Arrowflight I would think is a maybe.  The rest?  Ugh.

[Timberwolfd]

BULLWINKLE
Pros: Regular opponents in A rated equipment, short contract
Cons: everything else
Verdict: PASS

ARROWFLIGHT
Pros: 50% salvage, short/medium contract, pirate hunting has lots of side missions, No Return is near Sarna/St. Ives, 50% BLC
Cons: 45% transportation basically pays the bills and not much more
Verdict: acceptable with renegotiation of transport terms and command rights, could be a good pay off

YAGA
Pros: Pretty good contract with decent transport salvage and BLC
Cons: Against FS (roleplay)
Verdict: Traitorous
Also, what does a relief duty mission look like?

FRANKLIN
Pros: B rated equipment opponent with 60% salvage
Cons: House Command, pitiful BLC, (In Clan Wolf Invasion Corridor)
Verdict: Negotiable

KESTREL
Metagame: Hell no! A 3 year garrison contract in the future Jade Falcon Occupation Zone with a 146 day transit time puts us there in mid/late 3050...
Other than that, how was the play Mrs. Lincoln?
Pros: High transport, salvage, decent BLC and Independent command
Cons: location, location, location. (Also note that we get transportation payments at the end of the contract, not up front.)
Verdict: Take it anyway?

Arrow or wait

[Timberwolfd]

Rob, let's renegotiate command rights and transport once each. If bot improve, go for straight support, otherwise reroll whichever failed or transport if both failed.

Also, what does a relief duty mission look like?

"When unexpected attacks materialize, relief expeditions must move to support local garrison and defensive forces. Sometimes this is fairly simple, but usually it is the equivalent of mounting a whole new planetary assault. The original attacker often controls the approaches to the world and much of the planetary surface. Moreover, relief duty is chancy because there is no way of predicting whether the original defenders will still be in position and putting up a fight when help reaches them."

Basically, there's a reason why it pays well.

On which contract?

The negotiations didn't go so hot.  1 reroll left.




FWIW, I personally say we go after Kestrel, if for no other reason than people are getting somewhat bored of the same ~48 available Inner Sphere Mechs and that'll fast-forward us a few years to when new stuff is coming out.

[Darrian Wolffe]

Oh, also Kestrel maybe because it only requires *10* lances, not eleven, which means we can apply a Training Role rotation and pass around a fair amount of XP, probably something like +10 per player.

[Timberwolfd]

Reroll transportation with the last shot. If it's still crap, KESTREL, here we come.

Especially when we add Phoenix Lance.

I think the Feddies might still be holding a grudge about that whole Traitors thing.

[Timberwolfd]

KESTREL it is.

[Timberwolfd]

KESTREL it is.

Let's try to improve straight support with the rerolls.

[Darrian Wolffe]

KESTREL it is.

Real quick, do you want to run this one by the rest of the unit at all?
