"Jammer is on them now and I left a surprise if they try to chance back the frequencies...I think the demo charge is ok...", says Krakrefr and then he jumps to the ground next to Silver.

Silver lands a crushing blow to the first soldier's throat causing him to clutch at his throat and fall to his knees struggling for air. The second soldier steps back and brings his rifle up and as he does so Silver lunges forward and activates the fold sword. The mans movement causes the blade to shift and the sword pierces the upper right portion of the man's torso. The soldier grunts in pain and squeezes the trigger of his rifle spraying a burst of rounds past Silver's head which ricochet off of the vehicle. Silver follows up with another strike, this time the blade finds it way just below the mans sternum and then in a fluid motion Silver guides the blade up to pierce the mans heart killing him instantly.
Inside the vehicle Krakrefr discovers a small plain white booklet that he identifies as authentication codes along with another booklet containing several frequencies and radio identification call signs for A Battery of the 112th Battalion. The vehicle utilizes a dish mounted on a pole that extends approximately forty feet vertically from the rear of the vehicle. Krakrefr deduces that the jammer works by sending out interference in whatever direction the dish is facing. The jammer is currently set to jam all frequencies except for one, which the enemy appears to be operating on.
Krakrefr can include some frequencies and exclude other from being interfered with; the range of interference is uncertain but this appears to be a short to medium range jammer and he would need to know a general direction to point the dish in order to effectively jam the enemy radios. The soldier that was inside the vehicle does have a map in the pocket of his fatigues but the only markings on the map is a circle around the clearing where the Wildcard is currently positioned and notations on the estimated coordinates of the Wildcard.
Gaden squeezes off a round of plasma at the advancing soldiers and strikes the lead square in the chest, then aims and follows it up with another kill. Maiokus stands and begins to sprint toward Gaden and is immediately peppered with rounds (Five attacks, three of which hit causing: 9, 9, 15 damage); it feels like a series of jack hammers slam into his chest and torso, his flak jacket absorbs some of the damage but the rounds ultimately penetrate his armor and he takes a total of 15 points of damage (3+3+9). Maiokus drops down beside Gaden shouts at the colonel (I will need to know what stat you reduce before I know whether your attacks hit as it will affect your modifiers).
Njall rushes into the cargo bay just as the first enemy soldier's silhouette appears at the doorway, he squeezes off a round from his shotgun and the shot hits the wall next to the soldier causing him to jump back behind the wall. Gaden levels his plasma rifle and takes down another soldier as they stack up behind the one using the bay wall for cover.
The soldiers fire back, two of which fire at Gaden but their rounds strike cover. A GTC soldier is hit and goes down. The colonel looks to the breach and seeing his other soldiers busy fighting the surrounding enemy, he engages the intruding soldiers as well and puts a round through the head of one of them. There are now four of the eight remaining. Gaden can see the soldier in the lead pull something from his tactical vest and glance inside the cargo bay; apparently preparing to throw something in!
Shuth is able to patch up the soldiers that he can get to, but there are too many for him to save them all and several have bled out before he is able to to make it to them. The numbers start to dwindle, however, as there are fewer soldiers being brought in as the men outside are too heavily engaged to bring any wounded back. Shuth has managed to stabilize nearly every soldier remaining in the cargo bay that didn't bleed out, but he can hear cries for a medic coming from outside.
Out of Character: : Damage is applied first to your endurance stat, once that drops to 0 you take damage to your choice of Dexterity or Strength (Your choice but a single attack must be subtracted from a single statistic, you can't split the damage between them). Once two stats drop to 0 you are unconscious, if all three drop to 0 you are dead. At this point Maoikus would have 0 Endurance and 5 points of damage remaining that you must determine whether they will go toward Strength or Dexterity.
The IFV's have been firing during the engagement, but they are stationary at the moment.

Out of Character: : I'll assume the Wildcard has the layout of the Type A Freetrader in MgT Main Book. Or is it one of the (Many) variants?...
In Character: : Njall curses the enemy, and his planet, in Sagamaal (Words a mother probably shouldn't have passed on to a son) and steps back into the cover of the bulkhead iris-valve separating the cargo hold from the crew area. Chambering another shell he keeps the shotgun trained on the cargo doors. Over the crew commnet he calls "Enerii, close the cargo-bay doors, we've got boarders. Shuth, there's no more coming. Secure your door."
If a target presents itself, shoot at it:.
