Let's Play Together: GM'd Battletech via MegaMek XI

NickAragua · Post by **NickAragua** » Mon Feb 01, 2021 11:48 am

Round 4->5:

Two of our hovercraft, the Condor and Savannah Master clear the battlefield.

"Break west!" Leraje orders, seeing the missiles lift off from the Naga's shoulder racks, shoving the Black Knight's control stick to the left and taking off as fast as the mech can go. Xwraith joins in, timing the Catapult's landing to wind up close enough to the Dragonfly to attempt to give it a solid kick. Two of Xwraith's lasers score hits on the light mech, taking armor off the left leg.

Leraje joins in on the Dragonfly, hitting the nimble mech with the Black Knight's large pulse laser and a pair of mediums. A PPC from the Loki hits our Black Knight in the left leg, causing the armor to go from green to yellow instantly.

Our Grasshopper breaks north, firing at the Loki. A PPC blast grazes the right torso, melting some armor off of there, but the rest of our retreating mech's shots go wide. Said Loki also takes multiple shots from our disabled hovertank, pockmarking its armor with SRM blasts. The Grasshopper eats a laser blast from the Naga, and the Dragonfly's pulse lasers stitch across its rear. The computer cheerfully announces a rear center torso armor breach.

After being stomped on by the Naga, the crew of the LTV-4 have had it and bail out.

The missiles look big and impressive, but they're slow and our mechs avoid them.

Wolf grits her teeth, gets the Warhammer up off the ground again, and moves southwest, engaging the Mad Cat with short-range weapons, thinking to at least stay inside the minimum range of its twin LRM-20 racks. The Clan mech has opted to stand still, making it an easy target, so lasers, machine guns and SRMs flay and blast armor off the 75-ton mech. A PPC shot from Leraje's Black Knight flies over the Mad Cat as well, but that's not much help. The Clan mech responds by firing most of its lasers and an LRM salvo blasting large chunks of armor off the Warhammer and breaching the left torso armor, taking out a heat sink. This time, our mechwarrior keeps the mech upright.

"How the hell do they get their long-range missiles so accurate that close?" Our mechwarrior wonders aloud to nobody in particular.

Battlefield state:

Spoiler:

Air traffic update:
"Good shot, Strike Three. Search and Rescue, mobilize at marked coordinates and retrieve Strike-Two. Three, you're with me. Let's give the ground pounders some support."

The Naga and Loki move north along the eastern side of the corridor, the Naga looking like it's intending to stomp the Pegasus, it's missile racks pointing skyward.

The Mad Cat, seeing our aerospace fighters coming in, backs up a little to limit rear armor exposure to them, while the Dragonfly leaps forward, keeping up with the Grasshopper and landing in some dense woods.

The Vulture continues retreating.

Unit status update:
Grasshopper - center torso rear armor breach
Warhammer - left torso armor breach, heat sink destroyed (down to 22 heat sinks)

Objective update:
Condor, Savannah Master escaped (2/5 units escaped)

Air support (a Lucifer and Starfire) will be available for air strikes this round. The angle of approach for our aerospace fighters means it'll be impossible for them to attack the Mad Cat or the Vulture.

Nominate two targets, one for the Starfire, one for the Lucifer:
[] Loki
[] Naga
[] Dragonfly

Movement Modifier:
Vulture: +1
Loki: +1
Mad Cat: +1
Dragonfly: +5 (jumping + heavy woods)
Naga: +2

I'm assuming that the movement modifiers apply the same to our aircraft as to us. If so, seems like it makes the most sense to focus fire on the target easiest to hit, with the hopes of crippling at least one of our pursuers (and the one that's farthest north currently).

A couple questions. First, can I run through the Black Knight's space? I'm assuming yes since he's moving at the same time?

Second, what's the deal with sprinting? I know you can't fire if sprinting, but how much additional movement do you get?

El Guapo · Post by **El Guapo** » Mon Feb 01, 2021 12:16 pm

For now I'll say xwraith will run to 0316, which I believe takes 5 movement due to elevation changes. Torso twist to the right if needed, and fire both LRMs at the Loki. If it's possible to hit the Dragonfly with medium lasers and if it doesn't cause me to sink heat, then I might as well, but I'm pretty sure that between the Dragonfly's crazy to hit modifier and secondary target penalties that's probably a 13+ or 14+ to hit.

Sprinting gets you 2x your walk MP and makes you easier to hit.

Why does sprinting make you easier to hit?

If the Warhammer backed up one space, would that give it any cover? It looks like it has no real issues with hitting me regardless, so cover seems better than trying to move more. I assume from the elevation of the madcat the buildings at height 2 most likely would not give any cover?

The "fluff" explanation is that, instead of concentrating on normal evasive maneuvers, the mechwarrior is focusing on moving as fast as possible in a predictable pattern.

Backing up one space would prevent the Mad Cat from seeing you at all - there's a special case for determining LOS where, if you're right up against a hill/building that's as tall as you are, it prevents all LOS to you. So, in this case, you could hang out where you are, or back up one space, and the Mad Cat can't target you.

Head towards 0113 via the best possible route. Let me know what hex I'll end up in, since I'd like to set some woods on fire.

ASFs to fire on Naga and Hellbringer.

Captainwolfer · Post by **Captainwolfer** » Mon Feb 01, 2021 5:08 pm

I would focus solely on the Loki, its a bit more damaged and is easier to hit than the Naga for our ASFs

The problem is that if I disappear the Mad Cat will LRM the others and they need to escape. Is there anywhere within move range that gives me some cover but not total cover?

The building that's in the way will collapse if you step on it, so no. Backing up to 0427 is an option if you want to take a hit on your right side.

0214. Set 0314 or 0413 (if possible) on fire. Priority to 0413.

El Guapo · Post by **El Guapo** » Wed Feb 03, 2021 12:29 pm

That's a good idea. So if my secondary medium laser shots on the Dragonfly are 12+ or worse, I'll use any extra heat to fire medium lasers to set the forests at 0314 or 0413 on fire.

Round 5->6:

Wolf backs up, continuing to pour weapons fire at the Mad Cat, the Warhammer's remaining PPC, medium lasers and SRMs gouging armor off the enemy mech. The clanner returns the favor with a pair of blasts from its arm-mounted lasers [], following up with a full salvo from its shoulder-mounted missile pods. Wolf's alarms scream as the cockpit heat shoots up - missiles blow out all the left torso weapons in addition to several hits on the engine shielding. Our mechwarrior manages to keep the mech upright, but it can't take any more damage. The Mad Cat rocks a bit as well, but the mechwarrior keeps it upright effortlessly.

Our aerospace fighters fly overhead, and are targeted by the Vulture, which uses its remaining left-side weapons, and the Naga, which aims its missile racks skyward and lets fly. The aerospace fighters themselves inflict major damage on the Loki - the Lucifer nails an ammo bin in its right torso blows, sending the arm spinning off into the distance, then the Starfire comes in for a follow-up, blasting the 65-ton machine center of mass. The mech's heat readings spike, and then it simply shuts down in place. The Starfire gets nailed by both of the huge missiles, a bunch of pulse laser blasts and some LRMs - the aero jock is unable to maintain control of the aircraft and it slams into the ground. Xwraith is somewhat distracted watching the exchange and the Catapult's LRMs whiff.

As a bonus, the Loki misses its shots on our escaping Harasser. In the mechwarrior's defense, it's a little hard to aim when half your mech goes flying off. The Naga gives the Pegasus a good stomp, and the crew decides to bail out as well.

Leraje moves north, lighting a cluster of trees on fire in an effort to generate some smoke, while getting a couple of glancing hits on the Dragonfly with the Black Knight's pulse lasers. Said mech engages the back of our Grasshopper, severely weakening the center torso structure, though, luckily, not hitting any major components.

Raw data:

Spoiler:

Battlefield state:

Spoiler:

"Holy shit, I'm alive!" comes a transmission from the Starfire. "Let me see if I can do a vertical liftoff here... is that anti-aircraft unit still there?"

The Mad Cat moves forward to the edge of the wall it's perched on, angling to the west to keep an eye on Wolf's beat-up Warhammer, but obviously wanting to take some pot shots at the units escaping to the north.

The Naga moves to take the Loki's place, missile launchers swiveling back and forth between targets.

Wolf briefly considers her options. On the one hand, the Warhammer has basically had it. All the torso armor, except the center torso, is gone, and the internal structural integrity is about to go as well - the next incoming salvo will likely cause an engine shut down or blow the mech up entirely. The Mad Cat will likely be able to continue to take long-range shots at our mechs until they exit the area, although it will be at long range, and our escaping mechs have popped some smoke to obscure line of sight, to an extent. The three options are basically "fight to the death", "dump ammo and fight to the (hopefully not) death" or "bail out".

The Dragonfly's operator has had enough getting shot by pulse lasers in the back (even if they were just grazing hits) and zips across the canyon to the northeast.

Objective update:
Warhammer crippled (4/10 units crippled)
Loki mission-killed (2/5 units crippled or destroyed)

Unit status update:
Warhammer has taken two engine hits, one heat sink hit (-11 heat capacity), is down a PPC, medium + small laser, MG.
Starfire has crash-landed, pilot may attempt a vertical takeoff

Movement Modifiers:
Mad Cat: +1
Naga: +1, +2 if attack comes from level 1 or below through hexes 1315 or 1316
Dragonfly: +5
Loki: lol
Vulture: +1

Warhammer course of action:
[] Continue engaging Mad Cat (full firepower, but fairly suicidal)
[] Continue engaging Mad Cat, dump MG/SRM ammo (limited to walking speed, reduced firepower, hit in rear arc will result in ammo explosion)
[] Bail out

Starfire course of action:
[] Stay grounded, that Naga is *right there*
[] Take off, maybe the Naga has something else it wants to shoot at

I recommend trying to take out the Dragonfly (Viper). Our mechs seem to be in okay-ish shape aside from our Warhammer, we may be able to take out the Dragonfly, then the Naga, then pile on the Mad Cat.

Nick, shouldn't the enemy have 3 units counting as crippled/destroyed, since the Vulture is withdrawing?

I think the Warhammer is combat ineffective but if the pilot thinks otherwise I’ll toast to his memory.

If any targets of opportunity come up for my plucky little Falcon, I’ll fire at it.

El Guapo · Post by **El Guapo** » Thu Feb 04, 2021 12:17 pm

So with the Harrasser leaving we just need to get two mechs out, right? Probably the Grasshopper and at least one of the Black Knight and/or Catapult?

I'm figuring xwraith will jump to 0113 and use the mountains for cover, and then next turn start running / sprinting north.

Given that the Mad Cat has already threatened to take him into slavery, Wolf had better prove his bravery. He'll dump ammo and see if he can get in a lucky shot before the Warhammer disintegrates. And that will be one more round for the others to escape.

Vote Results:

Spoiler:

Round 6->7:

Wolf steadies the Warhammer, gritting her teeth again, whacks the shutdown override button and lets loose with the mech's remaining weapons. The Mad Cat takes a couple of pot shots at our Grasshopper with its (really extended-range) lasers, but the PPC hit and pitter patter of the SRMs and MG rounds already loaded into the launcher throws its aim off. The clan mechwarrior blasts our Warhammer in return with its "short" range weapons (a couple of lasers and the machine guns), and our mech gives out as the engine shuts down. "Good luck guys. Hope I bought you enough time." our mechwarrior says to nobody in particular.

Our Grasshopper manages to avoid weapons fire from the Dragonfly, rotating to quickly snap off a PPC shot at the light mech, but that effort is impeded as the Naga fires its missiles directly at our 70-tonner, both missiles scoring hits, leveling the nearby woods as well. Armor holds, mostly, although the PPC is disabled before it can fire, along with the attached heat sink. Our mechwarrior squeezes the trigger several times before being able to make the connection between the computer reporting "PPC destroyed" and the weapon not tossing out lightning like it normally does. Kwan tilts the control stick to the right, straightening the Grasshopper out and setting up for another jump.

Leraje scores another glancing hit on the Dragonfly, taking some armor off the right leg with a pulse laser, then uses the Black Knight's medium lasers to start another fire, increasing the amount of smoke in between our mechs and the clanners. Xwraith lobs some LRMs over the hill at the Naga as a form of suppression fire, but that doesn't do much.

"Coming around for another pass, ETA 20 seconds". Our Lucifer reports.

Raw data:

Spoiler:

Battlefield state:

Spoiler:

The Naga moves north, obviously intending to take another pot shot at our Grasshopper before our mechwarrior clears the field.

The guy in the Starfire looks at the approaching 80-ton mech with some concern, gingerly moving his hands over the controls to shut down targeting radar and any other system that may indicate that the aerospace fighter is still flight-worthy.

The Mad Cat, sparing a brief glance to make sure our Warhammer is truly down, moves north, attempting to catch up to our escaping units, scraping some pavement with its clawed feet. "Well fought, mechwarrior. Now to finish the rest of your compatriots off."

The guy in the Dragonfly appears to have the drop on us.

Objective Update:
Harasser escaped (3/5 units escaped)

Movement modifiers:
Dragonfly: Unknown (ace), probably +5
Mad Cat: +1
Naga: +2

Starfire:
[] Keep playing possum

El Guapo · Post by **El Guapo** » Fri Feb 05, 2021 11:17 am

xwraith will run straight ahead to 0109, torso twist to the right. Plan on either firing at the Dragonfly or the Naga depending upon which has the better to hit chances after the Dragonfly moves.

Also if I have heat to spare I'll fire medium laser(s) at the forest in 0409 to set it on fire.

As for the Starfly, isn't the Naga looking straight at it right now? It should move as soon as it's safe to do so...but doesn't seem like that's right now? But I'd leave that up to the pilot's call.
