*Oricalcos begins a scan of the threatening vessel. He begins to broadcast the results as well as transmit schematics up to the bridge for analysis and tactical advice.
Oricalcos: The carrier's shield are at full strength, so I will need to start charging up the main lasers to full combat effectiveness in order to have any effect on them. The smaller lasers are offline, but can help deal with the fighters when they are online, but we really need the drones to take them down. Both will take a couple minutes to get ready.
But note to commanders, as the weapons guy, can I really get the authorisation to launch the battle drones, it's not my fault the last time I tried to use them, they nearly took out the engines.....ok, I forgot to update the circuitry when we upgraded the engines, and they mistook them for enemy craft, but it's still not entirely my fault.
Back on task, let me know when Chalex is back in command, I need his authorisation to even activate the torpedo bays and use my Isphera II prototypes, which would make this a lot easier. But we only have one set, and it'll be a while before I can get the parts together for another batch, so we might wanna save them for a dire emergency.
Weapons scans will be done in a minute or two.
*Tuning away from full intercom, Oricalcos activates the manual weapons bay drone control panel
Oricalcos (over drone interface): All drones, all drones, ship is under threat from possible astro-pirate attack, prep all laser weapons along protocol 3 alpha.
