Well simon didn't like this. Early EA vs Centauri Blockade run War Level.
He was the runner and decided to feild his adira using Ubarachs model. I thought fine as this was our campaigns second turn and the first battle of it. I decided to take everything i could loads of hyperion missile and commands exclusively. 2 nova. 4 olympus half of which were gunships. A shedload of tethys and a couple of orestes.
Things started fine for him. APTE gettin acorss the table fast. I then open fire with my missiles and get something like 8 crits reducing him to speed 1. Then he suffers no damage control. No way he could win now.
My ships all closed in for the kill. The movemet phase consisted of the terms i move the tethys your turn. Then the phrase turn to boresight said repeatadley. SHooting from the adira was poor and not very well placed in my opinion. The things he should have shot where the missile hyperions as they were critting him to death.
As for crits half the dice rolled today i came up with a 6. He had no traits left at the end. About 13 crits and was getting destroyed by large ammounts of hyperions and orestes.
Aftermath was pretty sweet. All my ships got refits for just being their. The tethys all got duties as i was hoping fo the you get a new ship and i did. The adira is very powerful but i was just lucky.
Howerver one thing i have learnt today is that the games so much better in giant scale games. Squadrons of hyperions are so much fun. Shame i couldn't find the counters for the sggitariuses the way i was rolling he would have been dead so much quicker.
The centauri got 1 rutarian flight ut of that game. So thats a fighter flight costing 50RR!
