War was one of those whimsical things, where on the turn of a moment, the hunters could find themselves quickly becomng the prey. As Harasser 412, flew by the convoy Scorpion, it finds itself broadsided by the scrappy tanks SRM array. Explosions rock the little hover tank violently. The foward air skirts werent just lost but were blown off. The foward Hover fan is dislodged, as the alignment is lost theres a sickening grinding sound of it warping itself out of shape against it's supportive casing. If the news wasnt bad enough power went down completely to all the fans as the power to propel the tank along was lost. If that wasnt enough the rear fin was blown off preventing speedy movement.
It was insult to injury that Amos' perfectly lined up shot was pre-empted moment before he could trigger his round, Harrasser 412 virtually found itself engulfed in a firey volley fo SRM fire grounding it violently on the roadside, threw his aim off. The easy shot goes wide, as his SRM Volley completely misses the Scorpion, trees and all.
The rest of the Eridani's have similiar luck, drawing no hits for the moment against the fleeing convoy, and too far to assist Harraser 412.
Ill fortune follows as Crispin shaken from the turn of events, flips a switch he really shouldnt have.
"
NO~! Dont do that!", Pegan manages to cry out just before the amplification module creates a feedback loop shorting out 411's probe functions out along with Caitlin's fire control. Pegan grabs a fire extinguisher and theres a gush of foam that jets off all over the EW area, to put out the electrical fire that was starting.
Pegasus 411, takes (1) Sensor hit and is at -1 to hit for turn three
12:28, Today: Pegasus rolled 1 using 1d3. Sensor hits.
No EW of any sort this round. Probe functions out for the rest of the scenario.
It wasnt all bad news though, just mostly.
 | Bailey was circling around, coming back around with a northern approach this time. The opposition didnt look all that impressive. Even less so after her bomb run had taken out one of the Scorpions. "Tony. Did they surrender? I'm ready to make another (her last) bomb run if you need me to make a point.", Bailey chirps in clueless about the harsh turn of events on the ground.
(Now would also be a good time for Tony to tell Bailey to relay back to base that they need a triple AAA tow, because 412 was dead in the water)

We're officially in the third turn's intiative phase.
Crispin just blew out the electrical of 412. (No EW this turn and probe out for rest of scenario)
Need a Intiative roll from Tony
05:53, Today: Capt. Tony Garabaldo rolled 14 using 2d10. init.
+1 for tony being a good leader = 15.
12:41, Today: Pegasus rolled 18 using 2d10. Bad guy intiative.
Eridani's lose intiative, and should move something.
Need a go/no go decision from Caitlin what to do with Bailey. She could make a bomb run on the scorpion but 412, is in the blast area and would take 10 damage too.
