Arcturus was pleasantly surprised when Faye shook his hand, and noted that Merel was being cautious as well. As Team Sigma followed Halvard to the hanger, he wondered what trouble she obviously had in her previous posts. When they arrived, he cleared his throat to get their attention. He pointed to a grey Viking MS getting the Sigma symbol painted onto it by the work crews. it had an Beam rifle on it's rear skirt's weapon rack, an 4-tube missile pod hanging from the right shoulder and a 2-tube missile pod on the right forearm, an shield on the left arm that percluded an shoulder module due to it's size, and e-pac recharge racks on the hips and lower legs, the latter being configured for larger ones, indicating that an heavy beam cannon was inside the storage container mounted to it's back.

"That one's mine. As you can see, I prefer beam weapons, mostly because they're better suited to long-duration missions, due to being able to refill ammunition from the MS' power supply and the fact they normally have better range than ballistic guns. This is good, because the more distance you have between you and the enemy, the less likely you are to get hit and need repairs.", he explained.
