----------------
Wayside V, temporary camp some distance north of 'Andrea's Furnace'. Regaining his footing after the missed swing, Korora glances at the enemy mech, and sees Jay Kayell getting inside the open cockpit. Wasting no time, he turns his attention to the remaining adversary, lunging forward with a precision punch aimed straight at the thin slit of the mech's cockpit. At the same time, Zako-clones 3 and 4 fruitlessly attempt to literally blow the pilot out of the mech, but the armored cockpit canopy prevents their success. Being essentially child-size, neither of them can force the hatch open with their strength either. And then suddenly, the clanner pilot alphastrikes Korora with everything he has. Screaming something barely coherent about killing his partner, he unleashes a storm of missiles and autocannon fire that Korora simply has no time to dodge!
At minimum distance, ten of the twelve missiles impact Korora only slightly later than most of the autocannon barrage tears into his armor. The force of the impacts first slows, then throws Korora back onto the ground, numerous large sheets of his armor shattered by the attack! Surprisingly, he's not seriously injured. The ferro-fibrous armor did its job, soaking most of the onslaught into its structure and leaving Korora largely unharmed, but with serious armoring issues. The clanner steps in to follow up on the attack, but suddenly the smaller Clan mech moves! Jay Kayell, even without the busted neurohelmet, manages to control the machine's movements just enough to aim a missile attack in the clanner's direction! Unfortunately, his attack goes wide, six missiles screaming way past the enemy's left shoulder and harmlessly exploding in the distance.
Suddenly, the clanner flinches and loses balance! Having used the attack exchange to their advantage, Kashyyk and Boksi have staged an attack on the clanner mech's left leg! Charging in with the prowess of a Dark Templar, Boksi brings his Darkfire Halberd onto the enemy's vulnerable foot joint! In just three slashes, he exposes the myomer fibers that move the mech's foot, and in another swift slash, he severs them completely! The mech staggers, limping backwards while its weapons reload. Meanwhile, Kashyyk drops his shield and scales the mech's armor, suddenly bringing himself up into the pilot's view. To the clanner's credit, he doesn't seem surprised or scared of this sudden development, but his position is becoming increasingly dangerous.
In the meantime, the others recuperate from the missile strike. LASD meditates, trying to divine something from his artifact. Qwer'Ty passes out from his pain. While Frelock unsuccessfully tries to heal himself, Neo gets up and looks around for a weapon more suitable for anti-mech combat. Without thinking too long, he runs over to where he last saw Simon. As he half-expected, the trooper didn't survive the missile that had hit him, his upper body hideously mangled by the explosion, and a large part of his head missing. It doesn't bother Neo in the least though, as he rummages through Simon's backpack and procures the miraculously intact explosives.

I don't think you'll be needing these, thank you. I'm no demolitions expert, but I think you blew your chance to be a hero. Heh..
------------
Background: [4] Jay Kayell, having unceremoniously thrown the pilot's corpse from the seat, frantically tries to introduce himself to the battlemech's controls. Thankfully, some of the functions are easily understood, and there are visual indicators for the most important things. The mech is undamaged save for the «cockpit open» warning, its weapons are almost fully loaded. He can see four weapons on the readout. Two appear to be «ER Medium Lasers», mounted on the oddly positioned arms, and one of each «SRM-6» and «SRM-4» on the torso. The «SRM-6» is rapidly reloading. The radar identifies the nearby mech as friendly, which is no surprise. The name of the mech is listed as «Ebon Jaguar». Suddenly, Jay sees two small figures on the ground. Zooming the view on them, he sees that they're Zako's 3 and 4, rather injured after falling seven-something meters from the mech they stood on.

Artifacts:
Description: A massive, massive, MASSIVE sword. It is three meters long, 1'3'' (~40cm) wide, and dazzingly bright. Its fine steel has been polished to reflect light like a mirror. Its one edge is curved, jagged at the hilt, the other is straight and so sharp it could probably slice adamantine blocks like salami. Down the center of the sword, which is at least 2'' thick, runs a hollow slit 3'' wide, in which yeat another, smaller and straighter sword is concealed. The entire surface of both swords, except of course the sharp cutting edges, is finely engraved with uncountable images, among which the launching of the Challenger, world war II, a nuclear explosion, a trainwreck, and a rotary excavator. The hilt itself (being at the same time the hilt of the smaller sword) is decorated with gold and emeralds you can only assume you've taken from someone, arranged in beautiful patterns, and the handle is woven with three lines - one is a scaly snake with two small rubies in the eyes, and two seem awfully like DNA strands. You get a feeling you could decipher the human genome if you looked closely enough. The guard of the hilt is exquisitely detailed as well, but right down the senter of it, spanning the breadth of the sword, is a solid rectangular golden plate, with the single word: "ASHCRAVER" deeply embossed onto it. The entire thing is so immeasurably brilliant, you almost don't want to touch it fearing it'll stick to your hand and corrupt you like some magic ring. Overcoming this fear, you pick it up. Despite its size, it is relatively lightweight, relatively, of course, to anything else so large and made of steel. The hilt of the smaller blade has a folding guard that makes the weapon look like an overgrown sai.
Parameters (full sword): +2 to damage, +1 to attack, -1 agility.
Parameters (core blade): +1 to damage.
Known Details: The Ashcraver seems to accumulate the energy released by the deaths it causes. The process is admittedly rather slow, but has good uses.
Can heal wounds.
In mech form, Korora can unsheathe the sword by shouting "ASHCRAVER! MAXIMUM POWER!"
The sword has an AoE ranged projectile attack activated by shouting "RAIN OF PAIN!"
Description: The ring consists of a toroidal adamantine core surrounded by a shell of tempered steel with thin bands of gold along the rims of the ring. Set into an adamantine frame on its top is a Star Sapphire imbued with the dark soul of a Greater Demon, under absolute control of the wearer. The steel surface of the ring is covered by three hundred tiny tiles of granite, engraved with images of various creatures, all being dead.
Parameters: Applies a -1 penalty to using Fire and Darkness manipulation for every active effect already applied. Current penalties: -2 Darkness.
Known Details:
The wearer of the ring may call onto the soul of the demon, which can manipulate darkness and fire - anything from direct projection to creating sentient forms to giving protection against.
The wearer can also give an order to summon a creature mad with rage (any creature from the DF world you have seen), which will use up one or several of the stone tiles, depending on the power of the creature. The tiles may be restored, but only through personally killing sentient creatures with bare hands and absorbing their essence with the ring, which also adds that creature to the "summonable creatures" list.
The price to pay for all this power is a constant aura of darkness that any living being will feel (and will react accordingly), and the wearer may, under critical stress, give in and become controlled by the trapped demon soul.
Description: An odd-looking gnarly stick made of iron and steel. The many wrinkles and crevices on its surface are ever so slightly glowing.
Parameters: No quantifiable effects.
Known Details: The staff feels special, capable of doing wonrous things. Some of those things include: summoning a small lightning that seems to charge the staff, when being hit against the ground; launching a spark of electricity that explodes in a sparkling firework-like burst, on giving a generic mental command.
Description: (Universal Radiowave Manipulator) A hexagonal reflective box, rougly a foot across and 10cm thick.
Parameters: No quantifiable effects.
Known Details: It can receive, process, transmit, focus, and disperse energy waves over a rather wide electromagnetic spectrum. Can work as a radio or a mini-microwave. Contains a battery that can be recharged by applying any electricity to the surface.
---------
Locations: Planet Wayside V: The planet seems to be barren as a whole. The sky is green here, and the air is cold. Or maybe it's just autumn here.
Large Valley: A rather dull and barren, though very large, rocky valley covered by reddish clay soil with patches of some unknown weeds or moss. Filled with broken rock and debris. Sloping mountains or plateaus many kilometers tall seem to surround it. A relatively narrow pass leads into the Vast Plain.
Sub-area 1: Starting Point. The place you initially appeared at.
Sub-area 2: First Contact. Where your truck was destroyed by an aerospace fighter (and later rebuilt, driven off elsewhere and crashed again). The disabled Wolf Trap is here.
Sub-area 3: Andrea's Furnace. Somewhere far north of Area 2 - the fighter crashlanded there. And subsequently exploded, leaving a large crater and killing the crew of the two scout buggies sent by Fusiliers. Then Andrea blew the place up along with a bigger convoy. And then Zako's hurricane, aided by a mysterious force, levelled it completely. All players are here.
Sub-area 4: Saramrakust Kosak. A great engraved slab of hard white stone east of the Furnace, that is the top of a buried obelisk that stands over the grave of the dwarf Kosak Sidasin Lokumzuden.
Sub-area 5: Unknown. A pillar of dark smoke rising northeast of the Furnace.
Fusiliers' camp "Wildcat": A small military camp set up amidst the hills in the large valley. Something terrible might have happened there.
Vast Plain: An enormous plain connected to the large valley by a relatively narrow passage. Its ground is different from that of the valley, but you don't know what it is yet. Might be a former ocean bottom.
