Horde Lance
The Horde Lance is a specialized Formation, a variation on the Striker/Cavalry Lance Formation.[1]
Overview[edit]
Prominently envisioned and promoted by early 31st century Tai-i Mercer Ravannion (who is - somewhat dubiously - credited with having invented this tactic), various others throughout the year have sought to improve on the doctrine, Tai-i Marge Sippers among them. The doctrine calls for a large number, five to ten, of Bug 'Mechs (i.e. the very lightest, cheapest, and/or most common units available) to swarm and overwhelm larger units.[1]
Notes[edit]
Swarm formation rules can be found on page 66 of Campaign Operations[1] and page 86 of Combat Manual: Kurita[2]
