TURN 1

EotBS won the initiative.

E1
Sneaking around the Eastern island, a squadron of Corvettes move forward.

P1
Squadron of two Hussar Gunships push forward, still out of range.

E2
Destroyers inch forward in the center.

P2
Second group of Gunships ignite the Tesla Generators and press forward. They fire into the oncoming destroyers, sinking the middle one and causing 1HP damage to the next.

E3
Gunships inch forward and retaliate against the Prussian Gunships. Incendiary Rockets cause 2 hits and a Raging Fire Token.

P3
Destroyers head into the fray and fire guns into the oncoming Gunships. They inflict a Critical Hit to the middle one causing 2HP damage and knocking the Generators out.

E4
Cruisers inch forward.

P4
Battleship ignites the Tesla Generator but does not gain enough power to move very much. CAP follows.

E5
Recon plane scouts the western edge of the battle.

P5
The Black Wolf charges up the Echo Generator to create a ghost of its self. Both echoes move forward.

E6
Dreadnaught and Escorts move forward and unload on the Prussian Destroyers with one sinking.

P6
High in the clouds the Airship lumbar over the south-east island. Tesla coils ignite but fail to do any damage to the Blazing Sun Fleet. The airships CAP follows close beside.

E7
Torpedo Bombers speed forward.

P7
Scout ships follow the airships lead.

E8
Assault carrier and escorts creep around the island.

E9
Far west Corvettes move forward.

E10 and E11
Fighter planes soar over the north-east island.

End Phase
The EotBS Gunships repair the Generators but the Prussians fail to put out the Raging Fires. In fact, the inferno is too much for the crew to handle and it increases in size (rolled a 6 for repair and received another RF token)

Turn 2 coming soon...

Broken Ties - Dystopian Wars Battle Report....lost!

Somewhere, somehow, the technology gods decided they did not want me to post the remaining turns and finally of the Broken Ties Battle Report. Magically all the pictures from the battle report had disappeared from my computer and/or the SD card.

I'm almost willing to bet that it was the maniacal machinations of a certain 6 year old that's been usurping my computer for "school work"...uh-huh!

I also was suffering from strep throat last week so no painting was accomplished. Last night, I did manage to prime the newest addition to my fleet... The Black Wolf.

Captain Vladimir Nikonov is what many call a criminal, but he thinks of himself more akin to a pirate of old. He has no allegiance to any nation, and will, for the right payment, bring the full, deadly force of The Black Wolf to a military engagement. A veteran of the Russian Coalition naval forces, Nikonov rose quickly through the ranks, and soon became the chosen Captain to command the latest technological achievement of the Russian Coalition, the Submersible приносящий смерть (Death Bringer).

But on its maiden voyage Nikonov, and his loyal supporters, stole the submersible and vanished. A year later reports of a devastating ‘underwater machine of destruction’ first appeared in a Britannian newspaper following the destruction of a flotilla of KoB warships in the waters around Greenland. Within 6 months the names Nikonov and The Black Wolf would be heard around the world… and death would soon follow.

Hopefully I'll get it painted soon enough.

p.s. I also have base coated all of my airships and inked them.
