&gt; Pre-mission check. Rifle zeroed. Armor plates secured. Whistling birds fully
&gt; loaded. Never go in unprepared.

Going up against a fortified position means I need options. &lt;a href=&quot;/amban-phase-pulse-rifle/&quot; class=&quot;wikilink&quot; data-title=&quot;Amban Phase-Pulse Rifle&quot; data-description=&quot;New acquisition from a black market dealer on Corellia&quot; data-date=&quot;2026-02-03&quot;&gt;Long
range&lt;/a&gt; for overwatch. &lt;a href=&quot;/weapons-are-part-of-my-religion/&quot; class=&quot;wikilink&quot; data-title=&quot;Weapons Are Part of My Religion&quot; data-description=&quot;On the Mandalorian creed and the tools of the trade&quot; data-date=&quot;2026-02-02&quot;&gt;Whistling birds&lt;/a&gt; for
crowd control if guards get involved. Stun cuffs for the target.

Also packing breaching charges. If he runs, I need to cut off escape routes.

Double-checked my &lt;a href=&quot;/the-mudhorn-signet/&quot; class=&quot;wikilink&quot; data-title=&quot;The Mudhorn Signet&quot; data-description=&quot;A symbol earned through sacrifice&quot; data-date=&quot;2026-01-12&quot;&gt;armor&lt;/a&gt; plates. Micro-fractures are

Everything&#39;s ready. Tomorrow night, I move.

This is the way.
