Asteroid Blues

To: Commander Yokoso
From: Captain Ching Shih
Mission: Frontline

Dice Man! I mean, the Estemed Mr. Yokoso. Why the [expletive] did you throw us upagainst some prissy pants PanO as soon as we got back from our Dawn Tour! The guys were all tired and need some R&R! We thought we were coming home for some fun. Not more more bullets flying at our heads!

Here’s your damn report!

As per your orders, we got off our own ship to head over to the cargo docks to take it from the Prissies.

You didn’t tell me we’d be going up against M-Fer knights! WTF Dice?!

We were able to keep the intiatitve thankfully and were were only just able to keep them from overunning us.

Somehow I was able to talk a few Yuan Yuan into staying with us to give us smoke cover but of course the stupid Fat ass Red Baron insited on uisng his silly jet pack to drop in. That guy will be the death of me!

Baron did manage somehow to land without killing himself thought he didn’t make the target I told him to go for. We need to get that old EVO fixed! None of those crazy Yuan Yuan can’t seem to find their own ass with both hands without it!

I couldn’t hold back Yojimbo and his Ariadna Biker pal. They went racing off on his bike with his little toys. At first I thought Yojimbo was going to be taken out by that HMG but he was able to put some smoke down to avoid it. But his pal didn’t make it. I think we need to get these guys in bulk! They are great if they actually get up there but nothing but big targets if they don’t.

Boom Boom was taken out by a shiney ass HMG from the start and that lost us a lot of good firepower. Luckly she’s not dead but it’s going to days weeks of nanosurgery for her to lift her missile launcher again. That guy gave us hell the whole engagement. Luckily her band of Keisotsu were able to move in along with Snappy the Sniper. Matusri, our FO speicalist, was able to move forward enough to get some good intell on these guys. Unfortunately after loosing BB the team just couldn’t ge their act back together without her.

Snappy tried taking out that HMG with some smoke cover but the bastard managed to avoid it.
Muslime the Bashi showed up on the ohter flank behind Baron and didn’t do much yet.

The group of knights moved up around some buildings in the flank and of course that idiot Yojimbo was out the open for that HMG to shoot him full of holes. Blessed Buddah you didn’t say an aspect of Joan [expletive] of Arc was with them! I swear you don’t tell us this stuff on purpose!

A Friar Tuck looking guy with a visor killed one of the Yuan Yuan. I can’t rember it’s name, there’s so damn many of them.

That old TR Bot we got on sale took out this Friar Tuck, so from there at our smoke did help. It also took a lucky shot all the way across the battle feild and scored a lucky hit on one the them as the moved from cover to cover.

Some guy with a [expletive] rocket launcher poped up and took out Snappy but the other Kesotsu managed to avoid the hit. The Rui Shi we brought along managed to get a lucky hit on the guy and took it out.

Then one of those guys with the Auxbot moved up and caught Baron and Muslime in it’s heavy flame thrower. Muslime at least with her dying breath put down her own bit of revenge with an E-Mine. But the Auxbot never really moved from there to set it off.

The Knight Hacker with spitfire came around the corner and that fish guy I can’t prononouce the name of tried to explode him with it’s DEP but got dead instead.

Louie Lu Duan moved up and shot the Spitfire-Hacker they had. Then moved up more and flambéd a good chung of the group of kights and the fancy schmancy armor didn’t help. That smug full of herself Arc went down! Thinks she’s so [expletive] Pretty! Not so prety now [expletive]! Also that HMG went down! Unfotunately he wasn’t out. One of the Shinies did manage to hit Louie and was disabled.

Also Kasim finally showed up from the side dock and managed come up behind two fo the Knights and then put down one of his e-mauler thingies.

I managed to get some of the rest of the force off their asses and moved them in.

The 2 knights Kasim came behind on turned around and got a E-Mine in the face and froze up one of them. Unfortunately their doctor was fine and Kasim went down.

Their doctor moved up and managed to heal the HMG damn it! We at least took him down as he did it.

Yolanda the Yuan Yuan I kept back then came and and shoved her chain rifle up his [expletive] and took him out.

We lost some good troops! Well, good for us anyway. But we got it done!

Captain of the Pretty PIrate Princess
And the prettiest killer you’ve ever seen!

Ikari Win
Ikari 5 (Got near sector, far sector, Liaison officer was in center but it wasn’t dominated)
PanO 3 (only thanks to a not dead but Immobilized knight in the center sector)

A fun battle vs. Swamprat!

Neither of us were able to use the Assured Support rule due to having lists already made. For me, adding SWC would mean adding pts. He already had Joan adding to his SWC and had the same situation.
