If nothing else, it proves the Clans were wise to come up with that fireproof armor their Elementals are clad in. They're all orphans, afterall, and the Society would know this. This is going to be an interesting turn.

Needing orders for the Black Watch. chktshadeclaw, is everything ok? If you're not sure what to do I really suggest taking the break in the fighting to try to get to 0620 or 1418 where you'll be much better able to leverage your armor Edit: I may have underestimated the Cephalus.

Aeaea 9 “We will drive them into the woods to slow them down. Be ready.” The surviving Clan commander’s voice was tinny and so distorted Marduk couldn’t even determine the speaker’s gender. The Rampage’s own communication system was especially robust, able to punch through most ECM-based jamming with ease. He turned the dials up to maximum and sent a simple, “Acknowledged” even as the Coyote forces turned to interpose themselves between the interloping scout ‘Mechs and the rest of the combatants. The Coyotes were still organized in spite of the jamming, which spoke either of their skill, or that they were very good at following the only voice on their unit’s commnet. Marduk tried to draw a bead on one of the scouts, but the hazy, all-too-familiar shimmer of a Chameleon system threw off his targeting computer. He fired anyway, in an effort to keep the little light ‘Mech honest. He missed clean, but a combined attack from the enemy heavy star knocked the little ‘Mech off its feet while a trio of heavy ‘Mechs brought down its partner. Marduk suppressed an involuntary shudder. It had taken the better part of a Clan heavy ‘mech star to take down a single light ‘Mech. “So much for our armor advantage,” Harendra’s voice was nearly indistinguishable from the Clan commander’s. “The enemy’s pilots are not very good,” the Clan leader warbled. “Perhaps we can exploit that.” “Try to knock them off their feet,” Marduk agreed. “But keep an eye out. They’re not going to take over the Homeworlds with only a few scout—” A fireball erupted from the upper dome of the Roseau as an Arrow IV artillery missile smashed into it. The upper armor plating buckled around the impact site, but held firm. It’d take more than a single missile to knock a DropShip out of commission. A second missile slammed into the Coyote’s surviving assault ‘Mech, nearly knocking the pilot off his feet. “That was a low arc,” Marduk roared, “the shooter’s close!

Both secondary objectives are to the North. Decisions are easier when there's only one choice. I run to 1216 and unload on the Septicemia D-Z (stupid name). The four 'Mechs closest to the dropship? Watch our backs. Manny, there's a crunchy snack behind you, you could alpha him and then kick him. I dunno, I haven't run the numbers.

Strobe posted:The Turkina Z is without exaggeration the single most dangerous mech in the history of BattleTech. I recommend killing it before it gets more than one turn. This is the absolute, gospel truth. If there is a Cephalus somewhere near you, you are in close range thanks to the Nova CEWS. HE ATM ammo deals 3 per missile, 36 per launcher. iATMs are streaks: If they hit, they all hit. It has four launchers. That thing has the potential to obliterate most assault mechs from 9 hexes away. and the midrange missiles are almost as bad from 15. The Septicaemias have very, very strong weapons loadouts as well: Taking out the HPG jammer is almost as important.

AAAAA! Real Muenster posted:I was thinking of suggesting that the lights take turns getting max move mod getting behind the Mission Objective, but going anywhere near that gaggle of missileboats is probably suicide. Nova CEWS can only be jammed by another unit with Nova CEWS, unfortunately. It functions as an Active Probe and ECM, but with only a 3 hex range. It can create 3 unit networks that work just like C3i. They can shift around at will (at end of turn), and it also keeps working even if the pilot in a mech is unconscious. I thiiiink your Angel ECM should still block the streak effect of iATM launchers, which means that they can still shoot you, but that they'll have to roll on the cluster table instead of automatically having every missile hit.

Aside from the actual two objectives on the field, the 'Mech lobbing Arrow-IVs is in 2326 and has relatively quite light armor vs it's throw weight in Arrow missiles. Too bad it can't be shanked in the back this turn. The Septicemia Z can be shot in the back from 1601 and 1701 by both the northern Nyx and Gurkha, which could yield really fast reinforcements. They can both move 10 hexes to get there so should be relatively safe, even though almost all the Society mechs have hyper extending actuators to let them shoot an arm backwards. e: I'm crazy jealous not being in this mission right now lol. How do the players secure hex 1909? Drop off elementals there? Or just have no enemy units within X hexes while a friendly unit is close?

So do I just have to spend a turn in one of the specified hexes to complete the secondary? If so, then I'll probably be making as directly for it as I can. Hopefully the Coyotes can eliminate the enemies on the right quickly and be ready to die gloriously smashing into the rest of the enemies so that the Wolverines can clean up down south. Y'all probably want to kill that Arrow IV boat before it wrecks up the Dropship. Yeah?

Night10194 posted:So, the Society's thing is sensor fuckery and guided missiles? Stompy-robits wise. The two 3070-ish new baddie factions are interesting in that they simultaneously have significant similarities-both rely heavily on high-tech combined arms warfare-and some huge differences. The Manei Domini basically make up for using largely advanced but proven IS technology by being absolutely, ridiculously hardcore pilots to a T. Every one of their pilots is a 2/3 and will probably be running pain shunt/dermal armor so they become immune to pilot hits and will keep fighting until they die. The Society make up for being absolutely trash at piloting by having the most broken weapons and equipment in the game like the Nova and the iATM and often shoving their pilots and soldiers full of experimental combat drugs and weird glowing green mutagens. So the Society's thing is more that they use tough, extremely specialized robots (notice how one of the variants of their light omni has no weapons at all) with very powerful weapons and maximum use of expensive tech and Clantech, in unClanlike teams, to make up for a crippling pilot skill deficit, while the Manei Domini's thing is that they use solid design principles, teamwork, and superhuman pilots to make up for a significant technological deficit.
