OOC: Nope, lead lined gear won't kill you. It'll be heavy and reduce mobility (and would necessitate wearing any communications equipment in unshielded parts), but that's pretty much it.

IC: Upon detection of the apparent slipspace drive malfunction, a single Blade of Deception-class stealth cruiser is sent to investigate. Five Corsair-class heavy battlecruisers are placed on standby to warp in and assist once the contact had been investigated.

The stealth cruiser approaches, cloaked, and finds the apparent remains of whatever had warped in. It begins scanning the wreckage for any potentially useful salvage that might offer an insight into the UAC's technology.

On the ground, Prometheus forces are mobilized to counter the UAC incursion. Eight Shredder hovertanks, six Vampire fighter craft, and two Gargoyle gunships head toward the site of the attack, while within the facility alarms activate to call for an evacuation. Three squads of standard infantry are also dispatched, with the full force set to arrive in ten minutes.

The mind control devices hidden in a perimeter around the facility's walls turn on, but the lead-lined armor of the UAC ODSTs offer them a measure of protection. The UAC troops start feeling the effects of the devices' primary wave immediately, but instead of dropping unconscious as intended, they merely receive a headache and start hearing a rather irritating ringing in their ears. The secondary wave, meant to implement the neural reprogramming (in this case, a standardized "drop your weapons and respond to all questions" program), is similarly weakened. Instead of controlling the UAC troops, its only effects are to briefly and mildly confuse some of them.

Meanwhile, the Prometheus fighters arrive at the factory and begin strafing the UAC troops with their gatling lasers, with the pair of gunships visible in the distance.
