The Pursuit SL80.0

Post by IKV Avenger »

We played this scenario back in August of 2016. I hadn't played this scenario for almost 30 years. It was a win for the Hydrans both times. In the 2016 battle the Klinks put up a valiant fight but the dice weren't with them. Of the internals they inflicted on the Hydran the Hydran's 7th shield (center hull) soaked up a LOT of the possible damage). That and missing with TWO OVERLOADED DISRUPTORS from the F5 at R1 (rolled box cars)!!!

On the other hand, the Hydran's gunner kept hitting the power and weapons on the D7 to the point it was crippled (add in the fact that all 4 HB's hit 2 OL and 2 standard).

This is actually a pretty stiff fight for the Klinks despite the 2-to-1 ratio of ships. Hydran's simply have tough ships and all that center hull soaks up damage and allows the Hydran to keep beating on the opponent. And of course the fighters are way more than a nuisance. If you don't deal with them they have a tendency to sneak in close and whack you. If you deal with them you've used firepower on them rather than the ship. Win-win for the Hydran.
My other car is a D7 Battlecruiser.
