#Battletech LGS living campaign🧵! Mission is to get 3 objectives from 3 trucks coming through a mountain road - 1 may have intel on a rebellious Canopian military leader. We set 2 minefields secretly on the road, and prep by predicting where the trucks may stop (based on known movement speed). - ThreadSky

I finally purchased my favorite 3025 heavy - a Grasshopper. The Red Seal Mercenary Collective (the players) consists of myself, a Jenner F, Javelin F, Trebuchet, Thunderbolt, and Raven 2X. Canopian Rebels (GM OpFor) first 2 trucks appear with a Shadowhawk, Wolfhound, and Hunchback 4P escorting them.

First truck stops perfectly on a minefield - immediatley destroyed but the objective jettisons backwards and up the mountain. We rush to retrieve it before the enemy can - but only mechs with hand actuators can grab it.

Raven and Jenner cover the objective while my Grasshopper is on the way. The final truck appears, along with an Orion, Firestarter, and Griffin. Our Trebuchet holds back for fire support, and our Javelin waits - hes on backup objective retrieval duty. Our Tbolt holds off the rebels.

Obj. in hand, my Grasshopper jumps to the extraction edge (right side of pic) to secure it. Jenner shifts back to help the second line, while Raven and I try to skirt around the rebels. Our secondline focus fire and destroy the 2nd truck. Rebels take some damage but not our primary focus.

Rebels shift backwards to focus me down and take the objective. Our Javelin scoops up the 2nd obj. and rushes to extract it - shadowhawk hot on his tail. Meanwhile the last truck, already damaged, hits the 2nd minefield and thelast objective lands near the right side mountain.

My Grasshopper and Javelin get off the field - securing 2 objectives. While we are gone and heading back to the fight, the last objective is hard to reach: Our Jenner has no hands, Trebuchet is too far up the mountain, and Tbolt is slow. Our Raven stays on their backline and hassles the rebel lights
