DEAD SNAKE WALKING battle report:
Town square, venus:
The Baroness kneeling before the choping block, waiting for the excutioners axe to fall. In the crowd, behind the reporters and onlookers, stood 7 men in long trenchcoats.
"This is Alpha team, target is in sight were moving in."
The coats fall to ground, the 7 men reveiling themselves to be cartel police force. Just as they were about to move onto the stage to take the Baroness the Excutioner drops to the ground in front of them. The obvious victim of a bullet to the head.
"Who F*@%!! fired that shot"
" None of us sir!!! "
"Look to the sky."
The Cartel team leader looked up to the sky.
he heard them before he saw them.
" COBRRRRRRAAAAAAAA!!!"
Touching down around the Baroness .no less then 8 Aero Vipers.
" damn snakes!!!"
at that moment the crowd panics. To the cartel's right side he can see Bauhaus Wolfheads working their way down the street responding to the crazed crowd.
"This is team leader!!! Situation is RED HOT repeat RED HOT !!!!"
" Its going to hit fan folks and were right in the middle!"
********************************************************************************
JIbba, scott and me (iron panda couldnt make it) played Dead Snake Walking. The fight was short and bloody like I thought it would be. I had Cartel police and Imperial doom troopers (infiltrate them right to the baroness) and 1 squad of peace keepers and 1 squad of agents.
Jibba had 2 squads of banshees (aero vipers) some dogs squad (evil dog squad) and a charater that gave him unholy initiative.
scott had wolfheads (with 2 rocket launchers my I add) 2 squads of dragoons???( I think) and GT off road.
Jibba and I was familar with this scenerio so our forces were geared to grab the baroness and run.
scott had a more traditional line up ( though I didnt think he would bring a gt off road
).
By turn 1 one Cartel cop squad, Imperial doom trooper, 2 squads of banshees, squad of dogs and host of civlians were in the center of table surrounding the baroness. since noone is allowed to shot anyone on turn one. (scenerio rule) only some minior HTH, Bauhaus slowly marches up the table.
by turn 2 The cops hold ground and shot up a bunch of of Aero Vipers, jibba jumps out with the baroness
bauhaus shot some rockets. gt offroad starts an fight with agents in my side of the table.
Combined fire power of cartel and bauhaus kills the squad with the baroness, droping her on jibba's side of the table. the 2nd squad of Aero vipers jump out to pick her up. Combined Bauhaus and Cartel firepower drops the 2nd
Air viper squad to 2 men (one is still holding the baroness). They pass their moral.
Turn 3 Jibba last Aero vipers jump off with the baroness.
the rest of jibbas army is killed off (except his charater that lives), Bauhaus and cartel square off for 2 more turns with the target gone and Bauhaus overwhelming firepower, Cartel beat feet.
A fun quick game.
Some quick highlands
all of turn 2...a sweet sweet blood bath
scott out frustation shoots a civilan so he can get a better line of sight on Jibbas dog handler.
To bad Iron Panda couldnt make it. His dark legion would've up the chaos level
The outcome:
Jibba wins so he gets his wish. COBRA is now (fluff wise) free to be its own power.
