*Commander Cadix felt the shuddering as the shuttle descended from the upper atmosphere and into the planet`s environment. It was not long after that they had identified a large enough section of land with enough of a vantage point to be able to easily defend the site, and still many routes to use in and out of the area for logistical and tactical purposes. As the shuttle landed, he was one of the first boots to be on the ground, a fact he was proud of and endeavored to have happen each time they deployed.
Pointing to have his Officers congregate on him as they all landed, he was quick to issue his Orders group, waving and indicating the separate sites that he had viewed on a datapad on the way in and his vision for how everything was to look and pan out. With the orders passed,. Cadix watched as his Officer moved off to their respective formations and gave them to their troops. Within the hour, the Main Operating Base was being constructed and established atop a hill, one edge being on a small cliff, with several routed moving near the base.
After another 24 hours most of the needed facilities had been set up and the final few more complex and intricate systems were being deployed. The MOB, however, was nearly complete and operational. Most of the troops had established their shift schedule for whatever duty they took up and half of them were sleeping after the very long day, especially with the added stress of the potential combat they faced on the way in. As he received a final back brief from his Officers, he took the moment to pass up his report and have it relay back to Lord Diux, piggybacked on the Fleet`s comms infrastructure to report that they were deployed on Balmorra and that they were beginning the, thus far peaceful, support and security operations on the planet. They`d officially expanded the Dark Tide.*
