Chapter 1 - It Begins

Sheepdog shoots 4 rounds from his M21 all miss. His M21 loses 1 reliability.

Then Cunningham opens fire with the M249 unleashing 28 rounds. All miss, but still force the enemies to make a CUF check because of the 6s on the ammo dice.

Immediately Reed drives down with the Humvee and parks behind the rock. Hunter and him jump out and get into position.

The 4 Soviets fail CUF and are now suppressed. They all drop prone, take 1 stress damage. All lose fast/slow actions during their first turn. The one with the radio uses a free action to speak into it.

Within seconds an artillery shell hits the area far north of Sheepdog. It clearly did not have good coordinates for accuracy.

Artillery shells will continue to hit every enemy turn.

Sheepdog you’re up
Because of combat awareness. I rolled initiative for you twice. You can go now or go last.

Sheepdog fires another 5 rounds. Critical Hit! Enemy 1 with the radio takes 4 damage and has torn intestines. He now has -1 to STAMINA. (Fast Action: Aim | Slow Action: Shoot)

Reed takes partial cover behind the rock, aims at Enemy 1, and then shoots a single round into his leg dealing 1 dmg. (Fast Action: Aim | Slow Action: Shoot)

Enemy 1 becomes incapacitated by his wounds and collapses unconscious. There are 3 remaining enemies lying prone on the bridge.

Hunter you're up
Some suggestions: Attempt to make the difficult shot or move closer.

Hunter swiftly advances toward a cluster of dense brush seizing the chance while the enemies are momentarily caught off guard. (Fast Action: Move | Fast Action: Move)

Cunningham continues firing with the M249, but still doesn’t hit. 8 rounds spent. (Fast Action: Aim | Slow Action: Shoot)The enemy combatants recover from suppression and get up from prone. Two run for cover to the vehicles ahead. The third rushes to the radio and picks it up and gives coordinates to aim. The artillery strike misses, but it's much closer this time.

Sheepdog you're up.

Sheepdog fires 6 rounds that tear through the Soviet's intestines. Another Critical Hit! Enemy 4 who currently has the radio takes 5 damage and collapses unconscious from his wounds. (Fast Action: Aim | Slow Action: Shoot)

There are only 2 enemies remaining.

Reed you're up!

Reed sprints towards the Humvee, leaping into the driver's seat. With the engine roaring to life, he pushes the accelerator to the floor, and the vehicle surges forward, hurtling away to the north at breakneck speed, escaping the incoming artillery fire.

Cunningham you're up!

Cunningham fires 21 rounds from the M249 dealing 4 damage. Critical hit! The rounds rip through the soviet's torso causing internal bleeding. The enemy falls down and drops his weapon. He can no longer walk just crawl.

The unharmed Soviet, his eyes wide with panic and his morale shattered by the critical injuries of his comrades, will make an attempt to flee on his next turn.

Hunter you’re up!
You can shoot the enemy that looks like he will flee or just let him go.
