Battle for the Yellow Ruins

Post by Semaj Nagirrac » Sun Mar 27, 2011 1:47 am

The foreigners found us in our sacred ruins, but this time we were prepared. Everybody knew their orders and moved out accordingly.
Image

The foreigners had already begun marching towards our base.
Image

Image
Our line infantry began to move towards them, but...

Image
Image
...an enemy sharpshooter removed the point man.

Image
Image
Special Forces moved forward and eliminated the sharpshooter.

Image
The enemy came up to begin trading volleys.

Image
Our new rockets proved useful against the foreigners.

Image
The end of the minigunner threat proved to be a huge boost to our morale. We had not forgotten the destructive power they brought with them.

Image
Another rocket fired...

Image
... and hit a foreigner!

Image
Image
But not without a price.

Image
However, one good turn deserves another.

Image
Again, the snipers proved valuable in combat.

Image
Their accurate shots helped to thin out the enemy line.

Image
Image
The line infantry finished off the last soldier. We had won!

Or so we thought...

Image
"Captain Nagirrac! This is Gldyrn of Beta Group 5. We have spotted a walker!"

Image
"Kill the Avalonians! Except for Nagirrac. We need him alive!"
"As you wish, General Atazir!"

Image
Image
Image

Image
"Destroy their holy place!"

Image

Image
"Sir! I can hit the leg! I only need to aim just a bit to the right and..."

Image
"My lord! Don't leave me!"
"You die for the glory of Mordred!"

Image
Image
"I shall deal with the Avalonian myself."

Image
"I did it sir! I killed General Atazir!"

Image
"NO!"

Image
"Well, well, well... Semaj Nagirrac is all alone now. There's no where left to run. Lay down your weapon and come with me now."
"Surrender to you? I'd die first."

Image
"That can be arranged. Except, my master has commanded me to bring you alive, and I will not shame myself by killing you."

Image
Image
"All right, you got me."

Image
"Judo chop!"

Image
"Shoot you with his gun..."

Image
"...and now you die!"

Image
The assassin had terribly fast reflexes.

Image
Image
"Your skill with the sword is not as good as mine."
"Your aim isn't that great either, Nagirrac."

Image
"Now, you will come with us. My master will show you a new definition of pain."

Image
We were defeated. My people lay dead while General Atazir and the assassin stole me away. As for my life, it is in the hands of the foreigners.

This was cool, and nicely story-driven.

This was my favorite pic.

This was very nice did you play this or was it a predetermined ending.

Very nice battle. Those Avalonians had it coming for being such xenophobes. ^_^

Nice battle, nice to know you're (your account) is not dead.

What should we do about this, should we organize an orbital and armored combined assault to fuck the foreigners or should we wait?

"Avalon has seen a great day of rejoicing! The foreigners flee at our presence! Death's work has been averted! The traitor, Semaj Nagirrac, is slain and once again, the galaxy will bend it's knee to those who's birthright it is to rule all in existence!"

Image
"Never again shall our beloved world fall prey to those with evil intentions in their hearts! From this moment forward, we open our doors to those foreigners who wish to make commerce with us!"

Meanwhile...

Image
"My master wishes to know the progress of your torture. Have you broken the Avalonian yet?"

"His resistance to our invitations is perhaps a little stronger than we expected. But do not worry, General Atazir, Nagirrac will break soon."

Image
"I thank you for bringing him to me in one piece. No one likes to bite into an apple covered in bruises."

Image
"My master is pleased with your performance thus far, but he needs you to work quicker. The timing of this is most important."

Image
"Tell your master that we ninja work on our own time."

Image
"Then perhaps it would be best if my men and I taught you the meaning of haste, hmm?"

Image
"Be careful when you threaten me, General. You should plan ahead before you choose to alter our deal."

Image
Image
"Now where were we?"

Image
"If your master is not pleased with our performance, then let him tell us himself. Inform him that I will not treat with his lackey any longer. Had it not been for us, then Nagirrac would have escaped."

Image
"My master will alter the deal as he pleases. You ninja do not frighten us. Perhaps it is time we parted ways."

"It is too late for that now. You promised us more OT than we could dream of. We will not depart until we are paid in full."

Haha, awesome. great continuation, can't wait to see how this plays out. I love the Master Ninja combo... Also, I'm guessing the general announcement dude is evil?
