So... cutting through the bulkhead between the Arterial Corridor's East and the Vault Security Corridor would be almost as bad as trying to cut through an outer bulkhead... although not as difficult as trying to cut into the vault that way, hmm?<br/><br/>I'd think that by using a power fist (and other power weapons we might have), we could minimize the damage as well as the noise involved, but it sounds like it'd take a long time.  If we could do so without exposing the area to space or creating any other nasty side effects, however, the time involved might be worth while... as hand cutting a 5 foot wide hole is probably a bit less damaging then using the ship's guns and tractors to just yank the Vault out of the station.... (a, what, 100 meter wide hole MIGHT be, say, about 3600 times more damaging to the station... and that's just factoring the damage 2 dimensionally...)<br/><br/>In any case, what we do is going to depend on Cortez at this point.  Darius is pretty pissed off about the "professionals" crack, but he's too new to command to keep making a fuss if he doesn't know whether his commander is on his side or not.
