PoptartsNinja posted:Yes, but if you take advantage of the river to extract the Blackjack, the Blackjack will be crippled (temporarily) so one of the lance's spares would have to be broken out of storage to replace it for the next mission. I wonder if the PC pilots bite it are there replacements just hanging around off-screen to jump in like the spare mechs?

It's got a pair of claws, Triple Strength Myomer, and a ridiculous top speed of 172.8 km/h, so it can always get behind an enemy and pry open their weak rear armour and feast on their delicious innards. It also looks like a deranged serial killer. That cockpit 3-eye design

Rifleman Looks like the AA mech is in the correct place to do a little AA. Having never shot at aerospace before, any tips? Since they're only there 1 turn I'm thinking best make my shots count. Everything into the medium? Unless shooting them doesn't actually interrupt their attacks in which case I'm not going to bother.

PoptartsNinja posted:There wasn't a turn in your orders. But I did ask for a kick and there was only one legal move to achieve it - should have been obvious even if I neglected to put the turn order in. I had 3 MP - 2 to get up the hill and 1 to turn left to get in arc for the kick. There is literally no other move available. I would have given you more detailed orders like I've done previously but they are already fiddly when I'm forced to phone post as I can't see the map/sheets at the same time.

GhostStalker posted:You still need to frag the last enemy non LAM mech to complete all your primary objectives. But yeah, PTN said that one of the LAMs is unable to gently caress off because it’s lost an arm so it’s Conversion Gear is hosed, so I think that one might keep fighting for a bit unless a demand for surrender is broadcast and agreed to. That last guy has many holes in it's paper-thin armour and a single medium laser, they're not doing a last stand if we ask for a surrender.

Also PTN was the Rifleman because of the LAMs or were the LAMs because of the Rifleman of was it entirely coincidental?
