Asteroid Blues

Turn One Nomads

The Nomads had a deep infiltration unit, a Zero that threaten our troops with a deployable weapon. She sneaked through a building gateway and placed another mine near our troops. On our left flank, two Morlocks moved in our direction. The female was a bit too eager and got shot by our Forward Observer Tin Lang. A Zero with KHD worked on the console in the arena building and discovers the suspect near our left flank. After that one of the Morloks tries to shot down the suspect, but she dodges the blast. The right flank was quite, except from some movement.

Turn One Invincible Army

The Rui Shi discovers the mine and shots it to pieces. The second mine was triggered by the servant bot of our doc. That enables our Zuyong team to move more freely. Ran Lang entered the building to discover the Zero but that took her in LoF of the Moran too. After a quick exchange of gunfire the Moran dropped to ground. After that, Ran discovered the Zero, which in turn, dropped a mine and was shot down by the boarding shotgun (gaming error: A could just say discover-shoot and saved an order). After some fruitless (we found no durian at the market stand) repositioning (and a shrapnel wound for Ran, remember the mine) was Lang Zu in the right position to discovered a distant Intruder Sniper. A controlled burst of HMG fire later removed this thread. Now the Zuyongs could act more freely in their next turn. Miss Long, the Daoying Sniper peeked over the railing to surprise the Swat Unit with some DA Rounds, but she only pierced the wall which gave the HI cover.

Turn Two Nomads

The remaining Morlok killed the Decoy HVT in CC. The Taskmaster was tasked to remove the Daoying Sniper and opened up with his HMG, but the sniper kept calm and placed a precision shoot at the attacker. The HI did not hesitate and fired another salvo, piercing the railing in front of the Sniper, suffered another impact and falls to the ground. Now the Cat-Girl-Doc went to work and pumped a stimulant into the big guy via her med kit. This time his salvo hits home! Surprised from her good work, the Dak shots the Moran back to conscious. The Massai quickly runs to the console and activated it to reveal the suspect on my right flank. This had taken him into LoF of the HMG and he went down again. In the midfield a camouflaged trooper sneaked behind a small cube building and the Libertos revealed himself to place a mine.

Turn Two Invincibly Army

The link went to the midfield, on the way it removed the unconscious Moran and the Liberto. Tin Lang our female FO went to the console in the middle, triggered the mine there, failed her dodge but tanked the impact. Then she rounded the console and the Bandit behind the cube thing revealed himself to place an e-mauler. Tin was trigger happy and shot him down. That gives her free access to the console, revealing a suspect. Dao Hai walked into the hacking area of the zero and fried his brain. After that he triggered the mine there, failed his dodge but tanked the impact (déjà vu?). Now he could hack the console, revealing our main target. Lin neutralized the suspect and the link took a defensive position.

Turn Three Nomads

The Nomad forces were shattered but not beaten. The Morlok runs towards our HMG Zuyong, who shoots the attacker down with his breaker pistols. The The Lunokhud tried a shootout with the Haidao but received an impact with disables it. The Jaguar appeared on the corner of a container and sprayed the area with shrapnel, but the Zuyong dodged out of sight. The Interventor Lt. who has already set up his cybermask, went into position to cover the midfield and the Taskmaster set up surpressive fire. The Daktari quickly runs past the right console, around the container and kills decoy no 2 and got shot by the Rui Shi in turn.

Turn Three Invincibly Army

Louie comes in with a boom and guided by Wan Lans hacking program. The Interventor could not intervene. The Taskmaster trusted into his armor, but fell like a tree. But the Liu Xing was stunned by the warcore. The Zuyong HMG shot at the Jaguar, but he held his position, wounded. Then he went through the doorway in the middle and exchanged fire with the Hacker Lieutnant, got wounded and eventually kills the Interventor and tanked the e-mauler. Lang Hin – our Datatracker – then finished his job and kills the designated target. At least Ran teams up with two comrades, reached the console on the right, but fails to activate it, and was flashed by the warcore. With one order left the turn came to an end.
