Tactics of War [Monday, 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.]

[replicarter.livejournal.com]

Eighth strode into class, wrote the assignment on the board, stationed a few replicators to watch the students, and sat her desk, motionless as she sekritly communed with her agitated brethren who were warring on a far away galaxy.



Please look over your handout from last time, pair up or make groups of three or four – as you wish – and share with your classmates your three favorite war tactics. I will be recording your conversations, no need to turn anything in. If you have any questions, speak to your TA, Callisto. If you need me for any particular reason, however, I will be available after class for questions.

[[They’re keeping me riiiiiiiiiiidiculously late at work today (woe), I apologize for the lateness of this post and the lack of awesome it entails.]]

Pip sits down at a desk and waits for other people to come in so he can grab them and chat their ear off about tactics.

Ivanova is making a very strong effort not to limp as she walks into class. She smiles a little bit at the guy she doesn't know as she carefully lowers herself into a chair. "Hey. Ivanova. Want to talk tactics?"

"'Course," Pip says. "Pip Bernadette, by the way," he adds, reaching out his left hand. His right is hanging in a sling.

Sam sat down with the rest of the walking wounded. "Hey. Mind if I join you guys?" She offered her hand. "Sam Carter."

"No problem," Pip answered. He reached out with his left hand.

Ivanova extends her own left hand, gratefully she didn't actually have to move the other. Her right arm should have been in a sling, if she would let anyone look at her shoulder. "Good to meet you. Saw some action this weekend, I take it."

Pip grimaced. "Yeah, you might say that. I got grabbed by the guy handing out food and ended up defending some back exit." He shrugged, then winced.

Aeryn takes a seat.

Cameron sits down beside Aeryn and maybe he's kinda grinning as he looks over the tactics.

"Evening," Callisto took a seat near Aeryn and Cameron.

Re: Get together and talk about kickin' ass.

Aeryn clears her throat.

Re: Get together and talk about kickin' ass.

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"You okay Aeryn?" Callisto asked.

Re: Get together and talk about kickin' ass.

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"Yo," Cameron greeted. "I'm feeling in favour of pincer movements tonight."

Re: Get together and talk about kickin' ass.

[can_be_more]

"Good tactic," Aeryn says. "Blitzkrieg's my personal favorite." Really, that should be a surprise to no one.

Re: Get together and talk about kickin' ass.

"Pincer movements are good, altough you need a decent sized force to pull them off successfully. I've always been a fan of hit and run tactics myself, especially when you have a smaller force attacking a larger."

Bridge bounces in his seat and looks around for other people to form a group with.

Re: Get together and talk about kickin' ass.

Alanna nodded at Bridge.

Re: Get together and talk about kickin' ass.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Bridge bounces over to Alanna. "So, favourite tactics? I'm a big fan of taking the enemy by surprise, personally."

Re: Get together and talk about kickin' ass.

[threeweapons.livejournal.com]

"I like a good ambush." Alanna shrugged. "And cutting the enemy off from their supplies is always a good one."

Re: Get together and talk about kickin' ass.

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

"Yup. They can't fight if there's nothing to throw at you. Or to eat."

Re: Get together and talk about kickin' ass.

Janet glances over at Bridge and Alanna from the sign-in sheet and wonders if they have room for a third conversationalist.

Re: Get together and talk about kickin' ass.

Anakin waved at Janet. "Hey. Needed a conversation person, too? as I curse timezones yay"

Re: Get together and talk about kickin' ass.

[janet_fraiser]

Janet grinned. "Yeah, definitely," she said, taking a seat near Anakin. Timezones are evil. And I need to sleep soon, wah! Do you mind slowplay?

Re: Get together and talk about kickin' ass.

"So, favorite tactics? Jedi tend to work in pairs, so I'm used to the 'hopelessly outnumbered but we're Jedi so ha!' strategy."

Slowplay is just fine.
