Oooh, I like your way of thinking, but they have no ship.
Offcourse, if mines are programmed to ignore escape pods, they might still work ?
I seem to remember Iri mentioning that their ship was small and mostly ignored by the mines ?
Hmmm ... I wonder if the Mini Giraffe's can "talk" to the mines ane convince them to let them trough ?
Aren't they orbiting a planet? But I guess it might very well be one with hostile environment.
But... what if there's some way to disable the mine field? I mean there has to be some way for non-psychers to get to the station. Or not and that's the whole point of having a random displacement minefield.
I'm guessing it's not his tactical guidance that'll come in handy... Maybe he needs to use his cuteness to distract one of the hunters, or some of the mooks, at just the right moment? :P
