Question. As this is a defense mission, is it possible to have company level assets attached to the lance for the solo?
-
Not as far as I am aware and if so I would assume its company CO. Also discussion of using in mission 1 and still waiting for an answer on when company asset can be used specifically.

I will also reiterate this in the Mission 1 thread.
Non-Mech reinforcements are Unit-level assets, which are assigned under the command of a Company Commander. Unit level assets - including things like BSP - may never be deployed in a solo scenario. Therefore vehicle assets cannot appear in a Solo scenario. For Non-Mech assets to be included in the game, the relevant scenario must be a group game AND must include the Company CO which is in control of those assets.

Maps:
City Downtown......City Downtown
Seaport................City Residential
Deployment
Primary OPFOR: Enters the board anywhere along the south map edge on their initiative on Turn 1.
OPFOR Reinforcements: Enters the board anywhere along the south map edge on their initiative on Turn 7.
Ranger Forces: Deploys First, within 8 hexes of the map center
Environmental Conditions
Dawn (short): +1 penalty to hit with weapons fire from Turns 1-4. Searchlights do not affect this, All-weather SPA does help.
Moderate Snowfall: +1 to hit modifier on all weapon attacks. All-weather SPA helps against this. Beginning on Turn 20, Deep Snow applies; Mechs sink 1 extra point of heat for each heat sink in the legs (to a maximum of -3), and apply a +1 MP cost to enter each hex with Running or Walking movement, and a +1 penalty to all Piloting Skill rolls. -50 degrees C conditions DO NOT APPLY.
Battlefield Support
none
Victory Conditions
Rangers
1) Destroy or render incapable of spending MP at least 4 units from the Primary OPFOR
2) Norbotten Lance must remain at 50% strength or better, and the liaison must not be destroyed, rendered incapable of spending MP, or crippled.
OPFOR
1) Destroy, cripple, or render incapable of spending MP, at least 3 Ranger units.
2) Destroy, cripple, or render incapable of spending MP, the liaison unit.
MISCELLANEOUS
1) Exiting the battlefield requires a unit to remain stationary at the board edge for 1 turn. Only a single spent MP is required to move offboard (ie, the environmental MP penalties doesn't apply; or, more specifically, the Minimum Movement rule overrides it). Convoy units may only exit from the southern board edge.
2) OPFOR MechWarriors will attempt to capture any ejected Ranger MechWarriors in this scenario, unless a Ranger BattleMech target in LOF is equally as close (or closer) than the ejected MechWarrior, or the Ranger BattleMech target is within 8 hexes and subject to a valid LOF in any case.

Hey Seth, do you feel up to running OpFor on this?
-
I can do that, where and when?
-
I can do that, where and when?
I'm figuring that out. Picking up the pieces at work and I need Rob to answer a question about something regarding the Spartan when he is feeling better.

AAR:
In the early morning of 4/6 Norbottens ready elements were scrambled to intercept a heavy company of FRR Militia - It was determined that the best place to engage was in the streets of a regional downtown, their ambush added by the snow and evening.
Sgt Ashling, very experienced in poor weather engagements, was the bait - his Hauptman in the back of a long avenue, waiting for the FRR militia to engage while Smith, Kenton and newly recruited Burgmeester were lying in wait with their reactors "chilly" awaiting the signal to spring the trap.
Snapping off two quick gauss shots, the Longbow lost a missile rack almost immediately with Kenton, as usual having no regards for saftey, charged headlong into a Crockett and Stalker, and promptly beating the Stalker to death and engaging in melee with the Crockett. On the east flank, Smith and Burgmeester took on a medium lance, with a Shadowhawk getting its leg kicked off for good measure. Burgmeester, also paying no grasp to personal saftey after seeing an angle on the King Crab, charged it in the back, doing severe damage but nothing critical and jumping away while Ashling continuted to drop precision gauss shots into the Excalibur, King Crab and anything that stuck its head out too far.
Burgmeester, continuing his reign of terror, jumped onto the head of the Longbow, confusing its pilot long enough for it to get finished off. Kenton, having finished her game of cat and mouse with the Crockett came back around and pummeled a crippled Griffin, however ending her mission cripped and with a blown hip.
Smith got lucky and blew out the ammo of the Excalibur with the pilot ejecting into the skyscraper next to it, crashing through a window, to not be seen again, while the Longbow pilot was captured after it automatically ejected into the waiting cockpit of Ashlings Hauptmann
The FRR reinforcements did arrive but the fastest element, a Locust was immedialty blown apart by Ashling as it got within LOS - 20 tonners not liking gauss shots.
The Rangers, starting to feel the collective weight of the fire with the Spartan effectively down, the Hauptmann starting to run out of amror and Smith running low on ammo for his large bore autocannon and Burgmeester starting to run his Stealth low on armor made the Rangers offer the FRR the opoprtunity to retreat in good order, which they took.
Rangers destroyed: Crockett, Stalker, Excalibur, Longbow, Locust, Shadow Hawk, Griffin, taking the Stalker and Shadow Hawk as Salvge.
