//Yes, thank you.// Blaze is more than ready to extend a hand for it to jump back.

Once in the courtyard, she pulls aside to add her own fire. Disappointingly the bridge to their opponents is littered with great stone blocks. They'll give cover and break a mounted charge equally well. There are a couple of elevated ridges either side of the courtyard... But they don't actually connect to the access platorm, which is what she's looking for. //I'm guessing these are minotaurs. Hmm- could stash the Pike under that bridge for a minute. They can't shoot there.//

The guards return fire with blasts of strange matter that arc and hit like mortar shells. They too are separating with slow, regular steps, covered by a purple-flaring energy shield. Luckily, the Wolves really love their heavy guns. Those Pike cannons take a quick toll, prompting guttural electronic grumbles. The guards will start pulling behind cover almost immediately.
