Operation 3, Mission 3[edit]

BRIEFING[edit]

Sorenson: We have no probe data for this area, only this space shot. Go ahead, Alan.

Alan Mattila: My pod was the last out of the Black Hammer. I came to ground very near where the DropShip finally crashed, about here, I figure, at Op Point Able. No other survivors, long range comms completely shot, no support vehicles, no way to make ammo reloads, even. All I could do is wait and hope someone came looking. Yesterday, the Jags came through in heavy force and found the Hammer. I had to fade or be discovered. Been playing hide and seek ever since.

Sorenson: The Smoke Jaguars are certainly stripping the Black Hammer for themselves. I’ll bet you that convoy Keith Andrew noticed was heading out to pick up the salvage.

Alan Mattila: Keith made it? How close? Can he drop some of those artillery missiles of his on the convoy for us?

Dominic “Gunner” Paine: Tech check, Alan. None of us are outfitted with a TAG spotting laser. Without it, Keith is about as accurate as the Field Base in predicting Clanner moves. No offense.

Sorenson: None taken, Gunner. I appreciate the vote of confidence.

Alan Mattila: There’s TAG equipment aboard the Black Hammer.

Sorenson: There you go, that’ll do just nicely. Okay, we’ve got Op Point Able plotted, but this is all a guesswork and a plan-as-you-go deal.

DURING MISSION[edit]

Alan Mattila: Hammer’s dead ahead.

Sorenson: I’m reading enemy contacts, Lance Leader, but no salvage convoy. We might be too late.

Male Jaguar: The Freeborns are here, Star Commander.

Star Commander Sheryl: Protect the DropShip! Regroup!

Star Commander Hunter: Star Commander Sheryl, say again? Sheryl, this is Star Commander Hunter, respond!

Star Commander Sheryl: Eject!

Male Jaguar: Star Commander? Star Commander!

Sorenson: That wraps up the battle. Nice work, Lance Leader.

Star Commander Hunter: No contact with Star Commander Sheryl or any of her forces. Omegas three through five, drop back and recon. Laura and I will follow. Convoy, you are on your own. Proceed as ordered.

Sorenson: Damn!

Dominic “Gunner” Paine: You were saying?

Epona Rhi: Spoke a little early, didn’t we?

Male Jaguar: Enemy forces in control of DropShip. We are committed to battle, Star Commander!

Male Jaguar: Not today, Freebirth!

Male Jaguar: No!

Sorenson: Nice work!

AFTERMATH[edit]

Sorenson: The Jaguars removed a great deal of salvage from the Black Hammer, but at least one convoy should still be within our striking range.

Sorenson: Reports from the Eclipse say that they’re down two warriors already, and Galaxy Commander Corbett is pressuring them relentlessly.

Sorenson: Lance Leader, we need to get this salvage, or, at least, deny it to the Jaguars. If the Clan fields many more warriors out of Durgen City, the rescue team will go down, and we’ll be cut off.
