The downed cyborg clicked and buzzed his jaw in apparent irritation. Help was on the way, but being stuck in one place was tactically unsound.

tacNet:
>>> Whoops! Silly me - I must have gotten a little too certain of myself. I you would be so kind as to do me the honors, HAMMERER-08 old friend?

tacNet:
>>> Much obliged, Ham-whams! Let me just get this P11-Fox problem sorted out!

TELETHON-02 took off towards one of the foxes, crossing paths with JUNKYARD-03.

tacNet; to JUNKYARD-03:
>>> Ah, perfect timing! Try and stay shielded by that car, won't you?

> 1) Move (Range 16): M53 >> [E2, N5, E2, N6, W1] >> B56.

"Nothing personal, Fox," Telethon uttered.

> 2) TELETHON-02 attacks P11-Fox-C55 with Driver, knocking it 8 squares South, to K55! [2d6 damage]
>> 2.1) Bulwark Field+! Optic Cluster+! TELETHON-02 makes a double-damage melee attack against P11-Fox when it enters D55! [2x(2d6) damage]
>> 2.2) JUNKYARD-03's Nanite Smear+! JUNKYARD-03 makes melee attacks against P11-Fox when it enters G55, I55, J55, and K55! [(2d6)+(2d6)+(2d6)+(2d6) damage]
>>> TOTAL DAMAGE: [10d6 + 2*(2d6)] damage to P11-Fox via Driver-Push & Nanite Smear+!
