Battle Report – Federation vs Zeon and Getter vs Mazinger 1500pts

This is a battle report using the MechaStellar VER 9.2 Rules for a series of games we did testing out changes to HP, Evade and Shields. This is the second series, where we took the forces from the first series and then added one super robot each, this way we could also test out the modified close range weapons like Tomahawk boomerang and Rocket Punch.

Check below the break for a really fun battle!

Mazinger starts off the round strong, its jet scrander carrying it forward while it attacks with a photon energy beam, breast fire and an iron cutter for good measure destroying two GMs right off the bat.

The GM Kai’s move up the flank and start trading bazooka shots with the Doms.

But wait! Getter Robo has taken the high ground. A GETTER BEAM blasts downward into the two Doms

He only needed a 4+ and so he was hit by every shot and turned into a beautiful pink explosion.

But we’re not done yet! Getter flies off the mountaintop and charges into Mazinger Z eating a southern cross knife in Overwatch. He quickly overwhelms Mazingers defenses and scores a finishing blow.

The Zaku’s and a Dom with a machine gun fire on Getter bringing its HP to dangerously low levels. The noble GMs move forward trying to protect Getter by being the closest target.

Round 2

You’ll never guess who went first this round! Me!

The GMs tried to get revenge on my mighty Mazinger by surrounding him and unloading with their beam guns.

But a heroic Dom moves forward and blocks Mazinger with his body.

Then the enemy commander moving three times as fast rounds the corner and puts a beam through the reactor of my lovely Dom. Farewell Dom!

The onslaught is relentless and eventually Mazinger Z is brought to his knees with no Tetsuya to save him. Of course my Zaku Desert Type declared Revenge.

Over in Gouf land my lone GM Command was holding his own against a Gouf Custom, although after a hit, and a finishing blow he finally passed the armor save and lived on to keep fighting.

While he was busy the other Gouf slipped by and drove its heat sword into the unaware Guntank. Finally the artillery barrage would end.

Round 3

The Gouf goes in for the kill on a Guncannon to stop the artillery, but the dashing Guncannon fends him off and nearly smashes him into the ground on his turn to attack. Looking back perhaps I should have fired my weapon point blank.

As the GMs kept pressing forward I was down to my last Dom who took refuge with my magella Zaku’s and continued blasting from afar.

The Gouf Custom refused to follow my orders.

My orders were to win.

He didn’t.

This turned into quite the bloodbath. The GM Light Armor commander moved to the midfield while the remaining Guncannon killed off my Zakus. My Zaku Commander tried to kill him and then died in the process. My last Dom made a daring play to flank the GM Light Armor.

Round 4

You’ll never guess who went first this round! Not me!

Final score Zeon 21VP vs Federation 27VP

Good game! And what a fun one, I’m glad we took photos of this one.
