Boarding the Hyperion - turn 6

Post by Apollyon » Mon Dec 06, 2010 9:44 am

Welcome to turn six!

The Immortals - Warhead

Image

Pointing somewhere behind Zombie Lincoln Warhead yells: "ZOMG! It's John Wilkes Booth!!!" which distracts ZL in a decisive way.

Image

Not being able to defend himself just for a split second Zombie Lincoln is slain.
But can that which does not live be killed?

Image

On his way back to the bridge the Terrokhan joins Apollyon in the corridor of death but there are no targets to be seen for now.

Zombie Lincoln and the Unded Spacemen - Lt.Krus

Image

The minigun wielding undead turns to avenge his masters "death".

Image

Little does an undead zombie know about the powers of a Nova Sword.

Image

Warhead deflects the rounds fired at him and kills the undead.

Image

Another undead spaceman decides to fight the next target in range, Apollyon.

Image

But fighting heros is dangerous even if you are already undead.

Image

The next one fires at the Terrorkhan, but cannot penetrate the heavy armor.

Image

The Terrokhan returns fire and kills yet another undead.

Image

The streak of bad luck continues for the undead as the last one's weapon jams. :-/

Deadly Spacemen - lrdofbricks

Image

Blue with the Assyrian laser rifles rips the last undead on board to pieces.

Briktopians - Solvess

Image

Apollyon hunts down the last pirate and cuts off his hands rendering him helpless.

This is also the end of the battle... but the story of the INS Hyperion continues further down.

Winners: Warhead and lrdofbricks.


Now for some Overwatch shots of the carnage before the Hyperion gets dismantled (sniff).

Image

The whole thing.

Image

Warhead's room and the ship's mass.

Image

Crew quarters.

Image

The armory everyone liked to enter so much.

Image

Engineering.

Image

And the corridor that saw a lot of death.

Image

Two things that sadly were not put to use: the OTC door and "Beaky", a robotic velociraptor contraption.

This not the end yet, hold your breath for the

Conclusion:

Indeed, characters like Zombie Lincoln cannot be killed permanently but they can be captured...

Image

Apollyon: "Zombie Lincoln has powers over the Undead. Perhaps he can be useful now that you have captured him. You could send him anywhere once your warpgate is repaired."

Image

Warhead: "Indeed. The Immortal Empire could supply him with an endless number of sacrifices to swell his ranks.
Ah, what masterpiece of teknology! We gave it to the peaches, too. Just because we can."

Image

Warhead: "Commander, drop Apollyon at the coordinates he will give to you. After that make sure the computer core is delivered."

Image

Warhead: "You cannot possibly imagine at what lenghts i had to go to retrieve this computer core or what would happen if it got into the wrong hands. And then you come along and try to raid the ship."

Image

Apollyon: "That was just a matter of koincidence. You do know that the Briktopian Empire will not tolerate any Immortal agression towards its territory... not to speak of your blasphemous support of peaches! Next time we meet it shall be on the opposites of the battlefield again."

Image

Warhead: "Well met Apollyon. But i have other matters to attend to now... on Fico. MUAHAHHAHAHAAA!"
Apollyon: "Godspeed! Warhead.

I did show this pic on the chat some months ago and it reminds me of how much time it took to build the Hyperion. Add to that the time it took to play this battle... I can vividly imagine what Warhead is going through right now building Fico.

It has been a privilege and an inspiration watching this unfold, I really want to build a vast ship interior using all my baseplates after the Fall Of Fico. :D It was a shame the enemy ran out of reinforcements but I'm glad my so called tactics paid off so well, the corridor of death shall be remembered.

Great story progression Appolyon, cheers mate! 8)

Told you it was a trap.

:) Ah, yes... Very good, you have kept our bargain and a deal is a deal., besides the prisoner will make for fine sport. :twisted:

Expect your supplies of Maniac Beer to start arriving before your return to your home world, I have taken the liberty of sending word ahead. To prevent any Immortal entanglements (see: Invassion by drink crazed Rouge Maniac Horde) I would suggest you do not attempt to export more than 2% of the consignments shipped to you. 2% is ample in today's economic climate to help fund a new arms expansion or invasion fleet... have I shown you our ebrochure of accredited and tested weapons of mass and lesser destruction? http://www.brikwars.com/forums/viewtopi ... 81&start=0 :wink:

Your hero survived because of Warhead's successful heroic feat to join him (yes, i did roll for that. if that roll had failed the end of the battle and the storyline would have been very different). Also you did not kill and humiliate all other factions, which is the standard secondary objective naturally. So technically you survived - but you were far from winning. I hope you had fun anyway.

p.s.
Just looked at the pics in turn 0. Damn the Hyperion was so tidy! YOU VANDALS!

Yeah, but me and my crew were just minding our own business until this lot attacked. So, I've had a broom inserted into the pirate prisoner, he can walk about and sweep up the dead as he goes.

Well, damn! That didn't go well, I guess I'll need more Pirates. Who knew the broom was supposed to go lengthwise and not sideways. :roll:
