Kedzior (Ramah) wins Initiative and chooses to go first. I deploy expecting a Khawarij in 5man link or an MSV Mukhtar with smoke, i.e. I leave no stuff to ARO other than taighas once he gets to my side and turns the corner.
Kedzior's core link wih Leila and Khawarij spitfire advance the wide corridor and Leila calibrates the generator there.
The link then continues to advance and Leila happens to hug a wall too close to Ikadron's Repeater while not being a Link Leader and eats a Sucker Punch and dies.
Undaunted, the link pushes forward and a single Ghulam moves out to take a Nox LGL and two Taighas, and succeeds removing all of them and going Unconscious himself. The remaining 3 man link then pushes some more, removing an Ikadron and a Nox FO, and they sit there, menacingly.
My first turn I start with Sheskiin, a Nox, Nox hacker, an Ikadron and a lone Taigha.
The Taigha dies running towards Khawarij. Sheskiin tries to remove the Naffatun but he tanks 4 hits and retreats behind the corner. Nox hacker places itself overlooking the corridor leading to Command Room (relevant later). Sheskiin then tries to remove Ghulam LgL but fails and a nearby Nox dies in the process. She then mans up and goes against both Khawarij and Ghulam LgL and removes the Khawarij. Then she finally removes the Ghulam LgL. Second to last order she moves behind Naffatun, luckily dodging the flame, then goes prone and removes him with her Red Fury.
Kedzior's Monstrucker rushes to enter the Command Room and calibrate the second Generator. Only the coverless Nox hacker with smg stands in his way… Kedzior is concerned he will not have enough orders to calibrate if he hugs cover as the doors to Command Room require a WIP test to open… so he runs full forward and loses the FtF against a roll of 6, shock ammo, then fails armour. This is game.
Ghulam Panzerfaust then runs across the board to place un uncomfortable ARO on Sheskiin.
Sheskiin kills the Ghulam Panzerfaust, calibrates the generator. Nox hacker moves into cover then they both coordinate Suppression.
Kedzior is in Retreat and passes turn.
Nox Hacker tries to go calibrate the second generator but is short 1" to click it.
6:1 Shas victory.

Great Report.
A full link with Sheskiin in a 150-points battle is quite nasty 🙂
Excellent battle report!
too many Shasvastii in the GM..)
That is one sweet looking Shasvastii force.
