Set-up – We lose barely 9-8. I set up my company. They set up their Awesome first nearish me. The rest far away.
Turn 1 – We win init 7-6, also barely. They first move their Urbie. I cannot base it with my Atlas it’s 6 away. I charge 5 for stuff where possible. Our CRD moves 4 and bases their Cataphract. Our Spider bases it’s flank. Our Atlas moves 4 and bases their Hunch, our Banshee too. Their Awesome bases my CRD’s flank. Our Wolverine bases their Cataphract. They move their Spider last, not great for a leg chance. It jumps behind a hill to hide. Our PXH bases their Awesome’s flank. Weapons fire!!! I want to fire at their BM, let’s see if we can answer it, but it’s behind a hill, so their Awesome is targeted instead. Our Catapult’s ML hit the CT and hit the engine and gyro once each. Then our Grasshopper finishes the gyro with another hit with a ML too. Gyro down. No pieces though. Melee!!! We each kicked the Hunchback but in different legs. Then our Wolverine destroys the LL on their Cataphract!!! Turn 2 – We keep init and win it 10-6, not that close. Our Banshee and TDR base their Urbie. Their Hunchback doesn’t rise. Our BM, Hopper and Stalker base their Marauder. Their BM stays in the same space, I based it for a head punt with our Wolverine. Their Spider bases my Atlas’s flank, and all I have left is my Spider and PXH and cannot get the PXH to it. I base their UrbanMech with the PXH. Our Spider to their BM’s flank. I fire at their BM if I can see it. Our Stalker and BM are in their Warhammer’s rear arc and cannot see it. Also our Awesome can only see their Wasp and fires on it. Their Urbie’s AC20 hit and destroyed our Atlas’s RA. Our Awesome PPC hit the ammo in their Wasp’s RT – dead mech!!! Our Stalker SRM hit the gyro once and engine three times on their Warhammer -shut down. It also destroyed its back LT, LA on the ground. Their Trebuchet hit our Atlas’s LT and destroyed too, LA on the ground. Our Spider hit the SRM ammo in their BattleMaster’s LT, boom, dead mech!!! Ouchie! Melee? Our Banshee legs their Urbie’s LL. Our TDR it's RL. Our Stalker the RL of their MAD destroyed. Our PXH hit the RT of their Urbie and it ammo explodes – dead mech!!! They eject and surrender and we take them out. Salvage: BattleMaster – H, LL, LA, RT, RL, RA UrbanMech 60L – RA, LA, LT, H Wasp - 1L RA, RL, H, LL, LT, LA Awesome – 2 gyro, 1 engine hit; see below. Cataphract 1X – missing LL; see below Warhammer 6L – missing LT, 3 engine, 2 gyro hit; see below Marauder 3L – missing RL; current value - 5,967,125 – to fix – 500k. I add the three mech pieces.

On the 4th try. Fixed. Do I have an LT for it? Got it, added!!! The MAD 3L RL? Nope, cash spent. War chest is 164,115,206. Us: Atlas – missing RA, LT: see below I have the two pieces and pull them out. Battle Loss – 1.5 mill – we didn’t spend since we had the spares. |

We get them all smashed up good, and destroy them both and all fighters too. We also capture their Invader since it hasn’t finished charging yet. Can I salvage their Leopard CV or Avenger? I toss a 5 and 8 – nope. Battle Loss – We took 5 mill in damage and lost 4 fighters. 2 we can salvage for 1.25 mill and then lost 2 for 10,702,641 and then can bring in three of theirs for 2.1 mill.

Warhammer 6L Clint Dervish Vulcan 2T Wolverine 6R- yay Commando Locust 1E!!! Wasp 1W Remember Pirates are all random save their leader is a veteran. They are in the center and us the north of the Grasslands 3 map. I want that Locust, Wolverine, and TBolt. I wished that was MY Banshee you know? This is their Wasp 1W variant with 20 tons, 10 heat sinks, 6/9/6 movement, and then has for armor 2 tons one ton too light for weapons it’s got SIX Small Lasers - ouch if you are based to the good stuff. Pic? Sure thing!!!  There you go!!! |
Set-up – We lose 8-12. Ouch. They set up in the middle and nearish us in woods. Their Banshee is heavy woods.
Turn 1 – We get revenge and win init 8-6, closer but we win. They move their TDR first, 5 from my Charger, based! I charge most 5. Their Warhammer bases it’s flank, our Grasshopper bases it back and our PXh in woods next to it too. Our Jenner bases their Locust. I fire at their Banshee which backed up out of the woods. Some cannot see it and fire at their Warhammer. We lightly dust their Banshee and drop their Warhammer, no parts off. Melee? Our Grasshopper kills their Warhammer after destroying its CT with the leg. Nothing else gone. Turn 2 – We keep init 12-8. A reverse of our loss earlier. Their Wolverine moves 1st, I base it with my Charger and Atlas moving 4. Their Banshee moves and doesn’t base us. Our CRD and Griffin base their Commando. Our PXH and Hopper base their Clint. Our Jenner too moving last. I fire again at their Banshee. Our Crusader destroys it’s LA. It falls, and their pilot blacks out. Melee!!! We didn’t leg their Wolverine sadly we split the attacks on each leg. Our PXH legs their Clint’s LL!!! Our CRD their Commando’s RL!!! They eject from the Clint and Commando and then surrender since we have their ruler and then no ways out with their Invader ours too. We capture their Union. Salvage: Warhammer 6L – H, RL, LL, RA, LA, LT, RT Banshee 3E – missing LA - pilot blacked out; see below! Clint – missing LL; current value - 3,222,380 – to fix 250k Commando – missing RL; current value - 1,741,250 to fix – 150k I add the Warhammer parts. Do I have a Banshee LA?

Union DropShip – Mech carrier DropShip for 12 mechs and then 2 fighters, and captured from Pirates from LC deal, renamed the “Lapis Lazuli Lion”. |
Nov 18, 3030 – We finish relaxing, salvaging, and repairing and found 1.8 mill in cash.
We blow up their base but they surrendered if you’ll recall Nov 22 – We arrive at their next target’s Nadir JumpPoint and unfurl our battle load!!! We found here at the JumpPoint Steiner intel is here, and correct, they are here with an Invader, Avenger and Leopard CV and then an empty ring for their supposedly Union. We smash both units and all 6 fighters. Can I salvage either? I toss a 5 and 6 so nope! Battle Loss – We ate 8 mill in damage, and then lost 4 fighters – 2 can be salvaged for 1.5 mill and then two lost for 12,312,000. We can salvage 3 of theirs for 2.6 mill. We salvaged here at the JumpPoint 7 mill. Nov 27, 3030 - We arrive at the 2nd Pirate holding, scout it all up and down the block and then find – Banshee 3M - CO, veteran Stalker – XO Archer - love it! Dragon Quickdraw Cicada Hatchetman Phoenix Hawk!! Whitworth Locust 1M Panther Wasp 1L Yay for that Stalker sorta, Archer, PXH and that’s it. They are random ability, just the veteran ruler. They are in the middle and us the bottom. |
Set-Up – We lose a low scoring 4-3. I set up the front rank. Their Stalker is near-ish us, 5 away. I set up my Atlas there. Nothing else though.
Turn 1 – We do win init though – 8-7 also by one. They first move their Banshee, my Orion moves 6 to base it. Their Panther moves 2nd and then jumps in front of their Stalker, based with my Atlas at 4. Their Hatchetman bases my Atlas’s flank, our Longbow and Charger base it but move 3. Our Griffin bases their Panther too. Our TDR bases their Banshee, and our CDR their Hatchetman. Our Jenner bases their Locust. Our PXh bases their Whitworth. I fire at their Banshee. It’s +1 and short range. Our Warhammer destroys its LT, LA on the ground. Our Grasshopper’s LL destroys the CT – dead mech. Melee? Our Atlas legs their LL on their Panther!!! The LL on the Hatchetman also destroyed by our Crusader. Turn 2 – We keep init another tight one 7-5. Their Hatchetman tries to stand and falls and blacks out. Their Panther rises though. Their Stalker moves last and we cannot base it other than the Warhammer moving last and their Archer at the edge cannot be gotten to either. I fire at their Stalker instead, likely blowing it up. I fire our Longbow missiles and Warhammer PPCs at their Wasp. It survives, but their Stalker doesn’t. Our Warhammer hit the ammo in the RT – dead mech! We also hit the ammo in the other side too. They drop our Atlas. No melee, we aren’t near them. We took out both Assaults and then their 2 lighter closing units with the Panther and Hatchetman – they eject and then flee to their Union. Since their Invader fled, there is a chance they can meet back later so they fly up and then to other spaces on the planet. We destroy it in space. Our Achilles is faster. They cannot outrun it. Can we salvage it? I toss a 4 nope. We also took out 2 escorts fighters. Battle Loss – We take another 2.5 mill and then took out their two fighters and can salvage one for 750k. We gather here from 8 mechs and a DropShip and 2 fighters – 8 mill. Salvage: Banshee 3M – H, RT, RL, RA, LA, LL Stalker – RA; LA, LL, RL, H Panther missing LL; current value - 2,235,710 – to fix 250k Hatchetman missing LL; current value - 5,130,640 – to fix 500k I add the two Assault mech parts. Money spent for them. Added!!! War chest is 166,169,379 |
Nov 30, 3030 – We spend a few days fixing, repairing, and salvaging their stuff for 3.3 mill (I tossed an 11). We blow up their HQ.
Dec 05 – We arrive at the Nadir JumpPoint of a pair of Merchants here and then they have two open DropRings and then a Leopard CV and Avenger. We smash them good and hard and their 6 fighters too. They were savaged. Can we salvage them? I toss a 6 and 2. Nope-sy. Battle Loss – We eat 4 mill damage. We lost 4 fighters, 2 can be brought back for 1.25 mill and then 2 lost for 10,541,853. We can salvage 4 of theirs for 2.6 mill. We find here at the JumpPoint 11 mill. Dec 09 – We arrive at their planet – no major losses or anything, no one here to meet us. We scout and land and then scout them up. We scout up the planet and find their base with a Gazelle, Leopard, and then 12 vees and 4 mechs. As we land and head there, four Warrior VTOLs and 2 fighters from the Leopard hit us. Our fighters engage. Here are the 3rd and Final Pirate Defenders!!! Mech: Victor 9B – veteran, CO Archer – yay!!! Centurion Firestarter FS9M Vees: Behemoth – Demolisher – XO – yay Schrek PPC Carrier Brutus - yay Bulldog Von Luckner K100 Maxim - yay Vedette Pegasus!!! Saracen Scimitar Striker I’d love that Archer, Demolisher Schrek, Brutus, Maxim and Pegasus. They are all random. They have an epic number of AC20s. They are in the middle and us on the north. Here is their Bulldog: this heavy vee weighs 60 tons and moves 4/6. It’s got a lighter armored 104 points. Weapons are the Large Laser and 2 SRM4s in the turret and a MG front. Pic:  |
We are on a Grasslands map.
Set-up – We thump them 11-6. They set up first. Their Victor is right next to us. The rest on other side of forests. Turn 1 – We win init - 7-5 - closer. Their Behemoth moves first, based by our Charger who moved 5. Our Griffin too. Their Schrek on the other side off the woods based by our Grasshopper and PXH. Our Longbow and Orion base their Centurion – but the Longbow moved 4. Our Jenner on their Schrek but their Archer on the far side, no chance of basing for getting it. Our Atlas and Warhammer move 4 and base their Demolisher. Their Victor moves last ,leaps behind our Warhammer to base its rear our TDR bases its rear too. Weapons fire! At their Demolisher. Longbow, JagerMech and CRD and Warhammer at their Schrek long range stuff. Our Warhammer destroys their Shrek’s Turret. Dead! Our Grasshopper destroys their Demolisher’s front!!! Melee!!! We drop their Centurion, but split which leg was kicked. Turn 2 – We keep init 12-9. Our Atlas’s ate a ton of AC20s from their Demolisher and has just 3 left internal in its RT, I eject it. They don’t rise their Centurion. Our Charger and Griffin base their Brutus on the far side of the map. No easy weapons fires elsewhere. Our PXH join and Jenner too to them. Their Behemoth based by our Warhammer, TDR and Orion. Our Longbow and CRD base their Striker. Our Hopper by their Maxim. Who do I fire at? Brutus? Von Luckner? I go overheat on both. They drop and black out our Grasshopper so no chance on the Maxim. Our Charger’s SRM6 destroyed their Brutus’s left side. Our Crusader destroyed the front on their Von Luckner!!! Melee! just like their Centurion, their Striker avoids death…but not their Behemoth!!! It’s left side is destroyed by my Warhammer!!! Their Victor leg’s it’s LL though. We took out their 4 VTOLs and 2 fighters. They flee their Leopard and Gazelle and load up and then split up one heading to the Nadir and Zenith JumpPoints. Our mechs radio their vectors to the forces in space. Our Achilles is faster than both, so I split up 2 Aquarius and the Achilles at the Gazelle and everything else at their Leopard. We take out the Gazelle easy. Our Leopard CV and salvaged and captured and all of our fighters and Aquarius too hit it. We do take it out, but lose loads of fighters and an Aquarius. Can we salvage either? Or both? We do salvage their Gazelle and Leopard. Tossed a 9 and 12. It costs us 6 mill and 8 mill – 14 mill total. Spent!!! War chest is 152,169,379. Battle Loss – We took 8 mill, lost 4 fighters, 2 can be salvaged for 2.1 mill and then the other two lost for 12,307,500 and an Aquarius for 14,221,500. We can salvage one of their fighters for 750k.

I am going to push back the first deal until later since I don’t have much time tonight with an interview at 5-6 and I’m not sure which ones are there.
Beginning of Contract #94: Dec 28, 3030 – We arrive in the FS system of Bartow’s Nadir JumpPoint with Khamésh Company for the ComStar raid. No one stops us at the JumpPoint so we head to the planet. Jan 02, 3031 – We get to the planet, and again no major issues stopping us. We land at a DropPort around 3 hours around at the place and begin to head out. We confirm they are intended, true, they are a company mostly, but they have an extra mech. Here they are: BattleMaster 1D – veteran – CO – love it. Charger - veteran Zeus 6S – veteran – XO - huh, did they get this from their alliance with House Steiner? Crusader 3D – yay!! JagerMech – not great Warhammer 6D!!! – love it Blackjack Shadow Hawk 2D – not great Trebuchet Wolverine 6D – not my favorite variant Commando Javelin Locust 3V – variant with 2 MLL and 2 MG. Love that CRD, Warhammer, and BM, not the Wolverine much. They have a ton of ACs in the JM< BJ, and Wolverine and more. They are regular, and in the middle. This is their BlackJack – a medium mech weighing 45 tons moving 4/6/4 and then with 4 ML, 2 Ac2, and then 11 heat sinks and okay armor at one ton shy of max – not bad for afire support weapon. Pic:  |
Set-up – we lose a high scoring 11-10. I set up, their BM is close to us. Then the rest pretty far away.
Turn 1 – We win init 9-8 by one. They first move their Warhammer, no bases though it’s too far. Our WW camps in a Heavy woods. Our Atlas bases their BJ, their Zeus bases in front it’s flank of the BJ, our Orion bases their Zeus. Their JagerMech bases our Orion, our Hopper bases their Zeus too. Our BM and Jenner base their JM. Our PXH bases their SHD. Their BM bases my TBT’s flank, our Locust’s its. Weapons fire at their BM if they can draw LOS otherwise their TBT. We don’t drop their BM or any parts, just to the ground, Our Orion blows up their Ammo and TBT though. Melee!!! Our Jenner legs their JM’s RL!!! We drop their Zeus. Turn 2 – We keep init and thump them 12-5. They turn the JM, no ejects. Our WW stays in the camp spot. Our Locust bases their Wolverine’s flank and our Jenner it’s front. Their BM rises and bases my TBT, and it’s in my rear behind our lines. Our PXH leaps by their Wolverine too. Our Orion bases their SHD. Their Locust bases my Stalker’s flank. Our Warhammer bases their SHD too to make sure it’s legged. They hop their BJ away my, BM bases it. Their CRD holds back and doesn’t move but cannot be based, Our Atlas and Grasshopper base their Warhammer. Their Zeus rises on their last turn. I fire if they can draw a LOS to their BM to hit it, otherwise their Zeus or Charger and then CRD for everything near. Our Grasshopper’s ML hits the ammo on the Crusader’s RT, dead mech….not great. Their BM survives. Melee!!! Our Orion legs their SHD’s LL and then hits the AC5 ammo – boom, dead mech!! Our BM legs their BJs’s RL!! They flee the two range mechs legged and flee. Salvage: Crusader – H, LL, LA, LT, RL Shadow Hawk 2D – H, RA, RT, LA Trebuchet – H, LA, LL, RA, RL, RT JagerMech – missing RL; see below BlackJack - missing RL; see below Well we legged the AC units, sad.

Their Catapult doesn’t rise it stays there. I base it with our TDR and CRD. Our Awesome bases their Wolverine too. Weapons fire at their….hmm…Rifleman I guess. If I cannot draw LOS I fire at their Dragon behind woods instead. Their Wolfhound survives. Our Jenner destroys their Rifleman’s LL, and…that’s it! Legged! Their Dragon didn’t even fall. Kicks time!!! Can we leg their Clint and Wolverine? Probably but their Catapult on the ground unlikely. Our Atlas destroys the RL on their Clint and Banshee the same spot and the RT down. Our Grasshopper LL’s their Wolverine! Down. We did kick their Catapult in the leg, but the tother one. With their leader blacked out and captured and we took out their XO’s mech too.

Turn 1 – We lose init this time a low scoring 5-2. Well, insert sad face here. We move 5, they begin to flank with their Locusts, Hermes II, Stingers, and such down the flanks. I base their left Stinger with my Hermes II and Wolfhound whose flank is 7 away from their Spider’s jump, it takes the bait and is based by our Javelin, Spider and Wolverine. They moved five too. Weapons fire spilt 18 and 18 at their BM and Atlas. Our Catapult in Deich hit the ammo in their Atlas’s LT, dead mech!!! Also, RA destroyed.

I eject my Zhukov. They leap their Catapult away, no legs. Their flankers to my rear, and are basing us, and their Locusts base my rear of and flank of Deich’s Archer. I base one with our Spider, Jav and Wolfhound. The other our Wolverine and Hermes II. We base their MAD with our Stalker, Striker, and Longbow.

Set-up – We win easily 9-4. They set up their Atlas near us, and then the rest far away, and I set up outside of the base’s border and can see all of their stuff. Yay! Remember they have three AC20s in their mechs, not an easy squad.
Turn 1 – They thump us back 10-2. Ouch! I move 5 where possible, but we are near the border, not much space to go. We base their Cyclops with our Atlas, Banshee and B M and moved 3 or 4 each. Then their Atlas bases the flank of our last assault the Longbow and then we base it with our face punching TDR and Warhammer. We base their Crusader after it jumps to our Warhammer’s base with our Catapult, our own CRD, and then Grasshopper too. We base their Urbie with our Wolverine, Hermes and Javelin. Yay!!! Weapons fire on their Atlas with our mechs and 6 each on their lighter armored Schrek and SRM Carrier. Our Longbow hit the ammo in their Atlas – boom, dead mech!!!

We drop and leg their CRD’s LL. Our Jav legs their Urbie’s LL too. They immobilize our Ontos! They, in one turn, lost a leader, had three mechs legged and then lost two vees, I toss to see. We tossed an 8 and they’ll keep on coming. Turn 2 – We lose again 8-7 - close! We eject the Ontos. They…STAND their Urbie. Ouch. They backup their Archer, no bases. We do base their Cataphract with what was on the Cyclops - BM, and Atlas and Banshee. We base their Locust with our Jav, Hemes and Wolverine that’s in our rear based to our Longbow. Their VND jumps and bases the flank of our Jav, and I base it with our Hopper, Catapult and CRD trying to bring it down. They base our well armored Condor with their Wasp and Shadow Hawk – hopefully no destruction there. Weapons fire – Our mechs were supposed to take our their AC20 Cyclops but with it fallen and legged I target their Archer instead. Then our vees split up and 5 hit their LRM Carrier and 6 their J. Edgar. Their UrbanMech’s AC20 hit on our H on our TDR – dead mech and pilot. Our Longbow also destroys their Archer’s RT ammo -dead mech!! We also took out the LA too.

I move them around and base it’s flanks. Their Stalker bases my JVN. Weapons fire at their Longbow if I can see if after it moved to the other side of woods. If I cannot I fire at their Rifleman.

Shadow Hawk 2D – ouch Trebuchet Wolverine 6D – not great, sorry, just an AC10 Light: 2 Commando 2 Javelin Locust 1E – not bad Stinger 2 Wasp 1D 2 Wolfhound – yay!!! Love those Wolfhounds. Love 5 Assaults, 2 Catapults, CRD, Warhammer, maybe the TDR PXH and Hunchback and 2 Wolfhounds. I typically love Davion’s stuff right now. They are regular in ability on the north side of an urban base. Here is their maybe TDR 5Dm, it weighs 65 tons, moves, 4/6, has max armor and 14 heat sinks…and it has as it’s big weapon an AC20 with 10 shots and then keeps the LRM but a 10. It weirdly only makes 11 heat you should drop two heat sinks for 2 ML easily enough to punish the hole making and then swap the LRM for an SRM too. Pic is here: |
Set-up – We win 8 -7. Close!!! We set up at the top of the southern edge, we can only see around 25% of their mechs,
Turn 1 – We also lose close too, 9-8. We charge 5. They flank flights and fast mediums down the flanks like Commandos, Javs, Wasp and Wolfhounds. We base their east flank Wolfhound with our two Jenners and Spider. Weapons fire – I fire 18 at their long range at around 9 or 10 away and +2 to hit and then 18 at their Awesome – both are just energy weapons or MGs. Our Grasshopper in the Fiche a Cúig company hit the BM’s head with its LL, dead! We also take out it’s LL and LA. Our Orion in Baais hit their Awesome’s CT and destroyed it, nothing else destroyed though. Two kills, but one salvageable. Melee! Our Spider legs their Wolfhounds RL – yay!!! It falls. Turn 2 – We are thumped in init 10-2. Ouchie. We charge 5 where possible. We base their TDR with Fiche a Cúig’s four smash stuff after it moves in front but just move 3 and 4 to base it. Atlas, Charger, TDR and Orion. Then their Griffin leaps and bases our Orion’s flank, based with that company’s Longbow, Warhammer and CRD. Then I push in Twanenty-Fower’s smash Atlas, Banshee and BM to base their CRD and leg it!!!! They begin to flank us and move into our rear arcs our two Jenners and Spider base their Locust and then our two PXHs and Griffin base their Cicada. Weapons fire. We fire 12 each at their Stalkers and Longbow. Our Warhammer 6D mech in Fiche a Cúig’s hits their Longbow’s ammo in the LT, dead, mech, we also legged the LL too. Twanenty-Fower’s Awesome hits the RL of their Stalker and takes it out. Our CRD hits the other leg, double legged!!! Baais’s Archer hit the ammo in their other Stalker – boom, dead mech!!! We also destroy both arms. Melee!!! Our Orion legs their TDR’s LL. We split attacks on their CRD’s legs it falls. Our CRD legs their Griffin’s RL. We drop but split attacks on their Locust but our Griffin legs their Cicada’s RL too. They drop and leg our Spider’s LL. Turn 3 – We still lose a high scoring 12-11. That hurts. We eject the legged Spider and they the double legged Stalker. They rise their CRD, and I stay based with our Atlas, Banshee and BM. They also rise the Locust and my Spider, and Jenners stay on it too. I base their Warhammer with our four smash mechs in Baais - the Atlas, Banshee 3S, BattleMaster 1D, and Orion. I base their Hunchback with our Awesome, Stalker and Catapult in Baais too. I base their JM with two Grasshoppers and an Archer. I base their TBT with our 2 PXHs a Griffin and Wolverine. Weapons fire!! I fire 12 each at their Catapults and Cyclops. I take out all three. The first’s ammo in the RT hit by our Warhammer again in Fiche a Cúig, Baais’s Orion hits the ammo in the LT of the other. Then Twanenty-Fower’s Grasshopper hit the Cyclops’ ammo too. Boom, dead mech!!! Their Cyclops’s AC20 hit the head and decapitated our Catapult in Baais. Melee!!! Our Jenner legs their Locust’s RL!!! Our Orion legs their Warhammer’s RL!!! Our Banshee legs the LL in their CRD!!!! Our Catapult the RL in their ML carrying Hunchback. We drop but miss and split attacks on their JM and TBT that fall but survive.

END OF CONTRACT #98!!!!!!!!! |
Beginning of Contract #99:
Jan 10, 3031 – We arrive at the St. Ives Compact world of St. Loris at it’s Nadir JumpPoint with Shishi Mech and Zeta Vee, in a Gazelle, Union and 2 Leopard CV and one Achilles and Intruder to do it’s security deal for three months. It’ll end on April 10, 3031 and we got a Command Circuit here to help with Liao Rebels. Jan 14, 3031 – We land at the quiet and nothing here, but the CC needs to bring in and get even moral victories right now. We inspect and set up defenses and more and prepare stuff too. We set up our normal two lances of patrols too. Jan 19 – There are some protests at our presence since we fought on the side of the FS in the 4th and then on the side of the Duchy of Andurien against the CC too. Jan 22 - They begin rioting against us in large numbers. Jan 24 – They begin to bomb various places like the local utilities and such here. Jan 26 – They send a force against us a mixed force of mechs, vees, VTOLs and infantry too. Shishi Mech: Atlas AS7D BattleMaster 1G Banshee 3S Thunderbolt Awesome Catapult C1 CRD3R Crusader Archer 2R Grasshopper Jenner 7F Wolverine 6R Spider Not bad smash and fire support and even scouts too. Here are our Rebel foes!!!

Pike missile variant Rommel!! 2 Condor, Liao!!! 2 Vedette, Liao Hunter!!! Pegasus!! 2 Scimitar Yes that’s 16 vees. Love that Demolisher, Manticore, Rommel, Condors and Pegasus and Hunter too. VTOLS: 6 Warriors Infantry: 3 each foot, jump and motorized with three Anti-mech jumps. This is their good CO mech the Cyclops designed for it. It’s the only major 90 tonner, with lighter 10 tons of armor, AC20, LRM 10, 2 ML and an SRM4 - good weapons, but just 12 heat sinks and then4/6 movement – move it to 3/5 and then upgrade its armor and sinks would be good, like they did with our beloved Banshee. Picture:  We’re in the middle of an Urban base. They are on the north. |
Set-up – We win 9-4. Hmm. Nice work hours!! We put our stuff on the outskirts of the base and center so they can see all of my forces. No hiding!!! Nothing is near us since they are attacking me in the middle.
Turn 1 – We lose init this time 12-7. Huh!!! Not great work hours. Then we move as far as I can as fast as I can. I base their Centurion with my Atlas, BM and Banshee that only move 3 or 4. Then they begin to flank us with Pegasus, Condors and more and Locust and Wasp. I base their Pegasus with my two lights -Jenner and Spider that have the speed to base it, they base our Banshee’s flank with their VND, which I base with our Grasshopper, Wolverine and Catapult, Archer too. Weapons fire – 12 mechs at their Awesome and 12 vees at their Demolisher!!! Zeta’s Drillson destroys their Demolisher’s front!!! Shishi’s Catapult hits the LRM ammo in their Awesome -boom dead mech. They half the speed on my Maxim, melee!!! We hurt their Pegasus but it’s fine. Our Archer legs their Vindicator’s LL and our Banshee the LL on their Centurion too. They drop our Banshee though. Turn 2 – We keep losing init 6-4. We eject our Maxim and then rise our Banshee and charge them and base their Behemoth. Our Jenner and Spider stick with their damaged Pegasus and our Awesome, CRD, and TBolt base their Rifleman. Then our Atlas, and BM also base their Behemoth too. Our Wolverine, Grasshopper and Archer base their Hunter, and then our Catapult their Scimitar. Weapons fire - 12 each at their Manticore and Rommel. Our Catapult also hit the side of their Manticore – dead!!! Our Von Luckner destroys their Rommel’s turret!!! Melee!!! They drop and leg our Jenner’s LL after it also hit it on the way down. Then it gets back by destroying their Pegasus’s right side. Then our TBolt legs their Rifleman’s RL!!! Our Archer immobilizes their Hunter!!! With us taking out 5 vees, and legged or destroyed 4 mechs, they flee their base and it’s ours!!! Salvage: Demolisher – destroyed front; we toss a 7 nope - Manticore – missing side; we toss a 4, nope Rommel – missing turret; we toss a 7 nope Pegasus – destroyed right side; we toss a 9 - ours Hunter - immobile We added a Hunter and Pegasus.

War chest is 60,128,741 Us: Maxim – half speed Jenner 7F – missing LL; to fix – 300k We fix the Maxim easily enough. We pay for the leg. Battle Loss – 300k. |
Feb 02, 3031 – Arriving at the Zenith JumpPoint across from us are two Merchant JumpShips with CC military logos. They have a Vengeance, Avenger, and two Unions. They announce that they are here to punish us. They are coming in with 2 mech companies to our one each mech and vee. We could handle two Leopards and two escorts like Avengers. things, but a Vengeance has 40 fighters, so I pull my stuff and send it to hide. They WILL have air support too.
Feb 06 – They arrive at the planet. Here are the attacking CC force! Assault: BattleMaster – CO – yay!!!, elite Charger 1A5 – XO - yay - elite Cyclops – elite Goliath - elite They are all elite and veteran overall. Love that BM and Charger!!! Heavy: Cataphract 2X Catapult – yay!!! Marauder 3L Quickdraw Thunderbolt – love it!!! Warhammer 6L Love that Catapult and TBolt too. Medium: Blackjack Centurion AL Cicada Phoenix Hawk !!! Shadow Hawk 2 Vindicators Whitworth Wolverine!!! Love that PXH and Wolverine Light: Locust 1L 2 UrbanMech 60L Raven 4X 2 Wasp 1L We are in the middles since they are attacking us, on the same urban base map and then they are on the north side attacking us again. This is their Raven 4X - it removes the big and not working ECW suite for a more combat role. It weighs 35 tons, moves 5/8/5, has armor at max 7 tons the max and then for weapons it has 2 ML, SRM6, 2 MG and 12 heat sinks – enough to use all weapons and then run – not a bad variant at all, love to bring it in. Pic:  |
Set-up – We win nastily 11-3!! We set up outside of thee base at the top of the box! They set up around us in the urban chaos but none near us.
Turn 1 - They thump us back in init, but closer 11-5. Both 11s!!! Then I moved my stuff where 5 possible as well as Zeta’s assault vees one at a time under them. Then they begin to flank us with the Locust, Raven, Wasps and Shadow Hawk. I base their Raven with our Jenner, Spider and Wolverine. Then we base their UrbanMech they move in front of our Atlas 3 away, based. It could be a one-kick wonder though. I don’t spend any other mechs to base it. Then their Vindicator bases it’s flank a few turns later, and our BM, Banshee and Archer base it back all move 3 or 4. Then our Grasshopper bases their left flank Locust 7 away from their QD, they take the bait and then they move their QD and base it back, and I bring over our Awesome and TDR to base it back. I also base their Raven with our leaping Catapult to the flank. Weapons fire – I spend 12 each firing at their BM and Charger. Shishi’s CRD hit the Ammo in their BM, boom, dead mech!!!!! Zeta’s Von Luckner’s AC10 hit the Charger’s head, and cracked the cockpit – dead mech!!! We also took out it’s RA too. Melee??!!??!?!! They destroy our Brutus. Our Catapult legs their Raven’s LL. Ours!!! Our Atlas legs the Urbie’s LL. We drop and split attacks on their QD and then our Archer takes out their Vindicator’s LL too. Their QD and Locust drop our Grasshopper though. Turn 2 – They keep init, but just win 3-2. Hmmm. I rise our Grasshopper after they do the QD and keep it based. Our Wolverine, Spider and Jenner base their Locust. They finish flanking us and base our flanks and rears with their lights and faster mediums like Cicada and PXH and such. Our Awesome and TDR stay on their QD. We base their Wolverine with our Archer, Catapult and CRD. Then their Catapult isn’t base able, sorry. I do move our Atlas, Banshee and BM to base their TDR though. Weapons fire 12 each at their Cyclops and Catapult. Shishi’s CRD hit the ammo on their Cyclops’ LRM ammo dead mech! We also destroyed both arms and torsos too. Despite the ton of AC20s and such in the vees, we do take out the LL of their Catapult with our Schrek and the RL by our Manticore. We also take out both arms. We savaged but it survives! Then our Awesome’s RA is destroyed by them and it falls. Hand to hand! Our TDR drops and legs their QD. We drop their TDR but split attacks on legs, it’s not legged. They drop and leg our Grasshopper’s LL. Our Jenner legs their Locust’s RL. Our mechs on the Wolverine drop it, but not legged. We thumped them all good. They eject and flee!!!

I have 4 deals. Here they are: #1. The FS want us to O Raid the DC world of Telos IV one jump from Quentin on the FS, we’d need our fleet and a battallion of mechs, since it’s a bit behind the Line of border and very far but still on the border. We could be there on February 27! #2. The LC want us to O Raid the FWL world of Bainsville a couple of jumps away from the border. We’d be there on March 02, and just need one company. #3. The Tikonov Free Republic want us to do a six month security deal for Epsilon Eridani. We need one company each of mechs and vees, and then could be there on Feb 20. #4. The FWL want us to do an O Raid on the Duchy of Andurien now that Thomas Marik has secured power, and then hurt their ability to keep this up.

Then the TDR is blown up by our Kumi na Tano Grasshopper. Insert sad face here. Then the AC20 in their Hunchback beheads our Banshee’s H in Kumi na Tano. Ouch. Melee! We leg their other Warhammer’s LL. We also leg their QD’s RL. We drop but don’t leg theri Victor, we had a missed kick on it. Our Stalker legs thier Griffin’s LL.
