==Mission 4== ===BRIEFING=== '''Connor:''' Destruction of the mining camp left little. Some minor stores of ore are being transported to a waiting [[DropShip]]. Our job will be to rendezvous with the convoy and provide additional support to the escort. '''Sorenson:''' Lieutenant, this is Sorenson. We have a situation. The convoy has been ambushed on its way from Madre to the drop site. The escorting ''[[Avatar (OmniMech)|Avatar]]'' reports heavy engagement. He's trying to keep the pirates off the convoy, but requests immediate support. It's beneath the cloud cover, but I think I can guide you over the rough terrain to intercept the convoy here if we move immediately. Then we'll help escort the convoy along the road until out of danger. Find Alan and Dominic. We'll need them for this. And I want to know how pirates slipped so far in towards the Madre crater. Let's move! ===DURING MISSION=== '''Connor:''' Dominic! Alan! Where the hell are you two?! '''Dominic:''' Up to our exhaust ports in pirate patrols. No way we can make rendezvous. '''Connor:''' You and me, Epona. Let's move! Those trucks won't last long. '''Epona:''' Don't forget the ''Avatar'', sir. I know the pilot. '''Connor:''' Making new friends? All right, let's give 'im a hand. '''Werewolf:''' Werewolf to base. Is anyone out there? '''Epona:''' Damocles Two to Werewolf. Hold on, Mike, we're almost there. '''Werewolf:''' Damn, that you, Rhi? Get it in gear! My ''Avatar'' can't take much more of this! '''Werewolf:''' You can run, but you can't hide. (BOOM!) (Werewolf's ''Avatar'' explodes) '''Epona:''' Damn! Bloody pirate! '''Connor:''' Get a grip, Epona! We've got a job to do, here. '''Female Pirate:''' You saw what happened to your boy, FedScums! Get gone before you get the same. '''Epona:''' You're going down, bitch. Count on it. '''Connor:''' Damocles One to convoy. Looks like we took care of the pirates. Proceed along the established route, for now. '''Convoy:''' Acknowledged, Damocles One. Following your lead. Convoy out. '''Convoy:''' Damocles Commando, are you seeing what I'm seeing? '''Epona Rhi:''' Where are they all coming from?! '''Connor:''' Later, Epona. The only question now is where they're going. '''Connor:''' Damocles One to Base. Convoy is secure. '''Corona Base:''' Acknowledged, Damocles One. Too bad about Werewolf. '''Connor:''' Agreed, but we need to hold things together, like he did. '''Epona:''' That's how he'd have wanted it. ===AFTERMATH=== '''Connor:''' I need to talk with the base administrators. If that convoy had arrived earlier, the ore could've been loaded onto the DropShip sooner. Not that I don't have faith in my Commandos, but we're only one lance, and spread too thin. '''Connor:''' It seems odd that the pirates would stage an operation, even build camps so far beneath the cloud cover without a direct line of communication! Our raid against the Comm Station should have slowed them down. '''Connor:''' More disturbing, is the equipment Sorenson's men salvaged off the ''[[Centurion (BattleMech)|Centurion]]''. Not only was it an Inner Sphere 'Mech, but it was equipped with [[Laser#X-Pulse Lasers|X-Pulse Lasers]]. Sorenson has heard of them — experimental [[Inner Sphere]] technology. Not something the [[New Belt Pirates]] should be able to lay their hands on easily, if at all. [[Category: MechWarrior 3 Transcript]]
