Digging Up the Past -- Turn 5: Finale
Posted: Fri Dec 14, 2012 10:26 pm
Bavarian P.O.W.s
As Bob prepares to chainsaw Von Klaus into a fine red mist, Klaus turns towards his assailant.
"Holy shit, that's the greatest mustache I've ever seen!"
"You think so?"
"I can't destroy something that awesome! I'm declaring an immediate ceasefire with Bavaria. Here, take this peace treaty back to the Kaiser."
"I shall return it to die Reichstag vith all haste, my vriend."
And so, Captain Maxmillian Emil-Mannerheim Von Klaus rides off into the sunset, with a new ally for Bavaria and a lunar rover full of advanced Deadly SpaceMan teknology.
Bavarian Reinforcements
The dino rider jumps into the just-vacated gunner's seat and opens fire, but fails to hit anything.
Peach Raiders
With their leader down and the Artifax in enemy hands, the two rebels remove the pins from their concussion grenades and charge the enemy in a suicidal assault.
Suicide attacks work better with real grenades than with stun grenades.
Rogue VoL
The two remaining VoL troops move up, killing a grenadier and stealing his jetpack.
The Acolyte uses the jetpack to fly away from the ruins. The shock trooper grabs the radar dish, which was right by his feet.
VoL Reinforcements
A sniper emerges from concealment near the wreckage of the dropship and aims his weapon at Blackdog.
"Hey, do I know that guy from somewherEEEAAAAARGH!"
Blackdog's headless corpse stumbles into a control panel...
... and flames belch from the smokestacks as the landship's steam reactor overloads.
The rest of the VoL move up and kill a Peach and a T.L.A. flame trooper.
T.L.A.
Having made peace with the Bavarians, Bob the Unbuilder looks around the field for another target. He settles on the sole remaining vehicle besides his own.
"Pilot, attack that landship head on!"
"Mister President, there's no way we can pull off a maneuver like that-"
"FUCK YES WE CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!"
Bob guns down an AA gunner and the last crewman on the bridge.
T.L.A. Reinforcements
The sniper kills the VoL with the jetpack.
The sole remaining grenadier kills a peach with a grenade.
Britannian Reinforcements
With their ship immobilized and their bridge crew dead, there's not much the Conqueror's remaining crew can do. They manage to kill the VoL trooper holding the radar dish.
