    Battle Amongst the Clouds Turn 5

    Watching malachi, camelbeagle doesn’t see Baz shoot the gap between the clouds and feels his Dolphin shudder as rounds thunk into it.
    Baz pulls his trigger not knowing that zenlizard is centimeters off his tail!

    Final postion will be done again as I fu*ked up. Hold off on making a move. Zenlizard is not in a cloud.

    Ok, turn 8 has been corrected. I do not take full responsibility! Someone added way too much information in the plot and subliminally gave me the erroneous move plot I did.

    It is safe to plot turn 9 now.
