THE ATTACK ON SOLARIAL'S PLACE
Brought to you by: ME!
Well, we attacked the house from all sides, with our initial targets being
the 2 Aerodynes and the 3 Panzers that were defending the house. We fired AVMs
at these five targets, the panzers were decommissioned pretty darn quick. We
were able to disable only one of the aerodynes, though damaging the other one
severely. Even with one of the Aerodynes still in action, we switched our
attention to the other defenses.
We broke through the outer perimeter in the confusion of this sudden attack.
But, then, just as we were on the verge of breaking into the house, Solarial
and his Rangers rallied the remaining defenders. We were pushed back with
heavy casualties. In the initial attack we had had none killed, but several
had been lightly wounded. We now had lost half of the people that were in
Shadow's gang. We had decided that we would not return to Seattle alive
without capturing Solarial, before we attacked. It was fast looking like
that was going to be the case.
Just as we were getting ready to make a last stand...out of the sky came a
Greater Western Dragon. The Dragon attacked and destroyed the last Aerodyne.
Then he swept down on Solarial's forces causing a few of them to break towards
the house. The Dragon landed and we could see it was Ryuga, I have never in
my life been so happy to see a dracoform. Those that broke were going in to
get weapons that could hurt a dragon, I do believe. A large majority began to
make a fighting retreat.
We followed them into the house fighting all the way. We followed them into
the basement level, where we surrounded them. At which time Solarial called
for a temporary cease of all hostilities. He offered himself up, in exchange
for the freedom of his personnel. We granted his request, although we did
sedate him in order to prevent any escape attempt. With the help of a member
of the UCAS military by the name of Shadowflame, we set up explosives in
Solarial's house to carry out the wishes of our dearly departed friend,
Action Jackson.
After blowing up Solarial's place we beat feet, and made a dash for the TT/
UTE border. Ryuga ran interference against air attack, the bodies of Shadow's
gang members that had died had gone up with the house. I would like to thank
wizard for the FAEs, they worked wonderfully.
I wonder what the bill for Solarial is going to be like. Oh, well, no use
dwelling on that. On Saturday we return to Seattle. We've been touring
New Orleans, and getting some much needed R&R. That is why I haven't posted
this until now.]<<<<<
