ABS FIESTA REDUX

[Operator¹]

Ellie deploys all of her fake flares to shake off the missiles, not bothering to take evasive maneuvers.

"Well, that was quick. Let's catch up with the carrier and maybe we can try fighting against a simulated Hyperion."

[Ad Bot]

[Badger]

Walter can be heard scoffing from the back of the room and then quietly chuckling as he watches.

[Mr. Hurricane]

"Is it a miracle he's not really dead?"

[Gojira]

"...sure. Let me pick a new aircraft, so that we're actually even this time around."

[Operator¹]

"Maybe you could use that Morgenstern we just got, it's not like they're making any more of them."

[NoZoner]

"It just might be," Ash responds to Jaakko as he slouches back into his seat, "Holy stuff, talk about a goat rope. He could've at least landed a shot or two."

[Qwepir]

: He should've brought something that was actually meant for shooting planes, not airships. You're never going to hit something that small and fast with plasma, not unless it's a fluke.

Markus puts the Corsair back and takes out a Fenrir, likely causing no small amount of anxiety in Crash.

Markus puts the Corsair back and takes out a Fenrir, likely causing no small amount of anxiety in Crash.

"I had decent success with the Corsair and the P3, but I wasn't shooting at Wyverns with it,"

Jaakko's eyes lock on the screen the moment the Fenrir launches.

"And there goes my other favorite. As much as I love the Fenrir though, Scorch is going to get smoked again, though a Fenrir has a decent chance against a Wyvern,"

[NoZoner]

"He should've brought something that was actually meant for shooting planes, not airships. You're never going to hit something that small and fast with plasma, not unless it's a fluke."

"Alright. You've got a point there," Ash concedes. He looks back at the display.

"Now this is a fair fight. If Scorch knows what he's working with, he can win for sure." A smile tugs at Ash's lips. "I'm feelin' a little lucky right now. Fifty bucks says Scorch takes it," he wagers.

[Mr. Hurricane]

"Bullstuff. Fifty bucks Scorch eats it. Ellie doesn't talk ever but she can handle herself in a fight,"

[Gojira]

Markus immediately activates the cloak once Ellie's in range, then begins circling to get behind her.

[Operator¹]

Ellie fires two AAMs and her LCB while Markus is cloaking.

: I don't have any money on me, or I'd put some on the Fenrir going down.
: Hmph. I'd like nothing more than to see the Fenrir win, but I can't say I have faith in its pilot. Crash could do it. Maybe.
: Oh please, that bloated pancake is going to get whipped as soon as the Wyvern gets close, no matter who's flying it. It's got no reach, it's too slow to turn, and it's damn enormous. Don't bother dogfighting in anything that sits on more than four wheels, that's what I say.
: Weird of you to sing the Wyvern's praises, I thought you hated that thing.
: Uh, I'm not though? I could whip anyone in the Fenrir with my Berkut, easy.

Markus immediately activates the cloak once Ellie's in range, then begins circling to get behind her.

You're miles out, way too far to be getting behind your opponent.

Ellie fires two AAMs and her LCB while Markus is cloaking.

LCB accuracy 55
Experience provides bonus of 1
Test taken at 55
Roll: 91 - failure
Result: miss
The LCB goes wide, but Scorch still has the heatseekers to contend with.

[Gojira]

"...forget."

Markus drops two strings of flares and goes evasive, dropping the cloak to save it for later.

[Operator¹]

Ellie starts aiming at the Fenrir as it comes out of cloak.
