Flying Mine Caper

 The Friday Old Guys were down to two for the eighth. Greg and I braved the next scenario, the Skymine in the core book. A run and grab scenario that features holes in the floor to fall through is probably a good one to miss. We both pulled for a Side Hustle, mine netting a few credits more in the after game. Greg's unfortunately fizzled out. 

What follows is not a blow by blow , but it has photos at least!

 Last but not least, some troopers.

The rest of Greg's fellows.

 

It was a cat and mouse sort of game.  Both of us took a few shots while picking up loot counters, hitting opponents at a steady pace.  No armed conflict occurred near the 'holes' and the scenario rule for shaking ground was avoided. Gregg lost a drone and a dog;, a regular crewman went down on my side.

The rules are coming back, a few omissions , by each of us, made the game an increase in accuracy over prior outings. The supply of terrain increased with the 5 counters for the holes.  Most important, we both had a good time.   

Next scenario, a missing fence, from the core book.  I may try one of the excellent solo scenarios after that.

Thanks to all of you who responded to the Mission Creep post.  A visit to an old set of rules and some basing will occur for the winter season, more on that in another post.
