Around the north edge of the dig site, Ken, Liisha and Neva fired on the advancing gunmen and the air/raft above them, who returned fire.
Aiming above him, Ken's shogun pellets rattled off the underside of the NE air/raft, it was difficult to see if it had done any good. Blake's shots went wide as he threaded his way through the trenches heading southeast, incoming rounds kicked up small fountains of sandy yellow soil. He fired his weapon dry, chamber locking open.
Both sides were at long range, so the fire was relatively ineffective on both sides. The adventurers all had good cover and cloth armour, their attackers were hidden in the tree line and were also wearing cloth.
(GM Note: Range is Long) While Neva and Ken were lucky, Liisha wasn't so lucky and she was struck by heavy autorifle rounds, she dropped her rifle and slumped down out of sight.
The air raft above Linus (the one Ken was shooting at) moved off to start spraying the main group nearby. There was no relief for him as he heard a voice from nearby call,
"you the fuck under there! Come out or we're throwing grenades in and blow you out!" He recognised the thick accent of someone from the Domain of Alntzar, a nearby Zhodani client state.
Over on the western side, Lorrain and Drew continued to take cover, believing it was a lot safer than taking on the dozen nearby gunmen and the hovering air/raft. Thomas fired at the pilot of the nearest air/raft but couldn't see the effect of his shot.
(GM Note: Range is Medium.) Hit or no, the craft didn't display any effects and the door gunner concentrated his fire on him. Rounds streaked down and around him and he felt a sledgehammer smash into his chest. Falling backwards, he gasped fruitlessly for breath, then slipped into darkness as his eyes closed.
