The Meatgrinder

Ilya “Muromets” Tyahnybyk was a very happy man right now. His huge frame was encased in a brand new set of Gamma armor, and in his hands was possibly the single greatest weapon in the sphere: a modified rapid-fire feuerbach. Everything had been looking up since the boss signed up with O-12. No more soggy noodles or bland kibble, no more sulking in alleys listening in on the stronger PMCs, no more sleeping on the dirty office floor. Muromets was a proper modern man now, with a salary and a bed and even a cube! He plodded joyfully forward in his patrol route when a warning flashed on his AR display.

“Alert. Alert.” The system chimed “Intruders detected. All units please respond.”

Muromets changed course and began to run in the direction the display showed him. He was taken by surprise for a second by the power and responsiveness of the leg servos. He felt himself sprint forward with simple ease, as if the super-heavy armor and weapon were weightless and he was wearing nothing at all. The thought brought a hearty laugh out of the man.

“Muromets please respond.” A voice with a posh Concilium accent came in through the communicator

“Muromets here, what is up little boss”

Otto Van Der Waal, the Alpha trooper in charge of the Diplomatic Security Service was not little at all. He stood almost as tall as the Gamma trooper, but his spare frame had earned him the nickname “little boss” among the mostly Ariadnan and Corregidorian members of the unit. Most people would take offense to such a title. But the Alpha saw it for what it was: a sign of welcoming camraderie, and let it slide for the good of the unit.

“Proceed to the main armory building. Local assets are already en route. Your orders are to clear the way for them with extreme prejudice and aid them in securing the area. As always, please do make an effort to put them under arrest. Good hunting.”

Short and clear, Muromets liked Van Der Waal’s style. He approached the ZO and shouted a greeting to the Varangians gathering behind a nearby building, which they answered with cheers and whoops, encouraged by the sight of the massive Gamma. This would be a good day.

O-12 Turn 1

The Varangian guard impetuously advanced toward the enemy. The Gamma trooper then peeked around the corner and unloaded his feuerbach into the nearest door, destroying it and opening the way for his allies. The Varangian guard and the Sirius piled in while the gangbusters and their madtraps took positions cvering the door. The Varangians took items from the panoplies and the Kappa hacker used assisted fire on the Peeler Copperbot.

Yu Jing Turn 1

A Guilang sniper rose from the shadows and took two shots at the gamma trooper on the roof. Luckily he managed to respond with a well-aimed shot and rendered her unconscious, only to be taken down a moment later by a Daofei. A Zuyong then began making his way forward cautiously, avoiding the fire from the Peeler, however he became overcinfident near the end and took a wound from the remote. A Zanshi hacker used lockpicker on the door nearest the Yu Jing deployment zone and they ended their turn regrouping.

O-12 Turn 2

One of the gangbusters moved forward with the intention of accomplishing a data scan classified objective. She was surprised, however, by a ninja, using redrum on her. After a couple of rounds of hacking, the ninja was felled and the second gangbuster managed to accomplish the objective by scanning the nearby zuyong. The siriusbot then moved forward and glued the heavy trooper but was rendered unconscious in his effort. At this point the Sirius and both Gangbusters went into suppressive fire mode.

Yu Jing Turn 2

A mech-engineer moved forward, careful not to alert the Peeler keeping guard, he then proceeded to remove the glue from his ally. The Zuyong moved forward, also avoiding the remote’s fire, and moved in to loose a shotgun blast at the O-12 officers nearest to the door. They managed to dodge or survive the hit, and one of the varangian guards moved in to engage the enemy.

O-12 Turn 3

The engaged Varangian struck out at the Zuyong, and while he managed to end his life, the heavy trooper deflty cut him down with his knife. The Sirius trooper turned the corner and cut down the Zhanshi hacker with her red fury. The Gamma moved forward and, by crawling, fit his massive frame in the objective room. The Assisted fire was refreshed and all other troopers took positions.

Yu Jing Turn 3

From the back, a Hsien approached the corner of the building he was standing on and attempted to dodge a burst of fire from the Peeler. He did not survive. In a last ditch effort, the daofei attempted to storm the room, but was deterred by the Varangians’ light shotguns and the Gamma’s heavy pistol. He did not have the time for a second try.
