| We could ‘conquer’ the Wayback by blasting into it with an untethered warp then just send in the hoovers to gather up whatever’s left of the planets. A diamond in the rough is still worth the same floating in space after all. |

| Sy Corp has suggested opening a path into the Wayback without an exit-gate. I’d like to remind people that absent an exit-gate the kinetic energy of what comes out might decimate the locals to put it lightly. |

| If they don’t wish to repair the exit-gate then we should shut down our side of the chute. Leave the Wayback where it wants to be: in its own filth. |

| To protect possible long term mental damage from Core Worlds estrangement it is perhaps best that this mission is strictly volunteer only no? |
TCR Congressman

| There will be no extraction. |
TCR (REDACTED)

| We must admit reunification will be one-way for a time. Surely we cannot allow the free travel of Waybackers throughout the Core Worlds right? |

| The future of Mars depends upon this Wayback Mission. Concluding this present barbarism shall end a past one. |
Martian Delegate

| The Era of Estrangement rarely includes the atrocity of the Earth-Mars peace agreements. Only the Wayback receives proper focus it seems. |

| To us that Wayback Mission is a ragtag sort, but to Waybackers they will probably be as godly as the colonists were to those savages who had yet seen horse or ship. |

| A couple of volunteers might not look like much but believe you me: those Marines will cut through that system like shit through a tinhorn. |

| I think there's something else there the TCR wants. Like deep dark conspiracy shit man. |

| Mercenary enterprises. Fissiparous mini-megacorps. Delusional planetarists. The Wayback is filled with parties strongly disinterested in ending the Era of Estrangement. |

| Any maintenance error with the warp catch-nets and silos is to be a crime equal to that of genocide. |

|
| Using the Wayback warp gate is like playing on a rusty swingset. You can have your fun but you know those squeaks are going to stop and they are going to stop very fast and very hard. |
TCR Engineer

| Our predecessors set those gates up. To leave them in a state of dis-repair like the Wayback does is an engineering atrocity! |

|
| The Wayback Mission makes military sense. We are at a point in human development where we must consider threats beyond the stars and if we are weak in one area then we are vulnerable as a whole. |
TCR Army Commander
|
| Naturally our intelligence has put together a list of names worthy of SL Status Membership. If push comes to shove manpower will not be an issue. |

| Core Worlders and Waybackers are highly suspicious of one another but eventually both parties must admit to uncomfortable truths if they are to work together. |

| The modularity of the TCR Impetus makes it a flexible fighting force and quite suitable to the Wayback Mission's conditions. |
TCRN Assessment

| Mars is fully vested in the mission's outcome which brings us full circle for that red shithole was the first 'Wayback' we ever had. |

| The TCR Marines are the tip of our spear but we must all admit the volunteers for such a mission will not be the tip of the spear's tip of the spear. |

| Previous reunification campaigns have afforded us a wealth of experience. This Wayback Mission will no doubt be our most efficient. |

| The whole project is a clear attempt to centralize financial and manufacturing needs so that a centrifuge of tax-hungry projects are constantly spinning. |

| I feel like bringing the Waybackers to the Core Worlds would probably be like bringing an army of drunk uncles to the holidays. |
