Operation Alchemy: Space Marine

Space marines advance on their objectives. 

My Team triggers automated defenses killing one soldier before my unit shipper can takes it out.

 

Will's squad advances on the cave and faces opposition from Alien robots and Corporate mercenaries. 

One of Will's Marines discovers the cave is occupied and just has time to make his report before being shot dead. 

Alien robots move into or toward the jungle... I seem to be attracting a lot of attention. Good thing I have Mechs backing me up, the take down the robots.

This time Will has a grenade enter first and but still take fire from the lone survivor, killing one of his men. 

The corporate mercenaries take out Will’s rear guard. 

My first team moves up and uncovers “predator” aliens to our left flank.  My Second team opens fire on them killing three and then causing two other to run. Those two come back but he Mechs take them out! 

Will’s surviving men kill the scavenger queen and then get ambushed by more scavengers…

Who take out another of his troopers. 

My troops and the Mechs are using fire and movement to advance through the jungle while the corporate mercenaries have done a conga line across table until running into two alien robots, who burn down the first two soldiers.  Mercenary Artillery then takes out one of the robots. The conga line then becomes a firing line taking down the last robot. 

An alien Bio-Mech charges the corporate mercenaries who now seem to be the focus of the alien attention. 

The firefight in the bunker/cave continues. 

My squad advances out the Jungle with the Mechs providing cover from behind.

Will finally wins the fire fight and finds some interesting technology only to have three alien predators pop up, a grenade takes out one… but not the other. 

Marines move up to investigate the Dormitory while the Mechs advance on Dome A  

Will and his men engage the Predator in hand to hand combat and have finally cleared the room and uncover Alien data and a large stash of digital pornography.

The Dormitory contains a booby trap that kills one of my men…. 

Grey Aliens are discovered in Dome A.  They  try to capture the Mech they fail to mind control him the first time but manage it the second time.

My 2^nd fire team finds a planet buster bomb which we try to disarm… it seems to still be ticking…

Meanwhile my 1^st fire team blunders into a fire fight between the research team and aliens and discovers the Data Core location and whic we radio to Will's team. Turns out the Pornography was a code screen for the data. 

Alien aircraft strafe the corporate Mercenaries as run back try and steal the Data Corp from Will. The Grey aliens emerge with a Marine mech under their control. 

The extraction shuttle arrives as the mercenaries run toward it. My troops manage to disarm the planet buster and kill one of the Greys. The HQ squad manages take out the other Grey and we head for the high orbitals.
