All right.  I've divided the turrets into 2 groups of 3 each, and I count the Elementals as a single unit.  With that in mind, there's 23 OPFOR units guaranteed to deploy.  With 5 OPFOR players, that's ~4.5 units per person, which is squarely in the range that I want to be. 

Since we only have 9 attendees, and 5 of them need to be OPFOR, that means 4 PC lances by definition.

Because of this, and some other issues via PM, I'm going to do a quick re-design of the target building, instead of using a cardstock Level 30 skyscraper counter.  No, you may not bring the VTOLs after the fact.

Apologies for the delay; I was dealing with Levs drama on top of this game's attendance issues.  I do have a gray Shadow Hawk we can use as well, just not a IIC.  I THOUGHT I had a gray Shadow Cat in Wolf colors, but I can't find it anywhere.  Finally, I have laser turrets, but I'm missing all of my magetized turret bases, so I can't use them.

[deadlyfire2345]

Loki in Brown/black
Shadow Cat in Snow Ravens. Still have them packed rom M2.
Vulture in Snow Ravens as well.

Wyvern and Locust maybe just the IS equivalent as well?

[XanderShade01]

I have the quad laser turrets, shadow Hawk IIC and Locust IIC. (Turrets in my colors, mechs in blue)

[ItsTehPope]

I've actually got a ghost bear mad dog and I'll bring my box of random turrets as well

[Darrian Wolffe]

OK, somebody just bring a Wyvern and we'll be set.  TY.

[deadlyfire2345]

We are having a bit of a bind in how we do turret health.
If I recall, we have done 20 (30 for artillery) +10 additional armor for each additional weapon/tube.

Someone in chat stated they think its +10 for each weapon in the turret.

Salvage pickup:
Blitzkrieg: Dropped Highlander
Paladin: Dropped Nova
Foil: Vulture Prime
Lancer: Dire Wolf Prime

AAR:
Being a bit skeptic about being given false info for something the unit is not entirely used to was a concern for Mayer. Thankfully, it was on the up and up. Lancer, along with Paladin, Blitzkrieg, and Foil, were sent into what felt like a suicide mission to kill someone who betrayed his people to the clans. We had our game plan ready, Foil, along with the help of Paladins LAM took out an artillery turret as fast as possible, Blitzkrieg took the task to destroy munitions buildings, Lancer and Paladin worked on finding the target in the SE. We did not get the full drop on them for some were able to immediately react to our presence. Turrets on the forward base were taken out swiftly and destruction of buildings went underway.
Not wanting to trouble our employer, we kept all units in house while traversing into the penthouse suite of his building by having a jumping unit bring a point of BA close to the top floor. Enemy elementals followed, but were slowed by the fact that the Gray Death are fast and nimble on the ground. While the BA did its thing, fire against the Rangers began to heat up. So much so that Foil was separated on the trek back from destroying artillery and almost had Owens drop from damage. Blitzkrieg started to get surrounded by a few small omnis with an assault star closing in on position. Dealing with the buildings dealt massive damage to Blitzkrieg CO and his Highlander had to shut down to be preserved from more damage.
Paladin was met with a heavy star and also began to take heavy damage and had to abandon a Nova to preserve it. Lancer kept towards the building to ensure the BA had a place to exfil when the mission ultimately was completed. They jumped out of the building onto local Fenris while an Elemental point was harassing the mech. By the time we completed everything and were heading out the door, seismic readings picked up rumbling coming in from the East, which ended up being at least a binary of Daishis that would have wreaked havoc on units that were left behind. Thankfully all Ranger MW survived the encounter, while only taking small casualties in an infantry team that tried to stay behind and take pot shots at enemies. Was killing him worth it in the end? Unsure, but everything worked out somehow with min issue.

Rob,

I realize this is the first contract of this kind that we've seen and want to understand how it's working. 

p.58 of the rules v6 - Final Release under the "Assassination" mission notes: "-if successful, every Lance Leader rolls two Random Bonuses (no Personnel results) with a reroll."

Are these still to be done or did our contract effectively exclude them?

I straight forgot. Adepticon.  Please remind me on Monday and I'll get it done immediately.

Hi Rob. This is your Monday reminder.

[Darrian Wolffe]

Hi Rob. This is your Monday reminder.

Just woke up, working now

[Darrian Wolffe]

Paul, did you post the payout info from the MEDEA anywhere, or are you waiting to disburse funds until the end of WOTAN?


Random Bonuses from Assassination Mission

If you want a reroll, post your request.  Don't DM me, please.  Remember, if you get a Mech and have no mech slots left, you need to immediately sell something (which can be the Mech you got as a bonus).  Vehicles go directly to the unit, but it's polite for the Unit CO to give you a reasonable CB disbursement in return.  Trading you a Unit Mech is probably also OK.  Lances being able to get Vees as random bonuses makes things a bit loose.
