I assume the answer is yes, but just to confirm, but do the Convoy mechs contribute to leadership/initiative for the fight?

I expect so, but only relevant if Grayson goes down. With his tactics of +6 and being in a command mech he’s already at the +7 that we can muster with Atayde and an available command mech.

It does raise a good question though, what’s the command structure for the integrated command for this mission?

That is a good question.  Strictly speaking, given the units deployed into the mission, the order would go:

Grayson
Lori (about whom I need to go read the source material to figure her Tactics score)
Kato (if deployed)
Whichever deployed Ranger officer is next in line

The GDL MechWarriors are all enlisted troops, and canonically the GDL infantry/vehicle officers who were deployed against the Falcons at Braunfield were all killed, so there's no viable candidates among those GDL troops.  That means that after Grayson/Lori, you guys end up being next in line.

For the Marauder custom, 4 of the HS are in the legs, where would you like the other 3 sinks to go after altering to DHS?

Is this game still scheduled for June 8? If so,  I couldn't make it as anything more than an after lunch attendee.  Sorry,  didn't spot the schedule conflict earlier.

Dunedain Lance can make a valiant last stand as the unit rearguard. Also, since Dunedain doesn't have an officer with tactics>0, it will help to have the unit commander for initiative mod and not end up in a situation where Dunedain depends on its own initiative. Plus, I won't be here in all likelihood to actually get my new PC anyway, so going out in a blaze of glory is as good an end as any.

I say give the good ex CO lance a crack at the jade turkeys

They have more than enough hate for the turkeys thanks to the death of their CO

Is that a request?
