Oh Fuck, Skeletons! - LET'S FIGHT! - signup

It was a peaceful day on Ulna, a modern-day Teklevel planet in the Perwar sector.
Until...
Jimmy Tinder: 'Oh this is going to be so hype guys!'
Gaelle Strum: 'Look, LARPing is fun and all but I'm not sure we should tamper with landmarks.'
Harald Kain: 'Yeah man, my dad would be hella mad if he had to pay my bail like last time when we stole that ancient biplane!'
Jimmy Tinder: 'Come on, where's your sense of adventure, ya wusses!'
*creaaak*
Jimmy Tinder: 'Whoa I thought this was only for sho-'
Suddenly, eldritch beams of light burst out of the tomb.
WHO DARES DEFILE THE SLUMBER OF SAKMUTH THE 27th!? FOOLISH MORTALS, FEEL THE WRATH OF THE IMMORTAL KING!
Gaelle Strum: 'Good job Jimmy.'
Harald Kain: 'Oh fu-'
The enraged skeletal rabble starts decimating the populous.
Police officer Doolin: 'Curses, those blasted nerds ruin everything.'
*kzzzk*
Police officer Doolin: 'GP HQ, this is Officer Doolin. We have an EA-0823* class crisis happening on Ulna Colony. I repeat, we have an EA-0823 class crisis happening on Ulna Colony.
*EA-0823: Eldritch Abomination of Unknown Origin
GP HQ: 'We have received your message officer and are about to dispatch strike teams. Our orbital relay shall project ELP* on the area.'
*ELP - Engine Lockdown Protocol
Police officer Doolin: 'All in a days' work. I'm sure the GP can handle the rest.'
All automobiles suddenly shut down.
Orbital Announcer: 'Citizens of Ulna Colony, we have just received a distress call about an EA-0823 class crisis happening in your area as of now. We advise you to evacuate in a calm and controlled manner before the Galactic Patrol Orbital Relay seals the area, utilizing our latest IsoTech(tm) forcefield system. We appreciate your cooperation and hope you will have a nice day!
So I figured I'd do something in the spirit of spookmas and offer you something completely different!
Map Overview:
The map is a 3x3 Grid of 32x32 baseplates, starting from the top, going left to right:
A1 - T-junction with fire engine
A2 - Sir Rupert's Castle of Awesome(tm)
A3 - Turn with street sweeper
B1 - Turn with coffee stand
B2 - T-junction with rad roadster
B3 - Junction with yellow jeep
C1 - Riverside with Ancient Tomb of Horrors
C2 - Road with yellow smart car
C3 - Construction site
Map Rules:
All vehicles are under the effect of ELP - Engine Lockdown Protocol: This means they cannot be used for driving and are stationary. They still provide cover and explode if their engines get hit.
Teams and Objectives:
Civilians (Silent-sigfig) - A lot of generally useless minifigs caught in the crossfire. The controller of this faction has 1 turn to evac as many figures as possible from the map before orbital lockdown.
Civilians include:
The staff of Sir Rupert's Castle of Awesome(tm) (piltogg) - The enthusiastic and a little emotionally dead crew of the most famous medieval-themed franchise throughout Perwar.
The Galactic Patrol:
Strike Team Cobalt (Vami IV) - 3 galactic marines
Strike Team Granite (lawmaster) - 3 galactic marines
Rangers (Quantumsurfer) - 3 rangers, 1 robo-dog
1 strike team = 1 player, obviously. More fun that way.
Sakmuth the 27th (Scratch)
1 hero, 18 skeleton warriors, 6 skeleton archers
