No hope hold the bunker.

I took some pics of a game today, we did some thing different. They sides were very unbalanced, the karackens having much less troops and vehicles than the arc fleet. the karackens had to hold onto and stop the arc fleet from blowing up the coms link bunker. The karackens have barbwire that they can place on the board, befor deployment. You need half your movment for troops to pass over them. Tanks can move over fine. Half tracks take a bog test. Walkers and mechs are fine unless barbwire is deployed in depth, then they too take a bog test.
set up and board.
The command bunker.

Arc fleet deployment redy for the task.
Two Karacken light mechs with a light APC.
In the deployment the left side of the battlefield was looking bad for the karackens. And has the game went on it was carnage for the light mechs and Apc. They should have gone up against the infantry but found them selfs in a fight with two medium walkers and a meadium grav tank.
Arc fleet medium Grav tank packs a punch. The two karacken light mechs can dish it out but when hit with this bad boy, its not going to be good.
on fire and in bits the two arc fleet walkers and medium grav tank had done what they set out to do capture the right flank. They did lose one walker but that was a small price to pay. The arc fleet squad on this flank had a missile launcher weapon attachment and it was causing hell for the Karackens.
arc fleet Medium grav Apc and light walkers move up the left flank with Gruntz squad and medic.
The walkers are very nasty with weapon mounts on each arm and missile pods.

Karacken Meadium Apc moves up to engage the arc fleet walkers and Gruntz, followed by the other Karacken Gruntz squad.
Karacken squad moves up to help out the Apc. only to see it blown sky high. The arc fleet Apc is knocked out in return. The light walkers move up to finish of the last of the Kara
ckens. The karacken Gruntz squad on this flank fires at the Arc fleet squad holding out in the rocky middle, but in return is allmost wiped out. The game was lots of fun even if one sided, better postioning from the Karackens may of given them a better chance. The Arc fleet movement and shooting was perfect all game.
