To add some fun to the defense system, we also blew bubbles at intruders with a misting system. This both made them wet, so the first shocks should be closer to 8000 volts, and because it contained some soap, it made the containers really slippery. Our vampires manning the tops of the containers had super-resistant and supergrippy boots & gloves so they could clamber around on the container tops in spite of these defenses.

The assault of Boardwalk — was of course at night. This was a horrible time to assault us vampires, but apparently no one was willing to explain that to the assault team. So in the cover of darkness, the assault teams ran at the containers with breaching ladders. They probably had overwatch on the Sports Seller, but those snipers were hidden well enough we couldn’t see them with eyes or cameras. At least they were not shooting at us.

The ladders went up, over the wires, and stopped abruptly. We had made it so cow bell noises played whenever the energizers recharged the wires, and there was now a herd of cattle surrounding us. Admittedly, we hadn’t posted any signs warning about the electric fence, but they could have done a bit more recon before assaulting it with aluminum ladders.

Two teams had luckily used pairs of fiberglass ladders, and they scampered up on top of their containers athletically. Our soapmisters had been running for an hour, but now the fog machines kicked in too. The goal of the mist was to obscure the metal plates functioning as blinds protecting our vampires.
