Brikspace Turn 8

Post by Theblackdog » Wed Apr 01, 2009 7:15 am

The final turn approaches!

Image
The fighters charge, and the bomber does two points of damage to the freighter. One more hit will kill it. I didn't have any good way to show the hits on the freighter because it's studless -- sorry.

Image
The defense field frigate continues to brake.

Image
The Republic frigate makes a last-ditch ramming attack on the Hellfury, but since it's a head-on attack the Hellfury has a chance to respond with its main gun. The last Coalition warship is out of the game -- it's up to the fighters now.

Image
The freighter continues to drift along.

Image
The Tiger Shark frigate decelerates hard and aims both its guns at the fighter squadron. One direct hit takes out the bomber.

Image
The Hellfury rotates around and fires a missile from its rear launcher. The rear-firing light missiles are more accurate than the main gun and forward-firing heavy missiles. It has 15 light missiles left, although I suspect that this statistic is rather moot.

Image
One of the fighters is shot down!

Image
Overwatch. The one remaining fighter still has a tiny chance of stopping the freighter, but the win will probably go to the pirates.

Image
Captain Cutlass reaches the control chair and sits down. The ship will be able to jump next turn.

Kills
Shark Squadron: 1
Hellfury: 2

Deaths
Raptor Squadron: 2
Republic: 1

Damage points given
Raptor Squadron: 2
Shark Squadron: 1
Hellfury: 2

Damage points taken
Raptor Squadron: 2
Freighter: 2
Republic: 1

Orders due in 48 hours. The fighters and the Defense Frigate will get a chance to make their moves before the freighter can jump.

well, one tiny fighter against a massive spaceship, i reckon the win is definitely to the pirates. unless you give the fighter some crazy last ship standing special heroic feat. i don't know, maybe some star wars xwing to deathstar style thing
CAKE OR DEATH? That is the question...

If a Luke Skywalker-like minifig is piloting the fighter, then it has a big chance of winning.

Just have the fighter shoot a proton torpedo into the exhaust pipe of the ship. That always solves everything.

You'll need a higher accuracy roll to hit, but since this is the last turn I'll rule that this is an acceptable attempt. Waiting on jifel for orders.

... still waiting. Deadline is 24 hours. Other (former) Coalition players can submit orders for jifel's fighter should they so desire. If jifel doesn't respond within the time limit, your orders will be used.

Sorry, sorry. I have been a school. I will send in orders for a last ditch effort. Wish me luck!
