Annihilation Looms
Round 1 - Combat
As expected, most of round one saw the infantry from both sides rushing into covered firing positions or moving onto objectives. An early shot from the Scout Sniper Team took out two Fleet Troopers, while the Scout Squad extracted an Intel token from the relay they had captured.
This early loss to the rebels may have given them pause, as instead of crossing the open ground, they surprised the imperials by diverting inwards towards the table centre…
… or had their placement been a rouse all along? In an unexpected move from the Rebels, Director Krennic, who had moved up to claim a comms relay, was now targeted by long range shots from the repositioned Wookiees and Rebel troopers. In the attack Krennic suffered three wounds, leaving him highly vulnerable!
On the south flank there was an exchange of fire between the Pathfinders and the Shoretroopers who had moved into the southmost work shack.
The Mortar trooper was killed, taking an activation from the imperials. In retaliation the Shoretrooper unit gunned down four of the five rebels who were moving to support the Pathfinders from the centre of the battlefield.
Steeeve!Pao’s Pathfinder squad recovered a grapple hook from one of the rebel supply crates. Meanwhile the northernmost Shoretrooper unit found a holo projector inside an abandoned workshop.
