out - which it did) and hosed two blower tanks in the rear with everything it had, including its top mounted secondary weapon. Minus one Blower. The Xaoc drove to a side position on another blower and  - again - rapid fired its main gun. Minus a second blower. Infantry took out a combat car with continues small arms and support weapon fire and another was destroyed by the Xaoc's secondary weapon: even the Slammers jeep lost its tribarrel after coming under fire from both secondary weapons and the NU AFVs ADS system - effective even against jeeps with a decent dice throw. Finally the remaining Molot took out the last Command blower. Turn Six Turn six didn't really happen. A morale check was due for the Slammers at the end of Turn Five but - for formality - initiative was bowled for Turn Six and the Slammers player did not win it. This meant that their remaining force, entirely composed of combat cars with a Command car and a damaged jeep, could do nothing against the NU forces: the Molot especially was invulnerable from anything except a very lucky rear attack from tribarrels and - with the initiative gained - it was about to reverse back under the mono-rail station to protect its flank from any kind of fast attack. The remaining Xaoc was similarly impregnable from the front and the Slammers would have to get a side shot to stand even a chance. Before the morale check was bowled the Slammers conceded defeat. A poor day for Alois… Thanks Mike Popay: a worthy opponent with the New Ukrainians John Treadaway
