The Battle for the Derelict Ship - Turn 6
Posted: Fri Jun 24, 2022 4:09 pm
Sorry for the delay, life happens!
Battlecruiser - Thetrollgineer
The Battlecruiser focuses fire on the Eagle it shot at previously, bombarding it with laser shot after laser shot.
The Eagle is completely destroyed, unable to digest that amount of firepower.
Thankfully the bridge detaches from the burning wreck, and flies away as fast as it can.
Assyrians - Cracjaw
The Star of Assyria continues to fly away from the battle, and restores a shield point as well.
The fighters decide to engage the Battlecruiser, opening fire as they fly directly at it.
Both shots connect, but fail to breach the Battlecruiser's armor.
Sensing the end is near, and realizing this is their best bet at damaging the Battlecruiser, both fighters kamikaze into the hulking ship!
They manage to chip off another SP.
Neo-Prussia - Bragallot
After boosting weapons, the remaining Eagle and the Dominator turn around to engage the Battlecruiser.
FIRE EVERYTHING!
They take 2 more SP off the behemoth.
The remaining mobhunters regroup and get into formation.
They fire a laser volley right at the Yamato Cannon, but due to poor damage rolls, it survives intact.
Then the fighters use their remaining movement to get out of the Battlecruiser's way.
The Himmelsjäger attempts to convince the Assyrians to stop fighting, but fails.
Akkadians - ArchyX74
The Assault Cruiser fires one of it's boarding pods at the Battlecruiser!
Unfortunately the pod suffers a critical failure and explodes on the Battlecruiser's port side instead of docking.
After failing to somehow boost the weapon systems with booze, the Akkadians fire at the Battlecruiser. They fail to damage it, however.
Then the Cruiser continues moving forward.
The Akkadian fighters make their way back towards the derelict ship, but now find an Assyrian cruiser in their path.
Immortals - NPC
The last Immortal missile relentlessly chases it's target, narrowly missing response fire from the anti-fighter guns.
BOOM! It impacts onto the shields, knocking them offline.
Meanwhile, inside the Assault Cruiser:
Immortals
The Terrorkhan continues to attack the Akkadian marine, but once again, she just barely manages to parry his blade.
The shotgun guy moves up and somehow manages to miss at nearly point-blank range!
Two more Immortals advance and combine fire onto the Akkadian officer.
After having his hand cut off and being roasted with flames, he finally bites the dust.
The flamer again torches the Akkadians.
And again the flames prove to be ineffective.
Akkadians
These marines return fire, but one's rifle jams.
Thankfully just one was enough to drop another Immortal!
And the female marine successfully disengages and opens fire onto the Terrorkhan, but fails to pierce his armor.
Akkadian Marine: "Fall back! We've been overrun!"
And so, the Akkadians bail.
They regroup in the hallway.
And at the other end, the much needed reinforcements finally arrive! A MAOX wielding a morning-star minigun, and an Akkadian dual-wielding OTCs arrive.
They get into a more favorable position and brace themselves.
And just like that, the Immortals arrive.
