"We can handle this!" You say with slightly false reassurance. "Stick with the President!"

"Roger that." Lilian says reluctantly.

"You need help, just call out for it, yeah?" Amy says, trying to keep herself from sounding concerned.

"Noted." You grunt as you form up on Lara. "Any ideas on how to handle this, Stripes?"

"I was thinking we take him out on a head on pass!" Lara says eagerly.

You're not sure if Lara had actually read up on her history, or if she was just going to her default engagement tactic. Nevertheless, you remember that in the only recorded battle against a Morgan, it was taken out in a head on pass since its ECM systems couldn't protect its front engine intakes.

Then again, sensor tech has advanced in the past two decades, so maybe its ECM wasn't up to date. Besides, there were safer ways to engage a single enemy...

"All right, Stripes, we're going in!" You grunt.

"Sweet!" Lara says happily. "So how about the pilot who doesn't get the kill buys the drinks tonight?"

"Pretty cocky of you." You grin, trying to keep your heartbeat under control.

Finally, your two Eagles complete their turns right as the Morgan does as well, both sides facing each other down. Your missile lock warning wails as the Morgan's radar spikes you for a target lock. You have no doubt Lara's is doing so as well, but you ignore it, focusing on the rapidly expanding silhouette in front of you, a red box forming around it to inform you that you have a positive lock. However, you see flashes as the Morgan begins firing off missiles.

>The best of three rolls are taken. Natural 1s will always succeed regardless of modifiers or skill rating. Natural 10s will negate your best roll, even if it is a Natural 1. In cases where one or more Natural 1s are rolled, you achieve a CRITICAL SUCCESS. However, if more than one Natural 10 is rolled, then you suffer a CRITICAL FAILURE.

That's all it says in the rules about rolling. Nowhere does it say anything about dice pools, just 1d10 rules. In fact by trying to learn the rules from the paste it tricked him into thinking it worked that way. Honestly I've been here from thread 1 and I still had no idea how he did 3d10s until somebody spelled it out today. No idea how they knew, Merc probably said specifically once.

You let two missiles and a QAAM fly. One fails to track but the other two get a solid lock. Lara fires off her missiles as well, but the ECM is too great, and her missiles all spiral off uselessly into the air. Meanwhile, the missiles the Morgan fired were shot in haste, and only one manages to track. Unfortunately, you see that it's tracking YOU. The Morgan immediately pulls away, dumping chaff and flares while you do the same.

Not that anon but you do realise the hardest solution for a vampire to track is in a head on pass right? In a head on pass the vampire has much greater difficulty keeping track and achieving a terminal solution and moving to execute that solution, its pretty simple to avoid a head on pass vampire.

Doesn't matter what verse it is when Merc's done the exact opposite in the past.

Wait, I thought those only count for anti-ship missiles?

>>38528585
Which is bullshit, past actions and competence should always be relevant, especially Merc's past actions... Or did he roll dice to stay internally consistent and critfail?

guys, note you're eating up posts arguing with the shitposters...

>>38528772
I think it's a general term for inbound anti-anything missile

I would just like to say that the best position to defeat an inbound missile is when it is oblique to you.

That is all.

>>38528809
It isn't.

>inferior RA2 hellmarch and not original
Frank Klepaki really got worse and worse after the original C&Cs. Tib Sun only had moody tracks with no memorable ones, RA2 had good songs but weren't as fun as the original RA's soundtrack.

>>38528853

I always prefered RA3's Hellmarch. The first two seem kinda flat and primitively put together. They're showing their age.

Your Eagle shudders as the missile explodes on proximity fuse, showering the plane with armor piercing shrapnel. Damage alarms start wailing as you peel off.

"Shit, Stripes, can you do a damage check?" You grunt.

"You got some holes in your right wing." Lara says. "Don't see anything else."

You crane your head to the right to see that indeed, your right wing was pockmarked with dents and holes where the shrapnel hit.

>-2 hp
>10 hp remains

You test your controls, and your flaps respond. Good, that means your hydraulics were still working. You were still in this.

"Stripes, where's the Morgan?"

"He's put some distance between us, but he's still lurking." Lara says.

"Any hits?"

"Nah, he's a slippery bastard." Lara sighs. "He managed to shake your missiles.

Well damn, that meant you were slightly behind now.

"What's the plan?" Lara asks.

This Morgan is not exactly like the fodder you've been dealing with up to now!

And remember, you chose to pull out in the middle of the pass, so the missile had a better chance of tracking you, though it wouldn't deal as much damage.

I far prefer RA2 in most respects, but I really liked the soundtrack on 3. Although obviously 2's was very appropriate for the general aesthetic. Particularly the dynamic music. How The West Was Won is a hell of a track to start up during airstrikes.

"We'll split up. I'll lure him in." You say.

"Ah, wounded gazelle gamibt, eh? Pretty bold." Lara chuckles.

"As long as I get half the bounty." You grumble. "I'm trusting you with my life here, you know!"

"Yeah, I got it. Are you ready?"

"Yeah. I'll make a hard turn, make it look like I'm trying to retreat. If he takes the bait, that's when you pounce."

"Gotcha!"

You then swing your plane around, making yourself look like you're trying to disengage from the combat zone.

"Watch out, Wild Card Four, that Morgan's starting to come around. I think he's taking the bait!" Loki announces.

>>38529502
I'm kind of on the fence about that there are a lot of different kinds of aces out there but they pretty much all have fat sacks.

But I agree flying smart is most important, but I don't really think it has to conflict with ballsiness when it's due. This case is a great example, flying into minimum range would have been the safer option, but people just voted for the one that sounded safer. And a whole lot of anons seemed to know it would have been safer not to break off early after the vote was made, could've said something earlier.

You pull your stick up in a steep climb. Not enough to risk stalling, but just enough that the Morgan would have to sacrifice a lot of airspeed to stay on your tail. A beep on your radar indicates that he's taking the bait, as he climbs after you.

"Stripes, I hope you're in position." You grunt.

"Give me eight more seconds!" Lara responds.

"Warning, heat buildup detected! He's going to fire his laser!" Loki warns.

You mind races for available options. You could hit afterburners and go into a powerclimb to try and shake his aim and force him to sacrifice more airspeed. However, going into a dive would probably be more effective at getting out of line of sight, but that might make it tougher for Lara to get a lock on him.

Or you could be crazy and flip to engage him head on...

Well, if you were going to do something against an opponent in a tricked out bird, you might as well do something crazy. You engage an incredibly tight flip, taking advantage of your new thrust vectoring to literally flip in place, letting gravity do the rest as your nose lines up with the pursuing Morgan.

"What the-!?!" You hear him gasp in surprise over an open channel.

You don't even wait for tone. You just fire your missiles as fast as you can.

The Morgan fires its laser, but you can tell it's a rushed snap shot, as it goes high, passing just above your canopy by a few dozen meters, but even then, you can feel the heat bleeding through your canopy. However, you try to ignore the searing beam and focus on your missiles, which streak in, homing in on the biggest heat source they can detect.

Three missiles simultaneously plow in the Morgan's Tactical Laser System, blowing the module to pieces and engulfing the Morgan in fire. For a second, you think you've downed it but hear the voice again.

"Damnit!" The Morgan's pilot curses she detaches the smoldering ruins of the TLS and continues her climb, shooting past you up into the sky.

"HAHA, nice one, Valk!" Lara whoops as her Eagle flashes by in pursuit. "Don't worry, I got this!"

You dive to gain more airspeed and turn to try and get back on the Morgan's trail. You can see it trying to shake Lara's pursuit as she closes in.

"Wild Cards, I'm picking up additional bogeys, most likely reinforcements." Loki warns. "A pair of Su-37s. ETA one minute."

Well, damn.
