Another instalment in the war against the evil AI toot - a ride share platform that has become sentient and has taken over the world.
In this episode, toot is looking for extra space for its HumanZ and also to deny a strategically important city to the feral human resistance who are also looking to expand.
The humans have got there first and are hiding in the abandoned city and toot has sent in a search and destroy mission to clear them out. And this time toot has added a terrifying new weapon - Giant Evil Robot Pack (tm). Thanks Simon.
I am using the SciFi FUBAR rules with random activation by drawing playing cards for each unit or vehicle. The humans start the game hiding and have random reinforcements but can appear anywhere on the table for infantry and on any entrance for vehicles.
Here is some commentary and photos of the game.
First up the toot drones fill the sky looking for targets |
In the centre the Giant Evil Robot Pack (tm) move down the street supported by RoBroZ |
Each of the other streets have two TankZ and RoBroZ |
Overview of the city |
Humans have planted AA guns on the top of buildings and while they shoot down a few DroneZ they are quickly dealt with. |
Giant Evil Robot Pack (tm) smash through some rough terrain growing in the street |
Same for the right assault team |
And the left |
Feral Humans ambush the TankZ and RoBroZs!! However in the next turn return fire from the RoBroZ destroy the ferals before they can escape back into the city. |
Feral armed utes come out to attack the Giant Evil Robot Pack (tm). They cause some damage to its mobility but that is all. |
but are quickly dealt with |
Battle Buses and more armed utes charge in |
The centre of the city is dominated by toot forces |
Another over view. The bright orange markers are destroyed ferals |
Armed trucks appear from a motor way tunnel under the city to challenge the invaders |
While the battle buses are shot up by RoBroZ |
Another feral ambush destroys a TankZ and an Evil Giant Robot !! Lucky shot to the rear. The remaining ferals scuttle away leaving half their number dead. |
With little remaining forces available the feral commander calls for a retreat. Toot has won this battle and soon the remains of the city will be humming with HumanZ. |
Anyway a fun game on my new abandoned city board.
The random activation using playing cards worked well. I purchased some 1/12 scale cards -about 10mm by 15mm and they are not obtrusive when placed on the table and help keep track of who has moved and who is next.
Extra good game as I finally got to use the Giant Evil Robot Pack (tm) that my brother had made for me. Thanks Simon.
