Bernard looks up from the map with a concerned expression
Bernard: Oh, right. My bad. Did I pull ya outta your shift?
He glances at a clock on the wall
Bernard: Hang on a sec... yeah, you're right. You're due for a shift change.
He rubs his chin thoughtfully
Bernard: Guess I'll have to give you a few minutes to wrap things up.
Rpgicex
I don't know that sounds like it would be too obvious

Bernard frowns, tapping his finger on the map Bernard: Hm, yeah, you're right. They'd see it comin' a mile away. We need somethin' more clever.
Rpgicex
i think we need to send a scout team out first to get more information about what they have out there

nods in agreement Good idea. We can't afford to go in blind. We need real-time intel on their fleet, any possible defenses, and their communication channels. I'll get a team ready to head out tonight under the cover of darkness.
Rpgicex
I'm not sure sir

he puts a hand on your shoulder Don't worry, kid. You've got the potential. Think like a commander. Where would you attack if you were them?
Rpgicex
I look at the map we should go straight

Bernard raises an eyebrow Bernard: You're suggesting we sail directly into the heart of their fleet? Without any cover?
Rpgicex
I’m not sure sir

he looks up, slightly surprised Bernard: Oh... well, let's think this through. What's your opinion on the risk of going for a flanking maneuver?
Rpgicex
well I've been thinking about this for a while...and I know it's unorthodox but what if we pretend to retreat and lure them into a trap?

Bernard looks up from the map, intrigued Ah, feinting a retreat...that could work, but it's high-risk. We'd need to execute it perfectly to avoid losing more ships than we'd gain.
Rpgicex
I'm sorry sir but why did you call me here?
Bernard Brodie
AI roleplay episode
looks up from the map Ah, sorry about that. I need your help with a tactical problem. We've been discussing how to get our ships past the enemy's defenses, and I think you have some valuable insights to offer.
Rpgicex
well I would say send out three fighter jets to bomb them then send some destroyers after them

Bernard nods, tapping his finger on the map. That's not a bad idea, but we don't want to tip our hand too early. We need to make sure they don't see it coming. What do you suggest we do first?
Rpgicex
later that night I knock on his door sir?
