Who are we waiting on? I think we're missing a pilot-post.

As you are deploying John calls out to everyone else, "Target one is B1. Once we get that down, we both eliminate one of the enemy high-ground camps, and we'll have a good spot to snipe from." To which Irvine replies, "Roger that, commencing signature masking and electronic monitoring. Stay close and in the bubble now." Then Harald pipes up with "If B1 is our first main target, I could keep our right flank clear of enemies by clearing up camp A1."

Pilot name: John Freemech
Description: An energetic man with a fearsome beast of a goatee.
You lurch over to a trailer and ride on down the exit ramp, before taking a good look out towards A2, unfortunately this area has heavy Nanite pollution and dust storms, and you can't make out anything at this distance.
Mech: Starbanger

Mech: White Flash


Arcalane
>Irvine: Prowl on out without a trailer, since Delta can keep pace with the trailers on foot. Start jamming enemy sensors once we're closer, and monitor any comms chatter. If they spot us, switch over to jamming their comms instead so they can't radio home.
Pilot Name: Irvine Callahan
Description: A lanky, tanned American pilot who lost his right eye before joining the mercs. It doesn't seem to have negatively affected his piloting skills. Calm and confident.

After starting up, you walk out of the Mechbay and engage your Hybrid Electronic Suite to severely impair any sensors that the Reavers might have before heading towards A1.
Mech: Bloodhound "Delta"


If you want to wait for everyone to arrive at the same time [go slower than your top speed] then say so
[the little orange crosses represent roughly where each group of mechs is]

John, Harald and Markus are all still at the exit ramp, while Barqa, Johann and Irvine are headed towards A1.

Still heading towards A1 Irvine shouts over the comms to Barqa and Johann, "Easy there you two, this isn't a race to see who can get the most kills." Barqa ingores him, but Johann takes heed and replies, "Let's get an idea of where each enemy is. Burqa and I can act as shock troops and just cut through all the nearest ones before they have a chance to really react, so if all our ranged and indirect types target the enemies that are further away, we should be able to sync up and nearly wipe them all out in one fell swoop. Even if we don't get every last one, the blow will at least scare the ♥♥♥♥ out of whoever is left alive." to which Markus responds, "Sounds like a plan."

Ignoring Irvine and Johann, you charge ahead, and reach A1 before anyone else, spot several light vehicles, some tanks and three large tents, you fire off a pair of missiles, but one veers off to the side at just the last moment and the other is shot down by an extremely lucky spray of machinegun fire, shortly after your missiles explode three NTs spring up from under the tents.

COMBAT MAP:

Barqa is at A1, while John, Harald, Markus, Johann and Irvine are getting close to A1.

Neither of you have fancy computers etc. so you're unable to do this, also you're currently too far away to be able to charge them, and it'll take, 2/3 turns to get into melee range.

Also, It'll take 2 turns for everyone else to arrive if they stick together, but Cave and Rag could arrive next turn if they went ahead.
