Murphy, Eli, Mee, we get a little extra target practice" Sarah said with a smirk " after these six, Mee i want you to cloak and make sure there's nothing above us hiding, you know how Jackles can be"
Sarah waited for them to acknowledge her rather basic plan "Luna, nail em"

As the simulation began, Jastis ordered his team to follow, but keep their heads low. They soon came up to a ramp, and took cover behind a metal fence. Just up ahead, Everett could see one of three Grunts stationed in a energy weapons turret.
"Alright, so first up, Everett, you go using stealth try and get around them and get a clear shot on the turret and Elite. Once I give the order, you fire and we all shoot." Jastis ordered. Everett began scanning for a path up to a vantage point where he could take the shot.
"Sir yes sir!" He responded with, giving a quick salute before activating active camouflage, blending into his surroundings and then moving on. Everett moved carefully between cover, making sure he wasn't in the line of sight of the turret. A short time later he arrived at a guard tower, and after setting up his sniper rifle, he called into Jastis.
"Sir, I am in position and my sights are trained on the turret and the Elite. Just give the word and I'll send them packing."

"Sir, I am in position and my sights are trained on the turret and the Elite. Just give the word and I'll send them packing."
The elite nodded and was gone in a matter of seconds. She tossed the rifle on her back and began climbing up. She found a little perch and had the targets in view.
Luna closed her eyes and glowed blue. she opened them again and rolled out into view. She held her palm out and facing up. She closed her hand into a fist and thrust it into the air. All of the eneies flew up into the air.
Upon seeing this, Mee looked around the ridges to chck for jackles.
