Finally, my lance chased down the invaders from behind, even as the militia mechs engaged them from the front, and we slaughtered them, finally winning the mission and the flashpoint.

While my Grasshopper is incredibly dangerous up close (max alpha strike damage is over 350 points), it needs to close the range first.

The two heavies went north to attack the base, while the other two cut east and try to catch the attackers from behind.įor the most part, that worked, as the militia, with my two medium mechs, held off any attacks. But when one of the attack mechs seems to have gotten through, I decided to split my lance. The attack lance were light mechs, and I let the militia handle them, and they did pretty well. Turns out, there's an attack lance, and a defense lance, plus any reinforcement lances that drops later. Sent the lance up the ramp, just as enemy mechs approached. I landed with Orion (sniper-75t), Grasshopper (brawler-70t), Griffin (generalist-55t) and Blackjack (fire support-45t). GOt it done, but it was touch and go for a while. The big doozy mission was an attack/defend battle where my medium/heavy lance (240 ton total, none heavier than 75 ton) have to fight off up to 5 Steiner lances, and I just have the militia lance to help me. Only Catapult (C4) got hit, no time to repair it. Helped two militia lances deal with invaders is easy enough.
