Right, Orks are next.

The Grots attempt to fix the jam and would have succeeded if it wasn't for the suppressive fire. Suppressive fire makes it harder to clear jams. Getting shot at really makes everything harder. The others get a half-action reload in making for a half-reloaded kannon on the APC side. Both Tankhammer Orks sit cozy in their cover.

Bahzil's spidy senses kick in again allowing him to successfully dodge his second kannon shell. His Comrade was, fortunately enough for him, just slightly outside of the blast radius. Comrades are really weak to blast attacks. Wouldn't it have been nice if Ritchie was this lucky?

Both Orks continue charging at you since they can't really hit anything unless their gun is in your face.

Well I don't see anything which flashlighting would help and the enemy is still charging slowly enough that I can't frag them yet so... hang out?

Admittedly it might be my job to go fetch Ritchie but I don't think that's practical.

Given what happened to Ritchie it’s probably best to not be getting shot while recovering the bugger.

You hang out! You're not pinned anymore. So you have that going for you.

Hey, that's me again! It's really fast when 2/5 of the team are missing.

You know what I'm going to say. Keep up the cavalry charge until the dumbasses are rescued. Only about five more turns! Fewer if they run toward me too.

Gas, gas, gas you step a moderate amount on the gas to propel yourself forward at entirely reasonable and safe speeds. Gill tries to help by thinking Red thoughts.

The other APCs continue their much less rescue focused charge while blasting away. They get decent rolls on the blasting away bit but still can't shoot worth anything. I guess making the enemy particularly small creatures when the rules assume you're fighting particularly large vehicles was probably a flaw on my part. Probably should have stated up the grot armed kannon as a single unit, but then your infantry sneakyness wouldn't have worked as well.

The not-APC Thale was just active yesterday so lets see if he shows up.

You could have them try to shoot at and break the guns themselves rather than attempting to snipe the gunners using machine guns?

Maybe they could damage the cover some, too.  Shooting a wall has to be easier than the guy behind it.

We're talking about partially sapient undead spaghetti here, you can probably instruct it to only strangle specific diners.

blast away at the closest ork

The closest Ork being the ones running outside of the fort towards your friends. You unleash a wave of lasfire, kicking up dirt towards the target and the second Ork running nearby but fail to get any hits in when you're both moving.

Riding the adrenaline of your last hit, you completely fail to follow up with anther successful shot or to utilize the power of the Warp. At least you used up all your good rolls for not dying to explosives.

All three kannons remain pinned for another turn! The team remains unable to fix their jam due to suppressive fire keeping them pinned, which is good for the APC side. The functioning APC side kannon finishes reloading and will be able to fire next turn. Dismount side kannon half-reloads.

Tank hammers both just muck about.

Charging Orks continue to charge. They're now in convenient grenading distance, 28 meters from the forest. Which is also two turns from being very able to take out everyone in the dismount team. Do your best dismount team!
