Konstantina had, somewhat predictably, shut down at the contact. Felt like she wasn't sure what to do, and just hung there. You probably shouldn't have added mussing her hair, but hey, no one ever said you weren't cruel sometimes. She's probably still unable to speak.

Natalya on the other hand, didn't even seem to register it. It's kind of strange, she as good as saved your life in Paris, but you're reasonably sure if she was ordered to kill you tomorrow, she'd be up there, trying her best. Might be able to pull it off, too- everyone gets unlucky, sometimes. You wonder, idly, if luck extends to the loa- you'd done a bit of reading on them at the castle. Personally, you don't think you're quite wild enough to rate being any of the Guede loa, but you're willing to admit Brigitte knows a hell of a lot more on the subject than you. You'll have to work on it.

You're fully armed this trip- no sense in not carrying everything you can, and it's providing a useful test of Merlin's new extradimensional bays, not to mention a useful booster to her confidence. It's also comforting, knowing you've got the combined throw weight of the better part of a conventional squadron onboard- eight AMRAAMS in each dorsal bay, sixteen Agile IIIs occupying each nacelle bay, and your centerline loaded with a further twenty four AMRAAMS- the fact that you're carrying a total of forty AMRAAMS and a further thirty two Agiles at no weight penalty kind of boggles your mind.

2/3

Behind you, Merlin has been quiet since they unhooked the APU on the ground- checking over her systems, you assume, though, unusually, your MFD, the one displaying the sensor readout, isn't flashing through it's settings to show you what her main panel in back is seeing- it's just a plan enhanced radar overlay, and completely superfluous. The target markers displayed on the inside of your canopy are more than adequate, especially to track the civilian traffic passing above and south of you, though, vaguely, your passive sensors can detect the CAP over Paris. You note it's been beefed up- looks like a full squadron of mirages now.

You're supposed to be linking up with fighters from JG.6/III and II- two squadrons from a Luftwaffe wing, one of the few they have equipped with their domestic variant tomcats. Should be good to be with cats on the flight line again- you've kind of missed the sight of ranked fighters on a flight line instead of striker racks crammed in a hangar, the sound of massed turbofans spooling up preflight. You've missed going out with live weapons and ammo with the intent to deliver hurt.

Part of you, a small, dangerous part, has missed the killing. You clamp down on it as soon as it appears, but it's always there.

You're nearing Berlin when Merlin, in the back, Finally speaks up. “Frank?”

“Whatcha got, Merlin?” You ask, looking around- there's nothing in the air, though there's a formation out in front of you that you're pretty sure is your group.

“N-nothing. But I wanted to ask you, do you have a bad feeling about this?”

“About this flight?” You ask.

“No. About this. The transfer. Going east.” She says. “I-I'm scared, Frank. I feel like something's going to happen. Something awful.”

[x] “Like what? Do you know?”

The tone of her voice worries you- she's usually what you'd describe as 'relatively confident' in the air, but now she just sounds... well, like a scared little girl. Which, to be fair, she is right now, so you can't fault her that.

“Like what, kiddo? Do you know?” You ask, keeping your own voice calm and reassuring.

“N-no.” She admits, quietly. “I just... I don't know. I'm sorry.”

You laugh, then key the intercom again. “For having a bad feeling and not being able to tell me exactly why?” You ask. “Kiddo, we're heading into a warzone, I'd say it's justified.”

“I guess.” She says, trailing off. “Just promise me you'll be careful.”

“Aren't we always?” You ask, stressing the we.

“No.” She says, flatly, then changes the subject. “Hey, there's our guys.”

1/3 (spacing is weird here, might be 4)

Jagdgeschwader 6 is one of those units that has a long and storied history- and just so happens to be equipped with tomcats. In the war, they were formed around the remnants of a wing that had been equipped with Me-110s, and flown predominantly in the defensive role, intercepting martian raids and attacks- and paying dearly for it. Converted over to the Fw-190 in '44, they joined the efforts on the western front, shifting east after the liberation of France. Their tomcats- two groups of them, six squadrons- represent a considerable chunk of the German Tomcat fleet, but they're also one of the most potent air superiority forces available right now. Their tomcats are just emerging from an indigenous upgrade program, and as you close, slotting in with the rearmost squadron, your practiced eye makes out several differences.

Word has it the Luftwaffe tomcat drivers have been straining at the bit to get into the fight- almost their entire fleet was grounded following a crash about a year ago, with the decision to embark an an ambitious upgrade and modernization program only settled on after the echocats in the pacific started wreaking havoc against the Soviets and Chinese there. You've heard these new luftkats are similar, though you note they lack both the thrust vectoring and the canards of the navy models.

Like you, they're headed west to replace a fought out unit- in this case, a USAF F-15E wing. You'll be joining a pair of Polish squadrons at the base, one in their locally-modified F-20s and one of J35Js, which you're worried will make the place cramped beyond belief, though you've heard the base was built to house two or three wings, if necessary.

They don't talk much, and as you cross to the east, you manage to catch sight of the area where the battle of Berlin took place- the wreckage is mostly gone, though you can still see the scar in the ground where the dreadnought went down.

2/4

Poland itself shows evidence of the campaign across it- though from up here, it can be hard to tell, especially this far back. The Allied nations retook this land months ago, and the recovery is well underway, though as you get closer to Torun, your goal, you make out more and more places where you can see a battle was fought- the moonscape of an artillery target, the occasional crashed aircraft your sensors pick up and highlight, that sort of thing.

The luftwaffe aircraft start landing first at the base- which you have to admit, is huge. Three good-sized runways, and taxiways that look long enough to handle fighters taking off from them as well- this place could probably get it's contingent in the air on alert in a hurry, and you mark the presence of heavy antiaircraft defenses, both static and mobile. Hell, you can see a patriot battery from here, it's boxy launchers pointed more-or-less east. Almost makes you wonder what you can't see.

Upon landing yourself- the last aircraft to do so, you're directed by a marshal in a polish air force uniform to one of four identical hangars set along the back of the tarmac. Taxiing inside, you're happy to see the twin's fighter, along with the striker racks- and marine guards. It's not that you don't trust the allies, but you feel better knowing the jarheads are here too.

3/4

>>34916189
Dat Red/Raikov.

There's also a pair of racks in the back housing ground strikers, though you're not sure about their model. You wonder, briefly, why they're painted that flat black, then decide you're not too worried about it.

You're directed to your spot- a stall along the left side of the hangar- and finally shut down everything, popping the seal of the canopy and setting your helmet on top of your instrument panel as your crew unlocks the ladder and extends it.

“Glad to see ya made it, sir.” the chief says, saluting then holding out his hand. “Chief Marshall at your service.”

You return the salute and the handshake. “Glad to have you with us, chief. You from the Saratoga?”

He nods. “Yessir, Freddy wanted me to send his regards.” He says. “He got sent stateside with the sara as an instructor.” He laughs. “He hates it.”

[x] I bet he does. Have you met my RIO?

You snort and nod. “I bet he does, hell, I would too. They standing up new wings?”

Chief Marshall nods. “Yessir, Fred got tapped to teach at a tech school for new Tomcat mechanics. Looks like a lot of his students are gonna be foreign nationals though, scuttlebutt says there's a half dozen countries interested in them now.”

You laugh. “I can't imagine why, chief.” you look back, helping Merlin down off the last step fo the ladder. “Have ya met my RIO? Lieutenant Senior grade Samantha Wells. Callsign Merlin.”

Merlin looks up at your new chief. “So this is the wonderkid, huh?” He asks, then smiles. “You're welcome in the hangar anytime you like, Lieutenant Wells.”

She nods like that's expected- and it may well be. “T-thank you.” She says. “H-have you worked w-with Wyverns before?”

The chief looks around, then shakes his head. “No ma'am. Truth be told, none of us have, there's just not enough guys to go around to train for these birds. But my crew's got nearly two hundred years combined experience on the fast jets, and we just got out of a six month school on the airframe.”

Merlin nods. “I-I can help, t-there's some off the books c-changes to this one.” She says. “A-and I worked w-with the chance-vought f-factory team in California a-and England.”

the chief nods. “We'd be glad to have the help, ma'am.”

“A-and call me M-merlin, chief.” She says. “I-I don't think I'm o-old enough t-to be a ma'am y-yet.”

He grins. “Yes Ma- er. Merlin.”

1/3

Merlin nods, satisfied, and the chief looks over at your fighter. “She's still too warm to work on yet, but we'll be taking a poke here in a bit. Base SOP is to leave everything fuelled and carrying at least a fifty percent load, but they said you came in armed?”

You nod. “Yeah, fully armed.”

“Thank god for small favors, sir. Our load toads are already busy, we don't have nearly enough to go around here. Hell, half the time we're helping to Poles or the Krauts with their shit.” He says.

You nod, having expected that.

“Commander Kazanski wanted to see you when you landed, told me to pass it on.” He says. “Her office is over there-” he points across the flight line, to a cluster of admin buildings alongside the tarmac. “Up on the fourth floor. Kinda nice, overlooks the flight line.”

You nod again, having expected that as well.

“When you're done up there, miss Merlin, if you want to come back down and show us the ropes, we'd appreciate the help.” He says.

Merlin nods. “W-will do. I-is it ok if I e-eat in here?” She asks.

“As long as you don't make a mess.” the chief responds. “I don't run a messy shop.” He half-turns at a call from one of his crew- then shakes his head. “Ahh crap. 'scuse me, I gotta go see what they've boogered up this time. Nice meeting ya, sir, ma'am.” You shake his hand again then head out, angling across the flight line to the admin building.

2/3

Inside, it's basically everything you've come to expect- offices, records rooms, that sort of thing. Elevators are in the center of the building, though there's stairwells around as well- you'd rather not walk if you can avoid it though.

Ice's office is actually two rooms in- she shares a secretarial team with the commanders of JG6, who, apparently, either hasn't arrived yet, or isn't in. The secretaries are both dressed in Luftwaffe uniforms, and neither looks up as you walk in, both busy with work on their desks.

The boss' door is basically just a frame around a pane of frosted glass- you wonder where they turned that up, though you suppose this base could be one of the ones the soviets built, and there was just work done after it was taken in the drive east. Inside, you can see her, albeit it barely, with the glass blurring the interior of her office into a fuzz. You don't think she's seen you yet, though she no doubt knows you're down.

That whole bit really bothers me. You get free infinite energy by moving the hidden mass around in a gravitational field. It breaks conservation of mass-energy, which can be handwaved because yay magic, but also breaks conservation of momentum.
So in internet terms, you stick it in a rail gun and shoot an arbitrarily sized mass arbitrarily close to light speed. You also get isolated system propulsion, which doesn't even make sense. Ex: you have a metal shell with a magic pocket and mass that weighs the same. Accelerate the mass backwards and then put it in the pocket, and your room is now moving forward. Move the pocket back to the front, rinse, repeat. You can now move your spaceship without pushing off anything or losing any mass.

>>34918233
So, taking your theory, if there's energy released within hammerspace, where will it go? IS it even possible that so much energy becomes stored in hammerspace?

That's why every thread I wonder what the catch is, even if it's just 'It takes about as much energy from the magic to do that kind of silliness'. I'm fine with magic violating thermodynamics.

>>34918233
Well, it's not getting stored in hammerspace. We've already shown that we don't take weight or turning penalties with storage; you're just accelerating once with the mass hidden, and once with it in effect. It's the same way they get unpowered glider speed records, except instead of extracting energy from wind differentials, you're taking it from...Higgs field differential, I guess? But unlike air, which is made of particles that actually get pushed away, the energy and momentum just appear.

Wiki for gliders: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_soaring
Vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNrEYcHKvIs

The other thing I just thought about was interface mechanics: if you have a wheel on an axle that's half in the pocket, it will keep on accelerating indefinitely (until mechanical failure, that is). You could do that with flywheels in the 100s of tonnes at a powerhouse and just take that to the bank.

[x] Knock- no reason to let these guys think we don't respect our boss.

You knock on the door- two sharp raps against the doorframe.

“Come in.” Ice says, after a second, nodding when you open the door. “I was hoping it was you two. Slider's been up here about a half dozen times today.” She motions to the chairs in front of her desk and the door. “Close that, then sit down.”

You do so, tossing your flight bag on the futon- you wonder how she managed to get that moved here- and sitting down, trying to get comfortable in the wooden chair., which proves to be more difficult than you'd have liked.

“We already heard about Paris.” She says, holding up a newspaper with front-page coverage of the bit of excitement there. “Heard Konstantina and Natalya bailed you out, too. Any idea what happened?”

You shake your head. “Just what they told us there. It was a spetsnaz effort to kill or cripple NATO command and control by knocking out the officers in Paris on leave. Headhunter shit.”

Ice nods. “That's what we'd heard too. I was worried it was directed at you, specifically.” She says, without elaborating- though it's easy to see what she means by it.

“So, welcome to Torun south.” She says, standing up to look out on the flight line- some of the polish fighters are parked on the tarmac, mostly the J35Js it looks like, though you see the smaller frames of a few Tigersharks as well. “This is as frontline as it gets for a major base, warsaw is just about a hundred twenty miles to the southeast of us.”

“That close?” You ask, and she nods.

1/3

“That close. The push has stalled outside of warsaw, they've been having trouble in theater with a regiment of strike bombers targeting fuel dumps, mostly. We may get tasked to deal with them.” She grins. “We'll see how they do, though they operate exclusively at night.”

You nod. “But there's no threat to us here?”

She shakes her head. “There's threats, of course, but this place is a fortress, practically. Torun is one of the biggest concentrations in the AOR. There's two airbases, us and Torun north, and a few army camps in the area. Good rail lines here, plus the river.” She says. “We've got marines, Luftwaffe security troops, and parts of a Polish air assault division here, plus tanks and infantry from the base nearby.”

“what's the air defense look like? I saw one patriot battery.” You say. She nods.

“There's four, plus a company of M163s and a platoon of the new Excalibur.” She says. “Plus, again, Luftwaffe assets and Polish stuff.”

You nod, satisfied you won't be caught on the ground easily. “So what do we need to know?”

2/3

Ice sits. “Our job, nominally, is as the alert squadron. We don't really take tasks like the rest of them, instead we sit on five minute alert and wait for something to pop up nothing else in the AOR can tackle, then we go in.” She says, and you nod- it makes sense.

“But they want to switch it up a bit and put witches in pairs in with the other sorties, that way there's something there in case Soviet witches or superjets do turn up.” She says, then sighs. “I don't like it, but it makes sense- otherwise they could wipe out a sortie and disappear before we showed up to stop them.”

“But it leaves us exposed to being taken out in manageable numbers.” You say, completing her thought.

She nods again. “Exactly. If a threat comes up they'd need us for, and there's only two of us there, it could mean whoever is there is- “ She trails off, and you nod.

“Yeah, I get it. So what are we going to do?” You ask.

“Well, we're going to wait for the commander of JG six to get down here, then we'll see how he wants to do things.” She says. “The host wing is in command of the air contingent at the base, at least until something else gets worked out. It's screwy, but it's worked so far. If he thinks that's a good idea, we'll go with it, if not, we'll work something else out.” She says.

You nod again. “And Us and the twins?”

“We're keeping you free as the QRF. If something happens and we need someone to handle it, you're it.” She says. “We're only planning to give you general taskings if we run out of planes to do missions and one of us can't handle it.”

Nukes were never introduced as an aspect of conventional warfare in this timeline. Hiroshima never happened, MAD never happened, the only nukes ever made were made to counter alien threats.

Sure, the USA or USSR could whip em out on the battlefield if they wanted, but that would be a MAJOR escalation and possibly the introduction of an existential threat to themselves. Nobody has sufficient motivations to nuke anybody in this war and that's how it's going to stay for the foreseeable future.

>>34919917

If that is the case, then the idea of using Chemical and Bio weapons are probably more likely to be used than Nukes. Not that this is an improvement of the situation.

>>34920088
Well there's Unit 731...

Wait. I just had a sinking feeling that 731 was running a program to create Yuriko Omega.

Um, I see it more like they are to use WMDs to deal with witches if one side can't field witches them selves or not enough of them. Most normal troopers can't deal with a witch, much less one in a striker with out having to use MORE DRAKKA to bring one down.

You know I'm not sure WMDs would be an effective counter to witches. They would be totally immune to chemical weapons, like they were in the anime with miasma, and probably resilient to bio weapons by extension. Nukes wouldn't be feasible because nobody possesses an effective platform for delivering a warhead to a small mobile target on land or in the air.

[x] Sounds good to me. Hope the alert shack is comfortable.

You shrug, looking over at Merlin, who nods. “Sounds good to us, I guess.” You say. “Just hope the alert shack is comfortable.”

“It's not too bad, and it's close to chow.” She says. “So at least there's that. Speaking of, c'mon, let's go grab something. I haven't eaten since breakfast.”

You nod- and Merlin's stomach gurgles it's acceptance of the idea, causing her to blush lightly when you and Ice laugh.

“Chow's not bad.” Ice says, narrating as she walks. “It's not great, but it's not bad. If you're not on alert, there's a few places in town we can eat at, too, and more every day, but don't worry too much about that, you'll be on alert.” She says.

“Way to get my hopes up.” You say, laughing.

“Yeah, well. We're not confined to base, but with the air war in this area, we may as well be. You're either on five minute or extended, which is their way of saying as soon as possible. Or on a mission, I guess.” She points at a squat, one story building across the road from a field housing a pair of towed vulcans. “There's the chow hall.”

You nod, and the three of you cut across the field, nodding to the vulcan crews at their weapons- one's strung a poncho across the top of his gunner's seat, probably to keep rain out. “W-what do you t-think of the strikers?” Merlin asks Ice as you pass the guns. “A-are they getting e-easier to operate?”

Ice nods. “Much. We did some practice flights when we were in Germany, I guess it was just the usual new striker problems.” She says, kind of distractedly, then looks down at Merlin. “And I feel like I could fly for days in them.”

Merlin chews her lip, but nods. “T-they were designed to be easier to operate.” She says, after a minute. “I-I'm glad they are.”

You both step into the chow hall- which is full of Luftwaffe tomcat crews, some of whom look up at you and stare for a minute, though most don't.

“The chow hall is a twenty four hour place.” Ice says, walking to the serving line and handing you and Merlin a tray. “We've got a kitchen in our squadron building, though, so we don't eat here too much.”

“Depends on who's cooking.” Slider says, cutting in front of you to grab a tray, then sticking her tongue out at you. “Tabby here can cook eggs, that's about it.”

“The chicken wasn't that bad and you know it.” Ice says. “What do you need, Rachel?”

“Food, mostly.” her friend responds. “Have you showed frank the squadron building?”

Ice shakes her head. “Not yet. I was waiting for Katya to show up before we headed there.”

Slider shrugs. “Fair enough. You'll like 'em, Frank. Only have to share a head with one other person.”

“What, really?” You ask, surprised, as you spear a lump of meat in gravy.

She nods. “Yep. Single bedrooms, shared common area. Two bedrooms split a head between them. Shared kitchen.” She says. “Nice place, kinda reminds me of the visiting witches housing in Japan, remember that place?”

You nod. “Vaguely.”

Well, I disagree in how resilient witches are to Chemical and Bio weapons at this time. We have yet to see them in use against witches. So in the end, we may never know.

>>34920807
>They would be totally immune to chemical weapons
No matter how strong of shield chem or a bio weapon would eventually kill them without NBC kit.

>like they were in the anime with miasma
The way things worked in the show is not a solid foundation to say things work the same here.

WMDs would be just as effective on witches as they would be on normal grunts.

“Well, it's like that.” She says. “We've got two squadron vans assigned, and a little pickup for shit we need from town.” She fishes in her breast pocket for a second and pulls out the keys. “See?”

“Oh god, someone gave you keys?” You ask. “We're all doomed.”

She frowns at you. “Cut it out with the melodrama shit. Here.” She hands them to you. “See? Everything's fine. When's Katya due down?”

Ice shrugs. “Soon,” She says, looking at her watch. “her ride had to divert to pick up a couple more riders in Germany, so there was a delay.”

The four of you fine an unoccupied table and sit, talking quietly. You and Merlin, having not eaten properly since you'd landed back at Barin, practically shovel the food in, while Slider and Ice take it easier. Somehow, they manage to finish around the same time- maybe they took less? You weren't sure.

The four of you then head over to your squadron building- a two story structure nearby. You next door neighbors are a group of quonset huts, with a pair of Gepard SPAAGs parked next to them. The side of your building abuts the road, and a pair of vans and a small pickup line it, all painted a drab grey.

Inside, you run into the twins- both of whom appear to be stalking Joe, who rounds the corner out of sight as you close the door.

“Hi Frank!” One of them- Alyssa, the one with the prosthetic- says.

“We were just talking about you!” Clarissa says.

It's not the soviets fault that the Germans called the panther a medium despite weighing nearly as much as an IS-2.

Heavy tank destroyers get 1 spawn. Jagdpanther is heavy TD.

Matron Dowding effectively released her from the RAF when she was transferred, she's stuck with the squadron now.

>>34921500
Realistically if we're going to ignore historical designations you may as well call the Panther a fucking MBT.

and yet the SU-122P weighs damn near as much, but theres an arbitrary tonnage limit that just manages to give it 2 respawns instead of 1

Here's a commemorative piece of art of the brief and bloody Battle of Murder Mountain, depicting the defense of the Dwarf Home therein vs the grave threat of Lao Shan Long messing up the doors and uh... generally getting blood everywhere really.

It menaces with spikes of stone and bands of MSpaint.

[x] Do I even want to know?

You quirk an eyebrow at them. “Do I even want to know?” You ask.

Alyssa grins. “Well it wasn't so much talking as wondering.”

“Ya know, if your family all shared certain, uh...” Clarissa says.

“Traits?” Her sister supplies.

“Characteristics.” Clarissa responds.

“Ya know, Phys-”

“Yeah, I think I got it.” You say.

“Do you think you do?” Alyssa asks.

You look at her. “You're asking me if I think- ya know what, I'm not even going to answer that.” You say. “Where's my room?”

“Upstairs. And it's ok, we'll just ask Katya.” Clarissa says.

“Or Ice.” Alyssa adds.

“Or Ice. Or slider.”

“What about Brigitte?”

“She kinda creeps me out.”

You leave the twins to their entertainment, silently wishing Joe luck- you suspect he'll either need it, or not even want it. Your room is on the side of the building overlooking the neighboring Quonset huts, along with the pair of SPAAGs parked in the field. Your sea bag is already in the closet, and it doesn't take you long to unpack, though your effects from Paris are still inbound with Katya.

1/2

Overhead you hear the rumble of a heavy jet- probably the 141 Katya's on, though you can't see the runways or flight pattern from here. You're not sure if you like that or not, to be honest- you've always enjoyed watching airbases work, even from the ground.

You take the time to shower and change- noting that the hot water was just running out when you finished- that could be a problem in the morning. Heading downstairs, you're just in time to catch Katya and Slider walking through the door, chatting happily.

“Oh good. Hey Frank, go help with our shit, will ya?” Slider says, brushing past you and nudging you toward the door with a bump from her hip.

“Thank you, Frank.” Katya says, headed for the common room herself.

Outside, Joe and Wendy are grabbing bags from the back of one of the vans- the one parked at an almost 45 degree angle.

“Here, let me help.” You say, shouldering in and grabbing one of the heavy looking duffel bags before Wendy can.

“O-oh. Thank you, sir Bishop.” She says, taking another bag- one that looks equally heavy- and shouldering it. “You don't have to help, Joesph and I can manage.”

He's staying hydrated, wouldn't be surprised if he is hooked up to an IV when they go at it.

Alright I'm gonna pass out, it's been a good thread. Reminds me of Alaska already which was nice, baring the whole almost dying thing.
