| Midori Hamano and Donovan Szerajain vs. Kalimir, Mars |
| Klaxons sound loudly as commanding officials run to their posts. Mobile Suit bays open almost like clockwork, as GINN units begin streaking out of the bays. Following them, the CGUEs keep close line with their lesser armed counterparts. In the distance is seen a contingent of mobile suits. The GINNs begin to line up, beam weapons in ready position, while the CGUEs begin flying toward their targets. Suddenly, 2 GINNs and a turret tower explode almost as if from nothing, then another GINNs head blows clear off. Distracted momentarily, the remaining GINNS begin panicking. The turret towers are deftly looking for a target when a sonic boom sounds. Temporarily thrown off, the GINNs don't have enough time to warn the CGUEs en route. |
| The CGUE pilots see their pray now, and begin to quietly cackle, as they notice the small numbers of the enemy. Advancing further, readying to fire, the CGUEs are caught completely blind. One has time to shout "Heat source detected at 6 o'clock!" before 3 detonate in a missile shower. The RE-GZ Custom flys by the CGUEs, and pulls an 8 G Barrel roll while the Z plus C1 changes course to return to the Kalimir area. Flying at extremely close proximity at a very high speed, the RE-GZ nearly scratches the faces of the CGUEs as it passes. Releasing it's remaining 3 missiles into more CGUE targets, Donovan transforms the birdlike mobile suit in order to further attack |
| The jegans are holding their own against other CGUEs, but the battle of attrition is becoming a hard one. 2 jegans and one AoV GINN are lost before they can successfully dispatch of the remaining CGUEs. |
| Meanwhile, back at Kalimir, Midori flies top speed, Riding directly past the turret towers. In an effort to destroy the attacking Gundam, the turrets chase her with firepower, just as Midori plans. The towers fire intersects with each other, destroying 2 more towers. the GINNs aren't fairing well, as one has already accidentally been destroyed by friendly fire. Midori transform her mobile suit and begins to autotrack the defending GINNS with her hip cannons, while using her Smart Gun to pick off turret towers. One GINN sneaks up behind her, and is smacked with the barrel of the smartgun. The remaining GINNS pool together, to their own mistake, only to all be obliterated by the beam cannon of the RE-GZ save for one. All in all, 2 GINNs and 1 CGUE still stand. The AoV attack force holds their fire, as the white flare is sent up. Kalimir surrenders, and the pilots of the remaining suits drop from their cockpits, their hands behind their heads. Battered from the fight, the RE-GZ and Z-Plus nearly glow in the sunset light. |
| Hyaku Shiki vs. El Dorado (Side 1) ?Mobius Recon Squadron has detected an unidentified Mobile Suit.? The colony command defense center is one of the two strategic strongpoints of Side 1. ?Don?t let the unit get close. Bring back the Mobius. Begin even bombardment with the mega particle cannons and beam turrets.? ?We have lost contact with the Mobius Squadron.? ?Well then, bring up the Starks. Have them join the bombardment. I want the regular Jegans as Colony defense.? ?Aye.? Ryo Alonzo brings the Hyaku Shiki on full throttle towards El Dorado. ?I?m sure that?s not ALL they got ?eh?? asks Ryo, ?YEOW!? A volley of sizzling mega particle shots flew by, narrowly missing the Hyaku Shiki. Smaller beam shots bounces off the Hyaku Shiki?s golden anti-beam coating like raindrops. ?Need to get closer?? said Ryo, gunning the suit?s verniers. The clay bazooka dropped into his left hand, as the right hand raised the beam rifle. A shower of missiles caught him by surprise. Zooming the Hyaku Shiki?s camera, he sees the line of Stark Jegans targeting him from a distance. A mad dash to strike them down at close range was interrupted by numerous Jegan-type MS. Slowly, Ryo works his way to the first of the Stark Jegans, throwing away his empty clay bazooka. Unfortunately for the lone warrior, the rest of the Stark Jegans began coordinating with the rest of the colony?s defenses. In disgust, Ryo withdrew. |
| Result: Kalimir Taken |
| ?Captain.? Altecha looks at the helm who explains, ?Airspace control requests us to move. We are in the flight path of a Komusai?? Altecha nods, and the Archangel-class ship rumbles. The Valkyries? flagship is above near the center of Von Braun City. In the dark confines of the Komusai, a digital clock reaches zero. The high-energy engines of the long range craft soars to life and dashes for the Avalon . ?HELM!? shouts Altecha amongst the alert sirens, ?up starboard 20 degrees!? The large ship barely dodges the craft which flies by crashing beyond the city on the moon?s surface. ?All personnel level 1 Battle Alert,? orders Altecha,? Get us away from Van Braun! Engines at 1/2! Load missile tubes, and bring up the CIWS turrets!? The ship shakes. ?Enemy fire from behind!? Raven peers through the targeting sights onboard the Mudrock Gundam. The 300mm cannons fire in unison. ?Lower Engine banks hit! Down to half-power!? Chuck?s Rowel?s face appears on a sub-screen, ?Gundam Ashtray-01 requests permission for launch!? Jason Waldvogel?s face pops up to on screen, ?Same here Alt! Let me launch!? A nod from Altecha, ?Prepare for simultaneous launch! Jason, you?ll have to use your Aile frame? there?s too much of a risk if you use your launcher this close to the city.? Two sparkles of light departed from the Avalon. Raven flips back the targeting scope and jams the Mudrock?s thrusters. ?Where is he?? asks Chuck as the Ashtray began scanning the jabbed edges of the moonscape. ?There!? shouts Jason, firing on the Mudrock with his beam rifle. Raven is keeping the Mudrock as close to the ground as he can. ?He?s headed for the Avalon!? shouts Chuck firing his beam rifle as he joins the pursuit with the Strike Gundam. Altecha was watching the suits on a tactical screen, ?SAM missiles! Start laying out a projectile screen!? The Mudrock dodges most of the missiles but began taking damage. Raven gave a shout as the Mudrock comes directly up at the Avalon. ?Evasive maneuvers!? From Avalon?s shadow, the Kazekami drops itself from the hangar bay. ?Ha!? shouts Jack as the Kazekami drew its beam saber. But Raven kept the Mudrock on course as the beam saber amputates one of Mudrock?s legs. The Mudrock released its grenades on the lower set of engines, causing the entire line to go out. The Strike Gundam flared its Aile pack engines to pursue the Mudrock as it escapes, but Altecha?s stops him. ?No use going after him, especially with the little power you have left,? said Altecha in the red lights and blaring klaxons of the bridge, ?help Chuck bring Jack back in. We?ll establish a perimeter after we land the Avalon. |
| Result: El Dorado stands |
| Mudrock verus Avalon, Archangel-class |
| Result: Mudrock Gundam wins (mission accomplished) |
| Archangels vs Midgrad |
| Midgrad, Martian Primary Defense Station. First line of defense for the United Colonies of Mars. ?Minovsky Particles detected at Battle Density! Calculating range!? Recent turmoil and instability in the Earth Sphere and beyond had prepared the people of Mars, if not the government, to be wary of anything. The command center of the space station: ?Elevate beam turrets 15 degrees sunward! Mega Particle Cannons on even bombardment standby!? The commander of the station stood behind the technicians on the upper level of the command center. Before him, meters away, stood a giant tactical screen. ?Delta Vanguard, pull back into our shadow,? orders the commander,? have the CGUEs move forward, I want the GINNs guarding our turrets.? A long look at the comm officer,? have they responded yet?? ?Negative! Approximate Target is on steady approach, ETA 17 minutes.? ?Fine, at 15 minutes, open fire with the beam emplacements. Ought to grab their attention.? Onboard the Nazca-class ship?s Hangar Bays, Yuber is alerted by the bridge. ?We got a weapons lock on us! Shall we evade!?? Yuber denies the request,? Hold our heading steady as she goes.? ?This is risky, sir,? offers a pilot as a Jegan walked up behind the GP00 on the launch ramp. ??? Arcs of beam energy dash at the ship. Intentionally missing the craft in hopes that it?ll veer off. Suddenly, a full half of the turrets that were firing stopped. In the command center, the commander is going ballistics when the station shutters and shifts downward. Donovan pulls back on the flight stick, keeping the Re-Gz in formation with the Zeta Plus C1. Both Gundams in waverider mode barrel-rolled together towards the spacestation. By now the beam turrets had altered their trajectory and focused their firepower on the two transformed mobile suits. ?Donovan,? shouts Midori in the ZPlus C1, shifting the craft from side to side, ?I see the turret tower!? ?Go for it,? confirms Donovan, pulling away in the ReGz Custom, ?I got the other tower!? Back onboard the station, the commander gave a desperate order, ?Fire the mega particle cannons! At this range, the proximity of the blasts should eliminate them!? The beam turrets were all but silenced as the mega particle cannons tracked the winged MS. Attempting to anticipate their flight paths, they fired in volley. Seeing the barrage, Midori transforms and verniers downward at the last instance. Landing hard at the base of a battery emplacement, she jams the barrel of the beam smart gun into the very structure. The immediate explosion causes Midori to stop momentarily in her success. Behind her, an attacking GINN vaporizes under the might of the ReGz Custom?s large mega beam cannon. Before either can say anything, the rest of the GINNs popped up weapons ready. The gunnery officers on the station has also centered their crosshairs on the duo. A flash of light flies by the station. The Wing Gundam, also in Bird-mode, did an overpass through the now immense debris field, while ejecting a buster rifle cartridge. A shower of mobile weapons fire surprises the trio. The CGUEs from the front are now charging back in mass. Micheal Barton flips out of Bird-mode, centering the buster rifle on the approaching forces. But Yuber beats it to him. The GP00 Fenris swept the majority away with the first volley of it?s mega beam cannon. The Catharsis, with its escort of Jegans, began firing with its main cannons at the remainder. The remaining few CGUEs assaulted the ship in a suicide strike. All but one were picked off by the Jegans, resulting in a massive explosion on the starboard side of the ship. Damages aside, the space station is now theirs. |
| Result: Midgrad taken by Archangels |
| Valkyries vs Von Braun City |
| The sky darkens slightly, as the Night watch of Von Braun city makes their final rounds. The city falls silent once again, as the watch reports in with their finds? |
| ?Looks like everything?s clear, sir?? |
| That would be the last call in that pilot would make? |
| A gun turret spots something faint on infrared radar. ?Sir, we have a pickup in the infrarad, what should we do?? ?Stand by, that?s what. Who could be coming without previous warning? Get me a visual.? |
| The Captain of the guard?s screen is replaced by a sea of stars, and a faint light? Before the the captain can react, the light becomes a flare, and then nothing. |
| ?One down, Altecha, sir. Continue?? |
| A slight nod from the captain of the Avalon? |
| Meanwhile, back at Von Braun? |
| ?What?s going on out there!? Launch the starks!? |
| ?We can?t, sir! They?ve blockaded the main hangar! All we can launch are jegans!? |
| ?Then launch them! Don?t waste any time, I want them dead!? |
| Outside, the Astray and F91 pick off jegan targets as they launch from the secondary bays. Meanwhile, the Kazekami rains fire upon the main bay from it?s beam guns located on the shoulders and forearms. Pilots launching aren?t given half a chance to maneuver, as the Kazekami sestroys them as they exit the main bay. In a panic, one launches off a pair of rockets that break through the barrage, but are easily taken down by the Kazekami?s own rockets? |
| A flash of light is seen from the distance, as a streak of fire lances through 2 battlements. 2 more flashes, and 2 jegans and 1 missile turret fall. A chain reaction is set off, and all but 1 missile and 1 beam turret are destroyed. Clearly visible is a white flare, a clear sign of surrender from the people of Von Braun. |
| Outcome: Von Braun Taken |
| Zeta Gundam attacks Belfast Azzam smiles as the Zeta Gundam's hyper mega launcher locks on. A thick beam fires through and sweeps the defenses. As the GMs respond, firing their beam rifles, the Zeta Gundam picks them off one by one with its beam rifle. Its leg gets shot apart, but Azzam swings Zeta's beam saber through the last GM. Result: Belfast is taken |
| Sazabi attacks Belfast Yu arms the Sazabi's funnels, dispatching them as Belfast's gundams appears over a rockface. "You're mine!" Yu yells as the gundams are wiped out quickly. Missile emplacements deploy their payloads, taking out the Sazabi's shield in the crossfire. GM Ground Types dispatch in groups of 3, armed with beam weapons. "Don't hide from me!" Yu commands, cutting two GMs down with his beam tomahawk and then splattering five GMs all over the base with Sazabi's mega particle gun. The funnels move quickly, but the GMs still get several shots in; after losing a leg and its beam shotrifle, Yu decides to retreat. Result: Belfast remains |
