The conversing hadn't been all too eventful. Just some strategy ideas, and some casual conversation. But the other Darcsen bringing up the fact that one of her questions was to be asked in private made her curious. "What is she planning on doing? Sweet talking to my rank? Or maybe more than that?" She whispered to herself as she looked around for ammo. Celeste never carried grenades, trying to carry as many lance rounds as possible. "I'll have to wait and see, I didn't like how he was trying to pull moves on both of us." Celeste didn't hate the Darcsens, but was leery of two of them, one a higher rank than the other, and what they might pull.

Her thoughts, and her ammo search was interrupted by the new lancer speaking up and waving his arm. He mentioned something she had yet to have, a defect with her lance. "Haven't had a defect in mine yet, though I probably just jinxed it there" She yelled in a joking manner. She'd give it a few test pulls in the morning.

Sigs comment on needing a real fight was well noted by Lynette "[b]Yes, to test its performance in battle, we'd need targets who could fire off more than 2 shots before they became a corpse. On top of being able to use tactics to fight. That will be done when the army finished up in Gallia and we move back into fighting with the Federation. For now, think of all tests as technical and mechanical tests.[/b]" She pulled out a notepad and began writing things down. "[b]Engine and drive are already in the works, this was just a substitute system with an engine used in one of the improved heavies. Once that is complete, Siegfried will have a engine and drive that is truly unique. Vents aren't linked to the current engine and run on a separate, smaller engine that can't turn them at the rate needed, will be fixed with new engine.[/b]" Lynette skipped over the leather seats suggestion. "[b]Moving on to the loader.[/b]" She looked at Lukas "[b]You're saying the loader pauses and the rammer doesn't get the shell fully into the breach? We might have to do some more testing with it then.[/b]" She stopped writing, and tapped the pencil on the pad. Fewer problems than I thought. "[b]Is that all? Or do you have anything to add Lieutenant? Anything that hasn't already been spoken?[/b]" Lynette asked, looking at Lieutenant Biermann.
