Durgama Takeover

Classic biotechvore, with every unit deployed as far forward as they could possibly get. Unfortunately, the left varangian miscalculated her impetuousity and ran forward into 2 linked missile shots from on high.

On the right, the varangian continued to smoke the corridor, allowing the nisses haris to move forward. Using baller Pan-O-grade firepower, the nisses efficiently downed 2 Combined TR REM.

He tried to pick a fight with Agent Dukash, who casually flipped away. The ML REM was not so lucky and was downed. Meanwhile, the camo token on high in the Shas sniper tower kept the fusilier link from climbing up over the top of the central building's roof. Much to the Lt's dismay, the token wound up being a decoy. A couple last-ditch attempts to move did not save either of the bulleteers, the kts doctor, danavas hacker, or a fugazi from the vore

Trapped likes rats in a barrel, Dukash proned and rounded the corner to systematically blast the 3 grounded fusiliers, including the unit's lt, and karhu. They had dodged the jaws into the fire; poor bastids.

Meanwhile, Sheskiin tried poking her head out to deal with the Haidao in his perch; he repeatedly got lucky, taking only a single wound from sustained gunfire.

Feeling the bite of the biotechvore close, the Shas Lt Mentor tried to brave the gap to safety; unfortunately, he was successfully found out and subsequently blasted, a major setback for the Shas force.

Suffering from loss of lt, the remaining troops sought to use what little coordination they had left to consolidate their position. The haidao engineer's gizmokit fizzled and irreparably destroyed what was left of the broken bulleteer nearby. The nisses scaled the building to take position next to the haidao sniper in an attempt to fend off the similarly disorganized and impending Shas counterattack. The haidao shaved a wound off Dukash when he tried to shoot back.

Becoming desperate to break past the two perched troopers on high, first Dukash then Sheskiin tried their hands at uneven gunfights. Sheskiin dropped from a lucky sniper hit, while Dukash survived. The nisses took a hit from Sheskiin, but his armor held and he kept his chin up, like a champion

Confident in the ability of the side-by-side perched bros, the jujak hurtled downrange to deliver a flaming hot present to the rear of the nox link; three of them failed to dodge out of the way, resulting in two cooked shas troopers. The jujak's sputtering flamethrower was then devoured with glee.

Dukash tried one more time to bring down the offending Haidao sniper to allow himself to close the gap; the haidao's unflinching aim brought the elite shas trooper low. At which point, the remaining two survivors tried their best to desperately bring the haidao and nisses down, but failed miserably, bringing the operation to a close.

A number of crucial gunfights went my way; the nisses and haidao survived quite a few sustained gunfights against some really good gunfighters. They allowed me to retain control of the center of the board, effectively locking down the shas force. My buddy also made a probable mistake in sending the mentor forward; with his BTS 7, his odds of surviving the BTS14 hit were pretty good, far better odds than trying to cross the gap, stared down by both the MSV2 Haidao and Nisses.

A number of fun White Company tools allowed me to even seize the center. Varangian are great at providing smoke; the nisses haris throwing out 5 BS13 shots from a mim-3 platform is just amazing at winning gunfights. I'm finding myself developing an addiction; definitely, I'm going to need to pick up some real models and stop using JSA/YJ troops as proxies, haha.
