Ethan listened carefully listened to what Rear Admiral Marshall had to say, and making sure he had a thorough understanding of everything. When Atticus had asked his questions, Ethan grew a bit more respect for the captain's attempts to better understand the mission. When everything had been said, he began strategizing once more. How could they take every advantage that they can? For example, where could they start? choosing the ideal location to begin looking for the enemy would allow them to fight on their own terms, which could be the difference between success and failure. Ethan looked at the map, calculating the risks and advantages of every possible location. When he finally found a good spot for them to begin, he made a mental note to tell Atticus before they leave. The amount of ammunition they had could be a possible issue, but Ethan decided that there should be enough ammunition between all of them. The A.I. was a pleasant surprise, and even Ethan paused at that announcement. [color=fff200]"So... When do we leave?"[/color] This is a question that actually made Ethan think a bit more highly of Daniel, seeing as time could also play a vital role in the outcome of the mission. The ideal time for battle could vary between the roles in the team; for example, as tactician, Ethan's visor allowed him to see the location of the enemies no matter where they were or how dark it was, as long as they were in the nearby area. However, some of the members were not trained to operate the technology Ethan uses in order to do what he does.
