I’m working on getting sheets printed. Should be done this evening.

My wife actually semi painted a red wolverine. I will bring it as long as I am cleared to go.

I've had really bad.allergies or a cold since last week. 100% not covid as an upside as well as it may just be allergies since the wife hasn't gotten sick. I'm in the starting to not feel as bad phase as of today however. I expect it to be manageable or gone by Saturday. Figured I would go with the transparent and considerate route verse showing up and smelling like cough drops.

Also if it was clear Bryan and Logan you have the call as reinforcement.

Also is the option of counter battery strike or fire available against opfor?

When you do mine bsp is it bsp cost per hex or do you get a set depth range to deploy? Not used them other than on opfor side so not sure if we get something like what they do depth wise or not. If we do get something depth wise and its not per hex then the below applies. It seems steep even for .5 bsp a hex if it is per hex. Just not sure on what the intent behind it is because of the opfor stuff.

I do not see an answer in BMM and you gave a 1x3 min. I dont want to assume that 1x3 hex is min/max of light density minefields. I know I've seen them as big as 3x2, 5x1, and 2x3x2 but not sure if those were light density minefields still. Not sure if we have a rule of thumb for anyone CO wise to use going forward to figure these out in the off chance they do use mines. For all I know they could all be the same minefield depth but just vary in density. If thats the case would just need an idea of what the depth options are at that point.

You could also be telling us what the depth patters are at game anyway based on your outline but figured better to toss it out there.

There is no counterbattery fire against OPFOR artillery because OPFOR artillery isn't a tracked unit. Note also that OPFOR doesn't have the option to commit counterbattery fire (via artillery or ASFs) against you this mission either.

BSP for minefield is always "per hex".  A 3-hex long, 1-hex wide, light minefield would cost 1.5 BSP (3 hexes at 0.5 BSP each).  The same sized minefield, but in medium density, would cost 3 BSP.  The size minimum (and elevation requirement) is necessary to prevent having 20 separate minefields in individual hexes scattered across the entire battlefield that will slow the game movement to a crawl.  Note that you can take whatever size minefields you want, as long as it's at least 3 hexes long and 1 hex wide, and you pay the requisite BSP.  Want a 20x1 light minefield? Pay 10 BSP and you're fine.

Finally, I really need someone - ANYONE - to provide a Komodo and Caesar proxy (a Cataphract would be good for the latter).  I have an engagement Friday afternoon, and therefore my stuff for BattleTech is already packed up and I won't be home prior to the game.

I’ve got my 2nd Regiment Cataphract I can bring for the Caesar and an Ostwar in the same colors if you want for the Komodo.

I also have the firestarter and daikyu in red if it matters. I will bring them and if we use them we use them. If not there are other proxies. As far as the allied unit I also have a blue cataphract.

[ItsTehPope]

I believe,I believe, I own a cataphract.  I'll look.
