ABS FIESTA REDUX

[Qwepir]

"Got any suggestions?" Jaakko asks.

: Damn it, Crash! I've got enough to worry about already, I'm not going to do your job for you. Whatever you do, just do it quickly!

[Ad Bot]

[Badger]

"Time is ticking, we should act now before the fighters get here."

Walter changes his course towards towards the Vigilant

"If you could deal with the drones or grab their attention it'd be appreciated."

[Mr. Hurricane]

"Alright, we're gonna get it done quick,"

Jaakko switches circuits. His eyes dart between his radar screen and the boxed in specks that are bouncing around on the walls of the roosterpit.

"Here's what I'm thinking. We're going for the grand prize. Skyguy, get ready to cover Walt and Snowman while they go for the destroyers, then come help me with the incoming aircraft. Gaffe, stick with Snowman and be careful. Gus, bring up your drones with ordnance to help cover against the interceptors or drones that get through. Yui- grab RGMs and offer fire support if your situation allows it," he chatters, "And be mindful of your own situations everyone. stuff's getting ugly so let's make it quick and dirty and go home,"

[CypherX]

Drones F through I head to screen with Crash.

[Mr. Hurricane]

"Ah forget," Jaakko curses to himself. He gets on the radio.

"Skytracer, hurry and resupply. That ordnance will be valueable. Be quick about it. I don't imagine we have much time before the interceptors are here,"

[Deoxys And One Noob]

Gaffe hears his orders on the radio from his squad leader and obeys, forming up on the Shiva and watching for any missile locks.

He gets an idea and patches through to Snowman.

"Snowman, I have an idea. Whichever destroyer we're going for first, use your R20 to distract PD while I take out the SAM's."

[Gojira]

"...roger that."
Yui turns her aircraft towards AWACS instead.

[Qwepir]

Drones F through I head to screen with Crash.

The drones peel off from the main group and start rocketing towards the scattered allied formation.

"...roger that."
Yui turns her aircraft towards AWACS instead.

As Yui starts moving to resupply with the AWACS, she finds herself on the receiving end of a radar lock.

[Badger]

Walter continues to close his distance, keeping a low height as he continues to cool the plasma.

"You should attack the Intrepidus,let Snowman work his magic and nail the SAM tubes with the Gauss rifle instead. We don't have much more room for them to be chasing us around."

Walter spots the missile tracking Yui soon after and simply shakes his head, not being able to do anything about it.

[Operator¹]

"stuff Yui, I'm too far away to help, better just eject."

[NoZoner]

"Hawkeye, start defending, don't let that missile reach you," Lorens gulps as he watches the warning receiver, fearing for Yui's life. Unable to help, he focuses on the objective and reviews his options.

"Walt's right," he responds to Hilbert, "I have the firepower to deal with one destroyer myself, it would be faster if we split up and attack separate threats."

He pitches down, opens his airbrakes and tries ducking into the streets to conceal the Shiva from radar.

"Snowman, engaging Vigilant, descending to 5 AGL to terrain mask."

[Gojira]

Yui calmly starts orienting her aircraft away from any allied forces, then punches the burners so that she can get as far away as possible from allied forces.
"Crash, I'm going to get my aircraft as far away from you guys as possible. Make sure you all don't die, and kill those damn destroyers. Lorens, I'm going to be alright. I've always made it back before, and I will make it back again."
Thanks for the concern Ellie. Really appreciate the concern.
She removes her hands from the stick, and places them on the ejection lever, hesitating for a moment. Instead of ejecting, she places her aircraft on a course for the nearest Imperial forces, setting the angle of decline for the autopilot. She puts both hands on the ejection lever, and the canopy hisses as explosices break it away from the aircraft. The seat and pilot follow shortly after.

The Shiva squeezes in between the buildings.

As you descend in your chute, you get a front row seat to seeing the corsair drift slightly off course and get annihilated by the cruiser's missile well before it reaches anyone. You land on the roof of a 20-story office building a short while later.

Crash, Walt, Gaffe, and Snowman have now entered missile range of the remaining destroyers, and the entire drone escort is heading out to meet them. Gus's drone support will be in range to assist in two turns.

[Gojira]

Yui briefly wonders why she always lands on buildings, then looks for a door down to the inside of the building, picking up her pilot bag.

[Deoxys And One Noob]

Graf hears his squadmates and obeys.

"Right. I'll get to work and help save some Kintharians. Whoever is left, anyways."

He aims and fires 10 rockets, 5 from each pod of the R20 at the VLS sites of the Intrepidus.
