As the Roughnecks pushed farther into bug territory, the
harder it became to take the objectives.
SATURDAY
After the opening battle, the Roughnecks were able to
get to their base and start running missions. The only
problem - the BUGS! Due to a tunnel system created by
the bugs, they were able to be every where at the same
time. The Roughnecks would push on one front, and then
all of a sudden, they would be attacked from behind.
Throughout the day, the bugs would attack the base to
keep the troopers occupied at the base and keep their
missions from being accomplished. Most of these attacks
were lead by the scenario team, Black Karma. While
the attacks continued, the bugs were able to complete
their missions. One smart bug kept eliminating troopers
without being seen. The bug hid in the outhouse by the
main structure on the field and waited for unsuspecting
troopers to walk into his line of sight. This went on for
awhile until one smart trooper finally figured out where he
was. It was not a pretty sight when the bug got squashed.
As the sun sat on Bear Claw; excuse me, Klendathu, the
bugs were ahead by 1,000 points. The only way that the
troopers could come back was to press harder on Sunday.
SUNDAY – A NEW DAY
As the sun rose on Sunday morning, players slowly
started moving around to get ready for the day. After
thawing the coffee, eating breakfast, and chronoing, the
players headed to the field. The bugs were determined
to keep their lead and the troopers were ready to reduce
that lead and get ahead. The teams on the Troopers
side made a determination to work together and push
on the Arachnids’ base so they could run their missions.
The troopers discovered the bug tunnels and started
to sneak around the field using them. With this fierce
determination, the Roughnecks started interrupting the
Bugs’ missions and started completing theirs. A group
