Coils around the Nest - Trials of Possession
The treacherous Vipers had landed and were establishing quite a sizable landhold with several successful Trials. My Star was engaged in such a Trial and I had no intention to see the Steel Vipers expand their landhold again, not while I could breathe and fight.
-- Clan Snow Raven Mechwarrior.
BATTLEFIELD
The battle occurred on terrain with a mixture of light and heavy woods, with rolling hills and neither water or structures anywhere in sight.
ATTACKER
The Attacker consisted of a Front Line Star and Nova of the 2nd Viper Guards, Alpha Galaxy of Clan Steel Viper. The Attacker may enter from either of the short map edges, if the map sides are of equal length, then any map edge may be chosen. This edge is to be considered their home edge.
DEFENDER
The Defender consisted of a Second Line Star and Nova from the 2nd Raven Phalanx, Delta Garrison Galaxy of Clan Snow Raven. The Defender’s home edge is considered the edge opposite the Attacker’s starting edge. This is also their starting edge.
OBJECTIVES
The objective for either side is simple – Destroy all units or Hegira may be offered if it is determined that continuing the conflict is hopeless for one side and defeat is inevitable. Hegira cannot be offered by the winning side until at least one ‘Mech has been destroyed on the side that the offer is being extended to.
SCORING
The side that holds the field at the end of the scenario wins. If neither side has any remaining functional units, it is considered a draw with the Trial itself unresolved.
CAMPAIGN LINKING
Dangerous Nests with the following effects:
- If the Steel Vipers win, the Agent in charge removes one unit from the Snow Raven’s forces in the main scenario and adds it to the Steel Vipers forces.
- If the Snow Ravens win, the Agent in charge removes one unit from the Snow Raven’s forces in the main scenario and adds it to the Snow Ravens forces.
- If either side asks and receives Hegira, the Agent in charge chooses one surviving unit from the side that received Hegira and that unit is added to the forces involved in the main scenario.
AFTERMATH
Numerous Trials were fought as Clan Steel Viper tried to establish a landhold on Lum.
Both Clans won and lost several of these battles. It was a testament to both sides of their skill\ and determination to achieve victory. Many warriors earned honor and respect throughout these conflicts, honing their skills in battle.
