Durgama Takeover

As the smell of wet dog permeates the Port Fire Control Module, the Nomad forces prepare for battle…

Turn One:
Nomads – The Nomads get the drop on the Ariadna scouting force and make a hard push on the left flank with their uberfallKommando. The Cotroller and Pupniks manage to reach the rear of the enemy force unscathed and engage the enemy Mormaer, tearing him limb from limb. Although two pupniks were lost, the controller and last pupnik went on to engage a pair of dog soldiers. Although they managed to wound the dog soldiers, they were slain in their attempt. Their part in the battle was concluded.
The Nomads then pushed up with their Gecko Squadron and infantry, before awaiting the assault from the Ariadnan forces.

Ariadna – Ariadna pushed down the left flank with their injured dog soldiers, while their Chernoborg TAG pushed the centre. The Nomad lieutenant made avitalmistake and had left a minute gap through which she could be seen. The Chernoborg took advantage of this and executed the interventor lieutenant, but not before the Nomads were able to take possession of the TAG.

Turn Two:
Nomads – Suffering from a lack of coordination, the Nomad forces attempted to repel the Ariadna assault to no avail. It seemed that fortune was not with the Ariadna forces as every shot was dodged by the oncoming Ariadna forces.

Ariadna – The Antipodes running down the right flank of the Nomad lines again dodged all incoming fire from the Gecko Squadron holding the Nomad rear. While a malfunctioning jammer spelled the end for the Nomad Heckler sent to intercept them.
In the centre, the Chernoborg had reset and moved it’s way down to the flank of the Nomad lines, dodging several missiles aimed its way, and engaging the Gecko Squadron, disabling one of the machines.
Finally, one of the dog soldiers pushed the centre, avoiding the shots of the Nomad Zero and managed to put an end to Jazz’s hacking attempts.
Things were not looking good for the Nomad forces.

Turn Three:
Nomads – With limited orders, the Nomad forces attempted to consolidate and clear the Ariadnan forces from their objective. The damaged Gecko was brought back to working order, but was unable to make a difference in the coming firefight, being disabled again by a shot from a Dog soldier’s chain rifle. The Gecko was repaired a final time and the Nomad forces prepared for the final onslaught.

Ariadna – The Ariadna Dog Soldiers in the centre managed to seize the objective but was cut down in a hail of bullets, falling from the balcony on to the ground below where the objective was scooped up by a waiting Ariadnan soldier and whisked away to their deployment zone.

The Nomads limped with half of their forces depleted but lived to fight another day.
