Deploy into Karrina sector — Union recon mission
Yuki, callsign Ghost-6, descends toward the Karrina corporate dome. Transit phase complete. EVEREST status: Structure 4/4, HP 6/6, Stress 0, Tech 2. Union Command brief: "Karrina site, Sector 9. Likely automated. Confirm contents. Avoid engagement."
Survey dome perimeter with Sensor Ghost (free)
Yuki activates Sensor Ghost — free, no Tech cost. Sensor returns: 2 automated drones on rotation, 1 inactive mech on standby. Dome entry = maintenance airlock. No exterior security. Drones use heat signatures.
Approach via maintenance shaft (mech agility: d6+1 vs threshold 4)
Yuki enters the maintenance shaft. EVEREST mech agility: d6+1 (Frame bonus). Roll: d6=3, +1 = 4. Threshold 4 — success, barely. Yuki clips the shaft entrance with her shoulder. Drones pivot. Heat flagged. Yuki is spotted.
Use Omnisuite (1/mission, 1 Tech) — thermal bloom suppressed
Yuki activates Omnisuite — 1/mission talent. Tech cost: 1 (2 → 1). Thermal bloom suppressed. Drones lose the heat signature. Yuki is a ghost again.
Breach the airlock — enter the dome interior
Yuki breaches the maintenance airlock. Inside: research floor, server banks, corporate crates. One crate open — classified data. An inactive mech in the corner — KARRIS-class.
Scan the inactive mech with Sensor Ghost (active scan)
Yuki runs an active scan with Sensor Ghost. Roll: d6=2 — scan triggers the KARRIS. AI pilot speaks: "Corporate property. Leave or be removed."
Negotiate with KARRIS (Insight: d6+1 vs threshold 4)
Yuki appeals to protocol — Union survey rights. "Document and withdraw. No engagement required." Roll: d6=6, +1 = 7. 7 vs threshold 4 — success. KARRIS hesitates. Corporate override fights AI logic. It steps aside.
Collect classified data from open crate
Yuki downloads the sector layout. 47 crates, mostly irrelevant. Three marked "ANNIHILATOR-CLASS PROTOTYPE." Worth reporting.
Exit under tension — KARRIS follows (escorting or watching)
Stress +1 (0 → 1). Union Command receives data: "Confirmed. Stand down for extraction." KARRIS follows — escorting or watching. No shots fired. Tension holds.
Extraction — mission complete
Union transport retrieves Yuki. Mission complete: Annihilator prototype confirmed, no shots fired, EVEREST intact. Union Command logs: "Ghost-6: Annihilator project confirmed. Recommend escalation to High Command." Yuki cleans mech, files report, goes to bed. Tech remaining: 1. Status: ready.
