Spright

The call to mount-up and head to the field in their 'Mechs surprised McGonnegal. He had only barely finished his dinner before the alarm to move out had been signaled. Matthew ran into Yoshi along the way and the two scrambled up through their cockpits and set off to the vehicle lance's Nav Points. Yoshi seemed to be doing a little yawning as the pair took off. ++Feel free to catch some shut-eye, lad. Key in your autopilot on my signal and I'll get us there.++

The BattleMechs then set off into the distance to join up with the rest of their company. After a long cruise, the MechWarriors were soon to arrive at their destination when suddenly sensors began pinging multiple hostile signatures in the proximity. ++Yoshi! Watch it - we're going in hot!++

Gah! Whaddaheck?! Who... how... the Jenner and the Hatchetman belong to that other lance, right?

Actions:
Run to 0807.
Fire SRM4 and MLAS at the Clint (?) in 0803.
Prepare for one heckuvva beating from said bandit, unless it turns around to engage the big guys behind it, in which case it'd be one sweet time to go flanking with sneak attacks...

((No, I haven't played many Rogues...))

"Sir! Yes..." Yoshi barks back to McGonnegal and then his voice catches in his throat as strange sensor readings pop up on his screen. Friendlies coming up from behind them? A friggn' bandit CLINT?! Damn, a Jenner! If we make it through this, I'm a-wanting one of those! If he's one of us, I wonder if I can gamble him for it...? "What in... who? How'd we... those two heavies, are they with us?"

Not waiting for an answer and eagre to draw first blood this time, he pushes his mech and opens fire with his MLAS and SRM4, both arms of the Kamikaze Commando blooming with flame.

Spright

McGonnegal had nearly forgotten that Harlon spoke of an allied lance coming in to help in this battle. When the IFFs of the Hatchetman and Jenner came back as friendlies, Matthew smiled with relief. "Shoo! Damn near stained my seat, here." With his newfound understanding of the ally-to-enemy ratio bolstering his confidence, Matthew slams his Javelin into top speed and goes cruising up the western flank of the battle. ++Spright, going north! I'll try to pin in those infantry for us.++

Mikhail (Saracen)

Mik was annoyed. No he was well and truly angry. Those low down bandit ground pounders had actually chipped the armour off. Well, he’d seen them off but his sensors and radios were telling him about new targets but he couldn’t see a one o them. And if you cain’t see it (he thought) ye cain’t hit it.

“This is Mik. Taking the high ground.” He slammed the rudders over, tipping the Saracen, his yì jiào tú, slightly as he swivelled her around. Slowly she responded and he gunned the engine as he forced her up the hill side behind him. Flooring her, it was a matter of moments before he came up onto the ridge line and could see the targets he wanted.

“Ai Yah Tien Ah.” He muttered as he could see most of the targets laid out across the hilly terrain. “ First things first. “ He muttered, as he locked the turret in place and triggered a salvo.

(Fluff)

The slow rhythmic thumping of a battlemech is what many technicians and mechwarriors alike prefer to sleep by. Unfortunately when enough firepower is unloaded upon that particular mech, the gentle beat becomes a strained and painful crunching of various servos as mryomers struggle to maintain the mech in the upright position.

Such was the case was the remnants of the Steiner garrison, displaced and in dire need of supplies and support, the Hatchman ground its way forward. Hauptmann Verlos, push his new mech forward, desperately rasing his autocannon upwards in an effort to return the damage he had sustained, only to remember ammunition had run dry days ago.

The resounding beep from his IFF system reported definite friendly contacts. Verlos, feeling a sense of hope, drove what was left of his command lance forward, at the heels of the bandits.

[Miraqariftsky]

The left arm of his mech shudders as the missiles leave their racks, the exhaust plumes backlighting the slagged and pitted armour. Looking at it, he winces as if he himself had lobbed a punch using a bleeding-and-bandaged arm.

Having confirmed that the contacts beyond the gorge coming up behind the bandits are friendlies, Yoshi takes heart and gives in to the adrenaline rushing through his veins. Patching into a general frequency while keying his weapons together, preparing to launch an alpha strike, no longer bothering with subtlety, he cracks out to all and sundry, "Hammer and anvil, fellas! Have at them!" Smiling to himself, he recites in a softer voice,
"Wolves are mighty in a pack
Many fangs do stain
The moonlight red"

The ronin's voice fades from the comms frequencies as he clicks his set off for the meantime. Speaking with sudden inspiration, he declaims to an ethereal audience in the cockpit,
"Where tide and tide together meet
No rock shall stand
Proud and tall"

((Edit!))

And then as he grandiosely finishes his little bit of poetry, he nearly bites on his eloquent tongue as the Locust's missiles hit. The Kamikaze rocks back on its chassis, readily absorbing the blows. Yoshi checks the damage both through the ferroglass and through the onboard computer and sighs to see that the bandit has yet to penetrate the armour.

[RandomLunatic]

(*Reads Flea's shooting.* Are you freakin' kidding me? Also, I already took 3 to the turret, so I am down to 7 there.)

"Uh, just a second sir. I gotta get this guy off me," Justin says as the Flea's lasers strip virtually every kilo of armor from his tank's turret. He curses the MechWarrior virulently in his native Chinese. "You're gonna pay for that," he promises as he turns the tank hard to the right. Perhaps mindful of what had happened to its comrade, the Flea broke hard towards and around behind the tank. Smart. But not enough. Justin angled behind the Flea and accelerated away.

The enemy 'Mech's torso swing around the other way in response. The smalls were already out of range, but the large laser peeled almost half the armor the tank's right flank. Damn! Justin thinks as he again swings the tank right. Time to end this. The enemy frantially tried to get out of the way, but heat build-up had rendered the controls sluggish, and it was pinned between the bluff face and the 25-ton projectile. The J. Edgar cleanly tore the 'Mech's right leg off at the knee.

"Tolja so," Justin says over the general frequency, "I'd love to stay and mock you for a bit, but I got places to go and people to frag."
