The comm chatter rose as Primeval troops landed and the battle began. Betna pounded twice on the roof of the Shadlaar's cab he was riding in and pointed towards the appropriate hangar bay.
"They're landing in that direction," he said over comms. The driver nodded once and the truck lurched forwards with its brothers, the four vehicles moving to the designated hangar door.
The first three moved up and turned, bringing the vehicles alongside the rear of the sandbagged emplacements. The Mandalorian sharpshooters disembarked as did Betna, the men rushing to the sandbagged barricades. Some stayed back, unhooking the ARGH barricades from the Shadlaars and started pushing them into position. As the trucks emptied and were unhooked from the barricades, they drove back into the hangar to relative safety.
"Into positions, let's go!" shouted Betna, moving along the position with his rifle in hand as he made sure things moved smoothly.
"Get those barricades set and settled, ner vode! We've got a war to win, here!"
The Mandalorians shoved the pushed the metal barricades into their proper places until they fit flush with the sandbags. Once done, the repulsors were turned off and the density projectors were activated, turning the barricades from heavy metal walls into
very heavy metal walls.
As the last barricade was put in place and his men finished settling in, Betna received Anija's comm message.
"Understood," he responded. He had thought she had gone out earlier to run errands at the homestead, but apparently had been wrong. Then again, it had been dark in their room.
"Be safe, cyar'ika."
He thought he should say something more, but cut the line before the silence could drag out any longer. She needed to focus, not listen to him expand on wishing her to be safe even more. Hell,
he needed to focus. She would be okay and, if she wasn't...
He'd burn every Primeval world he could get his hands on.
"Remember, hold your fire until they hit the minefields," he said, settling into a small niche overlooking the battlefield. It was nestled into a corner between two sandbag emplacements. His back was to the bag-wall and his rifle over more of the canvas sacks. He set out a few clips of extra ammunition next to him for easier reloading and peered down the scope of his rifle.
He'd fought Sith and Force users before on various fields. They had one key advantage as a marksmen unit. Force users could deflect, block, or dodge incoming fire with their enhanced senses, reflexes, and precognition, but all those things required the Force. After being married to a Force sensitive for nearly a decade and a lifetime of training in hunting them, he knew their weakness in this theater of war.
They needed to sense the shot. Sense the trajectory. Sense the attack. With the Brahl in the hangar and the bubble of Force negation spread out by the ysalamir inside the machine, Betna and his men were undetectable in the Force. This meant that until the shot cleared the bubble itself, they couldn't detect his attack's origin, which meant that with the projectile weapons they carried, the enemy Sith would have less than a second to react, if not fractions of fractions of a second.
As he worked the bolt on his rifle and loaded the first bullet of many for this engagement, Betna gave one more order as his scope passed over the Primeval soldiers barely a kilometer away.
"Partaylir: kyr'amur Darjetii sol'yc."

("Partaylir: kyr'amur Darjetii sol'yc." - "Remember: kill [the] Sith first")
