'We're sure he's gone? Really really sure?'

'We're tracking him as being in a fist-fight with an Ariadnan wolf-man at present,' Shakti said distractedly, checking over her gun. 'And we can probably get him to route past that one Fusilier afterward. His dance card will be full for whole minutes.'

It had been a stressful day. Upon arrival, her team had been immediately ordered into the tunnels deep beneath the asteroid, where they found precisely zero people who would be even the slightest bit reasonable, and it was starting to wear on her. She squinted into the darkness ahead at the figures taking cover in the labyrinth of crates. Red Turbans - why they were in the way of her search for the Combined Army was beyond her, but she was far too tired for questions at this point. 'Drop Netrods,' she said into her radio. Flares of microrockets lit the darkness. One landed neatly, impaling a shipping container and deploying the comforting sensation of secure Maya access. The other careened into a rock and exploded.

It had been a -very- stressful day.

In my last report, I asked, what could I possibly field at an hundred points but Just Achilles? This, as it turns out.
The Opposition, in precisely the same condition now as they will be at the end.
Tacos again - for those unfamiliar, there are four targets scattered around the board, and the objectives that we cycle through require interaction with them. The fellow there is one of those objectives. The robot up top is laying down Suppressive Fire.
And this one has a similarly nice overwatch of another objective. This should help me out. Right?

It did not. A Khawarij shot right through the one Dakini's suppressive fire, and the other got toasted by a flamethrower. My attempts at getting the Lieutenant and a hacker up to claim the control-two-objectives objective were thrown off quite thoroughly by the Khawarij super-jumping around and shooting the hacker. Fortunately...

GRAB!
RUN!
GRAB FOR THE DRAW! Photo provided by J. J. Abrams. I'm pretty sure thepoorman could've gone for more points, but here we were.
A cat watching the game, fuzzy in more ways than one.
