SD 10106.05
The Captain ordered the USS Ganymede to sector 543-12-123 where a massive subspace distortion was detected 17 hours ago. It is the Captain's opinion that this is a Romulan invasion force.

The Ganymede arrived cloaked in the sector to discover 3 waves of 40 Romulan vessels waiting in the sector for something.

Host Gov_MKlore says:
@TCO: Evasive Captain or you won’t have to wait to die at the hands of the enemy!

Host CO_Taylor says:
COMM:  T'Hling:  Yes, Governor.  It seems that today is a good day to die.  I may have an idea.

CTO_Abbott says:
TO: Work on masking the ships engine output. I don't want us to be detected in anyway.

Host Gov_MKlore says:
@COMM: Ganymede: Captain I'm at your command

Host CO_Taylor says:
FCO:  As the mines are deployed, you will take the ship in a random direction on that transecting course.  CTO:  Lay them on thick.

TO_Khorgh says:

CTO_Abbott says:
CTO: Aye, Sir. ::begins to deploy mines carefully and strategically placed::

Host CO_Taylor says:
COMM:  T’Hling:  We're going to lay gravitic mines to try to muddy the waters.  What if we also laid probes that would emit IFFEA codes to look like ship transponders?

CNS_Ashworth says:
CO:  It seems that they have missed their annual required psych scans and physicals for the past 3 years.   However, at last report, Rittenhouse was shown major signs of stress due to the loss of his wife.  As for Malone, no explanation given for his missed physical and psych scan.
