You all begin skirting around the area of conflict.
: [Scratch that, sir. Auxiliary reinforcements are leaving the area.]
: [Very well, if they want to be the bait, I won't complain.]

Airships will be in radar range next turn.




This happens.
Draugur 2 doesn't evade just yet.

Draugur surges forward with aid from their turbochargers and are now in missile range.

Everybody except Scorch picks up a missile warning.



Markus laughs maniacally

Markus immediately fires his EML at Draugr 4, quickly thumbs the weapons selector, and then fires two AAMs at the same target.

: I heard from the radio chatter that there might be a Fenrir operating in the area, keep an eye out for it.



"[Gerowitz, I'm going to do a pass and deploy chaff.]"

Ellie flies near the front of the Nosferatu and deploys two packets of chaff before taking evasive maneuvers.

Jaakko gets cold feet seeing as how the rest of the strike squadrons are maintaining their distance. He calls the commander in the air.

"What's the plan?"

Gerowitz fires her full complement of gauss rifles and PPCs at Dragur-3, before using Skytracer's popped chaff and going into evasive maneuvers.

"Thanks for the assistance."

Ash gets the missile warning and throws out a chaff cloud before jinking hard to evade.

Ash's success is short lived, however, as an incoming volley of cannonfire from Draugur Lead cripples his Typhoon.


"stuff, covering Blackeye."

Ellie fires a half-aimed shot from her LCB and two seekers at Draugr-lead.



: Alright, I'll stick with Snowman. Somebody has to keep Walt's rear covered though. Sound good?

Walt shifts uneasily in the roosterpit at the mention of the Fenrir.
: Alright, I'll stick with Snowman. Somebody has to keep Walt's rear covered though. Sound good?
"That'd be appreciated."

Ash flinches and braces himself as the cannon volley tears his fuselage to shreds. "F-forget! This thing's FUBAR! I'm punching out!," He throws the canopy release lever and pulls the ejection handle.

Markus half aims and fires the EML at Draugur lead.

"I'll cover Walt,"

Jaakko brings his aircraft above and behind the Skepna.

"Virvel, get on my wing here so we can weave if the Fenrir attacks us. I wish the Imperial commander would have told us there was a Fenrir here,"

Jaakko checks his infrared search and track. Knowing the Fenrir, if its been cloaked long that it could be running hot soon.

Ajka fires her gunpod PPCs at Dragur lead.

: What, already? What the hell happened?

Jaakko brings his aircraft above and behind the Skepna.

"Raiden, what's the situation?"
