PanO forces under Joan of Arc have successfully secured the Liberty Cargo Storage Area against an insidious Yu Jing attack. In a hard fought battle, the PanO forces heroically upheld the ideals of ‘Enduring Liberty’ in the face of murderous attacks from the enemies of freedom.

PanO Deployment
Yu Jing Deployment

When Joan heard that a team from the notorious Invincible Army was attacking the Liberty Cargo Logistics Centre she had a premonition that trouble was coming from the skies. She deployed her troops to avoid bunching together and tried to cover as many angles as possible. Seconds later, a Liu Xing made an explosion landing next to Nisse Lars. Lars bravely absorbed the blast and shot his assailant but wasn’t able to penetrate his armour. After struggling bravely for some time, the Liu Xing eventually overcame him and wounded Auxilia Julia who had also put up a good fight.

An explosive arrival - Don't you hate it when unexpected guests drop in?

The Yu Jing commander turned his attention to the PanO right flank, and a Hulang duo raced forward to get to grips with the brave defenders there. The team leader had been so focussed on his prey, that he’d not noticed the Sierra Dronbot covering his route. It opened up at optimal range, killing him instantly. His buddy was left stranded in the open not daring to move.

Should have gone to SpecSavers! The Hulang Duo blithely advance into the Dronbot's field of fire.

Now recognising the threat from the Dronbot, a second Liu Xing attempted to drop down next to it, but fortunately lost his bearings and ended up far in the rear of the Yu Jing forces.
The Zanshi core fire team advanced cautiously forward, but went rapidly into reverse when Zulu- Cobra Mike attempted to jam the team leader. They bunched up tightly behind a building just out of jamming range.

The cowardly fireteam retreat from the jammer.

Regular Hacker Maria crawled forward and launched several grenades onto them. She knocked out the Missile Launcher armed Zanshi and wounded the Haidao, before switching her attention to the camouflaged trooper that was threatening the Crocmen in the centre of the battlefield. She hit and knocked out the trooper who was now revealed to be a Daoying and the enemy lieutenant!

Expert bomber - Maria takes out the enemy lieutenant.

Her success allowed Crocman Hemi to reposition himself to supress potential attacks by either of the Liu Xing.
The Dronbot was able to finish off the second Hulang, reducing the enemy order pool further.

Despite the confusion in the Yu Jing ranks, the Zanshi fire team with the Shang Ji acting as team leader managed to advance up the stairs, first wounding Zulu Cobra Mike and then Maria.

Recovering their courage, the fireteam advance and wound Mike and Maria

Joan personally led her forces forward in a counter attack, wounding and driving back the Shang Ji though suffering a wound herself. As darkness fell, careful measurement of the ground revealed that, although it had been a perilously close call, the PanO forces had overcome.

A close call, but PanO had secured the positional advantage.
