Pirate Hideout Discovered

We have found a covert underground base on … bearing the insignia of the Black Needle. We believe that this is an external base used by the piracy group, isolated from their other operations. The next piece of the Celestial Chart must be stored here, likely alongside other riches and baubles. We could easily begin orbital bombardment of the base, but this may give the Black Needle the time they need to call for reinforcements. On the other hand, a rapid deployment of our ground forces would more swiftly seize the base, giving little time for the enemy to respond. A more clandestine approach would be to hack into the base's computer systems and secure the Celestial Chart piece in a daring heist.
