RE: [Sandbox] The lone apple tree.
Mrrshan tank driver regains consciousness. He checks tank equipment: all is offline. No power as well. He is no surpised when he finds his fellow comrade is also dead. Muffled sounds of distant gunfire could be heared through open hatch. Driver takes his own portable radio, inserts poer cell and establishes connection.
- This is private Mukirr, land recon mission to sector 13-144... His own voice sounds unfamiliar to him.
- Vehicle is immobilized, lieutenant Kirrsh is dead. We ran into enemy fireteam. I request an artillery strike on my position. Sending coordinates now.
After a short while after at Mrrshan base some self-propelled howitzers started fire barrage:

First shell lands and violently explodes, throwing off dirt, grass and body parts alike, two other are inbound.

The mobile worker hovers through a narrow passage in the cavern and spots three flying objects coming towards it. It freaks out a little.
Meanwhile, the egg's roots continue to grow under the incubator worker.

The dropship pilot, unable to see due to the constant bullets being shot at the cockpit, shuts off the boosters for a second. The lower gun crashes into the headless robot as the dropship semi-lands onto it. Firing shots at the two targets he can see, the pilot opens the door releasing the troops.
Meanwhile, underground, the drones spot a large flying insectoid creature. The one in the back relays escape is impossible due to the exit having been sealed via cave-in. Their only hope is to charge at it to scare it off.

The scouting worker backs up a little and flares it's wings and tail, drooling florescent goop at the mandibles, in an attempt to ward off the strange metal intruders.
Back at the egg, the incubator drone has been crushed into the ground by what appears to be vines. Some of the roots have swollen below ground into large gland-like pockets.

The dropship flys upwards, and begins to leave. Putting the main engine to full, the flying robot is accidentally caught in the blast.
One of the blind robot's bullets manages to hit the officer, who angrily walks forward and blasts it at point blank. One soldier calls for air support, while another blasts the dying robot next to the hill.
Underground, the drones fire their small pistols at the creature blocking their path.

While the low-caliber bullets aren't able to fully penetrate the worker's hard carapace, some find their way in-between the hard bits, punching a hole in it's side and blowing a wing off. The worker hacks a glob of goop at the attackers, covering and melting one, while searing another.
The wounded worker retreats back to the egg, which has sprouted a few more vines that are actively swaying about. Roots are also still growing, but slower than before.

Dropship leaves. Mrrshan commander overlooks the area. He can not identify the boxy robot, it's design is clearly unusual for Kolozarian robotic units. It's behaviour is also intriguing, all reports are stating that Kolozarian AI-controlled units, while being autonomous, are engaging all non-friendly targets on sight. Not being sure, what is it, a trap or possible contact with previously unknown force, commander slowly raises his rifle as an invitation for parley. His subordinate, however, continues to aim at the robot. Heavy trooper, who landed on soft ground above collapsed tunnel is preparing to climb the cliff, while tank driver leaps over huge hole in the ground. An UAV is circling high in the skies, transmitting realtime images of the area to the HQ.
