IS Forces attempt to Raid a Clan facility for a memory core. The IS forces were expecting a Clan garrison force, unfortunately for them they found a front line force spoiling for a fight!
We ran two IS lances +1 vs. a Star. The object was for the IS forces to capture a memory core from a base and return to the Dropships.
IS Dropships touchdown.
IS forces on the move, a Daishi A crests the hill far off in the distance.
The rest of the IS force move out.
The Daishi A fires down range on the the IS forces moving up the board, from its vantage point it has complete dominance of the field. A Shadow Cat manages to get behind the IS forces and slows the advance. At this point the IS forces have already lost a Shootist.
The IS Assualt mechs finally crest the hill and put some damage on the Daishi.
The Cauldron Born blocks the pass and stalls the IS forces. The Marauder II takes over 140 points of damage and goes out with a critical to the heavy gauss!
The Daishi is finally destroyed but by this time the IS force is down to three mechs. The Black Knight makes it to the target building but is heavily damaged.
The Cauldron Born finishes of the Black Knight while the other two IS mechs desperately trying to draw it away.
The remaining two clan mechs savage the remaining two IS mechs.
We called the game at this point as the IS forces had no possible means to complete their mission.
In the end the IS forces destroyed 3 clan mechs at a cost of 9 of their own.
