Ok, will afternoon work for you? Say about 2? I'm going to see if I can use my parents space; I'll be in the Tri-county Mall area from 1130-1:30 today, so that should be less driving for you.

Open Terrain 3.......Open Terrain 2
Open Terrain 1.......Open Terrain 2 (new)

Both sides start up to 5 hexes in from the board edge on their respective sides.  OPFOR must deploy in lance-sized formations, and the closest members of the formations must be at least 8 hexes apart.  Stand Up is a last-man-standing brawl, or ends with a /victory.

I have to be up there this afternoon anyway with Eli, so consider this a stress test of their new AC system.  I've got all the sheets printed.

After-action report
4 August, 3057
Fury Lance
LT SG Baxter, commanding


On 4 August, Fury Lance met, engaged, and defeated a FedCom middleweight BattleMech lance reinforced by a platoon of combat vehicles.  Upon sighting the OPFOR, SGT Thomas in her Wraith swung far to the north of Fury's main body.  The threat in being of her turning their northern flank held the FedCom BattleMech units to remain on the north edge of the engagement area, too far away to effectively support the combat vehicles to their south.  This allowed the remainder of Fury Lance, as well as Tai-i Gelacak, the Combine liaison, to concentrate upon the combat vehicles in isolation.  First blood of the day went to the Tai-i, detonating a flight of LRMs in a Scorpion's crew compartment.  While SGT Thomas demonstrated in the north, the remainder of Fury Lance dressed their lines, instructed the Tai-i to hang back at a safe distance, and turned to face the BattleMechs to the north just as SGT Thomas disabled the FedCom Venom sent to hunt her down.

The OPFOR BattleMechs advanced in a loose wedge; the Archer on top of a low rise, the Caesar down the center, and the Hatchetman along their eastern flank, blocking Fury's Wraith from attempting to turn that flank.  A sharp exchange of fire at close range caused significant internal damage to SGT Mars' Warhammer, who would essentially withdraw to a safe distance, but in return the Caesar was crippled and then finished off by LT Baxter.  At this point, LTJG Montgomery and ST Thomas paired off against the FedCom Hatchetman while LT Baxter engaged the Archer.  The Hatchetman pilot, in a tremendous display of piloting prowess, got the better of the two Fury Lance Mechs for nearly a full minute, daring the low gravity and jumping repeatedly into position to make effective weapon and hatchet attacks, and practically all of the Fury return fire missed.  It required SGT Mars's Warhammer to trundle back into the fray to finish the Mech off.  Unfortunately, this was accomplished via SGT Thomas blowing the head of the Hatchetman clean off with an LPL hit, killing the impressive MechWarrior.  It was at this point that LT Baxter offered to allow the Archer to depart the field, and faced with the full firepower of all four Fury Lance BattleMechs, the pilot wisely withdrew, ceding the field to Ranger forces.

Kill record
LT SG Baxter - Vedette, Caesar
LT JG Montgomery - Scorpion
SGT Mars - Ku
SGT Thomas - Venom, Hatchetman

Two pilots (Caesar, Venom) were captured by Fury, and (due to monetary constraints) the Venom was salvaged with the intent to sell the unit.
