Bayerneese VI

Session 28st Sept 08 & 5th Oct 08

That Same Evening
Miranda Golden has invited all current contestants to an evening meal and disco so that the operatives can get to know each other.

Things go quite well, apart from Cherry's insult of Miranda being recorded and broadcast to the watching millions.

Before things could get worse for Cherry Dark Night pull her fat out of the fire by assaulting the Caliban Enterprises base.

All contestants are asked to suit up and help in the battle.

Events from the battle are as follows:

• Dark Night have assaulted the compound, blown a hole in the wall and entered. It looks like they are placing explosives on everything they come across.
• Callum works on finding the detonation codes for the Dark Night explosives, which works after a fashion and he detonates several charges in his local vicinity, killing 3 Dark Night agents in the resulting explosions.
• Karl played hide and seek with two experienced Dark Night operatives that got the better of him. One riddled him with bullets then closed for the kill, while the other looked for Callum with assassination in mind. Karl managed to overcome his injuries and still give a good account of himself, only running away like a pansy girl once.
• Leenisha should be awarded the fire power award for ammo expendature as she went through at least 120 rounds of ammo. All to little effect (see my comments below).
• Fex played the part of a sniper. Shame he was only playing otherwise he would have been effective. Poor Dave just couldn't roll over 5 on his d10 + d6 Shooting skill.
• Cherry gave good support where she could, tossing in blasts of fire and fearing when she was able.
• LZ defended Callum until someone shot at him, then he just ran off after the "bad man" leaving Callum to his own devises.
• Just as the battle was about to turn in favour of Tick-Tick-Boom a group of Dark Night troops using Jump Jets turned up, their aim to kidnap Miranda Golden. The new troops using their mobility advantage quickly took out Fex (only after he threw himself from a container, landing on his head)
  
• Callum was having his own difficulties and in an attempt to removing himself from his own container managed to get himself caught on the damn thing. So he spent a long time being suspended upside down while attempting to make a difference. The difference included throwing an explosive charge "somewhere" then detonating it to see where it landed (possibilities at the time included in the midst of Karl, LZ and two Dark Night "assassins"), shooting Karl in the "vitals" with some 10mm HEAP ammo, right out of his FEN 603 followed up by shooting Miranda in the back with the same ammo. Admitidly he was aiming to shoot the Dark Night jump troopers kidnaping Miranda at the time.
• LZ continued to run around on a rampage, as only a Chagrin can.
• Leenisha helped out as much as she could, but even more ammo wasn't enough.
• Cherry made the best move and picked up Fex's rifle and proved to be a better sniper than him.
  

Just after Miranda was wounded support arrived and rounded up the remaining opposition. The night was won and Tick-Tick-Boom was responsible for this.

Awards:
The team will be awarded 300cr each and 0.3 SCL increase.
Additionally the team will be reimbursed for all costs incurred by the combat. Armour will be repaired, ammunition & drugs will be replaced and medical costs paid.

My thoughts:
I'm sorry that this combat in essence lasted for two sessions. In hindsight I should have not given the opponents the protection which I did. The damage that was required to put them out was far too high.
