Shadows of JiangXi

Enrico watched the last few jumps, and stepped aside when it was finally time for Vicenta to begin her chase, driving the BJ2 assualt Jeep right off of the gunboat without bothering to wait for it to land. The crashing sound of the jeep hitting the muddy ground, the gunner clinging on for dear life, as the crazed Provost Marshal launched the Jeep into a frantic spin around in the mud, taking off in the general direction of the only bridge leading across the canyon to the south of the drop zone.

Shaking his head as he buttoned up the rear ramp, he caught sight of the flashing message light. Scooping up a TAC headset he slipped it on, heading back towards the cockpit of the aggressive gunboat.

"We're getting a distorted transmission from regional headquarters," Vance reported, as Enrico made his way forward, the Gunboat already sweeping up to chase the jeep, Vance piloting.

Enrico slid into the gunnery station, "any idea what they're trying to say?" he asked strapping into his seat.

"No clue, too distorted from the radiation," Vance said sweeping the gunboat out over the broad canyon, it's spot lights going on as it swept along the edge, before turning and blasting further East.

"Probably a storm warning," Enrico said, shifting in his seat, looking at the radiation scrambled sensors. "We should probably take a sweep over to Regional HQ when we're sure everyone's on their way."

"Aye sir, moving to NAV-2," Vance called, sweeping the gunboat up and over the bridge, to keep overwatch, Enrico with his clipboard scrawling notes as he watched the training exercise.
