Darn it, the Alliance Brass let the Reapers into their pants. This is unfortunate.

I personally can't wait for Operation: Seduction Reduction to commence.

 Ok, I lol'd...hard...as hard as Hackett on a Banshee

This is what happens when you get your intelligence from little bleeping balls.

On Tuchanka, we get our intelligence the old fashioned way. With a section of rebar, a captured enemy scout, and blatant disregard for the toothless treaties protecting enemy forces from interrogation under duress.

Give me a few hours with a Cerberus Nemesis, and I'll have your answers for you. They're the squishy ones, she should talk in no time.

While I admire your... enthusiasm, I'm pretty sure it was Reaper intel we were after this time.

Still, what happens on Tuchanka stays on Tuchanka I guess.

If Cerberus doesn't have intel on what the Reapers are up to with these odd troop movements and bizarrely accurate preparations, I'll eat my Claymore.

There is no problem you can't solve by beating the solution out of someone in the know.

Besides, have you ever tried to interrogate a Cannibal? The only thing you get out of it is the satisfaction of breaking bones under repeated blunt force trauma.

I am very disappointed so many lives were lost during this op due to indoctrinated agents. We need to root them out as quickly as possible so future operations can go more smoothly

Fake.


.......This is fake right.......... right?

Intel gained by effective espionage is far more effective than torturing an enemy soldier who not only is trained to resist such... crude techniques, but is also fitted with subdermal flashbangs that'll blow their head and yours half off the moment you try them. And krogan hardheadedness doesn't help one bit against a high-explosive charge. In fact, it often worsens them, kind of like a grenade. Messy.

Plus, the drones can translate that stupid goddamn beeping noise that they make, and fists can't do that.
...Neither can sniper rifle bullets, but I do admit there is a certain... pleasure, to shutting them up with an effective countersnipe. But that's when I'm fighting and they're currently trying to put holes in the reckless krogan I'm often paired with on Tuchanka.

A non-reckless krogan, on the other hand... They're a dream to fight alongside, because they know exactly how long I can hide behind them for to blow the face off of that Phantom who's giving them grief. And then they run into a squad of geth troopers and score a strike.

I never was good at Geth Bowling.

Sooooo, is this legit?

You have a point about the Cannibal, and Cerberus for that matter, for sure.  But so does Operative Kopper here:

Don't get me wrong-- I love throwing grenades right in Cerberus Agents' faces, but it does make interrogation tougher.

If you don't take out the flashbang, then yeah, it's messy. You know the trick to dealing with the occular flashbang? Rip out their eyes with your bayonet before you take 'em prisoner. You got a Salarian with you, they'll survive it, usually. If not, there's always the next one.

I miss the old cyanide pills they used to have. Countering THOSE were fun. I remember a few members of my Krantt competing to see who could knock the most teeth out of someone's mouth with one punch, without breaking the thing. Sure, we'd usually break the capsule, but I remember when I scored a full mouth of teeth with one punch, and the poor son of a pyjak never got a drop of his poison. He wasn't much for interrogating, what with the inability to talk and the crippling pain of multiple skull fractures, but nobody's broken that record of mine.

But hey, you get the phantom to put up that little shield of hers, and I'll smack her into the wall of the next room. I got no problem playing well with others like that.

But we're getting off track. This little operation of Hackett's was flawed from the start.

That reminds me, I need to calibrate my sticky grenades so that they make that high-pitched whine from those 21st century Halo games Urdnot Kretch got me hooked on. Only when they actually stick someone, though - so that the enemy aren't alerted to back off.

...I think Garrus still owes me a favour, that guy can calibrate anything, even if his sniping doesn't quite meet the standard the extranet memes say it does.

Even if you do manage to disarm their countermeasures, they're still trained to resist any kind of pain (hell, their implants may make them not feel extreme amounts of it, I do sometimes dissect them like some kind of cackling mad scientist and their nerve endings are... strange.) and the squishy ones are unintelligible.

But I guess, as a krogan, it's hard to sneak around. Just let us stealthier operatives into their bases, and you get fresh, juicy stuff that's 100% authentic and not tainted by the fact that, if you torture someone, they say anything to get you to back off (or end their misery, as you probably do)

Just watch your sides. I've lost count of the number of krogan who've had both their hearts turned to mush by recklessly charging a Phantom, getting sliced and then skewered by her friend. Hell, vanguards of other species, too. Everyone seems to forget that Cerberus instakillers need to attempt a melee attack to get into position for murder.

But you sound experienced. I'm confident you'll at least pick up the spare.

I'll agree with you there. But at least we're beginning to root out the indoctrinated saboteurs. We didn't know of them, and that's why this Op failed.

Have you noticed that since the operation ended, we get lots more drones?

Does dis proof IT?

You're a hero to your people.  Don't let any one tell you otherwise.

But back to the subject, I agree.  Flawed operation from the start.  No extra ammo, shield regenerators, medi-gel, missles, or hell, even drones on a drone escort mission?  Something is definitely up.

We're the N7 Ops-- not some damned diversionary meat-squad to be tossed blind into combat.

I handed off my supplies for the mission to the frontliners on Earth's resistance front. Afterward, I shared my medical expertise. I assumed the reason for that clause was a shortage of such gear.

Bah, Susan knew something was up!

Someone's eating some grenades, and I'm pretty sure it's High Command.

Nice try Bernard Plim. Nice try.

[JChaos]

I'm not gonna deny it. Getting told to lay off the medigel for the operation hurt. I dig new scars as much as the next guy, but after facing down a half dozen marauders, I was aching for some gel.

If I find out we got lied to, I'm going to throw the commander out the airlock. Physically. Through the bulkhead.

I can survive the decompression. Can he say the same?

Depends on the Commander, I guess.  I've heard some things about Commander Shepard that seem downright... I dunno, mystical.

I'd pay fat credit-money to watch you hurl an indoctrinated officer through a bulkhead, though.  Good fat credit-money.

I met that guy, once.  It was hard to resist the urge to punch him out, but I resisted.  He broke down when I played sympathetic with him. 

Then he asked for credits.  Sad guy.

sounds like that dude...that has been walking around with a gallon sized gas jug...asking people to spare a buck or two so he can get GAs at the gas station cuz his car broke down. He must have a crappy car...cuz his car has broken down everyday for the past 3 years...in the same spot.
