Okay more dakka after this update.

The fisher dragged his little canoe full of chunk of meats that may pass as fish if checked at certain angles. As he pull his catch over the beach, he took a disgruntled look at a group of young lads loading rusty barrels of waste on their truck. The fishermutant knew about the pirates who built their refuge somewhere deeper in the island and he hated it. They bought so much scrap metals and chemicals for their strange purposes that scavengers started to pick materials of the sea. He could see the familiar piles of debris getting smaller and disappearing every day and if those pirate gals were not put in check soon, the sea would become clean, what madness!
1 Oct 2601The predator launched from Wako base several times, checking on ships passing by, and came back with a nasty blow on its hull. The last ship it could check landed right in the middle of a nearby city. Soon enough distress signals could be heard.
Pogrom #10The Wako base team assembled, wearing amazon outfits for the most of them, ready to stop the pogrom that this ship initiated.
But it turned out that the gals, not experienced enough for this, were embarrassed from being seen by civilians in this outfit and got really distracted. They dropped off with barely any sticks to shake at the enemy.
The battle went badly. Lita Boyl saw her friends die to laser fire and smoke filled the landing area, making the situation harder.
Then the scouts spotted a cyberdisk, it was obvious that this battle cannot be won so they tried to pull back. Without success.
The cyberdisk flew over buildings to get a sight over the Pidgeon landing area. That was too much and Lita Boyl made a ran for it. Only one other gal made it back with her, the last one alive and conscious was too wounded to move through the smoke without fainting so she stayed back, trying to get one or two soldiers with her to the grave.
The guild can celebrate their victory, it would not last.
2 Oct 2601Eve Jobs-sama personally interrogated the guild master. He knew surprisingly little for a leader beside the tools he used in the base. Next time the gals should come across one of these guild masters, they’ll be used for ransom money instead.
The tool was still a great weapon that replaced the daggers as a secondary attack. It was relatively easy to produce and could be worn on the belt. The gals also figured the production of tranquilizer ammo for the harpoons. The gals rarely use those, but it was still an option to keep for the days the gals knows that there is no guild guards.
5 Oct 2601A ship similar to the ones swaying governments has been spotted in asia, the predator shot it down and the Bonaventura lifted off to harvest their occupants.
Crash #6Darkening Kaos led the way, a grenade launcher in one hand, a flame thrower in another.
The guards threw their grenade together and failed to kill anyone, thanks to the TAC armors the gals were wearing. Most of the team was wounded however to Jehanne and Angel jumped down to give the first aid.
This is where tragedy struck. Another explosive flew from a storage barn and fell on Jehanne’s feet, too busy trying to bandage another gal. No one expected that and when Darkening Kaos recovered from the ensuing explosion, it was too late. Jehanne was killed.
Powered armored guards came out of this tiny barn, from the corner of the operation area, accompanied with more guards. It was their plan. To leave the ship as soon as it crashed and all go into a small area.
The problem is this. There is still 14 gals in the area and among them a very angry Tah Tah. She took a blunderbuss gal with her and quickly moved into cover while the other gals tossed black powder bombs to kill the less armored guards. The gal dropped after the blunderbuss shots weakened the protective plates and slashed both power armors quickly, then hit them again, and again, until they were nothing but a pile of separated limbs.
The was a costy combat, but it had to be done.
8 Oct 2601The runts concentrated on their work to best ignore the mourning. They listed all the pieces from both 30 mm and 50 mm cannon. After reverse engineering these pieces of artillery, they are now able to assemble working pieces out of parts, which they did, arming the predator at the base with superior short range firepower. All these needed next was to break open the magazines and move the ammunition to the hangars.
Eve Jobs-sama on her side red another gun almanach, a special number about recoilless rifles. Those are very powerful and she hope to find one someday.
The brainers could better identify the ship where Jehanne lost her life. It was not the diplomatic ship that was expected, but a combat vessel. This explained the vaguely smart and armored soldiers.
Eve Jobs-sama made a captured pest control pay for the lives of her gals. When she was finished, the man lost all his sanity and was thrown outside. She could learn about his job and his tools.
The guild representative had a better fate and she was sensitive of the mutants problems. She offered to work for Eve Jobs-sama who accepted. All humans were not worthless after all. The gals were happy to have a good looking pen pusher do their bookkeeping.
14 Oct 2601The base ran silent for a moment as the lights went out. Minutes laters, the power was back and the screens turned red, delivery all kind of new information. Now the Cave of Booty no longer had to rely on eyes to find enemies, they only had to listen.
Soon enough the runts could report all kind of information about the ships flying by and could tell who was who without leaving the base.
At the same time, the gals made more progress on the laser weapons, it is disheartening to disassemble these valuable guns but one day they will be able to make their own ammo and then the pirates will run everyday shooting heavy lasers at their enemies.
18 Oct 2601A ship fly by the Wako Base, so the fighter jet took off to take it off. After pursuing it over long distances, it finally riddled it with cannon shell and sent it to crash in the desert. It was disturbing that is generated a cloaking field that prevent a visual during the fight.
The Bonaventura landed near the ship that looked like…
… okay!
The combat was over quickly. It is not the first time the gals fought the humanists and these soldiers held no chance. A couple of them was brought back alive to interrogation. They broke as easily under Eve Jobs-sama’s treatment than on the field.
The brainers and the runts also worked hand in hand to get all they could from one of the last church reverend, when they sure they could not learn anything else, the last one was sold to the slave market. The same was done on a guild representative.
24 Oct 2601The hyperwave decoder picked a signal. Like every month, the guild was going to initiate a pogrom. This time however, the transport ship going for it cannot dodge the sight the Eve Jobs-sama. The predator met it over South America gave it a taste of its high caliber cannons!
The Bonaventura then went to have a pogrom, a pureblood pogrom. It landed in the jungle, in sight of the damage battleship. Rince Wind got a hold on a new kind of laser weapon. Designed for hunting, she could use it like a sniper rifle with all the power of a lasgun, and it was perfect.
With the stream blocking the way south, the gals deployed to attack the ship. They met the pest control disk usually seen in the cities but those were confused by the trees and other non-city features and those has to flew high, high enough to be picked one by one by the sniper wizzard.
But, after advancing though a few guards who were offed at distance, the gals found themselves against a cyberdisk. Of course cyberdisks was to be used in the pogrom. The only gal who had a rocket launcher was taking the other entrance and the pirates needed a miracle. Amperzand threw an elerium grenade at the machine. If it was made of elerium then it should be good.
And indeed a miracle happened.
Fatima Ann went to reproduce this one the other side, leaving a grenade at the other cyberdisk. But this did not work. What worked however was her colleague ambushing it outside with her acid blunderbuss loaded. These machines were not so scary anymore.
Rince Wind could see this from a safe distance, she felt fine sitting on the dropship, not taking part in any of this, staying safe…
The gals then went inside, shooting and hitting anyone left inside. The ship was their and they did not get a single scratch.
There was not much of a monetary gain here but this fight prove how the pirates now control the skies. They stopped a pogrom. They stopped it before it even started!
That was a good time for the brainers to study the plan of warships, this could lead to even better craft than the predator.
30 Oct 2601After the runt used the tools on their VIP guests, Eve Jobs-sama visited the broken revend and representative to have them tell anything that the other captives may have forgotten.
The rep also provided information on contract they have sometimes with the mercs.
The brainers kept reading old Earth books, the visual ones in particular. Then they proceeded to argue all day about who could beat who, what story arc was meaningful and all kind of subject that bore Eve Jobs-sama. The pirate boss told them that is they love muscular males in spandex so much, why not they play this fantasy with the slaves?
Then she went for more sane reading, another gun almanach. It happens that autoguns are not as powerful as they look, but that’s something she had to expect from something for this line of weapons.
And so the month ended.
