We will need to adapt the the platforms, as the currents in the planet will be our hardest...
What about hovercraft?
Gustav interrupted.
Like the ones used at Holstein in the poles.
Bauer looked at Gustav for a few seconds, his idea seemed like a good one actually. He started feeling slightly embarrased.
Well Herr Gustav...
Come on, platforms? They will be destroyed, adapting them will take months. Deidus is closing in. You heard herr Maister. The best plan is using the hover crafts, cover them in silicon shielding like the Hegemons in the Cobalt cloud in seven.
Bauer stared at Gustav, without saying a word. He felt his face getting warm.
The hover crafts were specifically designed to be hauled on Titanics. I don't see the problem Bauer, diamond plates will never be approved by the board, and...
Bauer stopped for a few seconds and then leaned over Bauer to whisper.
For god's sake stop spilling out industrial research all over the place.
Bauer felt his face burning, it had taken a reddish color. He nodded and looked down for a few seconds. Then he looked at the expedition crew.
Right, so, we want to keep things simple.
He smiled nervously.
Silicon shielding is a special cover developed to prevent particles from getting in our Hegemons when mining inside the cobalt fields in O7. Hegemons are "spray painted", and the particles stick to the silicon which is later washed with Co2, dry ice pellets. I was looking for a more permanent solution, but guess we'll take speed over quality.
Bauer smiled again, still feeling awkward after Woelffen ridiculized him he decided to take his datapad and simulate looking for something.
