'''Anna Hung''' was a [[Solaris VII]] [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]] that has always fought in the [[Solaris]] [[BBL]] league.

==History==
'''Anna Hung''' was born in [[Solaris City]], to be precise in [[Cathay]], and has been around 'Mechs her entire life.<ref name="RedJiansp4c">''Stable Report: Red Jians'', p. 4: "Anna Hung"</ref> After a technician's apprenticeship with the now-defunct [[Golden Lions Stables]], she drifted through several stables until she joined the Red Jians.<ref name="SRD">''The Season at Rankar's Deep''</ref>

Anne Hung was an eight-year veteran of the league, all of them with Red Jians Stables. After MechWarrior training, she made her debut in the Branson Brewery League's '62-'63 season. She compiled a 17-6-7 record, finishing third in the Class Two division, thirteenth in the overall standings, and winning the BBL’s Rookie of the Year title. After two seasons, Hung moved to Class Three for the '64-'65 season and given the ''Vindicator'' she still pilots today. She won the Class Three title three times in the next five seasons.<ref name="SRD"/> She's the best-known BBL gladiator and her marksmanship with the [[PPC]] is legendary. She has fought a few matches in [[Solaris City]], but considers [[Rankar's Deep]] her home arena. Hung is a quiet woman with no expressed political views, preferring to let her actions in the Deep do her talking.<ref name="RedJiansp4c"/>

During the [[WoB]] invasion, she was part of the local [[SHDL]] force. Afterwards, she did some dueling in several minor venues, but mostly concentrated on her family and the Red Jians stable, so she decided to return to the arena when the BBL went back to the stage in [[3086]].<ref name="SRD"/>

She did participate in the 3086 Championship.

In her first match she won against [[Hiroyuki Hojo]].<ref name="SRDw2">''The Season at Rankar's Deep'': "Week 2"</ref>

She won her second match and was leading the Class Three Division.<ref name="SRDw2"/>

Prior to week six, she had the only perfect record in the League and was leading the Class Three Division.<ref name="SRDw6"/>

In week six, she was matched against [[Soren Murphy]], this was the first spotlight match of the week. The match started with a few long-range exchanges, each feeling out the other. After that, Hung began getting the better of the combat, using the combination of her ''Vindicator''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[PPC]] and [[LRM]]s to counter Murphy's sole long-range weapon, the [[ER PPC]] of his ''[[Clint]]-3U''. But then, Murphy got in a lucky shot that mangled Hung's LRM launcher and swung things back to a more even keel. From there, it was fast-moving and quick-shooting until time expired, resulting in a hard-fought draw. This was her first fight not ending in a victory.<ref name="SRDw6">''The Season at Rankar's Deep'': "Week 6"</ref>

That draw did not stop her, and she indeed continued winning, and prior to week ten she was the only unbeaten [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]] in any of the divisions, the hard-fought draw with Soren Murphy her only non-win in the 3086 championship. [[Tyrone Dyhr]] was four points behind Hung and trying to keep the gap from getting wider.<ref name="SRDw10">''The Season at Rankar's Deep'': "Week 10"</ref>

For her tenth match she was paired against [[Wan-Choi Cole]]. Hung stayed cool throughout the match, using her ''Vindicator''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[LRM]]/[[PPC]] combo to keep Cole on the defensive and wear him down. With only ten minutes left, Cole decided to gamble and launched a [[Death From Above]] against Hung. Hung waited until Cole reached the jump's apex and pounded him with everything she had, punching through his weakened armor, ripping the [[gyro]] apart and destroying two [[Jump Jets]]. Cole's ''[[Tsunami (BattleMech)|Tsunami]]'' slammed to the ground, and officials gave Hung the victory. Cole was stunned, but okay.<ref name="SRDw10"/>

After week twelve, in Class Three Division standings, Anne Hung has continued her near perfect season, going 11-0-1 with 34 points and opening up a seven-point lead over Tyrone Dyhr. [[Chris Rogers]], Hiroyuki Hojo, and [[Eveline Wilson]] each have 21 points, which puts them a distant third, six points behind Dyhr.<ref name="SRDwBBLS">''The Season at Rankar's Deep'': "Branson Brewery League Standings"</ref>

In week fourteen he was to fight again against Soren Murphy. The action was fast and furious from the start, but Hung scored the first telling hit, damaging one of the ''Clint''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[jump jet]]s in the tenth minute. Three minutes later, she damaged another of Murphy's jump jets. Robbed of his jump advantage, Murphy tried using his ground speed, but Hung patiently wore him down, concentrating on the Clint's legs. The end came when Hung destroyed both her opponent's legs, ending the match and avenging her only no-win of the
season.<ref name="SRDw14">''The Season at Rankar's Deep'': "Week 14"</ref>

Her string of victories continued until week fifteen. Paired against [[John Manhiem]] from [[Stone Fists Stables]] (ranked sixth, eighteen points behind Hung). Manhiem's ''[[Griffin]]'' had advantages in weight, speed, and larger missile launcher compared to Hung's ''Vindicator''. From the start, Hung was clearly off her game. Her shots were inaccurate, unlike her usually meticulous shooting. Wary of a trap, Manhiem stayed at medium-long range, trading armor loss for better shots. Hung's shooting did improve, but by the time it did, she was in serious trouble. Though she damaged the Griffin's right hip actuator with her PPC, Manhiem's return fire found the holes and shattered both the right leg and torso, which dropped the ''Vindicator''. Despite the loss, she was still ten points ahead of Tyrone Dyhr, whose forfeit match cost him a chance to close the gap.<ref name="SRDw15">''The Season at Rankar's Deep'': "Week 15"</ref>

She won one match and lost another after that. Then, to everybody's surprise, she was hospitalized complaining of weakness and was taken to the local hospital. Nobody knew what she was suffering from, foul play was suspected.<ref name="SRDNI">''The Season at Rankar's Deep'': "News Items"</ref>

Two weeks to end the year, the Class Three Division standings had Anna Hung with 49 points, followed by [[Eveline Wilson]] with 45 points and with third being [[John Manhiem]] who had 37 points.
