“We’re going down!”

“No poo poo,” Gerber Vost spat at the panicking technician. With the failure of a helium seal mid-jump, they were all lucky to be alive—but even survival in the face of near-certain annihilation wasn’t enough to make Gerber Vost a pleasant man to be around. With a scowl, he scampered up his Panther’s leg. If nothing else, he could jump his Panther clear at the last minute and survive the little Leopard-class Dropship’s final moments.

He was not surprised to see Pesht and Seagroves appeared to have the same idea. That left Goodall and Brank’s Locusts a write-off; but Vost hadn’t paid for any of them. He frowned at the utilitarian green of Holly Goodall’s Locust. It never paid to bring a woman along. Holly was a good ‘Mechwarrior, but Vost’s Draconian sensibilities would never let him admit it. If anything, this disaster was surely her fault.

“Vost!” a voice carried through the Leopard’s tiny drop bay. “What the hell are you doing?”

He turned, flipping the bird at his employer. Sho-sa Yubari Takuda and his DEST commandos were doomed, yes—but that wouldn’t stop Vost from doing the right thing: looking out for his own rear end. His Panther took a step forward, wrenching itself free of its moorings—and slammed a fist into the bay doors. Designed to carry four ‘Mechs, only the fact that the Locusts took up barely any space had allowed them to fit in the mission’s required five. Well, the mission was a total loss now. Scout a Clan-held world? Sure, if the pay was high enough. Die in a dropship crash? No.

The Leopard’s massive door failed with a sudden shriek, flowing air ripping the massive slab of steel away like a kite in a hurricane. The Leopard slewed hard to the right, nearly throwing Vost’s Panther into Pesht’s still-immobile Javelin. The sudden spin cut the out-of-control Dropship’s airspeed drastically; but Vost raged as the spin trapped him in the giant flying coffin.

With a jarring impact, the Leopard pancaked into the surface of a massive lake. Skipping like a stone, it bled momentum rapidly. When it hit the shore, the impact drove Vost’s Panther to its knees—he stood, wobbling, heart pounding with adrenaline-fueled terror, and took stock of his situation.

He panted quietly in his cockpit for a few minutes, then cut on his loudspeaker. “I just saved all our lives, Sho-sa,” Vost announced with a voice that was far more composed than he actually felt. “Exactly as planned.”



**********



Star Commander Inari’s Kit Fox ate the kilometers like a massive angry ostrich, it’s retrograde legs pounding massive divots in the soft loam. Her star spread out behind her, maintaining a tight formation.

“Star Commander,” her radio crackled. Mechwarrior Elfrede, one of her freeborn warriors continued, “we are here to rescue an aerodyne full of crashed merchants, Quiaff? Why the combat formation? Should we not spread out to facilitate our search?”

“The dropship’s origin was not identified before it crashed,” Inari explained quietly. This mission was her first—but it was still hers. She was hard pressed to explain why, but something did not feel right. “Aff, we have been expecting Jade Falcons—come to trade—but that does not mean these are Jade Falcons. It could be the Hell’s Horses, come to cause trouble.”

She grinned quietly, “We are close friends of their greatest enemy. A raid would not be unexpected, especially once they find out what has been traded.”

“I do not understand, Star Commander,” another warrior—Elias, she thought, his Jackrabbit’s ancient radio had always been problematic—asked in indeterminate tones. “What have we done to earn the Hell’s Horses’ ire?”

“We are here,” she replied with a chuckle. “That alone will rankle them to no end. In a few days, our secret alliance with the Goliath Scorpions will no longer be a secret. The IlKhan will be most displeased. I expect—” she paused, her ‘Mech’s sensors caught a blip for an instant. It vanished almost immediately, before she could identify it. She was young, yes, only twenty years old and fresh from her Sibko—and worse, assigned to a garrison cluster with freeborn warriors—but she was no fool.

“Enemy ‘Mechs detected,” she growled into her Cluster-wide comms. “They are shrouded by an ECM. Warriors of Clan Sea Fox, this world is under attack!”

From Clan Sea FOX, with Otter (what the Sea Foxes are, basically) Star? :p

It was a name too good not to use. I was tempted to use Amaterasu instead, but that's far too long for a Clan name. They like their names to be one syllable or less.



T.G. Xarbala posted:

They're also allied with the Ghost Bears and the Snow Ravens. Those three Clans essentially have the only power bloc in Clan space capable of outvoting the Widowmakers on a regular basis. This isn't surprising since the Widowmakers' closest allies are the Hell's Horses (who everyone hates) and the Steel Vipers (who are idiots).


VVV The Jackrabbit's role is as a long-range fire support 'Mech. A sniper, as it were.

You're up against a Panther, Javellin, two Locusts and something else, plus assorted infantry.

Dolash posted:

You'll most likely have some ERMeds (which are rape) and Machine Guns out the wazoo. If you get into range against some infantry let them have all the Machine Guns to make them dissappear instantly. You will have so much ammo that it's probably going to be worth taking every shot you get with them, although they will burn through all your ammo in less than 10 turns if you've only got a half-ton.

I'd keep the TMM up as high as possible until a hole or two appears or else chase the Locusts for a while to keep them running too. If the Jenner IIC has jump-jets (it should) you never use anything else unless you can get a better mod running or you need to make a hit. The IS Jenner is one of the best lights there is. The Clan Jenner is no different.

Mary Annette, XavierGenisi, no advice is forthcoming until PTN reveals your loadouts. I'd *guess* the Jackrabbit will be good at killing grunts, but that's not a guarantee.

The Piranha mounts two half-tons of machinegun ammo: one in the left torso, one in the right. That gives him sixteen full turns of shooting and twice the risk of exploding hilariously due to machinegun ammo being made out of miniaturized nuclear bombs.

'Nioclas' is Irish. 'Elfrede' is because every Clanner is a special snowflake who needs a unique name, since they're morons who forgot that last names help differentiate which 'Elfriede' you're talking about.

Outfoxed: Tactical Update 1



“Star Commander, I don’t see any enemy—”

“Watch your language, Nioclas,” Inari replied coldly. “They are out there. For an instant, my active probe revealed them to me. Advance slowly, and be ready to withdraw at a moment’s notice.”

Nioclas protested, “My sensors—”

“—Are being jammed by an ECM. Make no mistake, warriors, we are under attack.”

“Nioclas,” Mechwarrior Salah replied, “at best, we have detected a strange magnetic anomaly. At worst, there is a star of enemy Assault ‘Mechs waiting to crush us the moment we show ourselves. There is no harm in being cautious and no glory in suicide. Listen to the Star Commander. Her words carry the wisdom of ‘common sense’. This is rare, for a Trueborn. Do not discourage it.”

Inari sighed quietly—these Freeborn warriors did nothing but make jokes at her expense. She was a Trueborn warrior, but she suffered their humor in silence. At least morale was high enough that they could still make jokes.

Her sensors flickered again, her active probe flashing a warning. They were jamming.

“My sensors just went out,” Elias confirmed. “We are jammed.”

“As ComTap,” Inari replied. “ComLang. CalTars: SkirEn only. PrepRet if SitWar.”



Enemy Forces / Next Turn’s Movement:
Opforce ‘Mechs: Ran last turn. Assumed to be at a +2 modifier (except the Panther).

'Nioclas' is Irish. 'Elfrede' is because every Clanner is a special snowflake who needs a unique name, since they're morons who forgot that last names help differentiate which 'Elfriede' you're talking about.
To be fair, Nioclás is a gallicisation of Nicholas. It rings very false to the Irish ear. That doesn't mean it's not real, just that it falls directly into "special snowflake" territory.
