A local government contractor who has stolen secrets and is trying to sell the
information to us, she is currently trying to leave the planet and is making her way
to a space port. We have a heavily armored convoy vehicle that has pisces up the
informant and must travel from a safehouse to an orbital shuttle launch pad 30
kilometers away.
Intelligence suggests a mercenary lance has been hired to intercept the convoy. If
the convoy is delayed we may not have another chance to get her off planet.
Your lance is assigned to escort the informant safely to the shuttle pad.
Expect enemy resistance within the last five kilometers to the launch sight.
Escort team has 6500 BV to build a lance from an IS Civil War Faction as well as the armored
transport which will be attached. Should the transport be disabled a ‘mech can pick up the
informant assuming it has a hand by ending the turn in the hex with the informant. A mech
carrying the informant may not fire weapons in that hand or use it in melee, a mech carrying an
informant may only walk. If the ‘mech falls, the informant is dropped in that hex. The transport
may only travel by road.
Scoring
● Get the informant off the far edge of the map and the escort team wins
● If the informant is on the map on turn 10 go to scoring
