Closing down....

The regen has blown, after taking an attack from 3 sides.

The guardian lives, just.

My other sentry got shot, and then taken out by another Warp blast. Fatboy ran his grunt directly into the path of my warp ball. It killed the grunt but also damaged me.

The warp at the top winged his medic and grunt, but they are not dead yet. I'm going to leg the Warper over to that side of the map. I may as well move while I am auto-regening the 2 energy I'll need for an attack. I'm trying to get my Psychers over in that direction too so that they are within striking distance of his HQ, where I think he will head to rearm.

Current score 20 - 14

Ooops

Thats an understatement.... A cock-up of the most gigantic proportions just occured.

Firstly, one of my Psychers got taken out. I had planned on taking a shot and then popping back inside the shield. However, Fatboy attacked from the top with the troops he had looped back last turn. taking him out.

Secondly (and this is the biggie) my warper managed to hit my other psycher from point-blank range. I had intended on moving the psycher over to the left flank to psych next turn, and to send a warp up into the top right, where I had expected his troops to be. Soemthing went wrong with the timing, meaning that the psycher and warp ball collided. BOOOOOM!!!

The resulting explosion took out the warper, nearly killed the psycher, heavily damaged the Regen and also damaged the Guardian.

I didnt even kill anything else!!

Current score 12 - 19

I'm moving the guardian between the top Grunt and the regen, and getting it to rearm. I dont want the regen to go up, and hopefully the Guardian will take a fgew shots away from it. My wounded Psycher is doing a runner in case the regen does go up as I dont want it caught up in the explosion.

My lower Psycher is within range of the lower grunt, so a Psych that direction might help. My remaining Warper is sending 2 shots towards the top troops.
