Reaching the beachhead, Tom hopped down from the tank before meeting up with the Commodore, noticing that Jack was going to clear out nearby resistance which meant it was time for Tom to find Liam. Rounding up a few tanks and a humvee, he noticed it was the same truck Michael found on Libran as he climbed inside; ordering the small convoy to roll out. Setting his helmet onto the dash, he set his rifle down before following behind the tanks, noticing them hitting an excess of 70mph before spotting Liam and the single tank he was escorting; ordering the tanks to setup a perimeter with full on fire. Their short barrels allowed rapid fire as they began tearing through the Centurions 3 at a time, the massive brass casings filled in behind them with the automated machine guns erupting with the shell casings covering the top of the tank in brass. Opening the door, he stepped out as he approached Liam without his helmet on, "So I heard you needed some help," yelling it to him as he projected a map onto the hood, "Jack is pushing to expand the beachhead but we are to head to the coast about 500 miles to our east. From what we understand, the General will be landing there in a few days with the main force there and from our understanding, we'll be marching right into hell," laughing as he spotted raptors dropping crates of supplies for them before breaking off to join the fight overhead, "we'll have only these 10 tanks for now but once we gain some ground the 2nd Company will reinforce us and secure a supply line."

At the Colonel ran for the nearest cover as a Hybrid chucked a grenade.
"Great that's what I need to loose my square on my first outing"
Liam said to no one in particular. Reloading as he heard cannon fire coming from the direction they were heading. Looking up he zoomed in with his HUD. The tanks had the SF insignias and mixed with the tanks there were humvees.
"The calvary has arrived! Move out!"
Quinto shouted making his way over to the lead vehicle. Watching Tom step out he stopped infringement of the man and chuckled.
"Oh my knight in shinning armor"
The man said taking his helmet off laughing at his joke. Looking at the map that Westin brought up and looking at the area they were headed to. It wasn't much for his expertise but he could make it work. Looking to the Major nodding.
"Lets move, we've got a lot of ground to cover and not much time to do it in."
Quinto said hopping in the passenger seat after placing his equipment in the back.

Climbing back into the truck, he signaled the tanks to begin rolling out before ordering drones to be launched to scout ahead as he turned to Liam; "From old Colonial files, there is a city on the east coast which had some importance but now its going to be the Generals landing spot," coming to a stop as the tanks began firing on both Centurions and heavy raiders. Ordering the sergeant onto the top gun, he drove through the gap before hearing the roar of the mini gun as shell casing ran down the windshield and onto the hood. Grabbing his rifle, he opened his door before stepping onto the foot rail before opening fire on targets as he yelled down to Liam; "Time to show off some of those skills, sir."

Sitting studying the map of the city. It seemed to be one of the major harbors when the Colonials occupied the planet. Now it looked dilapidated and abandoned by the Cylons. The satellite image allowed Liam to zoom in on different parts of the city. He was looking for spots for his snipers to perch. A loud thunderous bang rang out as the tanks fired upon a heavy raider. Dropping the tactical pad has he reached for his sniper rifle. Seeing Tom get out and stand on the rail then call out to him. Stepping out of the vehicle, he laid down so some of his body was under the humvee. Searching for a skin job, after a few second he spotted a Four model. Squeezing the trigger the round sailed and caught the Cylon in the temple. Pulling the bolt back he quickly fired several rounds in just a couple of minutes. He only missed on target but got it with the second attempt.

Expanding beachhead by 10 miles but Harperson has already made contact via astro lab, he'll be here in a few days, he's escorting the 2 orbital defenses that would be assisting us this campaign," closing the channel just as they came under fire from Centurions. Taking cover, be began firing once more as he noticed that the Nomad beside him was dead which meant the cylons pounded the man till it cut through their new armor; not bothering to order the Siege tanks to assist since he needed this little oasis cut down and the tanks could do the job quickly.

He only missed on target but got it with the second attempt. Getting down to his final magazine, he noticed the Cylons weren't stopping and the tanks couldn't keep up as he called in for an airstrike from the Terran raiders but instead it got answered from the SF pilots who had just unpacked the A10 Warthogs. Giving his coordinates according to the grid system that seemed to always work, he got an ETA before opening fire on the Centurions once more; setting his rifle down onto the seat before rushing to the back of the truck to unpack a rifle that he was a bit skeptical on but he had no choice at this point. Opening the black case, he pulled out a sniper rifle which was one of the few that had the belt fed option meaning he could fire it till the barrel was glowing red which he didn't mind but the bullets were made to take out tanks. Climbing on top of the truck, he laid down before opening fire on the Centurions but didn't have to re-adjust thanks to the near non-existence of the recoil but it didn't last long as the Warthogs bombed the area; taking out the Centurions and opening the path to them.

*Heading closer to Jack crushing Tin's skin Job's and villages and the big tank roll's through a factory. Ground troops rushing in fighting and killing everything in sight* "Jack were here, what the plan?"Pulling the dog tags off his fallen, he tapped his radio as he took off his helmet to warn both Liam and Tom of the Cylons ability to punch through their new armor before walking over to Cotter; "For now, we plan on creating a beachhead before moving west to the coast so we can secure the old Colonial shipyards which is now the Cylon raider shipyard. We take the shipyard and we can cut off their resupply of raiders thus our pilots would have control of the airspace and it would also put a dent in the supply of raiders for the Cylon fleet which is good," tearing off his armor to reveal his desert fatigues as one of his Captain's handed him a vest as well as his standard gear. Slipping it all on, he wrapped his bandana around his neck before turning to his own men; "Catch up with Siege tanks and push west, we'll be right behind you," turning to Cotter as other Nomads began to unpack the gunships, "I've got Liam and Tom pushing East to the LZ that the General will be landing at.

Hearing Jack's warning, he knew the Cylons would have eventually figured out who to punch through the armor but didn't expect them to do this so soon; coming to a stop as he started stripping off the armor. Keeping his suit on, he slipped on his DC shoes followed the rest of his tactical gear before tossing the armor into the back as he slipped back on his hat; "Cylons figured how to kill us now," slipping on his sunglasses before punching it to catch up with the tanks as they came to a stop. Getting out, he went to talk with the tank Commanders before coming back to the truck, "We've got mountains up ahead and they have to go through them but we'll be traveling through the valley between them which means they want the truck to follow and get us in the mountains to provide cover not to mention this could take a while," ordering one of the Marines to take the wheel while he picked up one of the M107's as he placed it on his back before moving to the outside to hold on for a bit till he found a suitable spot to be dropped off at.
Even in his black suit, he wasn't even dressed for war even with his tactical gear on over it but the mountain air would rush through him which sort of made his unique suit worth it as he dropped off the truck to take up a position behind them on the first rock face. Slipping in his earpiece, he rushed up the side, using the trees as leverage as he pulled himself before taking a position about a thousand feet over them; propping his sniper rifle up against a tree branch while surveying the area. Taking out a few Centurions that he could see, he moved onto zoom ahead knowing he'll have to run all this afterwards which meant he was going to be at least a few hours or at the very least a day behind the convoy but it didn't bother him.

"We've got mountains up ahead and they have to go through them but we'll be traveling through the valley between them which means they want the truck to follow and get us in the mountains to provide cover not to mention this could take a while," *Pulling over climbing out of the Jaeger hoping down climbing in the buggy* "Ok guy we have mountain's, take the tank's and head through the valley."*Checking the map's* "Ok you guy may be ambushed so get ready, there's noway there getting into our tank's. Use forces I will take the men up into the mountain's onto the trail's. Smaller tanks may fellow, Terran fighters will be in the air. Aright push it people we have a job to do."*Revving the buggy speeding up to Tom's truck matching speed, seeing he wasn't there. Dropping back looking back at a trail then movement* "Tom The beach is secure, I got ground troops in the mountain's covering the valley entrance for the tanks. You wanna hope on there's a gun on-top if you want"

Tapping his radio as he spotted Cotter's forces through his scope before taking down a skin job before it could raise its RPG as he tapped his radio, "I've got the pass covered just get the tanks through and I'll catch up," he was in perfect cover and wasn't going to sacrifice his cover now just to catch up. He knew the risks of peering through his scope for too long but didn't care cause a single Cylon could fire an RPG that would stop a tank and thus destroy the convoy which meant keeping his eye out. Firing at another Centurion, he could hear his gunshot ring out in the valley before ejecting his magazine to pull out a fresh one from his holster; reloading as he went back to the scope to search the mountains for targets.

"Ok Tom watch your six"*Revving up the engines rolling on up the path hanging a hard right, hitting a smooth rock. Leaping the buggy in the air Landing right on-top 5 Centurion's with anther RPG crushing them. Reaching over shifting gear's kicking up dirt speed off, catching up watching 2 man die before my eyes. Reaching up hitting the roof as tunnel-rat fires off a round into the skinjob chest blowing her back 10 feet rotating the weapon firing off some geos rounds into the heart of the factory. Shoving my weapon out the window squeezing the trigger as 3 Cylon try to explode a rockfall in the valley* "Guy's watch it do there, watch that tank guy the wheel's are starting to rub the wall's. If needed open the back door and take some of the convoy"*Signaling tunnel rat to take over as I hope into the other seat opening the roof, hitting a leaver as the seat joints me up into the air. Pulling out a grenade tossing it into a rock bunker burning the enemy out. Flying over the rocky cliff, reaching out as I pass-by a fallen tree grabbing a branch. Swing forward letting go arching my back, curving my leg up and over landing out a ledge. Grasping a pistol running down the path, leaping off on a seven knocking us off a cliff 10 feet onto one of the tanks as we then fight.*

Arriving a bit early, the 10 SF Battlestars took up position around the planet as they unpacked the orbital guns, launching the remaining SF forces with millions of pieces of equipment but not at the intended LZ on the east coast but on top of the Nomad beachhead. Ramsey wasn't going to land into unknown territory without the bulk of his fighting force, popping out of the pod as it landed and putting on his helmet, starting across the sand as his engineers began moving out the massive sheets of armor which would make up the outer wall while the turrets were being moved into position outside the base. They had a million things to do and were doing it all to ensure if there was any counter attack then they wouldn't be caught with their pants down, tapping his radio as his other officers landed; "I'm recalling all teams now! Its time we get bloody and well got a plan to do just that."

Landing on the home world, she wondered if the Nomads saved any for the rest of them as she climbed out of her pod with her M4 in hand, standing aside as the construction began on the base but noticed the General standing by his pod waiting for everyone. Walking on over, she stood by the old man knowing there was nowhere else she could really go for now, strolling through her tactical pad to notice that Liam was here and even more Jack's second in command. She had some feelings for him but only for his safety, he was a bit too boring for her and even now it took a lot to get her into bed or anywhere else for that matter; holding onto her rifle as she let those feelings past. Spotting the Nomads, most likely from Commodore Thrax's unit walking in which could only mean he wasn't too far along before the Generals forces landed where on the other hand it could be a while till Liam's and Cotter's forces would return from their little hunting trip.
