I think the Jaggermech needs to get shots on the Glass Spider so it can TAC a Gauss and take it out of the fight. Fire downrange at the Stone Rhino next, obv. edit: I'm just an dumbass observer, though, so feel free to ignore me.

Kickass Harpsichord posted:Yeah, I'm just not in a great position, and I'm going to take some punishment no matter what I do. I had considered withdrawing, but then it's very easy for the OpFor to surround me on the following turns and exposes me to the Gargoyle's fire as well. At least I out-weight and out-kick the Balius, and also, because of the new minimum range rules in effect, I suffer decreased penalties to hit due to minimum range. We'll see what happens.

Can the Mauler walk backwards 3? That would get it out of range of those Heavy SLs for a turn... The Battlemaster is down to 7 Left Torso Internals. It looks to me like the Sag, Hata, and Battlemaster can all get out of sight of the Stone Rhino (behind the H17) where they could also unload on either two different Eponas and the Summoner. That sounds wisest to me because it reduces the incoming fire that they can receive and allows them to focus fire on something that they want to eliminate. The Summoner and the Stone Rhino are pristine so why bother shooting them this round? Focus down those Eponas and get out of dodge, which also gets you closer to achieving the objective of linking up. You could also try to unload PPCs on the rear of the Glass Spider, I think? Also if you move out of its sight you may force the Stone Rhino to move and maybe it will get close enough to flank it rather than staring down its bigass guns. edit: The side of the Epona in 1224 is the side that got hit by the Hunchback's Heavy Assault gun...

I gotta say, I would love to see the Naginata (it can stay stationary and be at short range for the LRMs), Hata, Battlemaster, and Sag all alphastrike the Summoner. And/or the Sag jump to 1118 and shoot the poo poo out the backs of both of those tanks... edit - just counted it and the Stone Rhino could fire those Gauss at Isokoru AAAAA!

I may have posted before about how I, as an observer, think it would be neat to see the Summoner get a beatdown, but upon further thought and review, hitting the (undamaged) Summoner will be hard and those Eponas and the Glass Spider need to die. The situation for those three mechs in the middle is pretty dicey - open torsos and surrounded on all sides...

Send it towards the Stone Rhino first I would love to see the Battlemaster play LoS games with the Stone Rhino by going to 1622 and unloading on the back of the Epona this turn and the Sag heading north of the H17 (jump to 1119 facing 1218(torso twist to shoot at the Summoner or southern Epona or something))... That way one of you would be able to jockey for position for rear shots in a turn or two hahah AAAAA! Real Muenster fucked around with this message at 22:30 on Aug 15, 2017 |

Are the SRMs on Roughneck #3 a variety that only have a range of 3?

"Star Commander Drumf, they have a Jagermech!" "Aff, we will beware of its anti-aircraft capabilities. I am surprised it survived a fight with our ground forces." "Sir, the Jagermech is killing everyone, stay away!" @PTN: Is it a typo that Roughneck 3 has SRM 6s with no medium or long range at 6 and 9 respectively, and thus only a short range of 3? Looks like it may be a typo? AAAAA! Real Muenster fucked around with this message at 20:26 on Aug 17, 2017 |
