Team One had two armored vehicles, Tom’s Ranger Tactical Command Vehicle and a Ranger Drone support vehicle. Neither the command car nor the DSV was rated for frontline combat, and they had no escort, which made going into a riot zone worrisome. In close urban confines, the front line was anywhere the hostiles happened to be holed up. Even a heavily armored panzer was vulnerable to an ambush under such conditions, and Team One didn’t have the infantry support that tankers like Black insisted were necessary for employing tanks in urban environments. But they did have Furlann; the mage’s astral vision was their protection against surprise. Furlann might not be able to stop an ambush, but she ought to be able to give them warning. In fact, Tom was counting on it.
