Boom!

... goes my AI,. under a hail of Sniper fire.

It proved ineffective at removing the wall sheltering the Commander, and to be honest I think the Commander would have got a shot off and exploded my AI even quicker.

I really should have made more of my AI. Its a 4 point unit, and I spnt most of my time moving it back and forth, healing up units that just got blasted to bits again. Maybe the scoreline woukdnt have been too bad had I moved into the thick of the fray earlier, and tried to take out a few of the enemy instead.

Overall a fun game though.

Final score 5 - 15.

Curses again!

His badly wounded Commander is being guided by the hand of Julian Gollop himself.... Two of my AI shots managed to somehow nick the edge of the flimsiest looking pieces of wall I've ever seen, narrowly missing the blessed Commander..... Its now run behind a wall, and is getting healed up.

I'm moving the Ai forward a bit, and am mixing in Terrain fire orders into the mass of redlines to try to knock out the covering wall. I want that Commander....

The only real use of my Scanner is to act as a distraction and to try to rebound any incoming grenades. It'll be spinning around the open bits of the map trying to attract a little incoming fire.

May the fourth be with you!

Today is the day I get to make my annual Star Wars joke.

Good isn't it?

If Lucasfilm had any sense they would have scheduled Episode III for release today. "May The Fourth Be With You" would have made a great advertising byline....
