December 3152 ----------------------------------------- Snow Raven Watch Deployment Orders ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ From: Loremaster Klaus Harper To: Star Colonel Fitzwilliam Darcy Date: 21 December 3152 Your mission is to explore the Outworlds Wastes to locate and destroy pirate forces. Prepare your expeditionary team for immediate departure. Executive Officer's Log, Bennet's Badgers ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ It is finally the day. We're assembling Bennet's Badgers in a parade formation to give Lizzy and Darcy a sendoff as they deploy. The Snow Ravens will be joining us before we head out on patrol together. Scenario - Sendoff ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The R-team is preparing to depart when a pirate raid develops. **Defender** Elizabeth Bennet, Star Colonel Fitzwilliam Darcy, Jane Bennet, and Star Captain Charles Bingly must be included in this scenario. Lydia Bennet, two points of standard Elementals, and a heavy BattleMech recovery vehicle are also included. Additional members of Bennet's Badgers and Expeditionary Star Alpha may be included to reach the desired scenario size. **Attacker** Select an equivalent BV (PV) of `Pirates from the Master Unit List `_ to match the defender's force. This force may have at most 1 heavy BattleMech and may contain combat vehicles. **Map** Select 1 hilly desert map for every 4 units in the scenario, rounded up. Jordan Wais has thin atmosphere and 1,14 g. Use the rules from *BattleTech: Tactical Operations Advanced Rules* for these conditions. Objectives """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" Track the BV destroyed by each side; the unit to land the final shot gets credit. If Star Commander Charles Bingley and Jane Bennet both target a pirate unit before it is destroyed, then the BV for that unit counts for both sides, no matter which force destroys that unit. Score Lore Points for the following accomplishments * Snow Raven units destroy more BV than Bennet's Badgers (3 pts) * Star Commander Charles Bingley and Jane Bennet both target the same unit (1 pt each) * Named character dies (-3 pts) * Scale your Lore Points by the ratio (BV of Star Captain Fitzwilliam Darcy, Star Commander Charles Bingley, Jane Bennet, and Elizabeth Bennet) / (BV of defenders used in the scenario) Special Rules """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" Pirate forces will withdraw once half of their units have been immobilized or destroyed.
