1. Team A waits for the distraction, and have their sights on Kidston if possible. Team B is imposed a time limit to perform their diversion. Just in case, should both teams have a radio operator in an encrypted channel to inform when the diversion is on?
- On one hand, it could simply be a click of their comm channels twice to begin their Op, three if something goes wrong.
1a. If something goes wrong with the distraction, Team A will probably have to enter by force on both the installation and assembly line. When this happens, it goes to point 3cd.
- On another, perhaps simply seeing what happens back in their location could be better. Using radios could be a little risky if the Malnosso catch the frequency, even if the teams are using an encrypted channel.
2. Kidston is neutralized, preferably by tranquilizer darts, unless Loki sods something up and he only uses her wings, or the team is forced to reprogram the wing scanner.
2a. If Kidston is rendered unconscious but alive, she could be stuffed into a crate or closet as they move in to the assembly line.
2b. If Kidston is killed, Loki would be pretending to be her, though... he'd probably risk being left in some location until he escapes by his own means.
(Of minor note, Daisy... wouldn't be too troubled by the death of one of the scientists, given they're part of the enemy. Superior officers, squadmates, civilians, threats, and all that. She just thinks keeping Kidston unconscious would be better in case there are more safety locks needing her alive in some manner.)
2c. If the situation turns far too difficult to deal with either capture or execution of Kidston, the team would be focused on cracking the wing scanner.
2d. Daisy is against this, but if all else fails, they'd put explosives on the door, and perform their task with an extremely low amount of time.
3abc. In the assembly line, the more important sabotages would consist in lightly tampering with the perpetual battery so it stops being one, weakening the joints and the alloy (reducing the carbon density), and programmers could disable a number of reactions, or even just introducing a handful of lines that could make it prone to glitch sometimes.
Preferably, only the more basic tasks could be done, both for time and subtlety in the droids' defects.
(A few suggestions: in programming? Disabling a line is less dangerous than deleting it. And patches in software are called that, because they're put over the original program to correct things. Even a single wrong line of code could have repercussions on the operation of the droids.)
3cd. With the attention forcing the door open might cause, or the lack of time, Team A would make only the most basic forms of sabotage in the assembly: Battery tampering, slight alloy changing, and a handful of lines of code.
4. Team A escapes the facility, preferably evading the sight of everyone, sets a scout ahead in case they are being followed, and reaches the extraction point.
