A good number of Tadath security/defense forces have been eliminated due to the Noghri - not an entire city's worth. Just enough to get them through numerous sectors unnoticed.
And as mentioned above, one Noghri could probably take out a squad of troops alone easily. Four Noghri coming in behind enemy lines unnoticed? That's a nightmare. :P
And yes, the majority of those mercs will be in the main district of city - the most populated area (more civilians = more casualties).

For those of us who have to take on the Noghri: Stava"The Noghri fighting style known as Stava has spread throughout the galaxy. Unlike some species-specific martial arts (eg. Defel Hunter style), the Noghri have been able to teach their particular style of fighting to Humans, Twi’lek, and even Wookiees. The style is very physical, often bringing the combatants into close contact. Stava combat utilizes full-body tackles, throws, and full-arm blows, as well as the powerful jabs and snap kicks commonly used in instances where close combat is ineffective. Stava is a quick and dangerous style, and in unarmed combat an opponent using it can often act before the target has a chance to react." From our own wiki

One thing I'd like to add about the Noghri: None of us have been exposed to them before. They were assassins for Lord Vader, but even then they didn't receive a lot of exposure. DO NOT say "oh look a noghri." then launch into knowing all about their past and their abilities. (Technically Angel could, see the RAIDER story "Bilbringi Surprise" for more info, but I'm just going to have him disregard that knowledge for now.) These things are going to take us by surprise and probably beat the living piss out of us for awhile. You think it was coincidence that Cosmic sent two squads after four Noghri and gave us two weeks to write about it? Hardly.

Raiders are to keep Frozt and the Noghri from escaping. Its Black Jack and Jesters' job to engage.
Besides, no matter sheer luck, Dante, you wouldn't be able to kill the creature with a lucky shot. We wounded one, and we still can't kill it.
Bah, I'll post on the story when everything with Raiders, and specifically Paladin has been fixed. because right now I am lost and I don't have a clue whats going on.

...Could even a Noghri survive blaster rifle shots at point blank range, pistol shots to the chest, a knife in the back, and repeated applications of vibroswords? They aren't Gen'dai...Also, this one was wounded and supposedly killed earlier. Still, I'll change it if it's really that much of a problem.

Yes, it is a problem. Jester/Blackjack are engaging the Noghri and Frozt. RAIDERS job is to disable transport / prevent their escape. Those are two completely different objectives.

I'm confused as to why anyone has a vibrosword anyways.

And there's the fact...Noghri don't use guns. We gave links to the Noghri wiki page for a reason.

Well, my idea was that they were trophies from its victims...Still, the mission was none too clear.

Dante...you're complaining the mission that your squad is not supposed to be doing, isn't clear enough? Angel and Tanus are the guys running that side, let them worry about it. You guys should stick to your objective.

As a reminder, the scheduled end-date for the HSC is January 6th. Stories should be wrapped up by that date (if squads end up completing their objectives before then, that works as well - just keep in mind that if your squad objectives are completed sooner than another squad's objectives, then that squad continues posting [and receiving points] while yours doesn't).
Bottom line: keep track of other squads' progress and plan accordingly.

Ja'k Frozt is now the property of Jester squad. Two Noghri are still on their feet fighting. One is engaged in combat with Jester, save for Gio/Sam (who have Frozt), and Wicket/Jori (who we left with Blackjack to deal with the final Noghri).

Black Jack, Jester, dont deliver Frozt to the command. I'm halfway done with my post but have to go, and I have a very specific goal with Frozt that Rizzit and Cosmic approved. If I counted right, all the nogrhi are dead and Frozt is captured. Jesters are done tambien. I'll post when I get back from my trip with mu family, should be in a few hours.
Hope this is okay with you guys :S
PS: Figured out whats wrong with my laptop, its fixable, I suspect that when I change my AC adapter my connection might improve as well since it has been affecting everything on my laptop, even software. So meh.
