In the tubes ready to launch Pax reviews the mission.  All of Road Runner's operation light were green.  He was as ready as he can be.

It was not part of his life plan but it looks like he was destined to be a leader.  Oh how his father would think it a big joke that he was only leading a lance.  Well these were his people and he didn't want to see any of them harmed even though this was now his business.  Accepting money to harm and be harmed.

Shaking himself out of retrospective thoughts he brought to bear the mission at hand.

Lance Com
"Listen up people.  You know the targets, you know the plan.  We drop, hammer what we need to, and get out of town.  Quickly.

Any questions?

Given me a Go when ready.

Traxx go!"

Regina stirs from her nap with a sleepy yawn.

"Is it already time to drop ?
 I was having such a nice dream.", she comments sleepily.

"Its the same plan we always have isnt it?
 Blow up the bad guys?", Regina stretches languidly in the confines of her cockpit.

"The Blakes Angelic Servant of Technology And the Religiously Devout...", Regina paused to take a breath after reciting her selected callsign for the mission, "Give you her blessing.  Let the mayhem commence."

With a lazy flick of her wrist Regina lets her fingers brush against the button that indicated she was ready to drop.  Really there was nothing to do till you hit atmosphere and the ablative cocoon burnt off from re-entry.

Rolling his eyes surpressing an audible sigh, "Reg, was that a GO."

"Was what a go?
 I dont think i have to go.  Thank you.", Reggie comments uncertain on the topic of discussion.

After a moment she really wishes that Pax hadn't mentioned 'going'.  Regina wiggles her hips a little to settle in uncomfortably and makes an effort not to think about the last time she went to the rest room or how much she drank since then.

Avenger fires up his Jenner and looks at the updated status reflecting his new weaponry, satisfied that they and everything else were at nominal settings, Avenger toggled his comm, "Avenger is go!"

14:43, Today: David Crain rolled 5 using 2d6 with rolls of 1,4. Landing check, TN 3+ (I believe).

OOC: will make further rolls once I verify all is well.

Pick your landing hex, THEN roll dice.

"Incoming 'Mechs, Recon lance Typ, alert HQ, call for Reinforcements, they're going for the Tower!"

The lieutenant looked up at his commander and gulped visibly.
"Roger that sir"

Then the commander spoke openly to all channels.
"Mech lance dropping within restricted Airspace, Identify yourselves"

In reply to David Crain (msg # 12):

Technically I did, two minutes before I made the post that was edited.  I just didn't copy it over here.

17:31, Today: David Crain rolled 7 using 2d6 with rolls of 2,5. Piloting roll to land on my feet, TN 5+.

It was a long way down to ground side but the clouds were so pretty that Regina just felt like singing.  Over the comm line Regina could be heard singing something that sounded vaguely juvenile as she passed time pleasantly on the drop.

"The... feet of the locust go ... zoom zoom zoom ... zoom zoom zoom...
 The... feet of the locust go ... zoom zoom zoom... all day long.

The... legs of the locust go ... run run run... run run run...
 The... legs of the locust go ... run run run... all day long.

The... guns of the locust go ... bang bang bang... bang bang bang...
 The... guns of the locust go ... bang bang bang... all day long."

While the singing might have seemed nonsensical to most, every time Regina said run run run, bang bang bang or zoom zoom zomm she did a little burst on the jump pack, letting it rest between.  The timing of the singing kept the burst of thrust going in perfect time for a perfect drop that had Regina nearly perfectly on starting.  Landing just a little harder one leg than the other.

22:40, Today: Regina Arlington rolled 9 using 2d6 with rolls of 6,3. Aim for 1113N - Scatter check tn 4+. (1 Hex Scatter)

22:40, Today: Regina Arlington rolled 12 using 2d6 with rolls of 6,6. Landing check tn 5+. (Standing) (1 point of damage to a leg)

His landing was rougher than the last time he dropped from a ship he hoped his performance on the ground was different and he did well.  Grimacing he glances at the damage done to the leg of his mech and hopes it doesn't cost him Road Runner.

"Oh wow.

 Look at all this attention for me.

 They're making it so easy for me to shoot them up.

 This is so nice of them i almost feel bad.", with that Regina was off and moving to inflict some damage on the Op force.  By no stretch of the imagination could a person really consider Regina right in the head, though one had to admit, she had an uncanny sense for finding the 'blind spots' on the battlefield and making the most of them.  Regina nimbly moves off to avoid the AMC's gunsights.

Moving forward a a little to gain speed she cuts to the left till she's off the bulls eye like an elusive ghost among the tanks.  Once safely out of the AMC's gun sights she turns hard to the left and does what Regina does best.  Blow stuff up.

"I declare that you are all war criminals, and i am here to collect reparations for the blood that has been spilt if not by your hands, then by your overmasters.  Withdraw or you will force my hand to spill your blood.", she comments deadpan serious over the Valkryie's speakers.

Regina was trying to do alot and managed to do a reasonable job of accomplishing most of what she wanted to do.  A couple of missile raked the side of the AMC to rattle the crews confidence.

As a show of force she fired a her lasers into the refueling station damaging it's structure severely.  When it refused to come down, Regina lashed out with a kick that took out the corner support bringing the building down and silencing the weapon fire that was being made by the defensive units inside.

"Refuel station 0709 taken out.", Regina comments to Pax.

(There was a pause)

"Oh wait, i wasnt suppose to do that was i.

 Sorry, you can blow up some of the tanks if you think i was out of line.", Regina comments sounding apologetic and contrite.

Pax could see Reg keeping the vehicles busy so it gave the other units time to remove some of the objectives.  Olaf was to hammer the Northern Refueling station and with David's landing too far North Pax went to dealt some damage to the Control Tower.

"Looking good lancer, keep it up!,  David form up and see if you can help destroy that Tower.  Targeting Control Tower then swinging South to help Reg."

Running up to the building he unloaded his weapons into it before adding a kick for good measure.  The building was tough but he had weakened it.

It seemed to Regina that the Op Force were not going to take her threats seriously, and while she knew the Light of Blake was with her, she also knew that he favored the those who knew when to stay and when to go.

"Should i stay or should i go now...
 If i stay there will be trouble...
 If i go it will double...", she half commented half sang to herself, as she triggers jump jets to breeze over the ruins of Refuel Station 0709 and put herself in position for the next refuel station to take out.

Regina
Jump - J5 - +3 Def Mod - 0307se

[I lost initiative, so i plotted a move, this is on the presumption that Regina is standing and capable of triggering her jump jets at the start of the next turn, which seems likely.]

As the 'Mech warriors closed in on the base, the base responded by opening fire on the warriors, first the north eastern infantry position, the control tower and the northern refueling station opened fire on pax, in a barrage of missiles and Machinegun fire, leaving him more blinded, than actully harmed.

Then the southern infantry positions, and both southern refueling stations alsso opened fire, they however targeted the much slower moving Regina

However, then one of the Refueling stations goes out in a Fiery inferno, as regina's Lazers ignite one of the fuel tanks, sending thunder echoing off of the mountain to the east.

"Waste not.
 Want not."

Regina sticks the barrel of her Medium lasers into the side of the building and triggers the weapons into foundation of the building to super heat the supports into slag making the structure unstable and ready to come down.

There's an audible creak, and the wisest of the infantry flee the structure just as Regina's Valkyrie swings around to take out a huge chunk of the sagging frame causing the building the come down makinga spectacular mess.

In a burst of speed, the Avenger enters the map and weaves between the buildings to end his movement, muttering to himself about the delay caused by the drifting in his drop.  He is quite determined to make up for lost time.

edit: new move if Delta allows it (no firing will change, just how I get to my final hex)
First hex entered is 0901.  Move 5S

First hex entered will be 0601.
Move: 2S, L1, 1SE, R1, 1S, L1, 2SE, R1, 1S.  End in 0906S.

He sets his sights on the immobile building and opens fire on the control tower:
4 (Base) + 1 (Walk) + 0 (Range) -4 (Immobile) -2 (Pulse) = TN 1+ (TN -1+ for pulse)
Auto-hit with TN1+ or better, not bothering with die roller.
Kick to follow if I remain standing.

Total damage to Control Tower: 16
Heat = 1 (Walk) +4 (Pulse) + 6 (2x med) - 10 (HS) = 1 Net
