==Hesperus II== [[Hesperus II]] is the home of [[Defiance Industries]], whose factories have been producing ‘Mechs since the age of the [[Star League]]. Its mountainous landscape has been burnt and scored by savage fighting for control of the factory complex. The [[Gray Death Legion]] has recently finished a very costly campaign to keep the facilities in [[Lyran Alliance|Lyran]] hands. ==Escort== ===BRIEFING=== Defend a munitions convoy on its route between Defiance Industries and its rendezvous with spaceport security forces. The recent incursions by [[Free Skye|Skye]] separatists have left behind many guerrilla forces to sabotage such efforts. Maintain a speed of at least 70 KPH to keep pace with the convoy. '''Castle:''' The convoy is traveling along a treacherous stretch of highway leading away from Defiance Industries. The tight quarters will reduce the effectiveness of deploying both lances. I suggest you plan for a single lance and try to keep your speeds in the 70 to 80 kilometer per hour range. ===DURING MISSION=== '''Spectre:''' Approaching security force rendezvous. Two kilometers. '''Convoy:''' Copy that. Thanks for the escort, Spectre. '''Spectre:''' Well, we ain’t there yet. Let’s get clear before we go spending our vouchers. '''Convoy:''' Pleasure traveling with any Gray Death Legionaries. We wouldn't be here without you folks. ''[If SPONSOR UNIT is the Gray Death Legion]'' '''Spectre:''' Sorry we weren't here when the Legion got hit full on. We lost some good people. '''Convoy:''' Aye Commander, we all did. It's good to have the Legion with us again. '''Convoy:''' Speak of the devil. Cold start, eight hundred meters dead ahead! '''Spectre:''' Got him! Look sharp, Spectre Lance. '''Castle:''' Spectre One, be advised, I show two more ‘Mechs moving up from your rear. '''Hannibal:''' Action rear! They’re behind us! '''Spectre:''' Affirmative. Okay, people, we’ll keep this convoy rolling. We gotta clear these Navs in a hurry. Spectre taking point. '''Convoy:''' Convoy at Alpha. Getting a little crowded around here. '''Convoy:''' Convoy at bridge. Holding for escort. '''Convoy:''' They blew the bridge. We may have to head back. '''Spectre:''' Negative, we’ll take the long way around. Castle, plot us a new route, pronto. '''Castle:''' Already working on it, sir. There, uploading detour Nav Point Zeta. Continue on to Beta, and you’re back on course. '''Spectre:''' Good work, Castle. You’re a life saver. '''Convoy:''' More bandits at Zeta. A jumper and some light armor. We need cover! '''Spectre:''' Roger. Moving to engage. '''Spectre:''' Bandits at Zeta are clear. '''Hannibal:''' [[Demolisher]]s!! '''Castle:''' I show multiple contacts coming in off that lake. Watch yourselves. '''Spectre:''' Copy that. Moving to engage enemies at Beta. These guys sure do want that convoy. Must be running low on expendables. '''Convoy:''' Convoy at Gamma. Looks like we made it, Spectre. Thanks again. '''Spectre:''' You’re welcome, Convoy. The spaceport security force will see you in the rest of the way. ===AFTERMATH=== '''Castle:''' Defiance Industries is very pleased with our mission performance, sir. We have early reports that units loyal to [[Victor Steiner-Davion|Victor]] are moving on planet, and are likely mounting guerrilla strikes against Defiance holdings. Soon, I expect we’ll find ourselves locked in with one side or the other in this war.
