*1/ALEPH*

Achilles commenced action attacking hostile target, designated "Ratnik", striking a key system with a critical hit.

Thorakitai 3, equipped with a light rocket launcher, failed to harm targets he engaged, a "Minuteman" and a "Veteran Kazak", surviving return fire.

The Myrmidon Hacker failed to harm the Ratnik with her fire, but the Ariadnan operator apparently lost nerve and moved away, allowing her to freely activate the antenna she had moved upon.

Achilles moved towards the Tech-Coffin, failing to harm the Ariadnan remote, "Urugan" type Traktor Mul.

Thorakitai 2, equipped as a Forward Observer, unfortunately was killed in an attempt to support Achilles.

The Dakini moved to provide some cover for the Myrmidon Hacker.

*1/Ariadna*

Ariadnan counterattack began, with Achilles surviving a hit from a "Blackjack".

Thorakitai 3 survived numerous exchanges of fire with distant enemies, including previous Minuteman and Veteran Kazaks, plus a "Mormaer", including two spearheaded efforts.

The Blackjack was hit engaging Achilles but survived unscathed. Achilles then survived two hits from the Blackjack, but unfortunately took a severe hit from the Ratnik's launchers and was disabled.

The Blackjack engaged Thorakitai 1, who survived the hits, as the Minuteman failed to harm Thorakitai 3

**2/ALEPH**

The Minuteman hit Thorakitai 3 as he tried to engage the Ariadnans, but the Thorakitai survived the hit. He was less fortunate when the Mormaer and Veteran Kazak attacked, both hitting him with lethal Teseum rounds

Dart moved out, being spotted, and failing to do any damage to the Ratnik, Blackjack, and the Urugan

The Myrmidon Officer who had taken command moved to cover the other antenna, as the Asura moved towards the centre, firing at the Urugan, but not harming it at first, only to strike a critical system and disable it with a second burst.

**2/Ariadna**

An Ariadnan spearheaded action claimed the life of the last Thorakitai to Teseum rounds, failing to dodge their fire.

A Veteran Kazak managed to seriously injure the Asura, and then kill her with a second hit.

He had less luck attacking Dart, who survived his fire.

Another Veteran Kazak failed to harm the Dakini, as the first then missed Dart entirely

***3/ALEPH***

The Myrmidon Hacker tried but failed to harm the nearest Kazak Veteran and the Ratnik.

Dart first failed to harm any targets before succeeding in disabling the Ratnik, but then failed to harm either the Blackjack or Veteran Kazak with her last efforts.

***3/Ariadna***

A "Tankhunter" Lieutenant engaged the Myrmidon Officer, but neither side struck their foe.

The Veteran Kazak engaged Dart, at first failing to harm her but then striking a fatal hit.

The Blackjack then felled the Myrmidon Hacker, before moving and taking the Tech-Coffin as the enemy Datatracker.

A concealed "SAS" then emerged and managed to disable the Dakini as well as hold the antenna.

Our forces devastated, we withdrew.
