SITUATION
18 July 3050
Kinja Flats, Alyina
Tamar March, Federated Commonwealth
During Clan Jade Flacon’s invasion, one of the planets to be taken in the Fourth Wave was Alyina. Defending the planet was the Tenth Lyran Guards RCT, including a BattleMech battalion commanded by the Federated Commonwealth’s Heir Apparent Victor Steiner-Davion. Once it became clear that the planet could not be held, the commander of the RCT began making moving troops to withdraw from the planet. The main spaceport was located at Mar Negro, overlooking the ocean.
In order to buy time to move the RCT’s armor, infantry, and support elements, Steiner-Davion bagan a limited counter offensive against the Jade Falcon troops. While normally this meant fighting by way of ambushing the Clan BattleMechs, on occasion attacking a prepared position was necessary.
West of the Mar Negro location Jade Falcon troops had dug in to the highlands and halted their offensive in order to bring up supplies. This was absolutely necessary before attacking the defenders at Mar Negro. Unsure where the RCT would attack from, the Falcon Commander ordered each of his Cluster commanders to establish picket lines and reinforce them with independent stars of BattleMechs. The Federated Commonwealth troops would ambush patrols, and raid positions when possible, and when the opportunity presented itself, disrupting supply convoys
On the morning of 18 July, a company of medium BattleMechs from the Tenth Lyran Guards had been moving into position to raid and disrupt an area of pickets, when they accidentally encountered a Jade Falcon Nova moving to a new position.

It's a tough scenario, and more often than not it comes down to a Last Man Standing issue at the outcome, but what's the point of playing if it's easy for one side or the other?
