That's a nice Hetzer lance. Shame if something were to happen to you...

The annoying thing is that I can't even really abuse darkness.  There's like 5 searchlights in the main force alone.

Go for cold and basically immobilize them by temperature.

Evidently I'm playing this scenario with Jon in the next 30 minutes.  Not doing a full writeup; it'll be obvious whether it's a win or loss.

Deployment

PC: Enter on turn 1, west side

OPFOR: Deploy within 5 hexes of board center

OPFOR Reinforcements: Enter on E side of map on Turn 8

Freya Lance emerged victorious, capturing the unconscious Guillotine and its pilot, and surprisingly not with an excessive amount of AC/20-caliber holes in its Mechs.  Victory was declared roughly Turn 15.
 The woods saved my ass.  Full writeup to come later.

At the critical moment my dice just rolled over and played dead. Though the last round large laser shot tried to burst the edge bubble and at least inflict a non-cosmetic level of damage.
