Objective ICE (5150:SA Battle Report)

We played (of course with 5150: Star Army) the scenario Objective Ice of the Bright Horizon Campaign.
In this scenario a convoy of Unicorn artillery is moving along a secondary road. The Helljumpers have asked the local resistance to coordinate an ambush. The objectives are simple.
Unicorn Unlimited troops must leave the map by the south road. The Helljumpers must destroy the artillery.

THE BATTLE

With intel from the resistance, the ambushers (Helljumpers) were ready.

The ambushers' firepower was so heavy that the Unicorn quickly lost their scout vehicles and were pinned.

The Unicorn were able to fire back with small effects.

But the end is near because artillery vehicles were hit and an unexpected reinforcement arrived: an artillery strike from resistance command post.

ARTILLERY STRIKE! 

The Unicorn were routed.

AFTER THE BATTLE
The Unicorn Troops managed to save only one artillery vehicle and were unable to leave by the south road. They left four dead, four deserters and twelve wounded (they were captured) for only two dead and four wounded for the Helljumpers.

NOTES
We were able to test a few optional rules in this game. I'll post them soon. We played with more troops than in the scenario. One more rocket launcher and a sniper team for the Helljumpers and three Exo armor for the Unicorn. I think that, for the balance of the game, we can keep the opposing forces, but with one less rocket launcher for the Helljumpers.
