Galactic Heroes

Finally got a chance to play something after a month off. We had a five player game of Galactic Heroes. The 2 defenders got to set up first and trying to prevent the 3 attackers from reaching the airfield with their robot containing important intel.
A tower dominated the choke point on the table. It quickly became the focus of most of the attackers fire.
The tower had to be re-manned a few times, finally by the attackers.


 Note to self: Don't stand in the open on a hill.
The defenders had to keep falling back. The attackers got over confident and got the robot too close to enemy fire. It went down sparks flying.
Not to worry, a quick repair task (5+) would fix it.
Except the technician rolled a "1", wiping the memory and disabling the bot.
All that was left was escaping. The outnumbered bravely held out as long as they could, but were finally overwhelmed.
Great game. Lots of "Fistful of Lead" moments.
