    Your heavy haulers go out to collect the drowning natives while your heavy combat drones move back on to land. Some natives that still held on crunch noisily beneath their tracks.

    You have captured:
    93 Chimps
    56 Apes

    Build 6 habitats.

    Call AR. They said they needed more slaves if their parent corp was going to supply EMP. Find out that number. We may want to hold off trading the slaves until we can basically make them get EMP for us (and them).

    Also, who would be able to sell us EMP shielding for our drones? Or do we need to tech lab that?

    Finally, looks like our tear gas is quite successful. Probably useful enough to use on the battlefield, although the lack of visibility will prove highly problematic unless we find a solution.

    It moves approximately at the same speed as drones with repulsor technology in an atmosphere but can accelerate to a maximum of approximately a fifth of the speed of light in vacuum. It's designed for interstellar travel. You're able to turn off the thruster so that it consumes no more fuel - but so that it still floats in the position that it was in.
    It's a spaceship engine, not a drone method of locomotion. Something with a propulsion thruster must be constructed and launched from a heavy construction facility.

    Dozens of pulse shells suddenly rain down from the heavens, smashing into ground. Debris flies everywhere and the sonic sensors of the drones are briefly ringing from the massive blastwave. Just as the pieces of soggy bark and rotten leaf fly into the air, so does the earth descend, collapsing on itself as the many worming tunnels beneath the earth fall apart, too shaken to maintain their structure. Muffled screams are heard as literally hundreds of men and women of every race struggle to escape the damp soil, many of them already crushed and killed.

    You allow Lemmington to advance alongside your light flamers - but the superheavy transports come to a halt and the rest slow to a snail's pace and the transport opens up, several racks carrying... things... appearing and unleashing them.
    Each superheavy transport carries fifty of these things. Gas masks are grafted on to their faces, a long, sharp blade is grafted on to each arms. These lankey monsters are obviously starved and are completely naked, with any indication of gender removed. They scream wildly as they run forward, blade arms milling about - a grand total of two thousand of them. They run ahead of the other Lemmington vehicles while the superheavies retreat, but they don't catch up with your flamers, lagging just a little bit behind.

    The first line of defense for Uni-Peace is doused with tear-gas and almost immediately, all of the victims collapse, the first line rendered completely useless. The second line of defense, however, rises up. Over a hundred explosive bolts go flying, dozens landing in your flamers. However, your flamers are yet to be in range with the second line. What do you do?

    I think we're pretty set on tear gas for the second line. If there's any ground in front of us that hasn't been pulsed, pulse it.

    As shells fall from the heavens, the second line dives back down, retreating into their holes. Approximately half are caught in the wave of mist, falling down, incapacitated and writhing on the muddy floor. With a care in a world, the lobotomies speed past the second line, ignoring everyone there, even as the third line collapses and dozens of men and woman are drowned in mud, others of them trying to escape.

    Three of the heavy Lemmington transports stop and heavily armoured clones climb out, twenty from each. Forty of them are armed with assault rifles while twenty of them are armed with decontaminators, chemical throwers, weapons perfectly suited for the tunnels below. Your flamer drones are just about to pass over the second line and the fourth line is already firing at the lobotomies approaching the third line, many of them ducking down in order to avoid your covering fire - some of which is accidentally hitting the lobotomies. Lemmington doesn't seem to care, though.

    Missles are launched.

    They arrive approximately when the lobotomies reach Line 9, and they will hit Line 11 through to Line 36.

    LP: "My sensors are a'tinglin'. You just shot some rockets?

    The tear gas hits Line 4 - but almost all of the hippies have hidden underground before the shells strike. How fortunate, then, the the pulse shell arrives to bury them in the tunnels they hide in, leaving only a couple dozen on the surface, groaning. The lobotomies run straight past Line 5, hacking and slashing away whatever's in their way before they continue, their footsteps followed by the lethal chemical spray off your Lemmington allies and the heat of your drones' flames, while given supporting fire in the form of a lasers and lightning.

    Your next choice?

    The thousands of lobotomies race ahead, gibbering and slurring beneath their masks as they try and reach some unknown destination for some unknown reason - but they happen to act as the perfect meatshields, running through all of the enemy fire without a care in a world. The various Lemmington vehicles trail after them, dousing anything that isn't unconscious with a vile cocktail of chemicals. The haulers pick up the living and discard the dead and everything run perfectly smoothly as a jagged path is cut through the forest.

    But, suddenly it happens. There's a brief click and then a soft boom. Vines rapidly grow out of the air, looking to grapple and wrestle with something, anything. They reach for the tracks of your drones, the artillery drones to be precise. They attempt to grapple with them and hold them back, as is their nature, while a new threat is detected. Natives, and by the hundreds, coming from the North, South towards your drones, dozens of gorillas among them.

    Further up the field of battle, suddenly, a Lemmington vehicle explodes. Followed by another, and another, showering the surroundings with chemicals and bodyparts. Distant shapes flicker through the air, just barely invisible, on the verge of being possible to see.

    How do you wish to deal with these two threats?

    Hit the area in front of the natives with tear gas. Lots of tear gas. Make them hold off or run through it. If they keep coming, use pulse shells to blast them back and napalm to make a more formidable barrier. While they're busy, deploy defoliant around all the drones affected by the vines.

    You don't have the time window to launch a tear gas missle in without landing it in the middle of your troops and causing damage in the however minor explosion. So, shells will have to suffice.

    You manage to get rid of the vines by remote-activating and destroying an Agent Amber shell that you shoot, as soon as it's fired, in the middle of the air. The plantlife disintegrates and the drones are free.

    But, something's wrong. Despite the tear gas, several of them are still running at you, insanely determined, all of their muscles tense and every vein in their native bodies ever so visible. Even after a pulse barrage, they keep on coming, screaming and snarling brutally. Only half of them have been taken down properly. They're almost in melee. What do you do?

    As for the mysterious cloaked offenders - despite everything that Lemmington does, he can't hit them at all - his units simply aren't long ranged enough. His tanks are rapidly being picked off, chemicals spilling over the ground as the cloaked individuals flicker across the battlescape.
