It was a good plan, it just had a few issues. After the Inquisitor finished Gabriel leaned forward to address his concerns. [color=1a7b30]"All in all Inquisitor Alexius you have a good plan. There are only a few flaws that I could think of. The first is that I do not believe that we should bring the Cannoness along for our attempts at diplomacy. While her zeal is commendable it would not serve her well when negotiating with the Mechanicus. You must remember the Mechanicus have their own beliefs and I would rather not have our diplomatic meeting ruined by a theological debate. The second flaw is a bit bigger. We can not afford to kill the leaders of the Forge Moon. They are just as irreplaceable as the technology on the Forge Moon itself. Because what use is the Forge Moon without the tech priests to run it."[/color] After addressing the Inquisitor, Gabriel turned to Gregori. [color=1a7b30]"Now if turns out we do have to fight them my recommendation for fighting the Mechanicus is this, don't. The Mechanicus will have just about better everything then we would have and the only way we could beat them would be to drown them in bodies. Our best bet really is diplomacy as otherwise we will likely cause irreparable damage to either the Forge Moon or its inhabitants. Though we must remember our plans must be flexible as we don't actually know the situation at the Forge Moon. For all we know they were wiped off the map centuries ago and when we get there the planet is just an empty husk. I'm sorry that I don't have much to contribute at this stage, but I promise that when we arrive I will be able to come up with a much better plan."[/color] As Gabriel leaned back again he couldn't help but grimace once more at the thought of trying to take a Forge Moon relatively intact. If this turned violent chances were many Imperial Guardsmen would die.
