As Warmup for the new Missions in the Asteroid we started up with some Members of the Steel Phalanx in a friendly training session. We loaded not Lethal Ammunition so that every Soldier can get back home after the Mission is over. Even they Promised us not hit us to Hard in Close Combat.

On the Tactical Advantage on our Alpha Lieutenant I began first and Hold back the Sirius and Epsilon. We gave Sirius the Order to neutralize the HVT in this Mission. So we Deployed her on the Nearest Possible Position. The Epsilon was on a Good spot. With Smoke of his nearest friend of the Varangian Guard, He took out a thorakitai. The First “Blood” was on our side. After that a Gangbuster activated the first Antenna. In his way he destroyed a valuable Netrod. He Swears that they tried to hit us with this thing. The Next step was a Coordinated Order with the Bounty Hunter and the 2 Dakini Paramedic bots to get in good position and move to a good spot to pin down the other Thorakitai. With Suppressed fire of the 2 Dakinis no one of the Thorakitai tried to move. Meanwhile Sirius runned to the HVT and put her Down. The First 4 Points was scored. With the last Order she took out a myrmidon with Spitfire.
A Good First Start.

But the answer of the Steel Phalanx was to neuralize the Siriusbot and than Sirius herself. Meanwhile The Agema Marksmen got out of his cover and Shot down my Bounty Hunter. With his eyes now on the Battlefield he didn’t give us much Room to move.

My Plan was clear in Turn 2. First Get Down this Agema Marksmen. But this was a failure on the Epsilon. He lost the duel vs. the Agema. The Delta Doctor with his Bot came out of the Air and Saved Him to give him a Second Chance. The Agema Shoot down the Epsilon a Second Time. After 7 Orders. And 2 Times the Epsilon Kissed the Ground he Took out the Marksmen. With the last Order I activated the next Antenna near the Gangbuster who now could walk to it without fear of the Sniper.

Eudores and Machaon now are Rdy to get Action. First he Killed my Delta. After that he activated 2 Antenna and Shot down my HVT. We had now Even Score on the Point Limit.

I gave my Epsilon the Chance to get a better result as the Duel with the Agema Marksman. He Shooted with his HMG in the Direction of Machaon. But his Luck was really great. He Dodged Most of his Bullets. In the End Epsilon was in Reach with his Nanopulser and that’s how I let him there. Because low on Order I could only got my third antenna and my Alpha Destroyed on of my Antennas.

Last Round of the Steel Phalanx. Eudoros now charged the Epsilon and Took him down in the Close Combat. He Shot down my Alpha and gave Machaon enough Room to move. He destroyed one of his Antenna but it was not possible for him to get a third Antenna. 1 Order short.

It was a good Result for us. The Epsilon was not in his best performance this day. But in the next Match he has time to Make it up. As soon we finished the Training and got Dust out of our Uniforms the First Order Arrived. We need Patrolling in the CARGO SPACEPORT.
