Miller shivered slightly as his boot first made contact with snow, while he had seen it before he still wasn't used to it. Luckily the standard SGC gear kept him warm enough, the only down side was that the black stood out like a sore thumb. Though they were expecting contacts sooner or later, even though the Langarans were supposedly meant to become a decoy. He didn't know if he liked that idea though he supposed they didn't have the Jumpers that the Atlantis expedition had. Those things were good decoys, they didn't even have any hand held lifesigns detectors which he thought was a bit stupid and was surprised they hadn't made their own or taken some from Atlantis. The city had enough to spare anyway. He flicked the safety of his P-90 from SAFE to single shot and looked through the sight as he scanned the nearby buildings. By this point the team had split up to two at either side of the street, so far they were working well with standard procedure though he guessed that wasn't really his issue. They reached a wall at the outer edge of the facility and he took out his small periscope to look over the top of the wall. There were tracks in the snow, quite a lot of tracks actually indicating regular traffic. Though he could see two people dressed in typical Lucian Alliance garb, black leather, on an obvious patrol. He was quite happy to have his nice cloth, that leather would be absolutely freezing. He turned to face Kay, whispering at this point. He could probably talk normally but wasn't taking the risk. "Regular traffic, we got two on patrol. Some large tinted windows and a small door. The door has snow piled up so probably not in active use. Not a lot of cover though from the wall to the facility." he handed the small plastic periscope to Kay as he took a knee to face down the other streets. This was where it was a command decision, she could either move them round or initiate the distraction so they could barge their way in. [b]Tonak[/b] Tonak was keeping an eye on the space battle with mixed feelings. They couldn't keep the Tauri vessel at bay forever, that much was certain. He pointed to a couple of soldiers who were just standing guard. "They aren't attacking us through take the Naquadria to the gate with everyone else." Right now they were literally just rolling it through. There was no point in losing man power to simply take it through the gate, that would simply be a waste off time. They had plenty of it though, taking all that the Langarians had already mined and there was a substantial store. The sly devils. The annoying thing is he knew they would be coming, with or without the Tauri. They wouldn't let the alliance risk their planet for too long but he didn't have the man power. Kane may have become a powerful warlord in a small amount of time though he wasn't really able to use all of his forced on this one endeavour which why he didn't send an occupying force but instead a raiding team. Now it was more or less a waiting game, to see who made a move first on the facility. The Tauri or the Langarans. Most of his men were inside the building making barricades however he did have some men outside the facility on patrol or hiding out in nearby buildings. He even had a two snipers set up in nearby spires who would see anyone trying to cross the walled area into the facility.
