QM: alright anons, I have decided this battle is too difficult to describe without extensive use of visual aids. So I have gotten out my virtual tabletop software that I experimented with during my previous DUNGEONEER quest, and here is the battlemap situation... (see posts below)
Note to new players - remember there is a divination rite / spell that you have, Tree Of Thoughts / The Hollow Tree / Through A Red Forest. If you nominate and sacrifice an item in your possession, which will be permanently lost, you can see the hidden probability of EVERY ROLL, every random table outcome during a battle / decision beforehand! See the rules here
>>5684557>>5694541Amazingly, the probabilities this time were (roll under)
85% hit main hull
65% hit traction / treads
35% hit ventilation / air inflow
15% hit piloting compartment / observation deck
So this time, somehow your rolls both succeeded! Two dead-on direct hits from your artillery barrage!
What occurs is the massive machine juggernaut begins smoking and burning profusely, but it does not stop - the speed of its grinding crushing advance slows to the strained and fatigued pace of an oxen crawl. You can now distinctly discern the shape and massive hulking form of it, as it is no longer shrouded by the blizzard / sandstorm whirlwind wall of dust that previously obscured its advance.
You can also see that the propeller intake entrance has been blasted apart, providing a clear breaching / assault entrance.
