The Defense of Iveny House
The T820 "aerodroids", also known as "Hornets" used elliptical air combat techniques for dog fights. They could match the tactics of any adversary. The T820s featured force shields and plasma cannons. On paper, Iveny House forces were equal to "Gunslingers"; but in the field, they had a fatal flaw. Once the T820's shield power dropped below 20%, a single plasma blast could turn them into scrap metal.
The estate's first line of defense were four smart bipedal heavy artillery stations. Their lethally accurate swivel chest tactical lasers, and high frequency sonic cannons were capable of devastating anything within 3000 meters. Unfortunately, because they were defensive weapons their shield technology could not maintain integrity, and simultaneously allow weapons fire. To compensate the drones were programmed with attack algorithms that randomly altered shields configurations to permit coordinated weapons fire. However, with the A647's adaptive tactical electronics they could match random shield sequencing to adjust weapons to fire when the droids were most vulnerable. In short order, two A647-B2s took out all four artillery stations leaving the entire defense burden on highly maneuverable lightly armored smart droids. The "Green Hornet" air combat drones were the biggest obstacle preventing A647's from securing the estate. The "Hornets" took on the "Gunslingers" with classified weapons of their own that could confuse the A647's deadly targeting sensors giving the "Hornets" a chance to use their experimental phased supercharged plasma guns. The combination of highly maneuverable air and ground drones equipped with firing signatures comparable to their adversaries destroyed two out of three "Gunslingers". Ultimately, the remaining A647 used its superior adaptive air combat artificial intelligence technology to disable or destroy the "Hornets". Once inside the estate, the sole "Gunslinger" proceeded to live up to its name by methodically devastating the house and everything in it.
