^the general set up. Here is the peacefull resort where the diplomats go to chill. as you can see, some of them are relaxing in the pool, while another is talking on the phone. there is the building where they stay, and there is 2 security guards guarding the place. there is non lego terrain to make the forest look like a forest.

Nice use of Heroscape for the field. I've been wanting to try that myself.

He tripped. lol the merc retrieves the other gun.

Image
Image
The Second guard in the tower sees this happen, and fires on the Merc. he crit fails, but then realizes the gun is out of ammo. He puts in the power-cell to the gun.

Image
A uncreative drop pod streaks toward the field! Whats inside it? Help?

Image
Oh no! It is the rest of the Merc forces, deepstriking into play. (how did they all fit in the d. pod :mystery: )

Image
Image
the merc holds the Diplomat as a human shield, and the Guard can't get off a shot. what will he do with there first prisoner?

Image
Image
Meanwhile, from the other side of the battlefield, droids march through the trees, and the rest of the droids deploy

Image
The Mercs start shooting the guard.

Image
The guard dropped the weapon in fright, and ran inside!

Image
Meanwhile, the other diplomats that escaped are inside. The one realizes that his phone is not registering signal. They must be being jammed!

Image
The merc throws the diplomat into the droid ship, and calls the pilot up to 'secure the package'. the droid complies, and carries something in its hand...

Image
Meanwhile, the guard uses the notion of implied doors to rush inside. The diplomats are still shocked below that this is happening.

Image
after instructing the droid, the merc leaves.Then the panicked diplomat saw his chance to escape, but he underestimated the droid and its weapon. Don't taze me bro!

Image
After receiving the shock, the diplomat falls down, unconscious.

Image
The guard had grabbed a automatic, rushed to the window, and saw the advancing droids. The guard quickly preformed a spray and pray on the close formation of droids, expecting huge results...

Image
Image
...and fails to hit with EVERY SINGLE SHOT! :evil: In fact, the heat generated was enough that it melted the barrel off! (why all the critical fails!?! Why!!!)

Image
The Mercenary use the cover of the forest to get ready to break into the building.

Image
The Guard, undaunted, uses implied stairs to run to the top floor, and picks up the hidden mini-gun.

Image
Everything under the green target is hit with a shot from the mini-gun!

Image
Gah! what is up with my rolling!!! once again, i miss with half my shots, and fail to kill with the other shots. Also, I critical failed 3 shots, and the roll to see what the fail is is a 5! mini-gun is jammed! RAAAAAGGGEEEEEE!!! :fu:

This guard is sucking on his dice rolls big time! I say, if he lives through this, he should be fired, what about you?

Image
the merc's prepare to storm the building!

Image
The dual wielder goes to kick down the door.

Image
The diplomats, hearing the rustling outside, fear that the rustling is mercenaries, and quickly call upon Implied stairs to escape upwards.

Image
The door broke, and the mercenaries break in!

Image
Image
Meanwhile, the droids decided that they didn't like that there armor was being chipped and scratched by bullets. Angered, the droids fire upon the guard. U finally pass some rolls, and the guard survives. the minigun was hit, however...

Image
The merc's realize that there is no-one on the first floor, but look up, and see there prize. 2 mercs prepare to invoke the laws of implied stairs to do there bidding, while the third gets ready to provide suppressing fire if needed.\

Image
it turns out that the shot had unjammed the minigun! Yay! the guard concentrates the fire on the first squad, and causes plenty of hits, but AGAIN suffer crap rolls on to wound. WHY!?!

Image
Also, during the last round of shooting, the weapon had jammed again! ( i suspect sabotage!) And the droids are still pissed off, if you can't tell.

Image
DAMN, DAMN, DAMN!!! I rolled a 1 to unjam a weapon, and it broke (I have a 2+ roll be a unjam, a 1 is a break). Well this sucks!!!

Image
Image
Image
But whats this? the guard picks up a grenade, and lobs it over to the droids.

Image
Image
Perfect! I finally roll some critical successes, and it lands right in the mix of the droids! :twisted: :D :lol:

Image
Yes! massive blast radius of 9"! critical successes for the win! my luck is starting to change!

Image
FML!!! yes, this was the blast damage roll... :fu:

Image
Image
I use the rule of fudge to explain what happened. The boxes were mislabeled, and the grenade he picked up was really just a harmless smoke/ signal grenade.

Image
One of the diplomats hurries upstairs to see how the fight was going. the guard is hunkering down behind the wall, and the droids are seemingly unaffected by the grenade.

Image
And now the mercs have stormed the upper room, capturing 2 more of the diplomats! :(

Guard, you are going to be fired!

The one merc with the rifle goes to knock out the one diplomat with his rifle butt.

Image
*gasp*

Image
oops, that's not good...

Image
-uhh, sir, what do we do?
-I don't know! Figure it out!
-err, okay sir.

Image
Image
Image
hmm, lets see if this works...

Image
*squelch!*

Image
Image
Huzza! hooray for complicated brain/spinal cord/ head in general surgery during battle!


Image
Image
Image
The prisoners now are sent down stairs, and the third merc is tasked on getting them back to the carrier thingy. the other 2 prepare to storm the upstairs

Image
The diplomat desperately tries to get the radio to work, but it doesn't.

Image
the guard pulls out a high powered handheld radio, and it should get through the jamming.

Image
"hey, diplomat! catch this and use it to call for help!"

Image
*throws*

Image
*sails through the air* the diplomat doesn't catch the radio.

Image
Image
Image
Image
flies off the side of the tower, *splash!* *glug glug glug*

Image
Both together: "we're so FUCKED!!!"

Image
Guard: "well, it was nice knowing you, but i have to go. I'll take the life raft, and find some help, you stay here, and don't die! see-yeah!

Image
Dives off the tower, life raft in hand.

Image
As he is falling, the cord is pulled, and out comes the inflating life raft.

Image
The raft fully inflated.

Image
he hits the boat and cracks it in half!

Image
the guard climes into one of the halfs

Image
the other section starts to fill with water and sink.

Image
the other side has sunken as he has climed into the remainder of the raft.

Image
he starts to drift away

Image
meanwhile, the merc's capture the last prisoner

Image
Image
Image
one of the merc's noticed the half of a boat, and started to fire at it. he wasn't very successful.

Image
Image
the prisoners are marched to the transport.

Image
he is forgotten for the entire game. we just say that he was the source of interference, and is also sending a ransom video to Skyian officials on what happened, and demanding $ to release the hostages.

Image
the merc's point of view from the tower.

END OF GAME:
SKYIAN DEFEAT
MERCENARY'S ACQUIRED 4/4 OBJECTIVES, NO CASUALTIES
