Asteroid Blues

ZzzzzT, “Jade seven to Dragon two, your orders are to clear the mercenaries out of Harry’s Bar on the strip.”

“Afirmative, Dragon two assigned to strike Harry’s Bar, over, ” the Daoying lieutenant replied. She knew this was going to be a tough battle, even with the Sharpshooter on their side.

Round 1

Yu Jing got the jump on the Ikari forces. After impetuous movements the Liu Xing dropped down where he could hit two low level soldiers, a doctor and a regular soldier. He managed to kill the low level soldier with his explode landing, but they chose to shoot, killing the jump troop. A tiger solder dropped in and exacted revenge, using the rest of order pool one to kill off the doctor, 2 soldiers in the link and the Tanko missile launcher. With Order pool two the Rui Shi went to work taking out the TR bot. The turn ended with a lot of suppression.

Ikira was on it’s heels, but they had a few tricks, like dropping 4 or 5 Yuan Yuans in. One tied up the Tiger, the other landed with three Kuang Shi in the same room. One landed by the YJ TR Bot and the other in another location. The Tiger got tied up by the Yuan Yuan. The TR bot fell. Yo Jimbo moved up but wasn’t able to do much before falling to suppression fire from the Hulang.

The battle became pretty intense and totally forgot about taking photos. Essentially, the Daiyokai moved up and did some damage, killing the Hulang and the Weibing, and eventually the YJ Rui Shi, but was killed by the Rui Shi on the next turn. The Daoying fell to the opponents Rui Shi. The enemy Libertos took out the YJ Libertos. The Shaolin moved across the board into base to base with the Yuan Yuan in base to base with the Tiger who took out another Keisotsu and baggage bot.

The battle began to swing to ikari’s favor half way through, but it was too late! YJ managed to take out too many of Ikari’s key pieces.

Yu Jing was able to kill two LT’s and more army points. Ikari was able to kill the Designated target with his datatracker.

7-3 Victory for YJ!
