Phoenix Lance
No retirements.

Mechs are ready to go with 2 exceptions.
1. MAD-5D missing 1 JJ (LL), part needed

Planned: Custom Marauder will finish converting to a MAD-5D assuming the remaining parts including the XL engine can be obtained.

Dancer Actual to Ranger Actual

Marauder repairs complete 5/25/52.  Primary elements of Dancer Lance combat ready this date [5/25/52].

[Ice]

At this point can we assume the plan is in fact Skye then New Earth? Trying to figure out what date we hit planet so I can order parts

[Hat]

That is the plan, but I would hold off on rolls for parts until Rob says otherwise. I expect everyone will be looking for parts.

[Darrian Wolffe]

I am currently holding off on the liftoff from Tukayyid until I have confirmation that everyone has adjusted their lances appropriated re: rewards thread. Once I've seen confirmations all around, then we'll make the move to Skye.

In August, Unit Mech Techs SGT Doris Gonatas and SGT Ann Medrano trained and converted to Regular Battle Armor Techs using the materials provided by the GDL.

Unit Readiness - May 31st
Repairs complete.  All units ready to go.

SGT Natalie Knightly of Phoenix Lance spends 10 XP to add the Heavy Class of Mechs.

So at this stage I will reveal the madness that is the upcoming NEW EARTH FACTORY RUN.

Cataphract will custom to some ungodly dont care mech so can be sold - 20 days on planet needed
warhammer is converting to the cataphract basically... and needs about 30 days
I will be buying the ATLAS D DC from the unit. Stripping said Atlas and this is the dilemma

I can field the atlas javelin and any 2 mechs just about or field any 4 mechs just about without it

the xl convert needs 35 days +20 (cataphract needs sold before can get atlas)  on planet or at least 3/4 - 55 days total as have all parts needed - need 46.175 days on planet basically to make this work

- I can make this 3/5/3 3 ppc gauss xl - gauss being in arm

 or

 3/5/3 2 ppc gauss 2 ML non xl - gauss being in RT- The non xl is actually more bv....2408 vs 2390

both will have dhs and 2 tons ammo

CO has ppc spec and also have an assault pilot with enough to get a weapon spec...

the question is which benefits the unit more. The xl is fairly safe as gauss is in arm but its still xl. While I lose a whole ppc worth of damage on standard plus the gauss will leave me with basically a ml and ppc if it goes

Do we know how long we're planning on sitting on New Earth prior to looking for contracts?

I've pulled the Clantech weapons off the Marauder C, and am about halfway through the installation of other components, and am holding on the second half of the customization until we get factory access (messing with engines is rough), but 6,000 minutes - minimum - for a factory refit is going to be rough given that 6k time factor is before applying any TN-reducing time multipliers.

[Hat]

I have a 50 day refit because of installing MASC with a TN 7 roll. If we arrive late September, maybe November, potentially December. Certainly no contract market before then.

[Hat]

I just looked at your thread, and may see what I can break up to do part of the customization work en route. Will post more soon. Still safe to say no contract market before November though.

[Hat]

Ok, I took care of the 1st part of the Black Knight customizations en route to New Earth.  That cuts that factory work down to 23 days if successful.  November contract market would be iffy, December contract is safe.  I would say with a late September arrival to get through the September and October without a contract market and depending on people's status maybe do a November one.  December would be the absolute latest.  Assuming we've heard of the MRBC setting up on Outreach and it handling contracts by the end of 3052, we'd go there from New Earth after 1 contract market.
