OK, is there anything else which needs dealt with?  I don't suppose anyone has one of the resin mapscale Leopard DropShips from IWM they could bring...
I am working on something close.

Clark: Light Bombing
Yule: Light Strike
Sterling: Heavy Bombing
Waters: Heavy Strike
Mays: Light Air Cover
Sakai: Heavy Air Cover
I found the SPAs, but do any of the ballistic specs actually affect these sort of things? What about Cluster Hitter as well?
I suggest at least one of the attacks should be a strafe. This map, with the various military base maps, encourages lines of mechs to fire over the walls. Lined up mechs make strafes more effective/efficient attacks since more mechs can be hit.

Given the complexity of this mission, I want to get rolling early; 10:30 at the latest.  Please be there NO LATER than 10am.  That may mean leaving earlier than you think necessary due to weather.

Plan on it snowing in the morning and sticking. The current forecast has snow starting around 5 AM and going full bore by 6-7 AM.

What is the parking situation with snow on the roads?  I seem to remember something like Cincinnati as a whole not being able to clear anything thats not an A street, but that may just be that I am in Chicago now where snow removal is actually a thing?

Well, we're in West Chester, so...

Assume Tylersville and Cox north of Tylersville will not be treated, as they never are.  Avoid going to the Vatican via Barrett as much as you can.  (Fun fact, there's still cchunks of the Niro there..). There's snow on the ground your best bet is to approach via US42 to Cox to Kingsgate.

Parking:

For the love of God use the driveway as much as you can.  I'll be out with the snowblower in the morning if necessary.

May want to consider having some meet at shopping center off Tylersville and car pool in. My car will already have 3 of the ten players, but that still leaves up to 8 cars trying to park in driveway.

Also may want to consider ordering pizza instead of everyone trying to go out to get food. It worked well when we played at UC and would probably take less time for the lunch break.

Carpooling when possible would be preferred to keep cars off the street.

that's fair

Depending on accumulation I'll probably let drax out for a bit as he's never seen snow before and Rooney loves the stuff.

Jon, I have Archipelego 1 for you.

Also, to anybody, I need a 3rd copy of DropPort 2.  I have all other maps packed.
