A beautiful description will be later, so here i will describe why I didn’t win. We were playing counter measures and my opponent made 1 mission, I had a chance to make 2 but instead of making two (which meant the necessity to roll 11Wip) i have decided to try and kill lieutenat (i failed dramatically). On the last turn i had coup de grace and capture. I made coup with the first unconscious model when i could bring my zhaedan in base contact with first and make a coup de grace with the last, that was guarded by Uxia and her template instead of her rolling and failing dodges, armour saves and regenerations.

May be i also shouldn't have drop the mission where you have to roll wip+3 in base contact with the enemy unconscious model? I don't know, what i know is that mistakes were made and i paid for it. A little later i will write it properly as the first one.

Engines were roaring as the transport entered the atmosphere and pierced blue sky descending towards the black pillars of smoke rising from the snow white complex in the center of emerald forests. Other transports were dashing around either landing or lifting in different areas in a close proximity of the facility. Fires exploded here and there, as the sky was filled with white traces of anti-air missiles. It took some time for lieutenant Lia Amirkhan to get through the white noise of electronic warfare.
"Lieutenant Amirkhan, your codes has been received..." Anonymous liaison officer's voice was as sharp as fiday's blade. "Do you cope?"
"Loud and clear..." She answered while checking the most recent readings and updates on the battle.
"Good, hassassin battlegroups has engaged Phalanx and Morats on the grounds of Xenofarm Gamma. They are keeping the prior in and the latter out. Aleph has requested reinforcements for hours now. An Ariadnian mixed group was spotted in Manticore sector, they aare getting extremely close to the main facility and now endangering our flank. Your task is to engage them and hold them off for as long as possible."
"Message received sir. We will do everything we can. Amirkhan out..."
She looked at her battle weary soldier, some of them were slowly getting back to normal... That would be a task...
"Check your ammo and gear..." she looked at them putting a respirator on her face. Readings signaled that the transport will land in 5. "We are going in to the fry again."

"It is a pleasure to meet someone who is interested in history of the 21st century as I do." Counselor Amina Timerkhan put her teacup on the table and smiled in her chair. "But if you wanted to talk about events of the days gone you shouldn't sneak inside my office when there is nobody here besides me..."
"I agree..." Stranger put his cup on the table too, one could only imagine how artificial muscles of his heavy armour didn't break it on pieces. Apparently he was wearing it often. "actually I was looking for an opportunity to ask you to give me a small thing that has been in possession of your family since the times when we were yet to discover our path to the stars."
"What that would be?" Counselor didn't even try to hide her interest, what was the point after all?

One reconnaissance bot was shot first, the other one survived long enough to trace a liberto sneaking around, a second later he was shot in a back by corporal Anvar Sadit, his blue scarf was seen for several seconds before he turned on his cloacking device again blending with surroundings. Several minutes ago lieutenant Amirkhan's heart colded for such was a fear of roaring bearpod, but aparently its controller loved her "Teddy bear" and kept it covered from danger. Civilians in the area didn't make the situation easy, but such lack of preasure was enough for special agent Anna and her Mukhtars to dash forward. Lia did her best to hold them off almost screaming for a mission and the necesity to follow orders, but apparently Anna was sure that she would het enemy commander in her crosshair, the mistake she paid dearly as Yasmina of mukhtars fell down with a burns from a chausser's flamethrower. She herself got a stray shot and fell unconscious as Mansur of Mukhtars was torn apart by a fire from one of the Ariadnian troops.

"You see counselor..." The stranger took of a silver pocket watch and put it on the table. "I know that your family owns a key to this tiny device. I wish to get it."
Amina took a closer look to the watch, they were fine and at the very same time humbly made.
"Do you really think that I will give you one of my family's heirlooms?"
"I think you will, if I ask..."

Anna woke up suddenly, one second earlier she was injected by a shot of nanomachines by corporal Sadit. She jumped up on her legs and they split up. She rushed forward landing shots in to chausser and engineer that was hiding behind next corner, as he covered he corner with his rifle, a minute later they were pressed hard by other operatives.
Lieutenant picked her men up and rushed forward with them, but they quckly ended up under a hurricane fire. Ariadnians pressed on, haqqislamittes fought back slowly giving up their groud and suddenly...
It all stopped...

"I am asking you counselor, please give me the key from this watch and I promise i will return it imidiately." She looked in stranger's eyes and only now she has noticed it, how couldn't she see it earlier? His eyes were sad and deep as were her great grand father on old pictures her granny used to look at in her music room. She said almost nothing about him, almost...
"I wish, I could..." Her voice was silent as she noticed more and more... Wrinkles... Nose... She was seeing a ghost or...? "But I cannot, for it is now in my daughter's hands. She is fighting there, on the frontline..."

The shooting was over. Preliminary scans and readings presented ariadnians retreat. For a minute the comms were silent and suddenly all channels exploded with cheers and screams of joy. Lieutenant Lia Amirkhan climbed the tallest house with a binocular, the she looked upon the main facility and she got her explanation. Over the top of the battlescared building she saw yellow and black flag. Soldiers surrounded it were shooting in to the sky. It was a victory. Not her, but their...
