As is my way - I play games for the story and continuity (win or lose, I'm happy as long as it's a good game), so will throw up my stream of conscious out there for my own amusements. Feel free to ignore completely or chip in with your own tales of daring-do as desired.

Interesting little note I found on the after battle stuff -
If a unit is injured (i.e takes a wound but doesn't die), then not only does it miss the next game, it also can't use experience points to level up until after the next game it plays without getting injured.
Which means poor little Jorge the Sniper is not only out of action for the next game, but he's got to get through the game after that unscathed in order to use his experience!
I don't think Dave's going to let him live that long...

1st game of the campaign,
Enforcers (Stu) VS Rebs (Dave)
The hated Enforcer's Sniper, Jorge, continued to be horrible to play against when he took out the enemy's huge Teraton in the first shot of the game! In payback, Jorge was then kept suppressed and injured for the remainder of the battle.
The Enforcers pretty much hunkered down from then on and only crept forwards slowly. As their Hold mission paid to keep their heads down, they only emerged from cover when blown into the open by the Reb's well placed frag shots.
Despite losing their most effective (and expensive) unit early on, the Rebs pulled back a lot of points from their Scavenge mission, and ended with a marginal loss, but a very close game.
Final Score
Rebs 7
Enforcers 8
Several Enforcers have now levelled up, which means that I'm going to be able to afford even less of them....

Finally downloaded the piccies from mine and Dave's recent skirmish. The elite Enforcers bravely hide behind a wall Until Corporal Stimms breaks cover to deal with that pesky heavy gunner... But instead gets knocked down and kicked in the head for three consecutive turns

Speaking of heads, my Teraton has scooped up most of his and taped it back together using some Harry Black Maskers (that sh!t holds battleships together!). He's got a bit (more) Brian Damage from the "K-K-K-Kill Shot!" delivered by a cowardly Enforcer sniper named Jorge, who was busy all game either hiding in a building or crying for his mum. Upshot of it is, Terry the Teraton has a bit less command skill and actually costs less points now! He'll be sitting out the next game against ironskar while the HBM works its magic.

THIS JUST IN:INNOCENT REB REFUGEES ATTACKED BY FULL WEIGHT OF CORPORATION!!! MASSIVE FIRE-FIGHT LEAVES SEVERAL REB CIVILIANS DEAD AND WOUNDED!!!!
COWARDLY SNIPERS TARGETING TERATON CIVILIANS!!!
In yet another unprovoked attack by Corporation forces, the people of war-torn Zardos Prime braved sniper fire to gather much needed food and medical supplies from the bombed out remains of Zardos City. Terry, an innocent Teraton civilian (and brood father of 56 Tonlets) miraculously survived a head-shot from an Enforcer sniper. His fellow, also innocent, civilians bravely fought off the Enforcer patrol and managed to get him to an aid station. Unconfirmed reports suggest the sniper was killed, which saves on the cost of a war-crimes enquiry and subsequent trial.
Holographic evidence was gathered by this reporter at the scene of the incident. Viewers are warned the stills from the footage are a bit crap.
Terry the Teraton gets sniped while out shopping
Other innocent civilians, going about their lawful business, are forced to take cover from the Enforcer terrorists
The war criminal Jorge, and his spotter can be clearly seen here (red arrow) lying in wait to kill more unarmed victims.
Another evil Enforcer terrorist (green arrow) crawls between the rubble of war-torn Zardos City in his efforts to murder more women and children.

Rebs: We may be losing the ground war, but we're kicking ass and taking names in the PR war and that's all that counts!

A biased Corporate media take might mention that the heedless shopper is wearing combat armour, and the innocent civilians seem to be toting military grade weapons...

Due to the upsurgence of terrorist activity in the region another Enforcer team has been dispatched to the area. Unfortunately they are a bit green, this may result in some collateral damage....

We haven't been notified of any other forces in the area! This is clearly a filthy Reb trick or early onset Plague infestation, and you shall be dealt with accordingly Only Jorge is on my side. Jorge understands.

Jorge can understand all he likes. Just as long as he does it from the subs bench next game!

I'm looking to diversify anyway. The sniper is a little too easy to build a team around, and if he gets killed...
I've increased my Assault Enforcer Cpl Stimm's fight stat, and given Sgt. Studebaker the Brawler skill, plus I've just bought an Incinerator Enforcer, meaning that we should be able mix it up in close combat as well as shoot you from afar.
Huzzah!

Following the disastrous peacekeeping operation by the West Moors Enforcer Cooperative (who were ambushed by sneaky terrorist types). They have received reinforcements more capable of getting 'up close and personal'. Made out of a couple of Sedition wars models. Now need a colour scheme (thinking cops/2000AD Judges) and a few more games....

Rumour has it that your 'sneaky terrorist types' were in actual fact a rival corporation. A clear case of blue on blue according to the newswires...

Not sure if you've uploaded a pic, but it is only coming through as a little black square.

Alien Dave, does your computer show the picture of my 'true' enforcers sponsored by Co-Op? I just want to make sure they are only covert on imposter enforcer systems.

Looking forward to seeing the Sedition Wars models - if I hadn't already bought DZ, I would have used them myself. I may well look to adding them as special forces for Warzone Bauhaus instead. I'll certainly be adding the zombie alien things from SW to the Plague force of DZ. In the meantime Sgt Studebaker and his Enforcers of Awesome will be practicing their aim on dirty civilian terrorists and imitators

An admission of guilt in execution of war crimes. *stumbles off to the BBC to submit story*...
