Operation 3, Mission 1[edit]
BRIEFING[edit]
Sorenson: Intel considered Operations Area Three the hard stretch. The plan called for three teams in here. Right now, it's us. Keith Andrew is still somewhere to the north, and hoping to rejoin.
Sorenson: We'll hit Team Four's mission area first. Then we strike north, through the areas originally slated for Teams Five and Six, moving up through the open territory to hit the city of Durgen and the spaceport just beyond it.
Sorenson: Okay, Mission Three Tac One: On the left side of the map is a Clan training area. Run data feed.
Sorenson: We're sitting near these ruins.
Sorenson: This facility commands the Clan training field.
Sorenson: This gap to the left leads to the headquarters building for the training center.
Sorenson: This tunnel is your best place to cross into the next area.
Sorenson: The road follows up to this tunnel – our jump-off point for the next mission.
Sorenson: Your objectives: the headquarters at Able, the tunnel at Baker, and the tunnel at Charlie. We have detected fixed emplacements here. We have no data on current 'Mech and vehicular threats in the area, but they're probably going to be heavier than we've met so far.
Sorenson: I'm trying to direct Keith Andrew into our path, but I think he's too far north to link up this early. Anything you see is likely a target.
DURING MISSION[edit]
Sorenson: Okay, enemy detected.
Epona: Time to dance, group.
Clanner Gamma: Enemy forces sighted! They're…They are here.
Male Jaguar: Now? From the southwest? Stravag! I am returning to the area immediately! We will hold them, Star Captain Drake.
Clanner Gamma: (upon destruction) I can't…cannot… (static)
Male Jaguar: Tawna's Avatar is down. I will hold past the bridge. Find Osis, and patch me through.
Sorenson: Remember, Lance Leader, this Star Captain Drake is lingering on the other side, waiting for you.
Male Jaguar: They've bypassed this post! We are sixty kilometers out! Hold them, Star Captain!
Star Captain Drake: This is Star Captain Drake, broadcasting on open frequencies. I am blocking your path. Meet me in single combat, if you dare, Freebirth.
Star Captain Drake: Not bad, Freebirth, but not great, either.
Sorenson: Epona, you were saying something about a dance?
Epona: I take it back.
AFTERMATH[edit]
Sorenson: Sorry, our intel is not the best anymore. Those holograph projectors came as a complete surprise.
Sorenson: Star Colonel Ratache Osis is apparently leading a force of his own in search of us. The records recovered from the training facility show that they've graduated the manpower, but can't assign them 'Mechs, because they no longer have a 'Mech factory. Still, expect a heavier concentration of enemy forces the further we penetrate north.
