I'm wading into the middle of things... I can hold my own, but if you can keep the bugs off my rear (light mechs firing into rear armor), and the meat bags away from my feet (infantry), we'll torch the bigger guys and we can all go get a beer...
I'm going to try to firecracker the Trenchbucket. Squishy armor and lots of ammo. If we can quickly knockout the Trebuchet, Quickdraw and Longbow, we can concentrate fire and mop up the rest. If the Victor can get a good AC20 shot on the Ostol we could break it down, but otherwise it is likely to zombie while the arty and bugs chew us up.

"Pcmcp here, took an upper arm structure hit, and I'm bleeding armor, but I'm still standing and my guns are still fine.
Trying to line up a decent shot on the second Quickdraw, the nearer of the two. Watch my back. Mycroft, can you put him down if I screw this up? I don't want him jumping behind me..."

| "Mycroft here. I took some artillery fire to my shoulder, but nothing major. I was just about to suggest we focus down that Quickdraw and take advantage of its thin armor! Glad to hear we are on the same page. I will swing out west again in case he tries to jump behind. In the meantime he's about to chew on some autocannon rounds; I'm going full alpha on him!"

"If we are gonna concentrate our fire, we need somebody to call the shots!
The laser hover platoons are both smoking pretty bad. Let's focus them down. Also the longbow has parked, so it could be an easy target. Lastly that Quickdraw upfront and to the east is at least a little scraped up.
No matter what though I am stuck at long range for any of my targets. So my best bet is the longbow or the laser platoon."
[ooc]I took a shot with the AC20 at the SRM platoon hoping to maybe 1-shot them. the MLs and the SRM4 is all headed at the Laser Platoon to hopefully finish them off.

| Thanks, that would be a big help. I’ve definitely struggled with that so far. I’m constantly having to research all the table top rules cuz my recollection from 20 years ago is not as reliable as I thought it would be.

| This is Atsuo Jin from the Grasshopper. I am sending 5 LRMs and a Lg Laser at the second Quickdraw and since they are in range, my 4 Md Lasers at the MG platoon. Moving to close with the the Longbow at a high rate of giddyup!
