Troops in the bar emerge from the front door

Image

They drag downed comrades into the bar to set up a field hospital

Image

Others in the side street, do what they can to do the same, tossing them through the window and dragging them into alleyways

Image

The officer calls on the mediks, calling one to come across and the other to head towards the VK positions.

Image

The sniper fires at the GR sniper, again.

Image

He dies. this time

Image

The second squad rushes to reinforce allied positions. Once they reach them, a few Confederate soldiers see GR infantry exposed, and fire

Image

A Heavy Gunner, and NCO are downed.

Image

Inside the Bar / Field hospital, ZC forces prepare to set up a revival station

Image

(View of the street and alley, showing potentially hidden ZC units)

End of turn. RedRover. if you sent me orders I may need you to send them again, I can't find them. Discord is fine

Also, yes ZC materialized new weapons out of thin air, Those FAMAS style guns have the same stats as the GR light rifles, I got an order of parts in a few weeks ago and didnt want to wait to issue them out

This soldier takes a grenade from the box.

Image
He removes the warhead and loads it into his grenade launcher

Image
Arc Firing it over the rubble...

Image
Critical Success He meant to destroy the cover, instead the grenade flies right into the chest of a Volhinyan soldier..

Image
It explodes point blank, killing both.

Image
Wanting to best his comrade, this recon operator unhinges the rocket on his back and peeks around the corner seeing several VK,

Image
He fires at them...

Image
This Volhinyan soldier prepares to block the round with his shield.

Image
The blast is mostly redirected, but some of it sneaks between the shield and the tank, flying bavckward towards the grenade cache. Pact soldiers nearby see this, panic and attempt to dodge.

Image
It is of no use, the box begins to detonate, 2 VK and 1 ZC are immediately killed in the first explosion sending grenades flying everywhere, on fire

Image
Mayhem! more grenades go off like a cluster bomb, killing more, and mauling the bodies of he dead, out of 8 minifigs clustered in the area, only 2 survive

Image
The rocket troop celebrates his epic win

Image
Two Recon troops vacate the building with medical supplies and go across the street

Image
The one in the helmet suggests to his partner that they grab the sniper rifle, and try to scoop the fallen off the roof.

Image
They pull him off the roof

Image
Critical Fail he lands on his head and breaks his neck, he won't be returning to the battle...

Image
The two leave the building, agreeing with one another to never speak of the fuck-up they just caused.

Image
Sniper leaves the safety of the house, and fires from behind a car, trying to get a better shot on the ZC sniper

Image
He hits the wall... but knocks him off balance

Image
He hits the ground

Image
He gets up.. a medik nearby is ready to help him.

Image
The officer and medik react as a slab of roofing falls off and hits him in the head...

Image
The last remaining Volhinyan soldier grabs a GT lance left on the ground

In a fit of rage, or in a blaze of glory. he charges at the guy who just wiped out so many soldiers.

Image
He's stuck with the lance

A medik emerges from the outpost

The other medik, fully revives an AT Rifleman without incident.

Image
This gunner tears down his emplacement

Image
A grunt nearby, stacks a piece of rubble as an emplacement for the gun

Image
The gunner goes and sets the gun up on the fortification, with the barrel sticking out the hole.

Image
A nearby squad leader (left) rallies the rest of the troops that are ready to go, and leads a charge across the park. The trooper with the plasma rifle fires at the bar

Image
It knocks the door off the hinge and smokes a Confederate soldier in the back.

Image
The guy with the battle rifle then fires at the open door

Image
Another one gets hit, sending him flying back over the boxes. dead

Image
The squad leader goes to fire at another unit, but misses, his pulse rifle breaks part of the wall

Image
Three GR soldiers stare down the lone VK trooper, a lowly private steps forward looking to get his first kill

Image
Critical Fail He trips over something on the road

Image
He falls on his weapon and it goes off, killing himself.

Image
A second soldier steps up to the plate, shoots and misses... That VK won't die.

Image
The squad leader steps up as the team's last chance

Image
... The VK is done for

Image
OVERKILL High damage roll, the burst cuts the VK to pieces... he's double dead.

The soldier with the pulse rifle experiences a weapon jam, but the one with the battle rifle fires on the ZC machinegunner

Image
He breaks the cover and also smokes him in the torso.

Image
The GR Officer, feeling he's missing on the glory, screams at the soldiers in the bunker "YOU TWO GONNA SIT ON YOUR BUTTS ALL DAY?!. ON ME!. LET'S GET SOME"

"Skippy asked for the officer to inspire nearby troops with a +1 skill bonus.. I allowed it for this turn, although it didnt help in the end anyway."
Image
One medic successfully revives the Sniper without incident.

Image
Frustrated that he failed to save anyone, the other medic throws down his medikal equipment and runs to the frontline to get in the fight

Image
An ally steps out of the alley with him, and fires at Galacian soldiers, he misses.

Image
Critical Fail Not paying attention to what he is doing, he accidentally shoots and kills his ally.

Redrover has been away for a while, and there wasnt much he could do in terms of killing on this turn. I opted to NPC him, as in I played the turn.

Also, did the same for bann because he had been giving me pretty simple and vague orders, I figured he wanted to just keep pushing the attack.

Image
Recon troops take the medical gel and walk towards fallen troops

Image
With two to choose from, they pick the dead rocket guy. As he probably singlehandedly turned the tide of the battle

Image
Success! They are able to put him back together.. without a proper hospital he may not live long, however.

Image
Image

Other Recon troops move forward into the fray

Image
Sniper decides to use a corpse as a weapon rest. A nearby medic scolds him
Medic: "Hey man that's not right!"

Bann

Image
The trooper assisting the machinegunner shouts to the troops in front to clear the way.

Image
Amoungst a bunch of screaming, GR troopers scatter out of the path of the Shuka as it gets ready to fire.

Image
Critical Fail *Click. click*

Image
Weapon malfunction!

Image
Trooper fires plasma rifle into the bar

Image
Kill

Image
Two more soldiers step up to the plate and fire down the street

Image
The horrible medik finally has karma catch up to him.

Image
Another pair of troops nearby, advance and fire down the road too

Image
With no one to redshirt this time, the officer gets killed

Skippy

Image
Rebel Sniper "Listen to me. we're the only ones left, we're not going down without a fight... but I have a plan... drop your weapons, and follow me."

Image
They emerge from behind the bar with their hands up
GR Trooper "HANDS UP!. STEP OUT SLOWLY"

Image
Rebel Sniper "When I say, run into that alley"

Image
He looks up on the roof and sees something.

Image
Rebel Sniper "Theres a rocket launch site on the roof of that building..."

Image
They suddenley dive into the alley..

Image
Take grenades..

Image
And heave them.

Image
Image

Image
Rubble falls on them both, killing them.

Image
The other half of the roof flies forward and crushes two troopers... a rocket round comes down with it

Image
It blows up, killing the other two.

Lt Sawchuk: "Everyone, rally'round. Debreif!"

Image
The Rest of the recon team comes over with the rocket user on a stretcher
*Troopers cheer as they see that this guy made it out afterall*
Lt Sawchuk: "This guy!. This guy took out half a dozen VK and half a city block, A round on me tonight!"
*More Cheering*

Image
*Sounds of vehicles and heavy armor approaching*
GR Trooper "the hell is that coming?
GR Medic "Why are they trying to fucking tanks down these streets..?!"

Image

Image
Lt Sawchuk: "Make way!, move out of the way!"

Image
Several faceless shock troopers emerge from the apc and stand in columns like they're laying out a red carpet for someone.
GR Trooper "Who the fuck is this now?"

Image
Two minifigs in lavish armor exit the vehicle.
Lt Sawchuk: "Shul!...uh... PLATOON... ATTEN-TION!"

Image
Gen. Shulga: "Lieutenant. My congratulations on your victory today, most other sectors in Kurgan have reported similar success... The day is ours..
Lt Sawchuk: "Yes General. Thank you, sir"
Gen. Shulga: "I would speak to one of your men, Lieutenant.."
Lt Sawchuk: "Yes General.

Image
Gen. Shulga: "I understand that you are the one responsible for that explosion.."
Sgt Spooner *weakly* "Yes.. sir"
Gen. Shulga: "While I do not approve of reckless and wanton destruction of our own buildings, You killed a lot of rebels.. and broke the back of their forces in this district, And I also believe that explosion inspired forces in neighboring districts all the same..
Gen. Shulga: "When you have healed, I would like to extend an invitation to you in one of our finest programs... I'm always looking for good soldiers."
Sgt Spooner *weakly* "Of course!.. thank you General"

Image
The General and his escort pile re-enter the APC.

GG, good to see you've got quite some kills out of that one, even though GR felt slightly OP.
For future battles, I'd suggest to either shrink down the battlefield a bit or grant you infantry some APCs for quicker movement across the map.

truth be told I was pushing people along to get this wrapped up sooner because I wanted to start on my next battlefield, which wont be urban.

I havent got it planned but I just want to be able to move plates around and test stuff out. and I also need my figs off the table because im doing a new overwatch soon


My closing thoughts - Self review

- I think put too many hazards on this map.
- I need better FX, This will be solved soon, I ordered about $40 worth of parts soley dedicated to things like explosions, fire, blood. etc
- need more Melee combat and overall less gun vs gun combat
- I could have done the turns faster, but RL was calling

Also, I feel GR won because of a combo of lucky explosions, and a lot of critfails at the worst possible time on the other side.

but I digress.. :belushi:
