Brikpocalypse Project turn 2

Post by Theblackdog » Wed Jan 28, 2009 2:11 pm

Lots of carnage, and even more sideways photos.

The Nomad Raiders form an alliance with the Police and the Zombies, but the police and the zombies aren't allied.

Zombies and Mutants

Image
The main zombie force advances up the alleyway.

Image
The Troll and Dimmy rush ahead and join up with the winged Peach.

Image
A dog-headed Spear Zombie and a Peach archer approach the nearest crate, but aren't close enough to open it.

Image
The two flail-wielding skellies also move up. That's a bush, not another crate.

Image
The winged Peach turns around and runs away from the scary stealth trooper.

Massam's Secret Faction, the Police, drop in!

Image
The Police are a squad of troops from a walled city that has survived the collapse of civilization. The individual troops are heavily armored -- with an AV of 7, they're essentially invulnerable to single rifle shots. You'll need to use heavy minifig weapons (Flamethrowers, Bazookas, or Heavy Machine guns -- miniguns don't do that much damage in my rules) to kill them. They're also armed with heavy machine guns. Their Hero, the guy in black, has a flamethrower.

Image
... and he's not afraid to use it!

Image
Three zombies go down. These guys are permanently dead with no chance of revival, since they were killed by fire.

Image
The infantry open up with their heavy machine guns, and four more zombies die. These guys have a chance of coming back to life, though...

Image
The Police's flyer joins the battle, opening up on my flyer. It does no damage...

Image
... so it fires an MKI missile. That doesn't fare any better.

End police turn.

Survivalists

Image
The Stealthtrooper reappears, opening a crate and uncovering...

Image

The Plasma Missile! The Plasma Missile has no blast radius but does 3D10 damage to whatever it hits. One shot only. Three crates are left on the field.

Image
The gun turret on the fort opens fire on the Nomad Raiders' Landship.

Image
The shots do 5 points of structure damage and knock a few minor widgets off the sides and top of the vehicle. One shot gets a critical success for accuracy and kills the Nomads' Bazooka trooper.

Image
Now it's the infantry's turn. The Hero is still out of pistol range, so he grabs a rifle from the dead guy next to him and joins in the fun.
They both miss.

Image
Now it's the grenade launcher's turn. Full auto!

Image
Two shots hit, but the damage rolls are abysmally low. They do no damage to the vehicle, and only succeed in killing a gunner.

The stealth trooper failed his Stealth roll, so he has to remain visible next turn.


Honda-Ziplok Clan


Image
My flyer buzzes the top of the Landship, and my hero jumps out. He fires at the minigunner, but does no damage.

Image
He then uses his Stupendous Feat to fire again at the pilot of the landship. And again does no damage. FAIL.

Image
Meanwhile, my bazooka trooper leaps onto the tank and hangs on for dear life...

Image
The tank crosses the battlefield and lines up on the back of the Nomads' Landship...

Image
This may well be the coolest picture I have ever taken.

Image
BOOM! 9 points of structure damage and 2 kills.

Image
My flyer flies away... and... wait for it...

Image
BACKSTAB'D! My troops advance and fire on the Survivalists.

Image
Well, on the one that's in range, anyway. The flamethrower trooper is dead. My original plan was to use my hero to hijack the Landship and fire its bombardment cannon at the Survivalists, but that failed when my hero couldn't kill the driver.

Nomad Raiders

Image
The Nomads' landship turns towards the Survivalists' fort, and its heavy weapons fire on the Survivalists' gun turret. The minigunner puts down his weapon to man one of the two turrets.

Image
The turret is destroyed. The turret gunner is thrown to the ground but otherwise unharmed.

Image
The infantry on the vehicle fire next.

Image
The Survivalist rifleman and grenadier are killed. The hero lives, though.
End Nomads' turn.

Image
On the other side of the field, the Grenade Zombie comes back to life.

Image
Field Overwatch. The remaining crates are marked in red.

Elaborate? I'm totally not satisfied with this. I mean, I haven't been injured at all yet.

Well, since this is the same style as TBD Project (and, really, a bit worse), it isn't as creative as that. But do it untill the end, battle endings are always cooler.

I like it more than TBD -- the sides have a bit more variety to them than my first battle did. Of course, sometimes you come up with a team that just doesn't work. I need to apologize to Moron for making the survivalists so underpowered, I thought their fortress would be more powerful than it turned out to be. What could be improved?

You could always make a new objective or something...

I'm already making a lot of new rules, like the crates and the Last Man Standing rule. The crate idea is working out pretty well. As for Last Man Standing... we'll see.

Update: Finished the zombies' turn. They killed 3 policemen including the hero, and opened the crate by the two houses. Awaiting orders from everyone else.

We have orders for everyone but the Survivalists (Moronstudios). Massam needs to clarify some minor details.

You didn't miss anything, birdman. Nothing happened to you.

Still waiting on Moron.

IT wasn't cheap, you knew there was a mystery faction, and you put a bunch of your guys in an alleyway. But yeah, I kinda felt bad, but apparently you killed almost all of my guys.
