I was just going to make that joke. Edit: Ahh, the Society's bold strategy of running the Golems out of ammo on easy shots. Double Edit: As I roll another 12 on the scatter table for them. They're like an SRM carrier with better range that's also significantly harder to kill. Surprise short-range plasma cannons!

Aeaea 12 Varsha struggled to pry her PA(L) faceplate open with one hand. She’d coughed blood all over the inner surface, rendering the hud nearly useless, and her armored gauntlet’s fingers weren’t making matters better. Lacking a soft surface, they were serving only to make long crimson streaks on the inner panes. After a few moments she gave up and left the visor open, toggling the cockpit’s back-up HUD on. It wasn’t quite as responsive as the Pilot PA(L)’s, but it functioned. A wave of missiles smashed into the Coyote assault ‘Mech. She’d been dreading fighting that one before, but the machine collapsed in a controlled fashion—rolling straight onto its head in the process. It still struggled in place, the pilot was still alive, but they had to be hurting after a fall like that. She was beginning to regret sticking close to Captain Réka. She’d joined her CO’s brave charge without a thought expecting the rest of the Wolverines wouldn’t be far behind, but so far the only backup they’d gotten had been from the Coyotes, whom they couldn’t even speak with. Backpedaling, she buried her Nyx in a copse of trees, hiding from the primer gray newcomers and quietly praying her olive drab BattleMech would be too small a fry for the Coyote heavy lance to try to pot-shot. “C’mon,” she murmured under her breath. There was no point even trying to transmit, but she wouldn’t have in any case. “Where is everyone?”    Movement Phase Rampage II (Player) - Deactivates Blue Shield PFD!

quote:- Fires Medium Pulse Laser at Septicemia B-Z (3 base + 0 range + 2 movement + 4 enemy movement - 2 pulse laser = 7): rolled 8, miss! Since this has a very real chance of leaving the Septicemia B-Z dead, I think this is an important one to point out.

The last mech to the south is pretty well neutered. We should try to regroup this turn and make a concerted push. They're bunkered down in the woods pretty well, I don't think Sair and I can dislodge them alone.

Seems my move at least got me out of dodge and let me lay into the Cephalus pretty good. I think I will be running to 0820 to shoot the Cephalus in the back if the rest of you want to focus on the bigger hitters. edit: Oh yeah, and I updated our google doc.

You guys should probably take out the Septicemia Z quick-like. It's looking like it has pretty tatty armor on a lot of places and killing it accomplishes your second objective (and sets up Manei Domini versus Society fight which is good and cool).

God-damned dice won't let me kill that damned pop-tarting maniac! ... uh, sorry PTN, not you. That other pop-tarting maniac. I need a dice-cleansing, stat! All we need is moon-water, salt, and a cat's shadow. Okay, Parry, where should we head off to? There's a Ceph coming up behind you, and there's a Septic right in front of you. And the Septic Z and Osteon at your 11 o'clock. I can get a couple of large lasers (and maybe missiles) onto all of them.

Ok, I'm going to try this - I'm going to walk out to 1210 and aim at the Center Torso of the Septicemia Z with both plasma rifles and my AP Gauss. If even one of each of those hits - and I think I'm shooting automatic hits, subject to the location confirmation - I have a chance to damage or destroy it, maybe even if just Ground-Mobile HPG, which should let us call in the Legion. This'll also free up the lights to focus on the Osteon and its body-guard. I'll also take a lot of fire for it, but if they're shooting at me they're not shooting at everyone else. I think a limping Wolverine II for a mission objective is a good trade, and we still have the Dragoon II as a command 'mech, and it looks like AAAA is safe.

Savage Coyote's damaged leg actuator didn't make it into the unit sheet. Great round for both player sides. Edit: If you're moving out into the open, the Turkina Z would be an easier and more crucial target, plus the Dragoon is on the last Cephali.

Heavy 'Mech list is up. Hopefully no one will be disappointed to see the Sunfire and Roughneck again and there're some other (hopefully welcome) surprises. There's also a notable absence on the 75 ton list: the Shiro. I'm working on getting armor stats for it, but I had to skip it for the time being.

My orders are in: Running to 0821 and firing at the Cephalus. I over-fired last turn and thus overheated a bit...I am slow and get -1 to fire this round, so I will be happy if I land one shot.

I got sick of rolling a million missiles so I'm doing the OpForce ATM damage correctly. Players will still get the better crit-seeking spreads since I hosed it up at the outset. Edit: Improved Inferno Warheads are still bastards though. PoptartsNinja fucked around with this message at 20:26 on Mar 7, 2018 |

Aeaea 13 “Enemy jamming unit is down, it’s—impossible. It’s some sort of ‘Mech-carried HPG.” The light lance leader broadcast. “Hyperspace shouldn’t interact with real space that way!” The pressure weighing down on Serena’s temples subsided at once as suddenly the Wolverine comm. channels were filled with irritated muttering. She immediately queried the orbiting reserves. It took her several moments to realize the unusual pressure she felt on her cheeks was the involuntary grimace that data had induced. A half-dozen company-sized units that weren’t actively engaged fighting the Coyotes had gone suddenly silent, and twice the Wolverines had moved to engage the Coyotes on Circe only to discover they were already under attack by their own second line troops. “This is bedlam,” her fingers flew over a secondary keyboard, the battle momentarily forgotten. Her ‘Mech moved almost of its own accord, obeying the whims her subconscious mind relayed to it through her cybernetics. She barely even noticed when she cut down the last of the enemy scouts with her pulse lasers. The Wolverine command structure was riddled with holes. The battles’ casualties with the Coyotes seemed normal enough on the surface, but the majority of the real losses were company commanders or higher. They’d have to fire up the HPG to see if the other assault forces were having the same trouble, but— “We’ve really kicked a hornet’s nest down here. Command override: deploy the Legion to grid five-four-five to secure the Primary Asset. We need to power the SHPG and send a situation report to President Amaris.

Well, with the other Sept placed where it is, those mechs are going to be shooting us at short range with ATMs and LPLs pretty much no matter what as long as we're in LOS. I say we close in to point-blank range and make a kick circle. I can get my Gurkha in behind the bodyguard Sept, maybe I can stick my knife in his open CT(r)

Good turn, the end is in sight! Coyote secondary will happen this next turn, but it's still going to be rough going taking down the remaining society mechs. They're all still relatively healthy and will probably stand up until all the lights get in range to do murderous things to their backsides. iATM infernos and plasmas remain loving bonkers crazy, too. Painedforever, I think you get a lot better value out of dropping those ERLL and just using all your other weapons at this point fwiw. You get pulses for -2 and Artemis V LRMs for -1 to hit so your shots are a lot better, and you can fire all 6 of your non ERLL weapons without worrying about heat.
