The group chases after the tank until they get near the building. A battle with the Duergar troops ensues. Bluey gets shot down by a missle from the tank. Herman also takes a missile hit but manages to pick up bluey in mid air before he falls. Hermans force field (?) is destroyed. Caldors force field took some laser blasts but remained intact.
One howitzer is taken out by Caldor, two remain in action. Drago charges the rift and takes heavy damage from the tank on the other side, his magic armor drops dangerously low.
Bes cackles from the top of the tank "I sent the plague of NXLA to this planet to destroy the last royal kreeghor in the tet line. My employer will be very pleased to hear I have taken as zombies the last male and his entourage." With that bes opens a second pinhole rift to africa and sends out 10 tendrils at the characters... Herman and Caldor fail their saves after many close calls, drago tries in vain to destroy the tendrils with fire. As Herman and Caldor are slowly soulsucked into the rift by NXLA's tendrils...
Drago and Bluey team up pool PPE and cast CLOSE RIFT. This cuts off the soul supply just before caldor and herman are completely drained. (house rule: the nxla tendril soul suck and xombification effect takes a full melee round to take place and can be stopped through player action).
Cleaning up the group finishes dispatching the remaining duergar, some of which were zombified.
Drained of magic energy and soul, the battered party hunkers down near the ruins the Duergar were using as a base...
The group goes inside and finds a few harvestors and 4 men chained up along with a child and a woman in cages with weird implants. During the battle Drago hits an agony rune and is hurt by it.
After the harvesters were destroyed or fled, The 4 men are set free and run off. Bluey's Z worm uses psi surgery to investigate the impants on the girl and the child, finally setting them free as well and removing the mysterious implants. Both are too weak to stand after the ordeal.
Sparticus and Bluey took mustard gas damage from a trap outside the base. Both bioregenerated to protect their lungs from permanent damage.

There is a solar eclipse which effects magic in Huntsville... Drago and Bluey are empowered. Drago uses the power to show others the ritual of create steel mummy. Drago creates mummy pigs from the victims of missle blasted pig remains.
The group gets the pings of enemy radar scans... and then incoming missles.
About 350 pigs remain after missle blasts from an unknown assailent attacked the party.
Hughbot figures out the ritual by watching drago and also manages to create a steel mummy pig from the ambient ppe magic energies.
Caldor's symbiot continues to crave drago after tasting dragon blood. Caldor can almost detect drago with his eyes closed...
After creating the pigs the pigs are left to guard the huntsvill oil refinery base of the army of thunder.
the group rushes to camp Beta... towards the direction the missles came from.
Drago cast invincible armor on everyone and miraculously deflect as well, the eclipses power bending the laws of magic.. (or gems forgetting them ;)
On the way bluey is hit by a medium range missle, his jetbike slagged only his invincible armor protects him from death.
Caldor runs across the ground and hits a few landmines, charging up..
Skimmers and flying quickly apear, shooting weak energy rays and a few mini missles during strafing runs...
Finally reaching the camp they see a huge ruin, there is a tower with 3 heavy guns and duegar manning them. There is also a Naruni Juggernaught hovertank with a duegar sitting in the turret top protected by the forcefield.
The head duegar casts call lightning at caldor, it bounces off caldors force field.
Others get hit by howitzer blasts and much of the magical protections cast upon the group are disapated from the blasts by the start of melee round #2...
The Tank has drive quickly through a rift which appears behind the buildings. The building defenders take aim and you hear the faint sound of evil laughter from the other side of the rift...

Qsuzy sends a radio message "rumored
2 concentration camps full of slaves to be harvested have been set up.
around GAW HQ... the original inhabitants have been driven out and
fight a secret war against their CS and now demonic
oppressors...Huntsville clans all but whiped out, Guntersville has sworn
blood vengeance but their tech is too poor to do much but slow them
down...if we could contact some guntersville boys we might have a chance
at some backup... " after successful comp op+radio basic she sends coordinates to the camps...
After some negotiating with QSUZY they decide to go to alpha first. She promises a CS supply crate drop if they can go after beta.
Sparticus gives Jimmy & John his 2 rescued men at the base 1 platnum bar worth 100k.
The big jet is left in the airport outside of town. The small jet is infront of the base.
Bluey, Drago & Caldor head west towards camp alpha.. Everyone else stays in the Hunstville base.
Caldor's parasite biowizard implant gets hungry, drago feeds it some dragons blood.
On the way west the group sees a heard of 112 Chimeras, they avoid them.
Sneaking to the base there is a small firefight before the Duergar guards are dispacted. The base has 4 small tents and 4 medium tents as well as 1 building. After the guards are dispatched the people kept in the camp all run off. It looked like mostly huntsville and guntersville folk.
Digging around the players also find a huge cache of gold, 40mil 2500lbs worth which they pack onto their vehicles (?) and start heading back east...
