Mission: Azimuth Horizon: Crusade - Chapter 3: Preparations
Location: SB 10 Conference Room
Timeline: 87170.83

Niomo, keeping with the new order, raised his hand. After being acknowledged, he stood and began, “I agree with the overall plan, Fleet Captain. But has it taken into consideration the affects of any other Factions’ plans? For example, we know that the Klingons will attempt to use Ion Pulses to accelerate the anomaly. While we are going in circles, couldn’t the Klingons start their plan and disrupt our ultimate goal of sealing the Horizon in a circular pattern? I highly doubt that any of the factions would just sit idly by while we attempt our strategy.”

Niomo rubbed his chin while he took another moment to think. He looked down at his PADD and pulled up additional specifications on the Alsea.

“Additionally, you are counting the Alsea as just one vessel. All 3 of her sections are warp-capable. While the overall warp speed might decrease, I might be able to push the Tertiary Hull’s MicroCore warp speed closer to 9.4 or 5 around 24 hours. Only a guess though. Either way, it looks like all we care about initially is getting enough rifting surrounding the Horizon. Using quick theory, if I reduce energy drain from the MicroCore from everything that was not shields, life support and the engines, I probably could pull it off without major modifications to the systems. Not totally sure what systems we will need to survive the Anomaly though. I also can’t guarantee that the Tertiary Hull will not break down and need a pick up…” He looked at Commander Rivers, “Of course, this would bring down any tactical abilities of the Alsea as a whole, should we become engaged and the tertiary hull was still lagging behind, or unable to support the other two sections. Suppose this's my CO & XO’s decision, not mine.”

He sat down, ideas flooding his mind. He started taking down notes for possible redesigns of the MicroCore. Possibly even upgrading Engineering to house a larger core.

There isn't enough time however. Sounds like Samji wants us moving out within the day.

He sighed. He wish he had a mission under his belt before he had to make modifications to a warp core he didn't fully understand.
