Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Continued from the Lab.))
Heading in through the large metal gates of the motor pool and straight into the office's Alex pulled up a computer and accessed the main fraim to make sure everything was in order and to make sure her order came through, with everything in order she quickly checked off the APC as in use and grabbed the key from the key rack and headed off down the line untill she found the APC in mention and climbed in and started it up and drove off towards the Main gates.

((Message tube? What the hell do you think we are, a bank with those tubes propelled by air? We don't have a network of tubes running all through the base, you'll have to bring it to my office yourself, slide it under the door or something, you lazy b*****d. xp ))

((You could, but it'll never be approved, too much work laying underground tubes, too much power to operate, and plainly, a waste of materials. It seems people don't get that we're not the Western Brotherhood, we don't have unlimited materials, which they don't either, but we have even less. Everyone runs around carrying nothing but gauss weapons if they're able, but at a realistic rate, all the 2mm EC ammunition would of been used up long ago because gauss weapons are supposed to be used sparingly, not someone's entire inventory consisting of gauss weapons. Same with resources to create the message air tube, alot of materials and work just to create a complex system of tubes that go all around the base, for what purpose? So some fat a** and lazy mechanic doesn't have to walk the whole fifty yards to an office that's actually close to the motor pool if you look at the base map? You'd have to take it to the science division, but we use radios and intercoms for verbal messages, anything dealing with papers is just dropped off on foot. Just telling you right now that it'll be rejected outright, too much materials would be wasted for such a pointless project, unless you want to scrap your pointless special helicopter to make up like 2-5% of the message tube network, which alot more materials would be required than that. 3nodding ))

((That's my job, killing dreams. xd I only use my gauss weapons in tough spots, mainly against some tough a** enemies, otherwise, I carry enough normal weapons to handle most threats, some of those normal weapons being small arms for minor threats, then a grenade launcher and a Browning M2, if that can't handle the job, then maybe the gauss weapons. Like the reavers, they pack nothing but high technology weapons, like energy weapons and usually travel in large numbers, even a single person in power armor and using gauss weapons is hard pressed if running into them. I try not to use gauss weaponry, even though they're barrels of fun, but I also try to keep in mind the resources and what else is available. Normal shells are fairly easy to come by, we can even recycle shell casings, creating a high technology round is more harder, so of course, they're more rare, so should be used sparingly. It's like stimpacks and super stimpacks, tons of the normal ones, the super stims being rare, so we mostly use the normal stimpacks, same should apply to the gauss weapons and the normal weapons. But if it's a heavy firefight or a host of enemies such as mutants, I'll definitely use gauss weapons, because otherwise, more than likely, I'd be easy pickings without them. To me, RPing realistically is alot more fun, taking care to consider resources, that sort of thing.))

Zaid walked into the motorpool early in the morning
he headed straight towards his Mobile suit he climbed into the cockpit and started it's energy generator
and it came to life it's dash started lighting up with all the gauges and when all it's systems were online

he started moving it by controlling the handles

it made a slight "vvvvvvvt" sound as it started moving and he took it out of it's hangar he headed towards the motorpool giant doors and there was a control booth over there where he had to ask for permission inorder to exit with the mobile suit

Alex popped his head out of the booth and said "What's your business today Zaid"

"I'm taking my baby for a spin to see how she's doing and if I can get her any new toys"
replied Zaid

"I see you're taking the boosters instead of the extra ammo containers"
said Alex

"yeah I want to see how fast I can get her to go"
said Zaid

Alex disappeared inside his booth and he pressed a button and the giant motorpool doors opened Zaid put on his visors just as the sunlight hit his eyes he squinted a bit before moving his mobilesuit

he started "walking" through the base and he almost stomped an initiate by mistake
it wasn't his fault that the initiate was drunk at ten in the morning
and almost threw himself under the suit's feet

"that was close Meena"
said Zaid talking to his mobilesuit he named it Meena

he reached the base main gate and asked for permission to take it out on a training run in the wastelands after the main gate opened he made the suit get lower a bit in a near kneeling position and he activated the boosters just as he made it jump out giving it a great leap and a very cool exit

it would certainly take some time for the boosters' energy to refill

so he started doing some running maneuvers and jumping or dashing after half an hour or so he decided to use the thruster maneuvers he had been planning to use in combat

so he started with jumping to the side and activating boosters

he even wanted to try a crazy move so he found a ridge that was very high and would make a suitable place to try out this insane move
he started out by running and getting the suit into max speed before reaching the edge and jumping off
the fall was almost 40 meters when he jumped he flipped his suit and activated the boosters making the mobile suit land on the ground like a missle it even caused a crater in the sand dunes around him about of about 15 meters in radius

when he made the suit stand up he found out that the suspension system was not damaged in the fall
he smiled and thought to himself
"wow this machine has great potential wonder what would happen if we can get scientists who spcialize in these things to work on them and improve them"

after finishing his test runs he returned to the motorpool

and after spending about 2 hours maintaining and cleaning the mobile suit in it's hangar he headed to the barracks to get cleaned up himself and see if anything happens today

((Oh Corey, if you want me to edit anything on the front page seeing how im not in charge of the motor pool anymore just let me know okay? or ask the General to remove the thread if you wish to make a new one in your name. It's seen alot of history and all that i know it has sentimental value but its still a pice of crap that i never really could be arssed to put any effort into creating sweatdrop

Lypse entered the motor pool with a small stack of filled-out papers in hand and Jax in tow. When she arrived she spotted a mechanic working diligently on the underside of a buggy. "Excuse me, sir?" Lypse began, holding the papers in her hand.
The man rolled out from underneath the vehicle, his face concealed behind goggles and a small mask covering the orifices on the front of his face. "What d'ya need?"
"I have some forms that authorize me access to a Hummer tonight." She replied, smiling at the mechanic and holder out her hand to help him up.
Ignoring her hand, he got up on his own and accepted the papers. "Let's see..." He flipped through them, scanning the various portions then turned to Lypse, "Looks like everything's in order, It'll be ready and waiting an hour before ya need it." With that, the mechanic returned to his work and Lypse left the Motor Pool, an eager smile displayed upon her face.
