The Infinity Run

Recommended Posts

Tonight, I played Seth in the Abandon Sip scenario. I won WIP and went first. I ran one team to the control room and released a pod. The Muyib link  ran into a pod and left. Seth advanced his robots with a series of coordinated orders to challenge the pods on my right flank. I tried to blast my way through the robots, but his o e bot would not go down. Then, Seth killed my LT and my COC using his sensor Sat Lock skill and a guide missile shot across the board through the a room to where the prone Farzan was hiding. I hunkered down my remaining  models in Suppresive Fire. Seth  could not open the door to the escape pod with his last orders with one set of troops, but two left on the other side. I won 4-2.

Kay-bee-O-bee,

 

So this is the big gantry piece I have been working on. It is built from Mantic Deadzone pieces (If you don't want yours, please give them to me I promise I will put them to good use). It is massive. The inner square is slightly larger than an eight by eight square. That means a command room can me set into the middle. The piece blocks the middle of the table quite well. The corners are all meant to be elevators, so troops can easily get up to the second level. All the second level corner pieces have a door way that can connect to the three other gantry pieces that I have built and painted (two are small and one is one side of the big piece). This allows dynamic play on a second battlefield level. 

Last week end, I sprayed the piece red over the gradient paint scheme below to create a non-uniform paint layer with shadowing and hightlights pre-built in the process. Now, I need to break out the big brushes and start to coat the monster very red. Secondary highlight layers will come later.

 I played Joel and Seth tonight. We played the Hunting Party Mission on my table.IMG_6674.thumb.jpg.76b6bff5a18436dc2bb3af748853eefd.jpg

 

I won initiative and had Joel set up to the right.

He had me go first. The game lasted one turn.

He hid, so I pressed the game. Ny Muyibs took tower and went into suppressive fire. The Ghulams went up the long gantry and won every firefight. The Ranger went down, then the Grunt HMG, two Mavericks, and the rest of the Grunt team.

Joel started his first turn in retreat with this in his dead pool.594750243da88_JoelDead.thumb.jpg.5af35e9ef41bf6e06ca19b8e0b30aa62.jpg 

 

I failed to hunt anything, but Joel had a minimum of specialists, so there were few targets.
