While on route to the mission site groups epsilon & zeta encountered some PanOceania troops setting up some relay beacons. Know that this would cause significant setbacks for the main force’s pushing forward, Lieutenant Mason Miller sent orders for his forces to spared out and take cover.

Unfortunately, the stealth approach to this little detour ended quickly as Veronica O’Neill in her hulking Armata-2 Proyekt battle suit was quickly spotted by a Kamau sniper keeping watch.

The Kamau fire off a shot at the Ratnik but the battle suit threat detection systems kicked in, some how firing a rocket directly into the bullets path causing a mid-air explosion. The Kamau clearly in shock about the miracle that had just happened quickly tried to reload but this was all the time O’Neill needed to get old Sputnik’s targeting systems locked on. Another rocket careened up the alleyway, striking the Kamau in the chest before it exploded. After the smoke cleared there was nothing left of the Kamau, yet screams could be heard in the distance, as a number of the Kamau’s fireteam slowly burnt to death from the fire of the explosion.

With the element of surprise clearly lost, Kira gave the command for her Antipode Assault team to attack. Running forward they saw a Zulu-Cobra advancing to intercept them, before he was blown apart by the antipersonnel mines he’d activated. It looked like the scouts were doing their job.

With all visible quarry gone the antipode paused to smell the air, a scent was nearby and they raced to track it down. Jumping over a large rock they descended on a lone Croc man hoping to avoid their notice. In a flurry of blades, claws and teeth they rip the Croc man apart. Feeling the blood lust in their vain rising, they failed to notice the rocket streaking towards them. In yet another fiery explosion the antipodes perished, leaving only one barely holding on to life.

Now that this threat had appeared, the Veteran Kazak Ivan Lebedev ordered his fireteam to advance with him under the supporting fire of Veronica in Sputnik. Getting to the edge of some containers Ivan told his team to spread out and cover his six.

Taking a few short breaths and steading himself, the Veteran Kazak rounded the corner to fire on his target. All he saw was fire, as a rocket exploded at his feet. He heard a scream but somehow, he had survived.

Diving back into cover and pausing to check his armour saw it was still intact, but that was when he saw the body of his beloved, one of the team’s Kazak paramedics, Sofiya, lying charred and dead on the ground. With that image carved in to mind his rage took over as he rounded the corner again, firing round after round into the Kamau not caring if he lived or died as the world turn to fire around him once more. Before he knew it his T2 rifle was empty and he stood in a giant creator.
Somehow, his armour had held. Somehow in his blind fire frenzy he had hit his mark. The Kamau was dead. His fire team rushed to help him stunned by what they had just witnessed.
Whilst the fire team cared for their leader, they fail to notice an Echo-Bravo descend from the sky. It realised its wild parrot and direct it towards them. As the weapon got close to them preparing to unleash its charge, a rocket careened in from nowhere, its anti-TAG warhead detonating leaving noting but a smoking wreck and the huge form of Sputnik rounded the corner. Seeing this the Echo- Bravo slunk into the shadows and away from the battle. The retreat signal had been given. The Tartary Army had won this battle, and claimed their prize.
