Summary

Maxwell, a corporate Johnson, requested that a team assault a vulnerable MCT warehouse and steal as much as they can in order to cover for the disappearance of a few specific aircraft-related components.

The Meet

Maxwell arranges for the team to meet at a rented office near Sea-Tac. He states that a weapons shipment has been mis-delivered to an MCT overstock warehouse in Tacoma, which is additionally undergoing a security system upgrade for the next two days, leaving it more vulnerable than most MCT sites. He requests that the team retrieve the three following components from that warehouse:

  • Advanced Fighter Drone Avionics Card
  • Guided MANPAD Missiles
  • MCT Platinum Fire Control Circuit Cards

In order to cover for the disappearance of those components, Maxwell requests that the team loot as many parts as possible and generally damage the warehouse in such a way that the inventory will take several days. As payment, he will provide a PR cover story and matrix support to remove any trace of the team's raid.

The Plan

Santesso pulls up a blueprint for the pre-fab MCT warehouse and the team decides that a rapid smash and grab approach using Ojou's helicopter would be the best approach. Roadie locates a nearby area in the industrial district to stage their vehicles, and the team settles on using the warehouse's forklift drones to load as much inventory as possible.

Upon flying the helicopter stealthily to within 1 km of the MCT overstock warehouse in Tacoma, the team realizes that the roof is covered with approximated a dozen HMG turrets and four SAM turrets. They briefly panic and debate whether or not the turrets are operable when Pell decides that they can test the defenses using a Trid Phantasm replicating the helicopter charging the building. Ojou calls on some contacts in order to confirm that MCT will prevent danger-close missile shots or explosives to damage targets outside of their territorial control unless directly under attack.

The illusory helicopter is immediately blasted by all turrets, requiring an on-call rigger to jump in and take control of the defenses. A second pass by the illusory helicopter wastes more SAM munitions, but in the process the MCT rigger manages to spot the team's real helicopter.

The Run

Realizing that they've been found out, Ojou commits immediately and charges the facility at extremely low altitude while the rest of the team shoots out the turrets that can target them. She lands on the roof and calls Sora Ozaki to request that she delay any aircraft scrambling to respond to the MCT site.

Once on the building, Voiceless drops down into the warehouse through a skylight and hides on top of the palate racks where she can observe a very large number of Steel Lynx drones with HMGs stacking up to use the forklift drones as cover. Several large jumped-in humanoid drones armed with grenade launchers and HMGs are deployed as well. Voiceless jumps from rack to rack in order to reach the rocket launchers, then grabs a Yakusoku MRL and starts firing inside, collapsing several rows of racks and narrowly avoiding damaging the sniper rifles that everyone wanted.

Meanwhile, Pell and Roadie finish destroying the remaining rooftop turrets while Santesso accesses the facility's host through a disassembled external camera.

Aftermath

Rewards

The team was gifted with a publicized cover story and having all trace of their assault wiped from the matrix. Each member looted 70,000 Nuyen worth of MCT appropriate guns/drones/electronics/cyberware.
