Weather...do we want to look into something that can slow them down?  They'll be ahead of us to start with and are tied to or faster than Skaraborg for sure, and Crushers heavier elements.

Maybe go for heavier terrain like city or woods. Something that can block routes for even the jumpers might be good.

This would be inadvisable. Heavier terrain would give their units cover. We want as flat and clear terrain as possible. Crusher has LRMs and Skaraborg has many PPCs.

Speed wise, only the Locusts, Jenner, Thorn, and Phoenix Hawks are fast. They represent 7/(16+4) of the opfor. The Crabs are quick at 5/8, and the Panthers have some maneuverability at 4/6/4, while the Whitworth and Hunchbacks are limited to 4/6 and the UrbanMechs...

If anything, we should try for light. Any kind of darkness would crush the mobility of the non-jumpers, kneecapping the Locusts, Thorn and the two PXH-1K Phoenix Hawks. The Jenner can only jump 5. While this might limit Skaraborg's mobility, it will keep units in range. Crusher has all jumpers, so it won't be affected much.

Then the question is reinforcements. Dancer, Dunedain, and Freya can all bring all jumpers, so they wouldn't have a much of a problem with low light.

Whatever is chosen, should be done in a timely manner. I am unsure as to what Crusher does on his off time, but he seems busy. May be best to let Skaraborg decide the rolls.

I have PM'd Brian.

If there is no response by Wednesday evening 8PM, I or Dan will resolve the mission rolls.

I'd say you're a gentleman and a scholar but that would be an insult.  So, i'll just say "Thank you"

My priorities for rerolls are  light (try for movement affecting light) and terrain (as little cover as possible). Are there any other suggestions?
