 ====== Logistics Phase ======
   * NMPD Briefing File
-    * Perps are aware of police presence. There's a police line with SWAT surrounding the buildings and they've called inside to begin negotiations, but those have been inconsistent.
+    * Hostiles are aware of police presence. There's a police line with SWAT surrounding the buildings and they've called inside to begin negotiations, but those have been inconsistent.
     * The group finished their drilling while the police were en-route, so they control both the vault and the club basement. SWAT landed on the roofs of both buildings and cleared down to the second floors, but avoided the first floors and basements of both buildings to avoid endangering hostages.
+    * Bank management is on-site and can provide access code and keys to the vault and bank at large.
+    * Size of hostile group is estimated at 10, based on NMPD analysis of club camera footage earlier in the evening. No weapons were visible during the footage but in initial negotiator communications the group made unspecific claims that they were armed.
+    * Number of hostages is uncertain as there are club staff missing that aren't seen on camera entering the room, but the range is between 4-20.
+    * The drill used is unknown, but cameras in the vault before they were damaged show a violent shower of white sparks and club staff report a high pitched whine.
+  * Quake Team - Research on remote scanning technology (Scholarship) - A number of technologies exist for remote scanning of interior spaces, but none are beyond prototype status, and most are still in research phases. A non-exhaustive list, but the most likely candidates are:
+    * PSK-HI technology the farthest along, with limited prototype devices rumored to be in use by USC and Federation special forces. It's a passive sensor so can't be easily detected, but requires calibration of/consistent solid surfaces and only detects K-H equipped individuals.
+    * AK-HI technology was in the prototype phase last year but trials did not go well and so most consider it still in the research phase. It uses active K-H detection to theoretically produce true 3D remote viewing across distances, but prototypes experienced a myriad of problems to include spontaneous K-H pollution, 'phantom' objects appearing in the image that didn't exist in reality, and some cybernized individuals could detect the energy from the scan.
+    * BSSI technology is still in research and uses sound waves instead of K-H technology. It is the least funded and uses an active sonar-like 'ping' that most individuals can feel to some degree as a 'buzzing', and the scan gets less precise the farther an object is from a solid surface, but it can detect all types of objects. It also works best if you have multiple detectors on different directions of the rooms to scan.
+  * Cyclone Team - Obtaining PSK-HI prototype from UFPF (Bureaucracy) - Speaking with HICOM you are told that while they would like to help, all devices are actively deployed in combat theaters. You are contacted an hour later by a RANGECOM quartermaster who says a unit just out of maintenance could be 'delayed' on it's way to the front as a favor. You'll have to return the device within 24 hours, however.
+  * Eclipse Team - +1 [deception defense]
 ====== Mission Results ======
+  * Site secured.
+  * Civilians safely rescued.
+  * Covert: Claims of treason by King Five made by hostile leader, evidence of meeting with Touyouan Prime Minister and USC entertainer Gabriella Marcellis procured.
