Durgama Takeover

- We've detected movement in Starboard Battery corridors. It seems Aleph strike team is approaching our positions
- Good. I've missed those times of fighting Aleph. We'll gladly take them on, escepecially after our training with Corregidor units. We're lucky to have Fiddler and Avicenna to support us. Deploy them along Riot Grrls and wait for Aleph to strike. Stop their advance and then strike back. Let's let their fake bodies feel some fear.
- exchange between Nomad scout and Tcional, Taskmaster from Bakunin

Mission played was Countermeasures.

Riot Grrls Fireteam deployed Missile Launchers on structures in the middle and left side with Avicenna and Fiddler on the ground. Pi-Well ready to advance on the left flank with Chimera covering Lieutenant designed by Taskmaster commander. Right side fairly loose.

Atalanta decides to strike first into long range defenses. Myrmidon on her disposal deploys smoke screen and she goes out of cover to gain sight on one of the Riot Grrls. They exchange a single shot but fail to achieve anything. Another exchange and Atalanta leaves nothing behind. Only a gaping hole in a place where she was when missile hit her. Myrmidon tries to get down to put smoke screen further, but get's hit just as well.

2 enemy units down. We should be able to have more freedom from enemy snipers from now on. - Riot Grrl, Annie, reports.

Ekdromoi lands next to some holographic civilians the Phalanx brought with them to distract Nomad troopers and decides to pull some deisgnation trick to target Nomad HVT and succeeds.

- I see another one wanting to taste our rockets. ... Damn, he dodged this one. - Mia, second Missile Launcher wielder.
- Well, then we're gonna have to peel him out. Pi-Well, your turn - Laura, the Moderator designated as lieutenant of the defense by the Taskmaster
- Roger, roger - this guy really loves old school references...

- Enemy flashlight eliminated
- Enemy flashlight went missing under fire
- Approaching enemy Machaon. WHOOOPS, it's just a Myrmidon. Need support, Pi-Well under fire. Enemy down, unit system failure critical.
- Fiddler, could you take care of that?
- Yes, Ma'am. Follow me - glancing back at Avicenna and third Riot Grrl.

When Pi-Well was firing on a now dead Myrmidon he got hit by a ricochet from Myrmidon's Chain Rifle. Fiddler pulled up to have sights on the inactive Pi-Well and hit him twice with the Gizmokit. Pi-well's systems reset and he was back up again (Test Run done).

- Thank you, Fiddler. I can now get back into the fight. Target in sight - said Pi-Well as he got distracted by Aleph projected HVTs.
He approached the HVT, pulled an Identity Check and then Net-Undermine.

*Meanwhile in the other parts of the corridors*
-...
- Guess I should move. Yeah, I better get going and shoot something.
- I wander where all the Aleph units are.
- Oh, I smell someone. SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND. OH! YOU WANT TO GET CLOSE AND PERSONAL?! FINE!

Machaon decied to do something about that peski little thing next to him and took out Pi-Well entirely.

- Hmmm, I should wait for commands, right? They will tell me when something important will appear to be done. I don't sense anyone anyway. This Killer Hacking equipment is much more useful than I thought it would be, after all they can fry my brain as well. - KHD Zero thoughts when idling in the corner of Bakunin positions.
Suddenly Ekdromoi pops out, runs to a container next to the Zero and touches it like a thirsy man would want to do at the first sight of water. (I guess that's what happens when the only objective you can do is Mapping)
- Yup, that's my cue - as he's winding up electronic systems inside his equipment. Next thing Ekdromoi knows is blackness of his consciousness.

*back to Morlock fighting the Thrasymedes*
- OH YOU'RE THAT FANCY ALEPH BOY, THRASYMEDES, ISN'T THAT RIGHT?! HOW DO YOU LIKE MY OTHER FRIEND?!
- Yeah, I thought so... You guys, all mighty, can't even fight properly...

*cue in shot on a Zero*
- What should I do now?
- Get the enemy HVT
- All right, Ma'am, moving on.
*a minute or so goes by*
- Yup, got him... or not... dammit, can't figure this one out. OH! Got it right this time and I've found some data. What should I do with it?
- Come back and try finishing off this pesky Ekdromoi.
- Yes, ma'am.
*After 4 failed rolls to Espionage and two tries to finish of Ekdromoi, Zero accomplished Espionage and Predator objectives*

- Yeah, let's try this toy they finally allowed us to use in the field. Meteor, DEPLOY.
- Landing successfull. Proceeding to target.

- I made contact with the enemy, but I can't see him very well, he's messing with my vision systems.
- ...
- Where did he go?
- Why can't I move?
- I've got him - Zoe barged in - I'm gonna light him up. Go Vertigo.
*shwooosh*
- Enemy eliminated - confirmed Vertigo

- Good job, Laura. Our scanners are detecting enemy grabbing their wounded and falling back to the hole they came from. That was a great show of the new skills you caught up from our Corregidor brothers. Keep it up. You can fall back now and help with securing inner parts of the Rail Cannon. End of transmission. - Tcional
