After trotting eagerly out of the land-bridge portal, Slash soon slowed as she felt her weight and claws sinking into soft soil and the organic green stuff the humans called "grass". The lighting had also changed, to a bright and clear blue. She halted and transformed into bot mode, taking a moment to look around, to take in her environment and track her foe, using senses no natural dinosaur and few robots possessed.

The enormous space ship landing over there was fairly obvious.

Her maps told her she was in the Haute Chaîne du Jura, whatever that was, an alpine nature reserve of green fields, trees, and hills, populated by animals, all organic and messy and wild. Just the way a Dinobot liked it. With her beast mode, she was more in her element here than in some spaceship or city. 'This place pretty.' Slash remarked to her fellow Autobots with a happy grin.

Torques jets modes burst from the land bridge and pulled up climbing to a decent flight height as they began to circle around where the others would come out "I have eyes on Perihelion do you want me to wait and do some fly overs or engage?" He asked the others still circling above.

In reply to Torque (msg # 7):

Those connected to the humans' communications array find that they are very uncomfortable about the Decepticon Parihelion especially since they are talking about malfunctions in their anti air cannon that was made for just this reason.

Slash moves forward and detects the positions of four Decepticons all near the airstrip and thus the spaceship known as Parihelion. To know which Decepticon is which, she'll need to get closer. OCC: Slash didn't say how far she was moving, so I'll let you move twice this time if this was an error. Remember, when not directly under fire, you may take two actions.

Gremlin, unnoticed by the Autobots. Y

Roughstrike launches himself into the wilderness in his alt form, chewing up the ground and leaving lines in the grasslands. He detects each of the Decepticons that Slash did, but, instead of masking himself, he inadvertently moved into a direct line of sight. The only thing that saves him from being detected right now, is that he's to far away to be detected.

Torque only circles the Autobot's entry point and exposes himself to their detection. OCC: Any Decepticon that rolled Surveliance detects Torque's location.

Winhammer rolls out as ordered by Optimus Prime and moves closer to the facility.

Everyone else holds where they are.

OCC: Make sure you're tracking your energon and post your current numbers at the end of your post.

For its part the ship known as Perihelion doesn't seem to mind being part of the scenery, hovering only about a hundred feet above the ground right next to the anti air weapons that are doing their level best to ignore such a massive looming craft.  Presumably the ship is watching and perhaps even waiting for something but what that could be is anyone's guess.

After scanning the hilly horizon and the signals that came to her on the electromagnetic winds, Slash reported to the team 'Me Slash smell five, um, no, four Decepticons – one is very smelly – all at the airstrip. And the Perihelion one too, obvs.' She'd picked up some human slang from Earthian communications, obvs.

"I will move to engage Perhelion I can keep him busy enough for the rest of you to engage the other deception's." He said as the twin jets banked and took off towards the giant ship in order to close the distance and begin the assault in earnest.

Moving 8 with the dash from being a jet.

23:16, Today: Torque rolled 5 using 1d10 with rolls of 5.  Dash bonus.

Apparently done waiting, or whatever it was doing the enormous ship known as Perihelion reorients itself with alarming speed and the kind of agility that is only possible in the air when wings aren't required for flight.  The more rounded end points at the closest of the oncoming jets and one of the glowing points nearest it begins to glow more brightly just as the jet enters long range, unleashing a bolt of coherent light that looks purple to humans only because that is where it intersects the visible spectrum, the high energy blast peaks well above that.

Slash begins her actions.


Windhammer and Torque both move closer with only Torque being within range of the Godmaster's gun when it fires. OCC: Torgue make a Defense roll to reduce or even dodge the damage coming in.

The other characters hold where they are.

Slash saw something interesting, and just had to go check it out.

The M1134 armed missile carrier at the airstrip continued to scan the area for autobots eager to take on the ancient foes.

Hiver exited the huge Perihelion on the away side from the Autobots, and separated out into the airspace in various directions.
Rising high into the air currents, they fanned out to provide a network of Surveillance.


- rolled 4 using 1d10 with rolls of 4.  Espionage.
- rolled 5 using 1d10 with rolls of 5.  Surveillance
Wow, thanks Dice Roller:  two pretty sucky rolls for my first foray into the game!  ;-P

Torques jet forms dived as soon as they began taking fire pulling up near the surface to transform into his truck form and continue to move hopefully out of fire of the large ship.

Move to ground and transform

Gremlin does some things.


Slash does her own thing


Windhammer continues to do his thing


Torque as moved this turn into range to attack Perihelion directly if he so chooses.

Drumfire is doing something


Hiver launches himself from the deck of Perihelion


Taking the hit, Torque now on the ground withing 5 areas of the decepticon and sees Hiver divide and land with a crash into the airstrip causing damage to that area

As his target goes down Perihelion goes up, but only a little, as the giant ship also moves to track the position of the now grounded target from directly above, firing what is clearly some kind of turret mounted laser down between the human built structures to threaten the now Jeep formed Autobot.

 She had to hurry or she'd miss the battle!

Hiver spread out, two drones swinging right of the incoming Autobots,  two drones swinging left.
Between them, they set up into a wide-net scanning system to lock onto and track the incoming enemy.
