A hammer's Slammer (Crucible Rules) game
A minor feeder road to the capitol.
A reinforced platoon of Commonwealth troops holds the hill
The hill covers the shallow valley
Light armour supports an infantry platoon - this is a minor road after all
Platoon Co is on the holo-net
Zoomed in (Holo-net is from Khurasan)
Free Foreign Legion (FFL) troops pour into the valley from behind a hill
The FFL are light infantry on GEV transports
The FFL back up the infantry with a platoon of medium panzers
Sneaky!
The CW troops win initiative and react
Missiles out!
Tri-barrels whir and sight on the panzers
Powergun rounds tear into the front armour, finally beating through to the interior - one panzer brewed up
The others move to cover the infantry assault
Good shooting!
One CW light AFV brews up
The other has a lucky escape
FFL infantry surge forwards to assault the CW troops
BLAMMO!, one CW TU down, one pinned badly
The front to the FFL assault
Time for missile resolution - incoming!
BOOM, top-hit and splat!
The FFL missile whiffs...
FFL win the initiative, and not surprisingly, in go the infantry
Charge!
FFL pin down the ATGM teams in assault
BLAM, BLAM, BLAM! FFL mow down CW TUs
Its looking grim, but strangely, the CW have not lost over 50%, yet...
The CW forces try to counter attack
But the assault goes badly, both ATGM teams are lost
Meaning, the Commonwealth lose over 50% and now surrender the hill to the FFL
What a fun short game. Its been a while since I played HS Crucible rules, I had a bit of time so I thought I'd play a small-detatchment game. I'd forgot how easy and fast these rules are to play. And, as a bonus they work well for infantry as well as armour.
So, what now, perhaps the Commonwealth will counterattack?
