Mech Commander 2/Covert Ops-Orbital

Covert Ops: Orbital

BRIEFING

Eliza Cho: We are pleased, Sang-wei. Most pleased. You destroyed the Davion forces almost as well as you destroyed my son’s.

Jason Cho: You compliment him for killing my men?!!

Eliza: Mind your temper, my son. To the mercenary, war is a business, and on Carver V, business is good, isn’t it? The civil war we engineered will cleanse our planet and fill your pockets.

Jason: I have sent your Tactical Officer my plans for your next operations. Meanwhile, I will be leading the primary attacks myself.

Diaz: I got their instructions, sir. I’ve also got this wideband transmission. It’s been broadcast over and over for the last hour.

Baxter: The bickering between noble Houses is costing us our friends and families. Our planet has changed hands too often. We are no longer Liao or FedCom or Steiner or Davion. We will not be bullied, imprisoned, or traded off like winnings in a game. Citizens of Carver V, join us! Fight for your independence!

Diaz: I know what you’re thinking, sir, but there’s no money in it. Let’s get back to work.

Diaz: Infiltrate behind enemy lines and disable Orbital Guns protecting Steiner air space.

Commander:

We have a rare opportunity before us that requires your expertise. One of our deep operatives in the Marko Sector has reported that a routine guard rotation has gone awry, and the sector’s main defenses are delayed for a span of ten hours. There are four Orbital Guns in the area. If they can be disabled, Steiner’s air space will be vulnerable to our satellites and DropShips.

This sector is deep into Steiner territory, and the Orbital Guns will not allow a DropShip to land; however, we can airlift a small tonnage of ‘Mechs to this location, enough to deal with the handful of defenders currently guarding the Orbital Guns. Once the Orbital Guns have been destroyed, we will have a DropShip ready to extract your task force.

Honor and Xin Sheng.

Tactical Officer Notes: Sir, remember this mission is behind enemy lines. That means we’ll get no air support whatsoever, so our deployment team is on its own. I suggest taking a jump-capable ‘Mech; we’ll have to rely on capture tactics and mobility rather than brute force.

DURING MISSION

Liao Operative: I'm uploading the location of all Orbital Guns in this area, along with several secondary objectives that may help you with your mission. Now listen, one of the guns is a Mobile Orbital Gun. It could be anywhere. That's all I got.
