- Vortex group
They wait. And wait. And wait. Slowly but surely, the kaiju close in. Only once does Vortex slow, its helmet sliding open beneath the waves. A moment later, six new Spawn swim to the surface, joining the crowd.
6 Spawn created!
After that, the creature speeds up, regaining its pace with its army. The leading edge crosses Jagdhund's maximum range...
And the jaeger opens fire!
Roll me 3x 1d10+3 for mulching Spawn, no hit locations required.
Vortex is 40 units from your ground conventionals, and 35 from your others. Spawn have their maximum edge at five units closer.
Current Spawn: 66

- Telson group
Tacit Ronin assumes a wide, tense stance, hydrazine maneuvering jets twitching on their gimble mounts. If Telson has some sort of ridiculous super-charge like the last one, Tacit won't get caught off-guard by it.
"Engaging automated targeting assist! Motion tracking calculations are underway!"
"All scouts, heat up your dishes. Soon as it gets close enough that the sky doesn't fuck our Arges, lay it on like butter."
"Get ready, everyone-- oh hell, here it comes!"
Telson charges forwards, zipping just into range of the Heimdal!
Roll 1d10+2, hitting on 8s, with a hit location if it lands.
Telson is 26 units from your forces.

(4,7,11)
Jagdhund unleashes a barrage of fire that would give even Striker Eureka pause. High-explosive shell after shell cut through the ranks of kaiju, Blue spraying into the air like a grotesque light-show.
18 Spawn killed!
Out of Ammo!
Unfortunately, in the middle of all this, the gun jams. Jagdhund simply rips the magazine off, her backpack already drawing a new one to use.
Vortex does not move, dim orange eyes watching from its hollow sockets impassively. Its swarm, however, does. The waves of grub-like beasts surge forwards, jaws snapping mindlessly.
Vortex is 40 units from your ground conventionals, and 35 from your others. Spawn are now 29/24 from said forces. Keep in mind that your scouts and boats are capable of movement, in case you want to paste some with missiles or torps.
Current Spawn: 48

For once, the Heimdal actually hits something. It seems that, even with the difficulties of tracking the moving target, the gunners have managed to nail their target right in the center! The railspike crashes into the kaiju's reinforced chest, buckling the armour-- but unfortunately, doing little else.
Hit to Chest! 1 Strike!
Telson snaps its fangs, and puts on more speed, halving the distance between it and the irritating machines!
Telson is now 12 units from your forces. He does not look happy that you actually hurt him.

No flourishes until Noah's out of the hospital. He's recovering, yes, but he's still very much not in the giant robot.
Boy, it sure does suck to not have one of your main pilots actually piloting, doesn't it?

Whoops, forgot we lost that one.
Should we have any of our units try and fire on Vortex? Where are our helicopters?

Choppers are all with Tacit. Nobody with JH is in range of Vortex even after moving.
edit: Two Scout Choppers are with JH but that's it.

Huh, I could have sworn there was some form of Hellhound support with Jagd.
Oh well, nevermind.

Looks like this is the only thing that hasn't been rolled yet so I guess I'll take it.
....what the actual fuck. Three 1s in a row. ._.

Wow. Hopefully that doesn't affect us. Besides the whole out of ammo thing.

It's only rolls of 0 or less that result in serious misfired. These just missed like champions.

Alright, good
Around the Tacoma area, there is a base called McChord AFB, I reccomend we check it out to try and gather some plane technology after the fight.

You need a third hitloc. Arges bonus makes that 3 hit, I believe.

If that is the case aledeth already rolled it.
