Over the weekend I completed some painting some figures and so played a couple of games to use them immediately. I'm currently based in the Seranthis system on the frontier mining planet of Ivoris, so all the action takes place there.
In game #1 my team has been hired by the owner of a local ore processing facility to intercept some Cyborgs infiltrators trying to steal a consignment of rare ore (Trillium-C). They appear very human but are pretty tough under that flesh. I'm a little short-handed as the Captain is still in the med-bay and my new recruit got lost on a scouting mission.

The aggressive Cyborgs push down one flank in a big group but I manage to set up a decent fire position and take them down without any losses.

In game #2 the Ore Processor fixes me up with a job to help a local mining company being intimidated by a large corporate concern. They have hired some off-world Mercs to attack the mine shaft and I need to stop them. The game took place in a dust storm so visibility varied randomly each turn.

This proved a tough fight as the Mercs are better equipped and trained than my guys and use decent flanking tactics. After 6 turns I've lost 2 and the Mercs 4 when we do a deal - as pros they will "call it a day" so I win the game but dont hold the field so miss out on some loot. I take the deal and spend some cash on med-tech and bot repairs to get my team healed-up.

Its well that I did, as I've attracted the attention of the law and the local SWAT team plan to bounce me on the way back to star port. These guys are well equipped so it will be a tough encounter.
