Planet Connaught
Late November 3091

Sensing weakness in the Free Worlds League's ongoing civil war, the Terran Hegemony deploys "peacekeepers" to "stabilize the border." Industrial worlds like Irian and Wasat were primary targets, but the stiffest resistance was encountered on Connaught.

Scenario

Terran forces attempt to wrest Connaught away from its defenders in a daring night assault.

Attacker

The attackers are elements of the Terran Hegemony's regular 166th Brigade. In Megamek, construct a combined-arms force following the TH force composition rules described below.

In Simple Resolution, the TH force is 10.00 FP.

Defedner

The defenders are elements of the Connaught Republican Guards. In MegaMek, this is a Regular 'Mech force equal to 80% of the TH forces battle value (counting cyberware BV modifiers). The Connaught Guards do not have access to Clan technology.

In Simple Resolution, the FWL force is 8.00 FP.

Special Conditions

Night Assault: Use Full Moon Night visibility.

TH Force Composition: The TH troops are front-line ground forces, and each unit deployed must have one or more of the following characteristics:

• Clan Technology (limited to 20% of the total deployed force)
• C3i
• Stealth Armor (for battle armor, Mimetic armor fulfills this requirement)

TH Clan equipment is primarily Wolf Dragoons and Nova Cat in origin, as well as Inner Sphere and Celestial Omni designs with Clan pods.

Cyberware: 25% of the TH force's MechWarriors have Buffered VDNI (and no other) implants.

Scoring

In Simple Resolution, standard invasion rules apply (first to win three simple resolution rolls wins)

In MegaMek, each side earns a number of points equal to the percentage of enemy BV destroyed.

• If the winner's score is no more than 24% above the loser's, the battle is a draw
• If the winner's score is 25-49% above the loser's, that side wins a marginal victory
• If the winner's score is 50% or more above the loser's, that side wins a decisive victory

... or at least tried to. :P Apparently the displacement from my Jet Wash sent him crashing to the ground and I finished him off after that. Trying to hit those stealth and mimetic armors was a biatch. Lucky for me, effective use of ECM brought the BV from this battle to nearly even proportions. I started with 2 ECM units, I ended with 2 ECM units.
