Chopper, as for your point about those Keepers being with us the whole time, did you not read my post? I did state that they hung around the Outcast group probably anticipating an incursion into enemy territory. Considering they see us as their little 'pawns', they would be clever to use us in such a way that we take them to viable targets.
As for your other two points, they aren't really on topic for this particular thread. I agree the whole flying into stuff is bad RP on both sides, so why don't we all just stop it, and as for tractor beams and all that, it's not something we're discussing here.
