Battle Report: Airfield Ambush 3

Since this table-setting hasn't been used in almost two years I decided to break it out again.  Technically this is the fourth use of this setting but the last one has the "Paper Asylum" tag.

Me (4 Frames & 16 Systems) = (7 Points per Asset) * (6 assets) = 42 points. (Invictus)
   Red Soldier -- 2Rd/1B/1G/1Y/2W + SSR.
   Blue Soldier -- 2Rd/1B/1G/1Y/2W + SSR.
   Green 
Soldier -- 2Rd/1B/1G/1Y/2W + SSR.
   Yellow Squad Leader -- 2Rd/1B/2Y/2W.

PJ_Nichts (5 Frames & 19 Systems) = (4 Points per Asset) * (7 assets) = 28 points. (mechs)
   Blue Soldier -- 2Rd/1B/1G/1Y/2W.
   Purple Soldier -- 2Rd/1B/1G/1Y/2W.
   Grey Warrior -- 2Rh/1B/1G+d8/1Y/2W.
   Yellow Light Recon by Fire -- 2Ra/2Y/2W.
   Red Fast Brawler -- 2Rh+d8/1B/1G+d8/2W + SSR(x3).

Tom (5 Frames & 20 Systems) = (3 Points per Asset) * (7 assets) = 21 points.
   Grey Armored Swarmer -- 2Rh/2B/1Y + SSR.
   Green Armored Swarmer -- 2Rh/2B/1Y + SSR.
   Yellow Armored Swarmer -- 2Rh/2B/1Y.
   White Armored Swarmer -- 2Rh/2B/1Y + SSR.
   Blue Recon by Fire -- 2Ra+d8/2Y/2W.

This is what the table looked like at the start of the game.

Thoughts & Observations:
  • We used the Roof Rule!
  • We had two separate incidents of Falling damage.
  • The cargo plane got wrecked.
  • PJ Nicht's Stations were pretty impressive.
  • As were his Frames.
