Mission 9: Persona Non Grata

Date: June 3063

Location: Menkalinan FWL (Class C)


Menkalinan is an unremarkable world in the FWL.  Its primary export is lumber.   It was recently restored to the FWL as part of operation Guerrero.    The planet has its local militia but no name units, and no battlemech forces are stationed here.   Given the present state of the Chaos March, the Planetary Governor has hired you to shoot some trouble for him.


The battle in Wanrong was brief and bloody.  You can out on top, but only just.  It was attrition that did it, because the repair bill for the man-o-war is going to be high.  It feels great to get another one over on the Mean Ultramarine.  Joy is short lived however, as you begin to hear rumors that Mr. Teal is having dinner with the governor.  You bribe one of the governor's stewards and find out that Mr. Teal is trying to muscle in on your contract.  It seems like you're going to have to force him off world.

Hey Kam,

 

I see on the timeline I somehow have a third Cyrano en route. Pretty sure that’s an error. I should only have two Cyranos from my one successful GoFind attempt.

you did not provide a mod for the stealth.

Go Find Menshen (Cost 20)
Base percentage for a class C planet is 0.7
Menshen is a capellan mech on a recently conquered but poor planet - apply 0.2 modified for non-local
The final go find percentage is 0.5
Roll is 80.  Go Find Fails.

Buy 2 manticores & assign.
Modify Manticores
target number for modification is 4 (3 base +1 for class c)
ammo bins are auto success.  on each there are 2 rolls 9,7/9,4 success
2 months to complete
You don't have enough ammo to fill one of the manticores:
The following ammo was used:
LRM10-SMOKE:3 of Avail: 0/12
SRM6-INFERNO:6 of Avail: 0/15

Buy quickdraw & assign
target number for modification is 4 (3 base +1 for class c)
there are 2 rolls, one for each laser 3,5,6 - you failed the first one, one reroll months to complete is 2.

Yeah, and I still forgot to do stuff. I meant to grab that ammo and attach the Stealth mod. Oh well. Next time.

I’m glad I finally bought a couple vees. I suppose on some level I hoped against hope my cool vehicles would eventually come. Blind point. It was high time I put my idle crews to good use.

 

The Stealth should have full ammo bins.

 

How did my Flashman expend ammo? That made me smile. 😊

There was probably a space in the field. Google docs/scripts has some ‘limitations’.

I need to do some additional work on it, but mostly the input parts are a pain to deal with.
