Well, we played through the first of the Sword & Dragon Touchpoint missions yesterday: Sorenson’s Sabres (played by Martin and Rich) came up against a lance of Fuchida’s Fusiliers (played by Sarah, Randy, Stephen and Merric). Despite the Sabres terrifically out-tonning and out-gunning the Fusiliers, the mercenaries gave a good account of themselves.
Shakir Jerrar’s Hunchback was crippled early in the confrontation: a head hit knocking Shakir unconscious, and then its leg being blown off before he woke up. The mercenaries also managed to knock Emory Wilk out, but were unable to inflict serious damage on the Mech by the time he woke up again.
