Pikmin 1st Recon’s Raid on Atrum Abyss
Atrumus Rex stood outside of the Barracks, waiting for the anticipated attack. There he had been waiting for days, knowing that Colonel Braxton would initiate his attack very soon. His troops were dispersed and ready. Resource storage was covered well. Surely today would be a victory.
Swooping in overhead came the aerial attack on his base. The Jaguar pelted the wall of the Resource Storage with explosives, smashing open the wall. The helicopter dropped down to drop off the reds, who swarmed into the resource storage. 50 went in, and 50 stood guard.
One of the red pikmin caught sight of some shiny stainless steel. One of his comrades grabbed him and told him swiftly: “Stick to the plans.” The red pikmin charged toward the measley supply of 46 petals, mowing down the few dwarf snow bulborbs they encountered with their SMGs.
Outside of the storage, the 50 pikmin standing guard, as well as the copter, were ambushed by Dwarf Lacitra, but were able to hold them off rather well with SMGs. As the nearby Polars approached, however, things began to look more difficult. The Jaguar did its best to hold them off, but it had its own problems to deal with. Dwarf Crystal Bulborbs and Spiny Lacitra were trying to shoot it out of the sky. The forces of Atrum Abyss that had been dispersed throughout the base rapidly mobilized toward the resource storage.
It was at this moment that the Green Pikmin swooped in. Using their shock sticks, they managed to take pressure off of the Red Pikmin. Those at the storage were finishing up and preparing to take off. Right at that moment, a Polar Lacitra reached the copter and forced its pilot to dodge quickly. A few red pikmin jumped into position and quickly terminated it with their SMGs. Sirviats used their arms to hurl snow at the pikmin, both in the air and on the ground. The last few pikmin hopped in the copter and Pikmin 1st Recon quickly evacuated the area. The mission had been a success, but the cost had been great.
Casualties:
Pikmin 1st Recon:
30 Red Pikmin
50 Green Pikmin
Jaguar Damaged: 10 days to repair
Atrum Abyss:
10 Dwarf Snow Bulborbs
40 Dwarf Polar Lacitra
3 Polar Lacitra
Resource Storage Damaged: 5 days to repair
Loot:
Pikmin 1st Recon:
46 Petals
2 Requisition (80 troops again, plus 5 days of damage to a building. I guessed around 2.)
Atrum Abyss
1 Requisition (80 Troops + 10 days of damage is roughly 2 Requisition, then halved for defense.)
Short battle; there wasn’t much happening. Perhaps I could’ve lengthened it to two updates, but I think this works. I’m not entirely sure on Requisition numbers, so those might need adjusting.
